FOUR SONS IN THE WAR

Perl Wallace, son Of Mr..

near Chesterhill, left this
week for army service. He
has three brothers now in the
army, namely Dwight Wal

Dayle in Louisiana, and Del

Wallace have seven sons, and
their youngest son is now
of army age. The mother who
was here to see her fourth
son leave this week, express
the hope that her youngest
boy might remain at home,
since he was badly needed.
However it was quite evident
that she was willing to sac
rifice still further, if called
on to do SO.
When we learn of such
mothers, We are convinced
that many of the brave
patriotic soldiers of America,
are not wearing their coun-
