“MEMORIES”
At eleven o’clock on November
11, twenty-two years ago, cessa
tion of hostilities was ordered.
Europe and much of the world
outside had been caught in this
maelstrom of human madness. The
pre-war order had been complete
ly wrecked, as international, in
dustrial, constitutional, social and
religious. Empires crumbled, parts
of these empires clamored for in
dependence, and territorial chaos
reigned. But war had ended—a
war fought to end all wars—and
then to adjust and rebuild—and
forget.
Today World War No. II looks
to no truce. Brutality and utter
disregard for humanity is evi
denced in a terrible onslaught of
fire ar/1 destruction. The small
and coveted countries have been
cruelly engulfed in a war that has
swept over Europe and literally
rocks the world. Death arid suf
fering ’ion of are all but that naught. the learned Destruc- and
killed have accomplished for gen
rations suddenly becomes a heap
rubbish. It will take a whole
meration to mend the ills and
aht the wrongs. The tremendous
1SS of life hangs heavy, The
iriceless heritage of nations so
vantonly disregarded is glaring
■vidence of ruthlessness.
VVe who have the privileges of
free people, live in neighborly
ashion and brotherly love have;
blessing* for which to be devout- ;
v thankful. Our policy of sym- j
>athy. service and reasonable
n ices to all is in keeping with
hew beliefs.

When You Burn up Tour Leaves
You are Burning up Money
If someone should hand you a
pile of $1.00. $5.00 or $10.00 bills
you would not think of putting
them in the fire, and yet people
all over this county are sending
up hundreds of dollars in smoke
from numerous piles of leaves.
Nature has provided each tree
and shrub with its own form of
fertilizer and mulch in the leaves
that it sheds, and if this protect
ing blanket is not disturbed, the
plants will flourish. You can go
in the woods on the hottest sum
mer day and dig down beneath
the top leaves and find a damp
layer of leaf mold serving to keep
the vees cool and moist.
It is not always practiced to al

The burning of leaves is not on
ly wasteful, but a neat fire haz
ard. It is usually dry in the fall,
and therefore dangerous to burn
leaves near houses and barns.
Many people burn their leaves
and then buy fertilizer to replace
them. Lets save and use the things
that nature has so lavishly pro
vided, and make our county “blos
som as the rose.”
