LETTER FROM GLASGOW
BOY AT BATTLE FRONT
George c. Hall Tells of Life
Among the Soldier Boys
Fighting for Democracy.

The following letter was received
this week by the Courier and gives a
fair idea as to how the boys are far
ing on the battle front:
Dear Sir
l am writing this yetter to YOU as
l am a Glasgow boy and am now OF.
the front in active service. / thought
it would be of interest to you and my
know that they have one Glasgow boy
at the front in active service. I haze
been on the front about three weeks
and it is very hard thing to get
supplies from the rail head to the
boys on the line and our trucks are
on the go all the time, both day and
night, trying to get supplies to the
men.
When first came out on the front
l was very much interested in the roar
of the big guns but that feeling soon
leaves a man when he hears them a
little while and begins to realize what
damage they do when they land.
The following will give you an idea
of what we get to eat which shows
we are being taken care of pretty
we'll:
Breakfast-Steak, hot biscuits,
fried potatoes. coffee, bread and syrup.
Dinner-Meat loaf, mash potatoes,
brown gravy, coffee, bread, bread pud-
ding.
Supper-Hot bake beans, salmon
salad, coffee and bread

A PROCLAMATION.

"A PKOCLAMAIlON.
The Importance of the improvement
of the public highways Of the state,
and their part in the development of
our great commonwealth, has caused
the governor to designate Tuesday,
June 18, 1918 as Good Roads day.
In keeping with the spirit Of this
proclamation, and the fact that the
funds available from our road fund are
inadequate to meet the requirements
of our rapidly developing county, and
appreciating the liberal and patriotic
manner in which our citizens have in
dicated their willingness to contribute
their time and money.
We, The Board of County Commits
sioners of Valley County, Montana,
call upon the people of Valley County
to refrain from their regular and usual
occupations on that day, and con-
tribute of their time, labor, money or
material to the improvement of our
highways, and to the end that the
good roads movement may be of ma
terial and lasting benefit.

WAR SAVING CAMPAIGN
MAKING GREAT PROGRESS
COUNTY DIRECTOR G. D. ARNOT HAS FORCES
THOROUGHLY ORGANIZED-BRITISH ARMY
OFFICER STIRS PEOPLE TO REALIZATION
OF WAR BY THRILLING ADDRESS,

The War Savings campaign which
ends in Valley county June % was CIV
en- strong impetus Wednesday after
noon when the merchants of the city
of Glasgow closed their places of
business in the afternoon and assem-
bled with hundreds of the citizens of
the city to hear an address on the
real situation of the war by Lieuten-
ant F. A. Reeves Of the British army.
The park in front of the court house
was packed with an audience which
listened for two hours most intently
to the detailed account of the per-
|sonal experiences of Lieutenant Reeves
while engaged in keeping back the
blood-thirsty forces of the beast of
Berlin in their wanton drive on Paris.
Lieutenant Reeves made wonder
full stirring address, and simply car
ried his audience with him. His des-
criptions Of the various battles in
which he took part while in Flanders
were most realistic and thrilling. The
lieutenant spenet two years and eight
months on the western front during
which time he was wounded twice. He
came to the United States as a ma
chine gun instructor, but being a fluent
speaker, the treasury department Sc
cured his services for the third Liberty
loan and the Red Cross drive on
speaking tours in Kentucky and North
Dakota. The lieutenant is profoundly
impressed with the wonderful spirit
of patriotism shown by the Montana
people.
After the demonstration at the
court house a banquet was held at the
Model cafe at p. m. where Lieutenant
Reeves was the guest of honor. j.
w. Wedum was POSTMASTER and a
short address was made by Lieutenant
Reeves in which he spoke of the Won
derful courtesy that has been extended
to him during his tour of Montana
and he spoke most specifically of the
entertainment shown him in Glasgow
and Valley county.
Assistant State Director r. H. Flint
also made an address and told of what
was expected of Valley county in the
present drive. A number of other
speakers made addresses appropriate
to the occasion and large number of
women were present and evinced their
great interest in the campaign.
After the banquet County Direc-

DR.. GARDNER DELIVERS
INTERESTING LECTURE
Large Crowd Assembled at Court
House Square Thursday Night
to Greet Speaker.

