It is a long list and probably a burden of expense to the news papers, but all of them in this county and most of them throughout the country have published the lists. A copy of these lists is posted in the County Court House. A "slack- CT" who has not registered adds that much more to the burden of those who promptly came toward at the Country's call in that they must come for ward in greater numbers be- cause the "slacker" has en- deavored to escape and let those loyal to the cause do duty for them.

THE MESSAGE OF THE FLAG

Unfur bright stripes, shine forth clear stars, Swing outward to the breeze; Go bear your message to the wilds Go tell it to the seas, That poor men sit within your shade And rich men in their pride That beggar boys and statesmen's Walk meath you side by side. You guard the school house the green, The church upon the hill, And fold your precioue blessings round The cabin by the Till. While weary hearts from every land, Beneath the shining sun, Find work and rest and home beneath The flag of Washington. Twas freedoms that gave you birth, And for this you stand An emblem dear to every heart In united land. This right when challenged by the foe, Our nation will maintain. We'll rally round the stars and stripes, ''Yes, rally once again. Millions of men and millions Stand ready to defend Our right to freedom of the seas, With none to apprehend And while we know lurking foe May hide beneath the wave, Our flag will lead as before, To conquer and to save.

Attention County Supervisors

The News respectfully calls the attention of the county supervisors to the condition of the bridge across the Cataract just north of town. The high waters this spring washed off the soil and cinders from the top of the cement bridge there leaving only the rocks placed there for filling, which make a painfully rough road bed, and are not a little dangerous. One ride across this will be suf- ficient to convince anyone that a little work is badly needed at this point.
