Idel’s remember there are 74,000
who will never again feel the cool,
sharp tang ot an autumn morning,

So far none of our boys in the U.S.
Army have been killed in action,

and here has been much bitter feeling
and back talk lately—such as street
dance and the disbanding of the
service club.

It would be far lietter to discuss
such matters more calmly, If th ?.v
want any project done, loo percent
cooperation,should lie given instead
of just sayng "Let George do it."
The fishing is pretty rotten. The.e