The patriotic sentiments of the peo-
pie of Glasgow and Valley county who
went to hear DR.. H. C. Gardiner lee
ture at the court house last night, were
aroused to new life and activity. The
subject of the address was "Conditions
tions in world at war;" and every
one who heard DR.. Gardiner was given
new point of view that will assist
in directing efforts that will help to
win the war.
A large part of the lecture was de-
voted to an impressive demOnstra-
tion of the fact that every citizen
man, woman or child-who claims to-
be an American is taking part in the
war, and is as much a soldier as the
men in the trenches. The men on the
firing line cannot remain there un-
less they are backed up by the folks
at home. The soldier boys must be
supplied with food, with weapons and
ammunition with airplanes and other
war material, and ships must be fur
nished in which to transport the fight
ing me nand immense quantities Of
supplies to the war zone. 1t is up to
the American people, individually and
collectively, to provide this food, war
material and accessories, and in per-
forming this duty they become "sol-
diers" in broad Interpretation of
that term.
The necessity of preventing waste
Of food, and the great result that can
be accomplished by cooperative effort
in that direction were instructively de.
monstrated by the speaker. The saw
ing men and immense quantities of
an individual may appear to be very
small matter, but if 10O,0O0,OOO peo-
pie regularly practice that saving
every day in the year the total result
will be an enormous help toward solv-
ing the food problem.
DR.. Gardiner protested that the slo-
gan snake the world safe for democ-
racy" does not fittingly express the
purpose of the war. We are fighting
for self-preservation, to defend our
rights and our freedom, to save our
selves from an enslavement that has
resulted from German domination in
Belgium and other unfortunate, coun-
tries.
The most vociferous applause of
the evening greeted the speakers de-
claration that legislation against sedi-
ton should provide penalty that fits
the crime. The audience was heartily
in accord with Dr. Gardiner in the
opinion that any man who commits
seditious act should be placed
against the wall in front of firing
squad, and that any person who in
dulges in seditious remarks should be
interned until the end of the war, and
later transported to the country he
holds in greatest esteem and affection.

visiting Butte last week. Mr.. Arnot's
county organization has been holding
meetings and is ready and anxious to
act. Assistant State Director Flint is
in Glasgow assisting in organization
work. Mr.. Arnot says that he is going
to quit his business and devote his en-
tire time to the War Savings drive.
On June % everyone in Glasgow and
Valley county will be required to reg

and will be asked to do their indi-
vidual parts in the campaign.

and be counted" said Director Arnot,
"Uncle Sam wants to know all the
loyal ones, so he has set June 28th as
a day on which he proposes to find

the War Savings campaign as q
means of taking this vote, which, he
hopes, will be vote of confidence in
him and the war he is waging for the
worlds freedom, so on that day he is
going to have you stand up and be
counted. He expects you to put the
amount on a pledge card that he can
depend on you to loan him each month
for the balance of the year, and when
20 umake that promise he expects you
to keep it and he is going to send
some one around to see that you do
keep it or find out the reason why. He
is also going to have list prepared
on that day of the fellows who do not
stand up to be counted. Likewise he
wants to know all who are not at these
meetings to be counted and intends
to have second list prepared of
thsee. He wants to know all who are
not with him as we'll as those who are
with him. However, Uncle Sam does
not expect this class to be very large
so there will be plenty of loyal ones
to convince this small minority of the
error of their ways.
"Heed Uncle Sans call and be at
your local meeting on June 28th ready
to pledge the amount of money which
you can loan regularly each month to
Uncle Sam. Stand up and be counted
with the loyal ones, no matter how
small your monthly loan may be. Re-
member small amount each month
from a poor woman is just as worthy
showing as the $1,000 limit from a
