Shaw, appearing in this issue announcing Flag Week from June 8th to June 14th this year. The Mayor has received an urgent message from the Treasury department of the United States asking that the proclamation be issued and the citizens of Murray rallied to the need of buying War Bonds during the Flag Week. The treasury officials have asked for extra purchase during the week of June 8th to June 14th of 100 million dollars. Shaw has appointed Mayor James Powell as general chairman for the week and Mr. Powell will organize a movement for the carrying out of Murray's share in this particular war effort. It is understood that the various organizations, churches, lodges and civic clubs will soon be notified of their share in the campaign. Chairman Powell and Mayor Shaw ask that citizens of that the citizens of Murray stand by for a call to put this campaign over in the usual 100 per cent way that Murray people have handled all the war calls in the past.

The first Issue is slated for June 12 and is such size that it can readily be mailed to your fighting folks. Your interest in mailing the publication is the only thing required to niiike the plan continue with a new issue each third week, according to present arrangements. The families and those corresponding with the service people are the only persons able to keep in touch with them as to their The Lions Club at locations. first thought of mailing the paper direct to the addressees, but found that these addresses changed so frequently that it would be impossible to do the clerical work involved. Youwill be able to secure a copy, for mailing to service men, at the following places in Murray: City Hall Recorder's Office. Murray City Pharmacy. Murray Theatre. Drug Co. Murray Eagle. May it be suggested that only one of those corresponding with a service man or woman attend to the mailing of this news bulFor instance, the receivletin. ing of two copies by one man would tend to be a waste and a killer of interest. Many of the service men change locations very fast and you are likely to be informed before anyone else of such change. In case relatives are not interested enough to call and mail the papers, it would seem useless to print them.
