County Clerk F. A. Cooper has no
opposition at the present time, in the
campaign for reelection. During his
term of office there has been much
extra work on account of the war.
Hundreds of names have been classl-
fed by Mr.. Cooper and the exemption
board, and much other work done.
Thousands of telephone calls have
been answered and, all in all, the office
has been a busy place. Mr.. Cooper
will go down in history as the war
county clerk and his work has been
so voluminous, his efforts SO tireless,
that he should be reelected without
a hint of opposition.
A novel feature of the will of the
date S. A. Cook, former member of
congress, is the conditions under which
requests are left to several churches,

are based on their loyalty to our coun-
try and their care and keeping of the
old flag" The churches benefting
are the Presbyterian and Methodist,
Neenah; the Congregational Metho-
dist, Menasha, each $780, The Cath
olic church at Neenah, referred to as
"Father CIifford's," is left $3.50 and
the English Lutheran, Neenah, $3.50,
with the special stipulation provided
it has clearly shown it's loyalty to our
country, which cuts so deep a figure
in my heart"
