A Bully Good Meeting.

State Line was a busy little
burg last Thursday evening. and
its patriotism was shown to be
away above par. That cannot
be doubted for a minute. Some
dozen auto loads of Eagle River
people drove up that evening
and joined with the people of
that section in rousing meeting
at the Donaldson school house.
The program of the school child
rem, comprising patriotic selec-
lions, certainly reflect great
credit upon the teacher, Miss
Margaret Byrne, in its entirety,
the repeated applause clinching
that as fact. Alex Higgins and
9. H. Waters gave the audience
of hundred people splendid
talks on the war and our duties
during it's duration. The Loyalty
quartette was also a pleasing
feature of the evening.
