Allison, April Sat a recent meet
launched for the erection of Butler
County Memorial to do honor to the
$50 Butler county boys who have been
taking an active part in the war acti-
vities.
The general opinion seemed to be
that this memorial should be in the
form of a building, and should be
erected in the county court house
square, rather than to have the diff
ferent communities erect some sort Of
a memorial. A meeting will be called
in the near future for the purpose of
making definite plans for such men,
