MAY ACT--It is reported that
the Business Mems association
will take up the matter of the city
sending out of town for printing.
Most of the merchants are adverse
to the movement and will enter a
protest if such thing is attempted.
They claim that it will establish a
precedent that will undermine the
very foundation OF home trading,
and the merchants do not propose
to tolerate such a movement. They
claim that since the local printing
houses are only asking the city
the same prices as they do the
merchants, that the city should bs
perfectly willing to pay the price
and help keep up local prosperity.
The printeries all filed their bids
with the city clerk today, and even
it the printing is awarded to the
local firms they will have to dig
count the war. ants five per cent,
which really does not net them 30
much as check for the same
amount from a commercial insti.

SLEEP IN PEACE.

No matter the name--the uniform-the
regiment.
No matter whether death came in the
valley, on the hillside, or with the pity
ing hospital nurse beside him.
No matter whether the grave is in the
home cemetery, where mother. widow and
children have wept over 1t. or in the
cities OF the dead beyond the Potomac.
The headstone may bear his name and
the day of his death, or 1t may bear that
lonely legend given to so many thou
sand--"Uuknown."
1t is enough that he was soldier and
braved the death that was his.
For almost half century he has slun-
bered as only the dead can slumber. The
drum-beats Of war have not reached him,
and the tears of grief he has not felt.
Today we approach the spot with slow
step and uncovered head. We feel a rev.
erence for the dust beneath the grassy
mound, we lay out flags and flowers
on the turf and forgive our enemies and
wish for peace and good will over all the
earth.
At the last great day the known and
the unknown will spring into life again
to be judged by God, and 1t is with tears
in our eyes that each one Of US whispers
to himself:

mule. After we had been in service
two years we were having scrap with the
enemy one day, when all Of sudden Jim
jumps out Of the ranks and goes charging
down on 1900 men all alone. He was
yelled at to come back, but he didn't seem
to hear. Some of US got the idea that an
order had been given to advance, and we
took after Jim, and In a minute the whole
regiment was charging. 1t was such an
unexpected move that the enemy broke
and gigged back, and Jim was made a
sergeant for his bravery.
HE had been home year when he died.
I was called to his bedside when they
knew that he was going. The other folks
all left the room at his order, and then
he said to me:
Tom, do you remember that time ]
charged 5000 men all by myself?'
"'Of course, and it was a brave thing
to do
Nothing of the kind, Tom. Do you
know why l did itT
Out of bravery
That's all guff. I was scared out Of
my boots that day and bolted, and the
fun of the thing was that got all turned
around and bolted towards the enemy In
stead of our rear. Tom, I'm going to my
long home, and want you to kneel down
In the 'tater patch tomorrow and tell the
Lord Just how It was" JOE KERR.

He was a man Of thirty five, with a
soldiers belt on and sabre trailing from

through the crowd for ten minutes when
one-armed man of sixty caught hold Of
him and demanded:
''Here-who are you that is bouncing

I'm one of them that was right there"

You must have been pretty young at
