IS COMING THIS wAYa
Victory Highway Likely to Follow
the Old Golden Belt

A letter from the Victory Highway
Association to the Reflector says the
road is to come through this city.
It is to follow the old Golden Belt
road from here to Denver via Colby.
East Of Topeka it will follow the new
paved road to Kansas City and
through Riley and Pottawatomie will
wriggle over the bumps and through
the mud that those two counties
still think is a road. The letetr says:
"The Victory Highway will be
signed from the California line to
Kansas City, Mo-, by November L.
this year, the signs used being SINH
lar to those employed by the North
ern Automobile Club Of California.
These are Of metal, enameled, set
upon two-inch angle iron posts, II
feet high, and the job being done is a
thoroughly workmanlike one.
1--WE plan to erect at the termi-
nails bronze statues, and similar stat
ues are to be placed at the state and
county boundary lines so that In
years to come this nation will repre-
sent a definite memorial, testifyfne
to its appreciation Of those who gave
their services to their country during
its time of need"

Hoarifal Benefit Bazaar

The Dickinson County Hospital
Company will hold holiday bazaar
under the patronage Of the Women's
Clubs of Dickinson county. The hos
pital is a county project to be erected
in honor of the soldiers, sailors,
marines and nurses who participated
in any way in the Word war. 1t Is
fitting that all the clubs Of the county
should participate in the bazaar sale,
to be held some time during the holi-
day season. Mrs. Della Northcraft
has been appointed chairman by the
Hospital company and will confer
with every woman's organization In
the county in an effort to secure
county wide CO. cooperation. Merchants
will be solicited for donations, and as
the hospital needs more funds, 1t Is
hoped to bring about a successful
sale. Church aid societies and all
others will be asked to furnish needle
and fancy work, art work, aprons and
numerous articles for sale. The Hos
pital company solicits the active CO.
operation Of all its friends and be-
lieves that large fund can be real
lied. The proposed sale will last five
days and will also include such arti-
Giles as are usually included In a rum
mage sale. All parties, societies and
friends should offer their aid to Mrs.
Della NOrthcraft, chairman.
