WEST POINT, n. Y, Jan. 1.-THE
Army, playing listlessly, disposed Of
Manhattan College at basketball to-
day, 25 to 10.
The cadets were never pressed, the
collegians displaying an unexpected
weakness, which spelled defeat from
the beginning. The Army's shooting
from the field was erratic, many
chances to swell the total being missed
BY the poor work from scrimmage.
German was an exception, but he was
taken out carly to permit of a substi-

The first half ended: Army, Is; Man

RED CROSS NURSES NEEDED.


Prowers county is making a spec
ial effort this week to secure nurses
for Red Cross service overseas, in
response to nationwide appeal
sent out by the national Organiza-
tion a few days ago. Every state
in the union is engaged in the
nurse recruiting campaign this
week and many young women are re
spending to the call
Mrs. w. S. Partridge, county chaH
man of the Woman's Auxiliary of
the County Council of Defense, is
in direct charge of the campaign
in this county and applicants from
the Holly district should see her
in person. Mrs George B. Merrill
is receiving applications from the
Lamar district.
The need of nurses in the war
zones is great and an appointment
to this branch of the service carries
with it remarkable opportunity
for patriotic and humane endeavOr.
1t is to be hoped that the Holly
young women who have ability in
this work will consider the call seri-

Our Sunday school will begin
promI tly at 1890 a. M, and our
Special Subject is "Over There" Sun
day.
No two words in the English
language mean SO much to us these
days, os it brings to us the memory
of millions of our boys, standing
side by side fighting for Christian
ity
We will have an exceptional SER
vice, as we will have short addresses
from J. A. Pierce, who has three
sons in the service, and Mr.. Wood
house, who is to leave shortly for
France for service with the 'Y".
Appropriate music will have its
place on the program.
Our little community has been
shocked to learn of the loss of
mearl C. Rockwell on the battle
fields of France. His name is on
our Honor Roll, and his Star is in
our Service Flag. short memor-
ial service will be held in his mem

PRAYER FOR CARE OF THE
BOYS.

A mvement has been started in
Holly in an effort to set aside one
minute each day in which prayer
will be offered up for the safety of
the boys "over there This plan
is being followed in many centers
of the country and it is wothy the
serious consideration of all people
everywhere. The war has come to
be tremendous proposition, hold
ing in the hollow of its hand the
lives and the destinies of millions
of our boys. Surely so tremendu-
Gus a proposition should cause us
to think seriously and to pause in
the progress of our daily duties to
remember them in prayer.
The following excerpt from an Ar
kansas City, Kansas, paper will be
of interest in this connection, how
ing as it does the way in which the
event is being observed in that city.
Each day as the evening twilight
fades away and p. m. is announc-
ed with the screaming of whistles in
this city, every head is bowed in
prayer for minute in ilent sup
plication for the welfare OF our sol
dier boys and their cause across the
sea.
Fifteen thousand people obey the
admonition of the ministerial asso-
citation. The city commission made
it an official moment of prayer.
Business stops for just one minute.

Perhaps the idea of prayer was
never more forcefully impressed up
on a people as this program has
impressed it here. When you look

WAR NEWS SUMMARY.

The Allied drive which had the
Germans on the run at the time
of our last issue has continued
during the week and the scissors
Rheims salient has been wiped
out. The old line between these
two cities has been practically re
established and at some points
the Allied armies have advanced
beyond the lines held previous to
the German offensive on the Marne
The Crown Prince was able to eX-
tricate his armies successfully, how
ever, and the threatened trap in
the Marne pocket did not materallze
The enemy forces are making
determined resistance on the Aisne
and Vesle river fronts and appar-
emily have made up their minds
to- check the Allied attacks at all
hazards. But in spite of their de
termined resistance French and
American troops have penetrated
their front at various points and
continue to advance slowly. AS
we 20 to press fighting is not SO
active, due presumably to the need
of larger guns and the time nee
essary to get the large guns into
position. The cities of scissors
and Fismes are among the points
of trategic value wrested from the
enemy in the fighting of the past
week. Vast quantities of guns,
ammunition and other war tropics
have been captured.
In the region of MOntdidier and
Albert progress by the French and
British troops threaten the lines
OF communication of the enemy and
constitute menace to the 3unc-
ton of the two large enemy armies.
The long distance shelling OF
Paris by the enemy was resumed
on Monday, but without serious
effect.
The Australian ambulance trans
port Warilda with $50 wounded
soldiers aboard was torpedoed on
Saturday. 1t was bound from
France to England The death toll
is given as 1913. including a number
OF Red Cross nurses.

IN ACTION
Mearl Rockwell Of Holly Gave His Life
on the Fourth Day Of The Great
Counter Offensive on Inc Marne.
A HERO OF THE MARINES


The war was again brought home
to Holly on Wednesday, when news
came of the death OF Mearl G. Rock
well. who was killed in action in
France July 18th. The first init
nation of the death of Mearl came
from the Denver Times, which tele-
phoned to Holly in an effort to Sc
sure information for a story concern
ing his service in theMarines. About
the same time a message was receiv-
ed by the family from the depart
ment at Washington announcing
his death while in action.
No news which the war has car
ried to Holly has brought greater
shock to the community than the
news of this death. The splendid
achievements of the Marines, of
which Mearl has been a member in
France, have been followed with a
measure of pride which would be
difficult to describe and few days
ago when the statement was issued
that Mearl himself had been decor
ated for bravery in action the town
of Holly and the Holly vicinity felt
that they as well had been honqred
by his service to his country.
Through several campaigns he has
taken conspicuous part and up
to this time he has not suffered so
much as wound. But such are
the uncertainties of war and we
must be prepared for the unexpect-
ed and for the casualties which are
sure to come.
Mearl enlisted in THE Marines at
the Denver recruiting office in May
of last year and was Immediately
sent to Mare ISLAM dsisayy Yard for
instruction. Later he was station
ed at camp in Virginia and early
last winter SAILED for France He
has rendered good account of
himself at all times and only recent
ly was promoted to COrpOralship.
He has been stationed In the Marine
sector and for some time has been
regimental observer, which is
position of unusual danger and re-
sponsibility. The entire commun-
ity unites with the bereaved family
in its sorrow and the name of Mearl
will forever be linked with the val
liant service for the country which
has marked his conduct "over
there"
TIE following letter received from
Mearl only a few DAYS previous to
the announcement of his death will
be of unusual interest at this time:
