Missing The Boys

There is not now a community
in Sharp county that cannot dis
tinctly feel the absence of a coed
many young men who have gone
away to fight the battles of the
wal. More are going next month,
and then they can be missed~more.
No doubt more will be going away
the next month and perhaps the
next and the next, and then we
are surely going to miss our young
men. That is war. If the struggle
is long-continued we are gcine to
miss not only our young men, but
many older ones as we'll. That is
war, too. The Record is not at
tempting to draw a dark picture,
but is simply recitine what every
one must realize and should have
prepared themselves for.
The people must be brave and
hopeful. This cruel war must be
fought out to a finish. 1t is going
to end some day, withis--,welve
months, we verify believe the best
signs say, the peace Of the world
will be firmly and forever establish
ed and every section of this great
government will be proud of her re-
turning heroes
