This town is full of young men
who have done nothing to aid their

way out of it, and the same applies
to many who are not subject to the

loafers and slackers.
Many of our people at home are
ever too ready to find fault, and they
do not give due credit to those who

must do all that is in our power for
our government and country. 1t is
only our duty, and we must do it.

MEETING IN VALLEY
Very Attractive Program Prepared
For First Band COncert-Five-
Minute Speeches by Several
Persons.

| Mr.. Martin w. Smith, who has
been in charge of the work of rails
| ing funds with which to rent quar-
! tiers, buy instruments and music for
/ the re-organizcd Citizens Band, has
arranged a splendid program for the
opening night The meeting will be
of the kind that is being held in the
various communities all over the
United States at this time; there is
hardly a section of the country that
is not, just now, holding such meet
ings, and they are working wonders
in bringing the people together in a
way that has never been known be-
fore.
The meeting tomorrow night will
be opened by the audience singing
The Star-Spangled Banner. After
this, there will be four or five five
minute speeches upon patriotic sub
iects Mrs. A. E. Zintl, of Philadel-
phia and Mrs. John E. Croft will
sing, and the band will render mum
Der of selections.
Spring street will be closed to au-
tomobiles; this will be done for two
purposes: in the first place to avoid
the parking on the street, which has
resulted in such congestion on High
street. and has also crowded Spring
street and prevented persons who
had to stand on the sidewalk from
being able to see. Also it will pre-
vent the speakers and musicians from
being disturbed by the cars starting
up and moving off. 1t is really sur
prising how many automobiles
there are who never hesitate to start
their cars, right in the midst of a
speech, or while someone is singing;
of course, they do not realize that
they are interrupting,th they only think
about getting out, and fail to think
that by doing so they are interfering
with everyone around them.
There is no doubt of the fact that
the meeting will be very popular
one. The band program will be pub
lished in thispaper tomorrow.

SIX YEAR-OLD BOY
:. BROWNS IN CREEK
Body of Audrey Nichols, son of Mr..
And Mrs. Lee HI. Nichols, Found
About = O'Clock This Afternoon.

About = O'Clock This Afternoon.
Audrey Nichols, the six year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Il. Nichols,
who reside on Locust street, was
drowned this r2orning at the foot Of
the bridge. on the East Cambridge
side. Details of the accident seem
very hard to obtain, but from what
we can learn, the little boy had been
playing with his little cousin, James
Bradley, of South Boston, Va, dur
ing the morning, and falling to re-
turn home at noon, his father called
his sister, Mrs. Jno. Bradley, the
mother of the little boy with whom
Audrey had been playing, and found
that her boy was home, but that
Audrey was not there, SO he became
alarmed and began to search for the
little fellow
At the foot of the bridge he dis
covered the wagon the boys had been
playing with, and instantly suspec-
ted the little fellow had accidentally
fallen overheard. A search was
made for the body, which resulted in
it's recovery beneath the row of the
boat belonging to Mr.. Alvin Cook,
by Messrs. Arthur Nichols, Alvin
Cook and Dawson Foxwell.
Just how the accident occurred
will probably never be known, as it
would seem that no one saw the
little fellow when he fell over or
heard any cutlery. 1t is thought that
the body had been in the water about
an hour and half when recovered.
The sympathy of the entire COM
munity goes out to Mr.. and Mrs.
Nichols at this time.

ANY MAN TO ANY MAN
By GERALD STANLEY LEE

DO not know how other men feel about il, but ! find
il hard with all that is happening to the world today
to look small boy in the face.
When small boy looks t1lsney up 10 me and
see his world = the world he thinks he is going to
have in his eyes, am afraid.
The look in his eyes OF The world he thinks he is
going TO have cuts me 10 the quick
have always fell had understanding with
small boy before
But the last four years when he looks at me in that
old way and think OF his wod-the one see in his
eyes-he one had myself-the one every small boy
has right TO- see suddenly instead the that is
being left over for him by me- by all of us the one he will
have TO try to put UP with have TO live n have to be
man in when you and have stopped trying
Then when face the small boy want to go off
ia wide high place alone and think and ask God
want TO so down into The city and f8ht-fieht with my
money and with my hope, 60 over the top with my
religion and then come back and face the small boy
There are days during this struggle when my soul
spent and all the world seems made of iron and glass
and all these crowds OF people fockin9 through the
streets who do not seem TO care.
1t seems as if would not turn over my head to save
world TO live in myself 1t does not matter about
meand some days the people see go by almost
make me think it does not matter about them. -.
Then suddenly go by troops of school children at
four O'Clock pouring out into the streets. pouring
like fire. pouring like sunshine out into the streetsl
II is as the roll of drums for the Liberty Loanl
want TO ring great church bells TO call people to
the Red Cross!
My rule for mans finding out just how much he
should subscribe TO the Red Cross is this:
Put down your name and address the blank
and leave the amount open TO think. Then Try 9oine
past sehoohouse about four O'Clock when the children
pouring out
Or in the evening when the house is quiet put
down your name and the best figure you dare on the
white paper
Then go upstairs minute and look in the crib
Then look al your blank when you come down

A comrade--maybe your hoy-crawl-

Billy Jones back to the American
trenches.
Other comrades carried him back
through the maze of trenches To a
dressing station, where his wound was
cared for.
A medical department ambulance
carried him on 10 the field hospital
From there Billy Jones was taken TO
