When the boys come home from
France we are going to have nice
collection of new French words
which will be as much of puzzle to
the uninitiated as the names of the
French, Russian and Belgian towns

is made clear by the letters we have
been getting from the boys over
there.

whipped they deserted their own

is permitted to live he should be re-
CURED to wear his moustache points

Food administrator j. M. Fulton
informs us this morning that the re-
structions on flour heretofore exist
ing have been removed and the peo-
pie can again purchase all the flour
they want. He stated further that
within the next two months prac-
tically all restrictions would be re-
moved. Isn't that fine. We are glad
the kaiser is in Holland, though he
might be better off in the tropics
or some other place where the heat
was more severe.

is one of the young men who has
gone from this community and made

friends here will be pleased to learn
of his promotion and have every con-
fidence in his ability to handle the
work outlined for him in a studious
and efficient manner.
