ject work carried on by the boys out

summer, growing corn, wheat, soy
beans or whatever may be suited to
this section. The boys will assume
responsibility for the crop, do the
work, keep records and receive the
profits,

$4,000 ON JULY 4TH

Col. Frank Holtsinger said this
morning that he would lose between
eight and ten thousand dollars on the
third and fourth of July celebrations
but that the American Legion would
positively break even and probably
make about $3.50 on the celebration.
Holtsinger praised Clyde Miller Of
the legion for his work in the matter
and said he worked very hard, even
filling other fellows places who fell
down on the job.
The colonel is taking his loss good
naturedly. He said he didn't blame
those for not taking advantage Of his
attraction who were so keenly affect
ed by the strike. He was much
peeved over rumors that the Ameri-
can Legion could not pay their bills.
He said it was absolutely false and
that the only one who would not
make money on the celebration was
himself.
Clyde Miller said today he was
anxious for all who had bills against
the Legion to present them at once SO
he could pay them and have all ac-
counts settled.
The Legion also desires to thank
the boy scouts, the boys who ushered
at night. The flower girls and all
the merchants who so willingly and
faithfully helped them to start mem
orial fund.
Col. Holtsinger and the Legion de-
serve world Of praise for their pro-
noting of the big attractions here, for
they advertised Moberly all over the
state and surrounding states more
thoroughly than it has ever been ad-
vertised before. -Moberly Democrat.
