Speaking of nationalities -Lindbergh is a
combination of Irish and Swede. The best of
these two countries of the Old World gone into
the making of the unbeatable American! And vet
there are still people who think that America

Julius Jacobs of Dawson and Franklin was
ably burned the other day and is now in the
DAWSON hospital. To him and to his wife the
Gazette editor along with all the other news
aper people of the state extends the sincerest
