The huckleberry season near Hazle-

FINE TRIBUTE TO
AMERICAN WOMEN
Pottsville's Mayor Expresses
Appreciation of Letter
of Sympathy

When a recent casualty list con-
tanned so many names of Pottsville
soldiers, former members of the old
Eighth Pennsylvania Regiment Mrs.
Maurice e. Finney, wife of Colonel
Finney wrote a personal letter OF
sympathy to the mayor of that city,
receiving the following reply:
My Dear Madam: Please be as
sured of Pottsville's sincere apprecia-
tion of your letter of August 4, eX-
pressing sympathy on the occasion
of our recent soldier loss. 1t is true
that the receipt of such heavy cas-
ualty list came as a terrible shock
but we are brave in Pottsville and
proud to have been called upon to
make another sacrifice upon the al
tar of liberty. The mothers of our
soldier boys have set beautiful ex-
ample for all America and their cour-
age and fortitude are magnificent.
There are no women more glorious
than ours, none whose souls are more
animated with patriotism, none who
serve God and country with greater
elf-abnegation and none whose deeds
more justly entitle them to an in
scription of their names in the Book
of Eternity. We are not vainglorious
here. for Pottsville is only typical
of the rest of America, but We are
inspired to make even greater sacri-
fees. if necessary, for the liberty of
mothers like yourself.
When victory shall have been won,
America will not pass unrequited or
unsung the opportunity to pay proper
tribute to these wonderful women and
our prayers will be for an eternal
reward for each and every one of
them. God bless America, her wo-
men, her army and navy.
Sincerely yours.

Mayor of Pottsville.
