man in trousers looks like -.
Now, kind reader, we do not say this
to be profane, or anything of that

John Wannamaker and Carnegie

we have resolved that we will heed

THE GLORIOUS
FOURTH

When our forefathers decreed we
should have one day set apart each
year on which we could give vent to
our patriotic enthusiasm and exhibit
our pride over living In a free coun-
try. they intended that we should do
SO in a sane manner. That is why II
is always worth while to remember
along about this time of year that II
is better to be safe than sorry. and
that Is why we want to believe that
every resident OF Winnemucca and
community is going to celebrate this
Fourth next Monday In a safe and
sane manner.
It's a glorious day for an outing. q
family reunion. or even just to use In
keeping cool and comfortable and re-
fiecting upon the wonderful advances
made by our nation since the days OF
Bunker Hill and the Boston Tea
Party. It's a good day to think over
the things that have made us strong
and great as a nation; to review some
OF the sacrifices that brave men and
women have made that we might &c
onward and upward toward a point
where the old world would look to US
for counsel and guidance.
This Fourth Of July finds us
stronger. both morally, financially
and from a military standpoint. than
any other nation on earth. And It is
through the efforts of you and such
as you that this has been made true.
Your willingness to sacrifice for your
home and country; your willingness
to lend a helping hand when your
community and your country needs
1t; your ability to put aside selfish
gain for the common good Of all
these have made a nation we are
proud to honor, not only upon tn
Glorious Fourth. but on every one OF
the other 1854 days in the year. And
1t is through the splendid children
you and others like you are rearing
that each succeeding Fourth of July
will find America growing greater
stronger. grander and OF still more
worth 70 the world

at Hannah Pickett for a few
weeks before going to Lake City,

ing transferred. Mr.. Mcdonald
served in the war in Co. B, 12Oth,
30th division, and in the battle
at Premount, on Oct. 9, 1918, was
badly gassed. He had never
fully recovered from its effects,
and so on last May 18th he was
ordered to the government, hos
pital at Oteen, near Asheville, for
treatment. He considers him.
self practically we'll again, but
is not yet discharged as a we'll
man. He made application to be
changed to the government hos
pital at Lake City, Florida, and
this was granted; and so he was
permitted to come home last Sat-
urday and remain here two or
more weeks before going on to
Florida.
