LEFTY CLARK BACK ON JOB

REPUBLICAN SCOOP HAS BEEN DISCHARGED FROM THE ARMY SERVICE. * Howard Clark, better known as “Lefty,” reached 'home here today from Camp Taylor, where he had been since April 27, 1918, at which time he was inducted into the army s ervice. “.■ • . “Lefty” is 'back to his desk .in this office and some good articles are sure to flow from his pen. Our sporting articles, which have been sadly neglected since “Lefty” went to war, will again take a prominent place in the columns of the Republican. When opportunity affords by giving some foundation for a good story, “Lefty” will again duplicate some of his articles similar to “Mollie of the Underworld.” Lefty was very anxious to get back to civil life. He arrived here on the -10:55 a. m. train and at 1:00 p. m. sharp was at his desk m this office pounding his Oliver typewriter in civilian clothes. j It is mighty fine to have the boys back and life seems brighter, the world full of song and all our troubles are over and the boys fr*>m “over there” are over here.
