There is someone who always takes the
joy out of life. We went to the ball game
last week chuckling to ourselves, with a
50-cent ticket we knew a civilian had to
pay a dollar for. We were just getting
ready to give the boys who were not, as
yet. drafted, the horse laugh; but. Oh,
Gloom! when we got to the park there
were hardly any civilians there, conse
quently the laugh was on us.
“Hurrah’ “Machine Gunners Arc Going
to Get a. Holiday Wednesday!” There is
a question In our mind we would like to
have someone settle for us, namely, “Are
wo machine gunners or are wo not?”
Someone says NOT. How about the holi
