Hi General Earp has been calling for men for weeks. Ten men

i|| It isn't necessary to make a trip to Oklahoma City, Enid,
iji Ada or Tulsa in order to take the physical examination. Any

l+l wire Adjutant General Earp, Oklahoma City, collect, and he
will wire you transportation. Xo married men are wanted. The
guard calls for single men betwen 18 and 45. Patriotic citizens
in every county should help recruit the guard.

CHILDREN COME FIRST
Every family in Oklahoma must strive to produce its own
food, this and next year. Let nothing waste, and above all
else, save seed from the garden. If your radishes and spinach
and mustard and lettuce have more seed than you can use next
p| I year, gather it all anyway, or permit your less fortunate neigh-
fff bor to do it. It's a crime to waste anything now. Only slackers
ij| will do it. %

jS The Red Triangle, the sign of the Y. M. C. A., is already
sfe working among the lads at Ft. Sill. Those in charge will notify
fl| citizens through the Council soon just how each can help most.
Hit In the meantime those who send parcels of anv kind to the fort
must send them express prepaid.
PLANT FEED CROPS
Plant feed crops after grain if the condition of your land
will permit it at all. If you haven't teams or labor or seed to do
it, permit some of your neighbors to use the land. FEED AND
FOOD \\ ILL HELP WIN THE WAR. Patriotic citizens should
see to it that no land lies idle unnecessarilv.
