The Veterans Dined.

In the vestry of the Congregations
church there awaited all the veterans
a good substantial dinner of home
cooked victuals; but many, unmindfu
that any such good things were in store
for them, went TO their homes, that
| is, the majority of the Legion men. ana
only small body dined with the @. A
! X. men and Sons OF Veterans. The La
| dies of the G. A. r. and the Ladies
Auxiliary of the Sons of Veterans
were responsible for the abundance OF
wellcooked meat, beans, new rolls
| doughnuts, pies and cakes Of all kinds
coffee, etc Each year these organiza
tons prepare dinner Cor the veterans
and with the assistance of the Sons of
Veterans relieve the c. A r. men Of
all these tasks and duties necessary to
the observance of Memorial dav, and
without whose aid the day could not
have been eommemorated for many
years in the past.
After the dinner James Mackay, act i.
ing as spokesman, called upon several
persons TO say few words in honor
Of the occasion. Rev. b. G.. Lipsky
deemed it an honor and privilege to
sit at the banquet table with these
veterans on such an occasion, and be-
lieved that too much thought to the
memories of such men could not be
given.
Chaplain A. j. Baldwin made known
the fact that not more than one mem
Der of Crandall post, No. so, had died
during the past year.
Robert Mackie, vice commander of
the American Legion post, No. 10.
speaking in behalf of the Legion. gave
assurance of the perpetuation of Me-
mortal day. Rev. Lehigh, who, Mr.
Mackie believed, had not given to his
audience in the opera house all the
good things under his hat" responded
TO the call and stressed upon the spirit
of unity, which, he declared, we must
cultivate.
A. W. Robinson. representing the
Sons of Veterans, told that it was the !
aim and intention of their organiza- !
ton to aid the veterans and assist /
them to carry on the principles for
which they fought Mrs. Lyman Matott
next spoke briefly for the Ladies Of the |
G. A. r., and Mrs Owens for the ladies
Of the auxiliary Of the Sons Of Vet
Grams.

a piece of 3 peace with Germany.
After this it will take a mighty
nervy Republican to say anything
about old Grover.
When a No. 2 brain is hitched
up toa No. II mouth, it does get
awful tiresome.
A violent case Of peace has
broken out between the United
States and Germany.
Delaware has lost a sorry Sena-
tor, and the powder trust has
gained a still sorrier one.
Big words are what the politi-
clans use to conceal their little
thoughts.
The main trouble with orthodox
doctrine is that the D. DIS have
"doctored" it too much.
The "peace resolution has
brought peace just about like
hanging up a dead snake would
bring rain.
The preachers talk about the
Judgment day that is to come.
Poor fools. They do not know
it has already come.
The Upper Silesian question
was decided at the polls, but the
Poles were not satisfied with the
decision.
If you believe this kind Of plain
talk is needed, suppose you show
this paper around among your
neighbors and get up q club.
If Dempsey3's "mailed fist
had been delivered by Burleson's
mail system, the Frenchman
would have got off easy.
Do you remember all them
glorious campaign promises? Huh?
Well, what in the thunder has
become Of them?
The Hardtimes administration is
even worse than old Growers time.
Grover did establish soup-houses
to feed the starving, and Hard
times has not even done that.
Every day that passes makes
me more and more certain that I
am on the right track; because the
things I have been predicting are
coming to pass right along. When
a thing PROVES itself to be true,
then it must be true, isn't it!

November And then | wonder
what they will turn to next?
They have put off the disarm-
ament conference till next winter,
so as to give, them time to start
another big war between now
and then.
[ heard a rich Republican say
the other day that he had lost
81, 900 since this Hardtimes pros
perity set in. Well, he is getting
just what he voted for. And |
hope he will get his belly full Of
it while it is going.
Senator du Pont! That shore
does sound like peace! When all
the big munition manufacturers
and war p%rofteers get into their
bought seats in the Senate, then
of course they will turn in and
kill the business that has made
them rich. Like the very devil

This-here peace by resolution''
seems to be sorter like the dog
that crawled into a Joint Of stove
pipe. His fore legs were in front
of the pipe and his hind legs be-
hind it, and in that fix he ran
around all day trying to run out
of the stoVepipe, but carrying it
along with him all the time.
Even the mention Of a 'soldier
bonus" is a flat admission that the
government didn't give the soldier
boys a square deal during the
war. If it did, why is it's old
conscience hurting it now? How
does it happen that nothing has
been said about giving a "bonus''
to the munition manufacturers?

Ask your neighbor what he

amount of ignorance a mans
head can hold.
Be sure to read all about the
Reduced Club Rates in the first
column of this page. The price Of
paper is not down to where it
ought to be, BUTT is getting down
some, and [ thought perhaps [
could stand it to put The Fool
Killer back to it's old price.
I am still offering that 81, 900
reward to any person who can
show me the words, Immortal
soul'' Or "never-dying SOUP in
the Bible. Come ahead, folks.
Don't you suppose God would
be awful proud of a gang of hell
scared people in heaven? Why,
goodness sakes alive, such a gang
would look just like a flock OF
spring chickens hid in a straw
stack to keep a hawk from
catching 'em. Somehow it seems
to me that God would rather have
people who just WANT to go to
His place because they LIKE
Him, and not because they =
SCARED into it.
Not one preacher in a thousand
knows anything about the time
parallels in the Bible. And they
don't have any comprehension Of
the type and antitype system that
runs through it. If people would
only lay aside their prejudice long
enough to get a glimpse of these
PROOFS of the truth! But the
