gave his noted lecture, "It's a Mans
job" Sunday evening. This certain.

in not only Holt county, but the

heard this splendid lecture. Mr..
Williams said In part: women are
in the work with their whole heart
and soul. It's the MEN who ! want
TO enlist. Men have been singing,

Less than Ia per cent Of the 2,aN
