Two DUTIES OF AN AMERICAN

I bclieve-and | summon you to
show your belief in the same thing
that it is the duty of every Amer-

his businss and out of it, to think
not first of himself or of any inter
est which he may be called upon to
sacrifice, but of the country which
he rves.-President Wilson.

Marshall &. House left the first
of the week to accept position
with the Santa Fe company at
some eastern point. For the past
ten or twelve years Mr.. House, has
been Marshall of our little city and
enjoys the distinction Of being one
of the best officers the town ever
had. He was always stern in duty
and yet his heart was touched with
that tenderness of feeling for fel-
low-creature and he has helped
many over the rough places of life
When the town of Holly was not
as tame as it is today-when it took
a man of nerve to serve the city
he was the man of the hour. He has
been ded on number of Oc-
casiOns while upholding the dig
nifty of our city and will carry the
rest of his life several knife and bull
let wounds, but he always came up
smiling and was always at the
city's service when he was needed.
He has given the best years of his
life to the towns advancement and
it is with sincere regret that we-as
a people-see him leave, but all join
in wishing him abundant success
no matter where he may 60. The
