AT the meeting of the American
War Veterans last Monday evening the
organization was christened the Ralph
Amundson Post. Ralph Amundson was
the first Edgerton boy to lay down his

him. Officers elected at the meeting
were: William Dickinson, president;
George Dallman, vice president; Frank
Gokey, secretary; Frank Devine, treas
urer.

Next Tuesday, September End, is
the date for the special election to vote
on the soldier bonus bill which provides
for the payment of ten dollars per
month for each month served by the
boys who offered their services or
served in the world war. Willingly
and freely the best of the young blood
of Edgerton left home, friends, rela-
tives, and all that was dear to them,
offered up their lives for the good of
their city, their state and their coun-
try. Most of them have returned,
some have not; all did their share,
and the question is what is Mr.. Voter
going to do next Tuesday. Are you
going to the polls and do your share?
Every voter should go to the city hall
and register his choice. If you vote in
favor of the bill you sacrifice compare
lively nothing; the boys sacrificed po-
sitions, health and life. If you favor |
the bill and stay away, that is vote
against the bill. Let your enthusiasm |
be just as evedident next Tuesday as it |
was on the 18th day of August, 1917,
when the train pulled out of Edgerton |
bearing away those youthful patriots
that our duty might be performed. |
Jump onto the loaded train headed for
the polls next Tuesday and register
your choice.
