Here's the banner The Government offers:
As symbol of ''duty well DONE

OF Bonds in The Liberty Loan.
Civic pride should inspire US to win it,
Ernest effort will capture the prize;
Yet, there's more in achieving such honor
Than you may at first realize
Every soldier boy dreams of sure Victory,
God grant that his dream may come true!
Altho God, in His mercy, protects him,
Yet some aid is expected of You.
Therefore, dig way down deep for your dollars,
cover the Top with your gold
Shell out your shekels, your ducats;
On purse-strngs now loosen your hold
Uncle Sam guarantees every penny,
Aid, protect each brave boy cover there"
Now most loyalty strive,

Toward The Liberty Loan. DO Your Share!

Member of Prominent Family

Herndon was 81 years old March 2lst.
He was born and reared in Irvington
and was a member of one of the most
prominent families in Breckenridge
county.
He was educated at Russelville, Ky.
and he had just finished his course in
Electrical Engineering at the Kentucky
State University at the time he enlisted.
When President Wilson issued the call
fpr volunteers, Herndon took his exami-
Ations and passed and was released
from commencement exercises or the
University because he was anxious to
enlist and do his part in saving America
He was frs. sent to Fort Thomas, Ky.
for training, then to the barracks OF
Washington University. Having sue
cessfully passed all of his examinations
there, he was later sent to France in
October Mr. and Mrs. Herndon went
to New York to see him before he left
and the last thing he said to his mother
was that he felt it his duty to 90 and
said 81 must CO."
Young Herndon was very popular
among his colleagues and in his home
town. He was an exceedingly hand
some young man and with his personal
magnetism, his high principles, his sim
cere devotion and loyalty to his coun-
try and to those whom he loved, he won
more friends than most young men OF
his years are able to obtain.
Besides his parents, Herndon had two
younger brothers, Fairleigh and Jess,
for whom he was fighting.
Memorial Service.
A memorial service was held, Sunday
morning at the Methodist church in
Irvington, to pay tribute to the county's
first hero.
The services we're conducted by Rev.

short talk in memoriam of Lewis w.
Herndon and Rev. P. H. Ryan, of the
Methodist church, gave the address of
the morning
Beautiful music was rendered and
there were present two boys in service
who were comrades of Herndon. They

Rev. Ryan, in his address, said;
"Greater love hath no man than
this: that man lay down his life for
his friends" Love is that element in
man and woman that make them kin

every need nobly, that responds to
every situation In fullest measure
There are some occasions in which 1t
Is necessary for love to express itself
