Loss of life greatly exceeded first ■stimates. There were 2,897 of both services killed, 897 wounded and 26 missing. Those figures are remarkible for the high ratio of dead to wounded which probably is to be accounted for by the almost inevitably urge loss of life aboard the Arizona which apparently went off like a gar;antuan cannon cracker. It was a ’lucky” hit on the Arizona. A bomb went down one of her stacks. Skillful and brave, Knox said of the fight both army and navy men iut up once they got going, and that lid not take long. But it is the few linutes or few hours before the Japinese struck that is subject to the investigation now proposed. And if it was a command failure the action to be taken will be ‘‘for the good of he service,” however distasteful that nay be.

(('nntliiurd front I’ngr One) cord Bridge a statute of a colonial soldier clothed In a very nondescript un:form and beneath that statute is the following inscription: "Here the embattled farmer stood and fired the shot heard around the world." Wc are proud of the fact that the first shot fired in the defense of everything that we hold dear came from a gun in the hands of an American farmer. A few weeks ago our President in a speech stated that it was immaterial who fired the first shot in this war but that it was very important who fired the last shot. We believe that last shot will be fired at the peace table. The Moose Lodge will hold a dance this evening for all members and invited guests. The Rev. Irvin H. Gates of Linton will be the special speaker at the prayer services Thursday night ip the First Baptist church.
