Everyone

The Service Star Legion has enlist
ed the aid of the American Legion, the
Chamber of Commerce and t h e
Woman's Club in the campaign for
funds for the memorial to the Rusk
county boys who died in their coun-
try's service in the late war. This
memorial will be a cast-bronze statue

height of twelve feet, the statue being
seven feet and the base five feet high.

time after the memorial is ordered to
get it here and have it erected and
the committee wishes to have the ded-
ication on Nov II, Armistice day.

SHELDON PLANS
COMMUNITY HALL
Supper and Stunt Program Aug,
20 To Start Nucleus of
Fund

Sheldon is to have community hall
that can be used as a meeting place for
the different organizations and com.
munity groups; in fact, it will be the
gathering place for the people in the
Sheldon community.
An organization is being formed to
get together a fund for this building.
The money will be raised through sup
pers, plays, dances and different
events which will add life to the COM
munity as well as add money to fund
which will make Sheldon better COM
munity in which to live.
The first event on the program will
be held on Tuesday, August %. 1t
will take the form of a supper and a
stunt program, and will be held in the
park. This will be followed by a
dance in Meyers barn. A nominal
charge will be made.
Sheldon needs a community hall.
This occasion merits the support OF ev-
eryone in the Sheldon community. An
urgent invitation is extended to all.

RECLAMATION ACT
BACK TO COUNTY BOARD

A mistake of the county board at
their last special meeting will hold
up the money on the county reclama-
ton act until the board meets this fall.
The bonding resolution levied spe-
cial tax ON property owners who want
ed loans instead of general county
tax for the bonds While each farm is
given as individual security for this
reclamation money to the county, the
county at large is to issue the bonds
for the benefit of its settlers. This
delay is big disappointment to. many
of the settlers who were planning on
the money for clearing land and it
now looks as though the money would
not be available before the first OF the
year.

team, at the fair grounds here. The
financial pace has been too strenuous
and number of salaried players
have been dropped The team as
constituted for the remainder of the
season will be paid only as the gate
receipts permit and the fans should
back up the players with liberal pat
ronage. If they will thus encourage
the boys, the city will doubtless have
a creditable team for the remainder
of the season. To have a good base
ball team, however, requires loyal sup
port from the fans Humber will
