take that crepe off your hat! “They” called the undertaker, but it was a false alarm. “We” are not even sick. “Their” gas attacks on American Business jarred a little at first, but business is already getting adjusted to war conditions, and will soon be record-breaking. Business must bear the brunt of this war. Therefore business must not be discouraged, nor anything be classed as non-essentials until you are sure. Non essentials will eliminate themselves automatically. Even so-called luxuries will be of immense value , in our export trade, where they will be used in exchange for goods which we need more and which we would otherwise have to pay for m go . It’s money that’s loose, in circulation, that will win the war; not the money “their” gas attacks try to drive into hiding. Keep the automobile factories going at full capacity, if for only two reasons; First, that their organization shall be kept intact in anticipation o Government needs; second, that the factories may turn out-as many passenger automobiles possible, to take care of passenger traffic which tne railroads can not handle. America will need every available Ford this year. There won’t be enough to go around. Get your Ford, now. “THEY” —The Enemy. “WE”—Americans.

YOUNG LADY WRITES OF WORK AS WAR NURSE

Editor Republicans— You have published several letters from the soldier boys and said considerable about the Y. M. C. A., and the work that this wonderful, organization is doing. Now I send you a copy of two letters I received from my daughter. If you want to use any part of them you may do so. LEWIS S. ALTER. The letters of Miss Altet follows: Base Hospital, Camp Doniphan, Okla., March 5, 1918. Dear Father and all: I arrived here at 11:00 o clock last night. A soldier boy who was returning from a furlough was kind enough to take me to the Nurses Home. Say this is some big place, one of the largest camps in the United States; there is also an aviation camp here. I am sitting on the porch of the Nurese’ Home and can see four or five aeroplanes in the sky sailing around at a time. It is grand here, real summer weather, birds of all kinds singing and the grass is green. They say they have some very bad sandstorms here sometimes. We have eighty nurses, seventy-five doctors and over 900 patients now in the hospital and there are more on the way. Some of the girls told me some time ago thwt there were 1700 patients here at one time, so you see there is plenty for us to do—l only hope I can make good. I have been assigned a tent with another nurse. We have two cots, two wash stands, two wardrobes and a small wood stove, electric lights. Do not know yet when I will be assiged to duty. Think I will like the work, at least I hope so. Will send some pictures soon. Best wishes to an.

MINNIE. March 9, 1918. Dear Father and all: I am fine and like my work very much, it is so different from general nursing. Our hours are from 7 to 7, with 4 hours off, half hour for lunch and a half hour for supper, so you see it is not so bad. The best of it is that we get to sleep all night. This morning he had a terrible sandstorm. Just sounded like rain on our tent. (That was the same day we had our hard windstorm here. Ed.) Last night a bunch of we nurses went over to the Y. M. C. A. to a band concert and moving picture show. The manager gave us back seats in his office as the room was full of soldiers. The Red Cross nurses are treated grand by all. The boys see that they have the very best of everything. We see very few girls on the camp grounds at any time except the Red Cross girls. I am so glad I have taken ' up this work. Little did I know how badly we were needed, and how much the soldiers appreciate our work. We just oversee the work and carry out the doctors’ orders. The “up” patients make their own beds, and do whatever we ask them. Each ward (50 patients) has a ward master and two detail men to help him in care of the ward and the patients. We just give medicine t do dressings, give bed baths and orders. With best wishes to all', MINNIE.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC. The trustees of Weston cemetery wish to advise that they will charge $2.00 a year for the care of lots in the cemetery. . The cost to lot owners in the past has been SI.OO a year. The trustees have been compelled to make the advance owing to the increased running expenses. They now have a pay roll of S2OO per month. This at one time was only $30.00 per month. The board of trustees, after several years of work, have made this cemetery one of the most beautiful in the state. They regret having to make this additional charge, but it is imi>era-i tive if our cemetery is to be kept up to its present condition. E. D. RHOADES, A. F. LONG, N. H. WARNER, Board of Trustees.
