BABY TANK VISITED
GRENADA WEDNESDAY

would have bought some Bonds, but
my wife wanted. a car or some other
luxury, and did not have the money
to spare to buy both" You stand
back and say: ''This is the Govern
ment's place to get the boys back"
So it is, but ara you not part Of
his Government? Sure you are. You
get the same protection that do, or
any other law abiding citizen does.
Now men, in the name of the Good
Lord, don't refuse to buy Bonds with
part of the money you have been so
wonderously blessed with. Don't say
to the salesman that you have turned
this over to your wife, and whether
she does, is OK with you, when you
well know you have already told the
good woman, you are not going to buy
Bonds. The men that are trying to
raise this money are giving their time
without one cent of compensation and
are giving of their means literally to
buy Bonds. Think Of the Sixty Five
thousand boys who lie somewhere in
France with their faces turned to the
Heavens who have given their lives
and who so willingly left their homes
and loved ones, to obey the call of
our President, and then for you to
stand back and refuse to take Bonds.
Think of the poor widow who, ever
without home, giving her last boy,
and then to come up. holding up her
weak hands, saying, "give me a
$4,000 Bond, by the help of My Lord,
| will DO my best to nav for same" "
God bless the good women Of this
great land Of ours, without them, /,

autocratic. He has applied the rule
Of common sense as well as law.
His record therefore would warrant
his people in again entrusting him

MISTRESS JAY"

A communication has been receiv-
dat this Office from Mistress Jay
and dated at Holcomb. Not having
any knowledge, mundane or other
wise, of Mistress Jay" this Office
must decline to print the article. 1t
is indeed strange that there are some
people who have the intelligence to
prepare an article for publication yet
their minds fail to impress supon them
that reputable newspapers cannot
publish communications when the au.

ending of all things. The Govern

that have luxuri les of life should buy,
