names of men who would be interested
in attending the citizenship classes ~

This surprising fact does credit 10

LOCAL COMMENT

The desire of the civil war veterans
for memorial to their services Is a
Very natural one. Most OF us wish to
leave something behind us that shall
call attention to such services as we
have been able to accomplish, and that
shall remind those who come after us
that we who have passed served well
in our time. The service of the vet
Grams was mighty one. 1t is written
in the history of the country, carved
immutably on the development of the
empire which has grown up and
spread to the farther ocean since the
great war. The decision as to whether
or not Marshall county shall build a
memorial monument to the service and
accomplishments of the COS Is up to
the voters of the county. 1t is theirs
to assent or refuse, and properly So
About all that can be asked is that the
voters shall give the appeal Of the vet
Grams thoughtful and sincere consider
alton and vote upon the proposition as
their good judgment shall dictate.

The charity association was pleased
with the response to its bundle day
appeal, and calls attention of the char
liable public to the prospect of greater
need of such articles this winter than
usual, hoping that those who were
neglected. or forgetful will look over
the closets and the attics for warm
clothing that has been cast aside. 1t
is to be expected that with prices OF
food and coal rising as they are
many families will find their hands full
supplying the bins and the kitchens,
and that overcoats, clothing of all
kinds for men and women, and espec-
tally for children. will be needed more
than in season when other necessaries
are easier to get. Go over the house
if you haven't. If YOU have go over it
again. See if there isn't something
useful that may be passed ON to the
less fortunate.
Marshalltown is a pretty good town.
The gross sum that Marshalltown con-
tributes to the railways entering the
city for freights and passenger rates
aggregates an astonishing sum. More

selves and the city. So it would APP
