The colors of our order, 9

The banner round which we rally,
The flag for me and you.
The emblem OF our country,
All Artisans unite,
In a tribute to our c6lors,
The Red, the Blue, the White.
When from over the ocean,
There sounded call of woe,
Out from this assembly,
Seven men were first to go.
At the first call of the bugle,
Each left his work with cheer,
And at the call for Reyielle,
Each man answered "here."
AS each night we here assemble,
Our duties to perform,
Let us ask our heavenly Father,
To keep our soldier boys from harm.
And up beside that banner,
They love and are serving SO well,
Let this service flag unfurl.
And its stars their story tell.
AS we salute our colors,
Thankful we need not roam,
Let us pay silent tribute,
To our boys away from home.

Sheriff Needham few days ago at
tached team Of horses in order to en-
force the collection of taxes which for
three years had not been paid. The
tax tdaled $ll4,35 and as the owner
of the team came forward and paid the
tax the sale advertised did not take
place. The sheriff realizes it is a
drastic proceeding, but he has no choice
in the matter as the law compels him
to take such steps as are necessary to
collect all taxes. In the case men
toned the extra cost was about SIS,
most of which was due to the feeding
