Paper- Saving Campaign
Assured of Success
'PODAY marks the opening of tho
lied Cross pnper-snviriK cam
paign, which was orRanizcd and
popularized liy tho Kvbning Ledger.
The first collection today will
result in the delivery of several
hundred pounds of waste paper,
which has been leportod by every
section of the city.
Already the campaiKii is a liijr suc
cess from the standpoint of the
amount of paper collected.
The success of the opening cam
paign is largely due to the excellent
co-operation of Philadelphia truck
concerns, which have furnished
trucks for the greater part of the
collecting.
Hoy Scouts alpo are helping. The
Scout's bugling will also help to
spread word of the campaign as
there is a bugler with each truck and
each automobile.
This is tho first collection, but not
the last. You arc urged to keep
right on collecting paper and to urge
others to enter into the campaign
in earnest. It is a campaign which
will be kept going right on through
the war.
Today luniks tlio opening of tho city
wide paper-saving canpalgn
In every section of the city motor trucks
antl automobiles are working energetically
collecting thou.Minlj ( puiiiida which have
been saved bv loyal citizen-.
The ring or bugle calls Is sounding the
beginning of the big event Theie I n
bugling Boy Scout with rvers automobile
and automobile truck to announce the ar
rival of the phlrle for collecting the waste
paper. The pound of the bugle Is tarrying
the message of the campaign to many who
havo not previously learned that such Im
portant things wem tip and do I up.
The IIvksincj l.srxicn and Hed Cross are
deeply Indebted to several leading auto
mobllo , truck manufacture! s. sales and
ervlce organizations for the success of the
opening of the campaign. The truck men
have pmved themselves inoic than worths'
of the reputation they have for geniroslts
In all public-spirited movements
isi:adv rk.si'o.wsi:
When It seemed that there would be dif
flculty In getting enough automobiles to
collect the paper which had been reported,
a. representative of the KvcstNO I.kpcif.u
got In tourh with several truck concerns
and the response was almost unanimous.
Among the truck companies which aie
co-operatlug In the movement are
Vim Jlotor Truck r'onipanj . Twents -tliliU

In addition to the automobiles pievlously
reported, V A. Taylor. 32."S Walnut street,

of 2J5 Pelham htreet, (iennautown, will use
Ids machine to collect the paper in Oermnn
tovvn some time early In the week The only
other district In which there will be no col
lection this afternoon Is the chestnut Hill
district Paper In thU district will be col
lected winio time during the coming week
S.MAI.l. SACP.lKin:
While tin- automobile truck firms of the
City bae In en mole than genetous in their
response for the opening collection todav
they cannot be expected to respond every
week. While this is some sacrifice for own
ers' of automobiles, It is certainly not ajilg
ono when the cause for which It Is being
mado Is considered. There must bo more
motorcars for future collection. We appeal
Rtrongly to the pattiotlsm of oh nets to as
sist In this movement.
While the first collection of paper is being
made today, this will not be tho last one by
nny means. It Is fulls cvpected that each
one will be bigger than tho previous one,
for thin Is a cause In which every pet son
will tako an interest as rapidly as word of
It spreads.
Kvery person la uigeil to save paper and
to spread word relative to the Tied Cross
paper-saving campaign, for the money
which can be made from this source can be
run Into hundreds of dollars every week.
This money Is urgently needed to insure
medical attention for the voting men who
will pooii be fighting on Kuropeau battle
fields. FOUR U-BOAT SURVIVORS

NT.KDS OK WAR
This has been accomplished sun e the
Issuing of the ?oods Roads Day proclama
tion. When war came, the people did
not wait for "(Joorl Roads Day" Thcv
made It a "good roads spring." with every
day a good roads day. These splendid
lesults have been brought about by hard
work and efficient, patriotic co-operation
among all road officials, every one of whom
recognized ful'y his respinsiblllly He Is
on duty every clay, when called upon ho
will be found at his post ready to meet to
the full measure of his ability any ej
traordlnary demands of war The people
have responded to the call In advance of
the clay appointed. They know the Im
poitance of gooil roads, and every clay is
now a "good roads day "
The full purpose of the proclamation
having been achieved In advance of the
appointed das. the citizens of the Com
monwealth are ready to turn to more
pressing matters of preparedness. Their
,oalty to their Commonwealth and their
civic pride would cause thourands to
leave their usual occupations in order to
devote the day to road work, when un
expected developments of the last two
months have made It more essential that
the energies of the whole peoplo be turned
Into channels of greater necessities.
KCiOD ISSl'B PARAMOUNT
As has been icpeatedly emphasized in
the public press, the food problem Is the
paramount one at the present time. The
countrs- does not tealle the seriousness
of the situation confronting us. The
people do not as jet understand that tho
success of the I'ulteil States In tho war
Just entered upon depends as much upon
food as It does upon munitions, If vic
tory Is to come to us without untold suf
feilng to our people, they must be taught
at once the' necessity of growing greater
ci ops This must be brought homo to
them by a climax that will arouse them
to Instant action How better could this
be done than bv having a 'I'arm Day"?
Since time is so prei lous Just now. It Is
pmbablo that all parties In interest would
be willing as a patriotic, duty to substitute
for Hood Roads Ita . on May SI, a 'Farm
and Uaiden Da J."
What is more fitting than the setting
apart of this day for everybody to leave
his usual occupation and tuin his energies
to farming or gardening? Raising corn
and beans nnd potatoes u preparedness,
It is tho kind of prepaiedness that cannot
be bought. It Is a preparedness that takes
time and a supreme trurt In Providence. It
Is the piep.uednesK that will win the war.
Therefore, I. Martin drove llrumbaugh,
fiovernor of this Commonwealth do herebj
designate and set apart
THCUSDAY, MAY 24. 1017

When the Canadians
Captured Vimy Ridge
rN MONDAY the Evening Ledger
will publish two pages of pictures
showing the capture of Vimy Ridge
by the Canadians. The photographs
reveal in intimate detail actual scenes
of the famous engagement the
Canadians advancing under fire;
machine gunners digging themselves
in; bringing in German prisoners,
and a collecting station for the
Canadian wounded.
Warfare's horror and the amaz
ing hardships Canada's soldiers have
faced so bravely are revealed more
clearly in these photographs than in
any other illustrations passed by the
