United War
Work Campaign

The people of Garrard Coun-
ty and the whole country are
called upon at this time to
make some sacrifice. The con-
tribution claimed by the Unit
ed War Work from the people
is a large one, but if is entered
into whole hearted as if should
be it can be met without a
hardship on any one. There
has been no call made for War
Work that is more urgently
needed than this one. The
war has ended and the gallant
courage of our army on the
battle field has glorifed the
name of America the world
around. The bravery and SOL
dierly qualities of Uncle Sans
men is the pride of every pa
triotic heart. Our army turn
ed the tide of battle upon the
Jirst appearance in the field of
action.
Many of our sons have paid
the price which brings glory
and pride to our country. Those
who remain in the camps at
home and abroad are now en-
titled to every protection and
assistance that the civilian pop
ulation can give to bring them
home prepared for citizenship,
even better than they We're
when taken from the private
walks of life. The soldiers in
private life will WELD the wild

our country and for that reas-
on the demand is urgent that

for which they were modified

ment and the people can pro-
