Suppose it won't be until we get
these little yellow devils back where
they belong and I'm afraid it's GO
ing to take an awful long time. Ev-
eryone is under estimating their
strength, SO the people better wake
UP to the fact that they have sons
over here and help all they can if
they ever expect to see them again.
You know, Dad, | could shoot a
man for striking at time like this
as easily as | could a Jap, and there
are plenty just like me. The people

Firemen Will Present
Popular Easter Bali
Saturday Night

The Libby volunteer fire depart
ment has all plans completed for
their annual Easter ball A change
is being made this year in that the
ball will be held Saturday night
April "a The place is the Moose
hall. Music will be provided by
Smith Reid and his orchestra which
assures excellent music for the
dancers.
This ball has been an annual
event for many years and has al
ways been generously patronized by
the public. Proceeds go into the
funds of the department and by
patronlzing this affair the public
has a slight means of expressing
their appreciation for the fine serv-
ice given the community by the
firemen. Remember the date
Saturday, April "a, and the place,
the Moose hall.
