SH ARP COUNTY BOY
IS DEAD IN FRANCE
Father Receives Letter Stating Grave
Will Be Marked and Permanently
Located by British Forces.

Hardy, June 12.-In addition to the
recruits for the United States army,
Sharp county has contributed to the
Canadian army. W. H. Phillips has
received letter from Lieut.. L. J. Ber-
trand Of Company 4, Seventh Canadian
infantry, pertaining to the death and
burial of his son, Ira Phillips, who
was killed on battlefield in France,
in which he says:
"You have no doubt been informed
by this time of the death in action of
your SON, and l am writing you these
few lines to convey my deep sympathy
for you in your loss. Your son was in
my platoon and was very much liked
by me and all his comrades. He was
of fearless character and devoted to
duty and his loss is keenly felt by all
with whom he came in contact. His
death came by machine gun bullet
and was instantaneous. 1t may be
some small consolation to you to know
that he died for the great cause which
is now yours as well as ours.
"He was buried, together with some
officers and men, in a small cemetery
between Thilus and Ecmic, two small
villages around which there was heavy
fighting. At present there is one large
cross marking the cemetery, and as
soon as circumstances permit, individ-
ual crosses will be erected. The graves
commissioner will send you the exact
map location and a photograph of the
grave"

The Habit of Taking Cold

With many people taking cold is
habit, but fortunately one that is
easily broken. Take cold sponge
bath every morning when you first
get out of bed-not ice cold, but a
temperature of about 80 degrees F.
Also sleep with your windows up.
Do this and you will seldom take
cold. When you do take cold take
