BOURBON COUNTY SOLDIERS
SHOULD HAVE MEMORIAL

Again an anxious public wants to
know what is to be done with the
proposed project for erecting last
ing and suitable memorial to the
memory of the Bourbon county SOL
diers and sailors in the great world
war.
In every hamlet of this great
country, in every city and in every
town. citizens are raising a perma-
nent memorial to boys who went to
the war, and to those whose lives
paid the forfeit for their patriotism.
1t is not enough that their names
be recorded in temporary way
They must find some lasting express
sion where for all time to come this
scroll Of fame may stand and serve
as an example to those who follow
after.
We in Bourbon county must see
! to it that a lasting monument TO
the fame of our gallant boys finds
some exemplification. Now is the
time to do it. We have had half
hearted movement TO that effect, but
like so many other movements here
it has fallen behind because of the
ever-present disposition to ''let the
others do it,"
Wood perishes in the course OF
time. The monument Bourbon
county must erect to these boys
memory must be an imperishable
one. In the olden countries these
memorials take the form of stone
crosses or monuments in the village
church yard. No matter where IT
may be eventually placed this memo
rial should be erected. If it is not
dene it will be to the everlasting
shame of Bourbon county, where
before the county has led In all pa
triotic movements.

W|LFUL LIZZIE TOOK
A SMASH At HER OWN
COUSIN SUNDAY MORN

Two boys, three girls, two cigars,
and a Ford, offered a little diversion
on North Washington street Sunday
morning, when the Ford crashed into
the rear end of the Stroman Motor
Company's service truck, also n Ford,
that was standing parked al the
curbing in front Of their place of
business opposite the postoffice.
Just why the accident occurred, or
could occur under the circumstances,
is a deep, dark mystery.
There was not another car in sight,
there was scarcely a half dozen pc
destrians on the entire block, and
the way was perfectly clear Of traf-
fic, but the blow fell just the same,
and both the Ford and service truck
were considerably "Jimmied' when
The crash came.
The manager Of the motor com
pany rushed 10 the scene and after
looking the situation over had a
heart to heart talk with the two
youths, punctuated by occasional gig
giles from the girls who were unable
to see that anything serious had
happened.
An agreement was reached where
by the boys are to have necessary
repairs made on the truck, and all
passed off serenely.
The little Lizzie that caused the
cornmotion had her lamps smashed
and was otherwise bruised mad bat

Were later figures available, the
report continued, "the picture would
doubtless be darker still, certainly
this would be true Of 1919, owing
to the large number OF hasty and
foolish marriages contracted during
the war"
As primary cause OF this sad
condition." which is characterized as
an ugly specter which looms on the
horizon of cur civilization" the re-
rort denouncos the motion picture as
now produced, declaring that nearly
every film put upon the screen con-
rains somewhere some evil sugges-
ton. Many of the films are based
on the eternal triangle and the sug-
gestion OF disregard If not an open
breach of the marital relations"
"The national board Of censors was
organized by and is maintained in the

cious in the pictures TO attract de-
praved public ana to create an in
creasipg appetite for that sort oi
thing. In other words, the purpose
is to make every picture JUS: as bad
as possible within police control and
