A SUITABLE MEMORIAL

The time has come for communities
to seriously consider the matter of
erecting suitable memorials for their
soldier and sailor dead. 1t would be an
admission of ihgratitude, now that the
war has practically ended for any com
munity to long neglect its duty in care
fully preserving in memory the names
and deeds of its heroic dead in the war
just brought to a close.
Shafts of marble or granite, on which
were carved the names of those who fell
in battle have long served as memorials
to the departed. And their purpose has
been well filled But recent years have
Witnessed growth in the tendency to
incorporate in memorials more than Il
single purpose Men often bequeath, at
their deaths, funds for the erection of
a house of worship, library, or other
civic Improvements which serve two
fold purpose-preserving to the people

who has departed, and at the same time
provide the public with an agency for
its intellectual, moral or physical i'm
provement.
The fallen soldiers and sailors cannot
erect memorial. The memorial they
left to posterity is not carved in slabs
of stone, but is seen. in the definite
of autocracy's dreams of
world domination Yet these self-sam
heroes, who have erected this umdying
monument to themselves, should not be
suffered to have their identity as indi-
giduals lost as the years roll by Each {
community, no matter how Loyalty it has

is gallant sons who have surrendered
heir lives in the cause of democracy,
till another debt And the debt is to j
reserve the names of those warriors y
Who lie beneath the soil so they shall
ever be forgotten.
The exact form the memorial should
axe is matter open for discussion
t would not be out of place, however,
D suggest something more useful and II
lore ornamental than a bleak piece of a.
tone Let the memorial be an every r,

from a mysterious source, have proven

II is alfost inconceivable that sol
der, who had so eagerly answered the
call Of his country TO arms, should sue
cumb to the trickery Of the bolshevists,
but, after all, the situation is not diff
ficult one TO explain. He who is thus
influenced yields only to weakness of
human nature. Mustered out of the
military service, in which he had been
made to feel that he was an integral
part in the giant buwark Of national
defense and honor, the soldier, hungry,
weary, penniess, and with no work in
sight falls ready prey to the agitator,
who argues that the soldier now is wit
Messing the gratitude Of the public,
whom he has served and for whom Ger
tain of his comrades have lain down
their lives. And a convincing argu
ment it often proves to. be- especially |
when the spirits of the soldier are not
high. And especially so when it is the
bolsheyik which feels the hungry erst-
while soldier.

Drug Store Robbed

!. Some time Wednesday night
a back window in the Hughes
Bros. drug store was broken and
a thief entered. About 3 a. m.
DIR. B. Hughes had occasion to go
into the drug store for a patient
and it is supposed that the noise
he made at the front door alarm
ed tne burglar who fled thru the
back door, dropping two bottles
of morphine tablets in the alley.
Missing is 200 hypodermic NOR
phine tablets, 45 Heroin tablets
and some other narcotics from
the case In which such drugs are
kept. There was a bottle nearly
full of loose morphine which was
opened, the supposition being
that the burglar was about to
sample it when disturbed. Just
what was taken has not been de.
termined by Mr.. Norman, the
owner of the store.
Suspicion rests on one more
dopesters and if the robbery is
traced to them or either of them,
they will get a chance to take
the cure"

More Joy Riders

Frank Arlington leaves his
trusty Lizzie just anywhere ne
lands with her and has no furth-
er occasion for the time being
for her services. At night he
parks the much disfigured car Of
all work right where he stops
when he reaches home at any
hour. Saturday "Skeeter', the
sawed off 16 year old universal
driver of all makes of cars and
trucks and livery hosses, used
the Ford in question, lawfully
and with the owners knowledge
and consent and early in the
night left Lizzie at her usual
stand in front Of the lumber
yard. About ten p. m. he thot
to take the car to its habitual
roost at the Arlington home but
when he went for it, the car was
gone. Mr.. Arlington had taken
it. Some time after midnight
Mr.. Arlington heard a familiar
sound. 1t was the sputtering
and clacking Of a much used road
louise similar, very similar to the
several noises created by his
own old reliable but Frank was
resting and he refused to be dis
turbed by a little thing like some
one making off with his proper
ty. Sure the Ford was missing
Sunday morning but Frank knew
beyond peradventure that who
ever had it would either return
it or abandon it as a hopeless
means of getting out of the coun-
ty, alone and unaided by the
only man, woman or child who
can manipulate it successfully,
namely, himself. Sure enough,
Monday he found the missing
aggregation of unearthly noises
about four miles south east Of
town reposing as peacefully at
on side of the road instead of on
both sides as usual, as when
abandoned for the night adjacent
to his own premises. The ear
was as complete as when taken
except as to gas, not a drop in
her tank, the explanation of why
it was not further away from
its habitual moorings, according
to Frank, but others assign 9TH
er reasons combined Herewith.
Anyhow, Frank says he expects
to trust to a short supply of gas
instead of locks or garages for
the safety of his cherished means
of loeomotion, for all time to
come, the assumption being that
the Lizzie will hold out so long.
