Our Regard for Small De
tails Means Perfect Pre
scription Service.
Perfection in anything is made up of
regard for many small details. Our
prescription service includes care in
every detail that can add to its com
pleteness. An example will illustrate this: When
a prescription is brought to us to bo
refilled we use a new bottle, label and
cork. It goes to you not only attrac
tive in appearance, but in every detail
it is precisely as it was at its first
compounding. '
Carelessness in minor details often
leads to more serious neglect so we
tolerate no step in that direction.
All prescription work at our store is
conducted with skill and care.
Notwithstanding the superior character
of our service, prices on prescriptions
are always reasonable.

A WAR PRAYER
By James Waterman Wice of
the Vigilantes.
Father, we beseech thee
Guard our hoy tonight.
Keep, we pray, their footsteps
On the paths of right.
We have sent them gladly.
For the light Is Just,
Yea. their cause Is holy,
Glorious their trust.
Hold their fates, O Father,
111 thy wondrous band,
Hrlng them back, If may be,
Hack to grace our land.
For we loved them dearly
Hut our pe.th was clear;
Honor bade us send Iheui,
Father, be thou near!
But if they must leave us,
If it lie thy will,
Father, wo implore thee.
Guide and guard them still.
