Decoration Won

Our boys are winning decora- tions over in France just as we expected them to, and while they are winning them there many of. the patriots at home are showing a devotion to the country and an eagerness to serve which are likewise en- titled to marks of distinction. One of these men in Williams, is L. s. Williams. When the ability with which the cam paign was planned and the eff ciency and energy used in it's execution, together with the untiring efforts exerted by the chairman are given due credit. it must be granted that MT. Williams got into the trenches and went over the top with the boys. While much credit is due to all the patriots who helped to make the Red Cross drive a, suc- cess, the medal was won by the chairman.

that in this cam paign he is out for blood, and will visit and stump every city, town, hamlet, rodeo camp, re- vival camp, railroad camp, road camp, mining camp, war camp, and crossroads in the State, from the Utah line to Sonora. From now on, Judge Loy's headquarters will be in the saddle! His slogan is:
 Hay on, MacDuff; and

 Hold, enough!"
 Yours for Judge Loy,

No Room For Regrets

Surprising as it may seem, there are some who are expres- sing regrets that the Red Cross War Fund was so greatly over subscribed in Williams. Instead they should be thanking their lucky stars that they live in a town so filled with loyalty and patriotism. Two months from now, every person who contri- buted to that fund will have forgotten about the contribu- tion made, none of the contri- butors are going to suffer priva- tions as a result of their dona- tions that will amount to any thing in comparison to what the boys at the front must suf- fer. And in the meantime the dollars contributed will go on performing their wonderful work of mercy.
 While it is true that but one hundred million dollars was asked in this country, it is also true that two hundred million would have been welcome and none too much to answer the calls for help that are being heard in war ridden Europe. The posters sent out advertising the drive, urged each one to figure what he could spare and then double it. That is the spirit that is being displayed by the boys in France, and that is going to beat the Hun. Those boys don't stop to ponder whe- ther they are doing all that is required - as much as a neigh Dor regiment and then hesi- tate lest they do too much. They give all they have. They fight until they are wounded and then fight on while life lasts or until the Hun is driven back. That is the spirit of the army and that should be the spirit at home. Q
 There is no room for regret that we have done so much. If we did all that we could, then we can but regret that we could do no more. Read what those boys are already doing in France. We cannot do too much to back them up.
 We went over our quota two and one half times, to be sure, but it didn't hurt us, and we could have done more.

Pull liam is we'll known turnout the county and the state, being an old resident here and having filled a number of positions of importance. He was elected to the office of Sheriff on the Dem ocratic ticket in this county six years ago, and after serving out his term, received the appoint ment by Governor Hunt, of the State Industrial School. He fill ed both positions so we'll that he gave exceptional satisfaction. He is an able man and we'll liked by all who know him.
