only other member who did not serve
on the old council.
C. A. Galley made application for a
license to operate a skating rink in

a day too much. Councilman Newton
made a motion that dollar per diem
he demanded for every day the rink
is in operation, which was unani-
mously carried.
The matter of complaints by peo-
pie against the telephone companies
for placing poles on streets was
brought up, and motion prevailed
that these corporations be compelled
to submit plans to the village council
and receive that body's consent before
running lines or setting poles.
Councilman Newton suggested that
the marshal be instructed to keep
children from skating on sidewalks of
the main streets-to confine them to
the side streets. No objection was
offered by the councilmen.
Owen Newton, however, said he did
not believe in prohibiting children
from skating on any sidewalks they
see fit with the exception Of those near

Letting liberty and peace take its place. III

Who are traitors to our beloved country
Yes. traitors to country and God.
You came here, dear brothers and sisters.
From countries far over the sea, =
You came seeking home, liberty, freedom
And our good Uncle Sam welcomed thee,
With f i, love he received thee,
Prosperity, liberty. freedom,
That you never had dreamed of before.
Why did you leave that grand country
OF which you glory and shout?
Because she offered you no opportunities
1t was up to you to get out !;
And then, my dear sisters and brothers.
What did "our beloved country do?
Opened up broad tracts of rich prairies,
And gave it free gratis to you.
And now can you still be traitor.
And like that Judas of DID,
Who supped at the table with Jesus,
Then went out and sold Him for gold?
Could you dare see the Star Spangled Banner,
Our happiness, our joy, and our pride,
Dragged down to disgrace by kaiser,
The banner for which our forefathers died?
Our flag in disgrace, No, No, Never,
While the United States has son,
And the boys, girls and matrons are ready
To help the man behind the gun.
Yes, will sew, knit, sacrifice, labor,
And it's every woman's duty to pray
For success to our soldiers and sailors;
Our prayers will ascend night and day.

Is the same as our colonial hero,
