Observe The Day

1t is fitting that those who fought
to protect the unity of the nation and
bequeathed to us their children and in
dividual kingdom should be remember
ed.
As citizensi it becomes US to review the
struggles, hours of suffering, bloodshed,
sickness and death that it cost. Through
out this country there still remains
some of those brave boys of the sixties.
Decoration Day is their day. Many
more have closed their eyes to time
only to open them upon eternity. Their
bodies rest in cemeteries. What
beautiful thing can we do than to visit
these sacred places and in honored re-
membrance leave flowers which shall
say in unmistakable languages, ''These
shall never be forgotten"
The day shall be fully observed in
Wasbhum. Suitable exercises will be
rendered in the opera house in the fore
noon and the cemetery will be visited
in the afternoon. We would extend q
most cordial invitation to all old soldiers
living in different parts of the county
to join with US May 3Oth. Come to-
gether once more and renew your years
and multiply your joys. Washburn
bids you welcome.

Mr.. Davis feels very encouraged with
the prospects and it now looks as
though the fight is sitting down to Nor

candidates with most of the voters.
They will undoubtedly be the first and
second choice of the people.
