we should give a little bit Of credit to the navy We had almost forgotten
hundred of our ST. Joseph county boys are Elm the navy, and many OF them have
been busy conveying the soldiers over to do the fighting on the land.
Here is a highly commendabe project in more ways than one; a service
able one and one that would OuEhine in benifcenCe. and number of granite
slabs or archWaNS
These young men in the service of their country have given their time, for
practically nothng-from a monetary standpoint; suffered certain hardShnS
and sacrificed much, in comparison with civil life.
We have backed them with a 4OOOOO-doHar war chest and $4,000 in
Kd Cross NJ C. A., and other war auxiliary SUBSCRIPTIONS also by the
purchase of StO.OO0OOO.OO in Liberty bonds and War Savings StampS-and
peace has come a year or two n ADVANCE of the time that we had expected it,
Can't we get together and memorabilia these BOYS Of ours; the living and
the dead, no difference where they fell nor how, or whether they fell at all;
memorabilia them in some such fitting manner?
