(sa kt if I hatft«n^eri*~with- *, ** out it\ * •* n —General Pershing. * On November 11 the American peo ple will start a one week's drive to raise the largest amount of money ever given outright by any people In the history of the world. The drive will be a new thing under the sun. For the first time Protes tants, Catholics and Jews, forgetting all their differences, will line up ghoul -der-to-shoulder,- welding their Individ ual organizations together In their common devotion to the boys In the cantonments and over there. This amalgamation of the seven great agen cies engaged In war work Is one of the fine developments which hnve been brought about by the war and tinder the wise guidance of President Wilson. The seven organizations which to gether will make this united appeal are the Y M. C. A, Y W C. A. Na tional Catholic War Council and K. of C, the Jewish Welfare Board, the War Camp Community Service, the American Library Association and the Salvation Army Each of them will need funds this Fall, each had planned a* separate campaign for support. Now, acting on the suggestion of the President's letter of September 5, the seven campaigns will be rolled Into one. The American people will be spared the burden of seven separate appeals, and the nation will have an opportunity to demonstrate splendidly that men and women of all creeds at home can work together, as men of all creeds over there are fighting and dying together Pr John R. Mott, whom President Wilson has spoken of as one of the ablest and most useful men of his gen eration, has been selected Director General of the drive. It Is Interesting to note that I)r Mntt's name WUB placed In nomination by Joun (1 Agar of the National Catholic War Council and seconded by Mortimer L. Sen Iff of the Jewish Welfare Board. The gen eral committee having the campaign In charge contains such well known names as Raymond B. Fosdlck. Chair man of the Commission on Training Camp Activities, George W Perkins. Chairman of the Finance Committee of the C 8 Steel rorporatlon, James F I'uelan of Hornblower and \\ eeks , Honorable Myron T Herrlck, former ambassador to France, Cleveland H Dodge, Oeorge Cordon Rattle. Mrs Henry P I)n\ Isoa ond Frank A \ an derlip, president of the National City Bank. In every city, county and Jpwn the campaign will be In charge of the big gest men of the community Together these seven organizations represent a work that Is staggering In Its proportions They have more than lfj.000 uniformed workers, standing shoulder to shoulder with the boys ev ery step of Ihe way from home to the front line trenches. Tbey operate more than 3.000 buildings and ship GOO tons of supplies to the boys In France ev ery week. Fifteen miles of film set sail for the other side each week un der their direction, and the regular weekly attendance of soldiers and sail ors at their motion picture shows Is more than 2,500.000. The Bibles fur nished to the boys since the war broke out would, if piled one on another, make n pile more than twenty miles high. \Morale.\ said Napoleon. \Is as oth. er factors In war as three to one.\ Iiy which he meant that one man who Is kept contented and happy Is belter than three men who are discouraged and homesick It Is the business of these seven great agencies to help maintain morale They are keeping up the fine fighting edge of our boys, and by their ministrations, helping to put added power Into our army and navy and so hasten the hour of victory When they will bring our boys home I gain. It Is predicted by national lenders tha» this great victory drive will \go irvcr the top\ In a larger way than any suapUgn that has preceded It, THE FREftdH LEADER MOST FEARED BY HUNS ' Krsnch Official Photograph.

Three-quarters of a ton of food Is required each year by an American soldier It Is nil the best that money can buy, and even with the rates the army obtains by buying la enormous quantities It costs a pretty penny Good red meat Is the mainatqy of the soldier's diet whenever It Is possi ble to furnish It to him. The army's allowance Is 47!> pounds of beef a >enr for every soldier Some of this, of course. Is canned beef, corned beef and canned hash, but as much as pos sible of It Is fresh meat. When It Is necessary to substitute bacon or pork the amount allowed Is 275 pounds. For a short time this summer the beef allowance was cut down, and bacon and pork were sub- stltuted until the shortage was re lieved, but as a rule the bacon and pork are only Incidentals. Potatoes, 458 pounds of them, and the finest white wheat flour 413 pounds, are the next greatest staples. Backing them up are 55 pounds of beans, '21 pounds of prunes. 27 pounds of coffee, 73 pounds of sugar, 7 pounds of syrup, 11H pounds of condensed milk, the same amount of butter, as much lard, 3V& pounds of vlnegnr and 13V4 pounds of salt In addition there are supplies of pepper and other condi ments, and Jam, preserves, etc.. on oc casion. The army system Is to allow a cer tain amount a day for a man. The latest figure on this ration allowance Is $.43. It varies from time to time, but at this rate It costs $150-05 a year for each soldier's food. The food Is purchased by the Quar termaster's Department tnd furnished to the company cooks at cost Each company orders supplies for a month at a time, basing its purchases on the number of men multiplied by the ra tion allowance for thirty days. If a mess sergeant can buy certain things In the open market for less than he would have to pay the Quartermaster he Is privileged to do so and to use the surplus money to buy delicacies or ex tra amounts of other staples. Liberty Bonds bought by the Inves tors of the nation provide the funds for the soldiers' food. There is more Catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other diseases put tog2th£r,° and for years it was supposed to be incur able. Doctors prescribed local rem edies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pro nounced it incurable. Catarrh is 4 local disease, greatly influenced by constitutional conditions <ana there fore requires constitutional treat ment. Hall's Catarrh' Medicine, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is a constitution al remedy, is taken internally and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System.

Al- though the seas have been beset by the eneniy, the loss of life in taking\ the men across has been almost ln- finitesimally small. This bit of Ameri can efficiency has not only surprised our enemies, we have surprised our friends and even ourselves. the railroads either It Is the Liberty Bond putchnsers who made it possible, and back of the pur< .isisers the Liberty Bond. If the people respond to the Fighting Fourth as they did to the First, Second and TnH-d, and there Is every Indication that they will, there Is no telling what other miracles may he accomplished.
