Show M, poor corns A. Israel sen , 42 ( The Best Town By A DAM ?? WW The Cozy Site Corner BYW.L.C. W Well Folks here we go again ! It looks like the people are preparing for the election already. It is too bad for Willke, as he thought he was going to get the Republican nomination for president, but he missed by a long shot. A little guy in New York by the name of Dewey stole the show right away from Mr. Willke. Well folks we are still after a shoe maker and we hope that soon some one will read this column and come to town with a fine shoe shop. We Hope. I think we can be safe in telling the people that spring is here now as there are a lot of people that have their gardens already planted and their lawns racked and yards cleaned. And by the way, Mayor John Jorgensen has declared a two weeks cleanup and paintup cam paign which begins on Saturday April 8, and continues until April 22 Now lets all get behind our city and really have a cleanup. Cliff Stauffer' tells ye editor that there is going to be a waste paper drive beginning now. This drive is being sponsored by the Three Ward Relief Societies, and all the money that is taken in from the drive goes into the Societies Treasuries. Lets get behind this worthy cause and help the Relief Society make a little extra money. ' Sunday is Easter and thats the day when the ladies all come to town dressed like Asteds Horse to join the Easter Parade and boy do they think they are dolled up. Well we will agree with them that they do look very lovely in their spring outfits. Well folks it wont be long now before we will be having soft ball games under the lights again as the Senior Scouts' of the three wards are each going to have teams. We sure hope that one of the Hyrum teams wins the Stake tournament before the season ends next fall. There will be teams ifrom almost every town in the Stake represented. So lets get behind ouf teams and we know that we will see some very good games this summer. Have you been in the Hyrum Drug lately or in the last few lays and seen how Cliff has changed the store and put in a new and up to the minute prescription booth. It sure makes a difference in the appearance of the drug store and the people can also see what Cliff is given them for medicine. We still have a lot of people comto ing Hyrum hunting for houses to rent and I think it would be nice to have a place where the people could list their houses that they want to rent so that these people that come here wouldnt have to waste a lot of good gasoline running around trying to find a house. Last Monday morning they took lot of the Hyrum boys down to Fort Douglas to be examined for the army. We understand that all that Went down from here passed the examination an'd will soon be called ' into some branch of the service. r Jorgensen Declares NUMBER 42 FRIDAY, APRIL 7. 944 1 Ci ME 'AND MY SHADOW; Relief Society People Are Urged To To Sponsor lip Their Properly Durin Paper Drive Annual Clean Up The Relief Societies of the Hyrum Three Wards are sponsoring the waste paper drive for this city. The shortage of paper makes it very necessary that these drives be put on sb that the war boards may be able to 'finish all their war materials now started. Place all your waste paper in big boxes packed solid or in bundles and then get in touch with your ward Relief Society presidency and they will see that it is picked up 'immediately. All money taken in from this drive will be turned in to the Relief Societies treasuries, of the three wards to ad to their funds. You can help the war effort as well as yourselves by getting together all the old paper you can find. Low Down From Hickory Grove You know, this old Sooner, Mr. Id. Moore,, is no ordinary hombre. fou dont too often find outspoken ellows like him, bustin into the U. S. A. Senate. He is down there reHe dont presenting Oklahoma. give a hoot about getting appointed to a Postmasters job or something in case his people dont send him jack to the Senate. He votes as he sees fit nobody prompts him. This Mr. Moore is an independent oil producer and farmer he knows the oil business backwards and forwards. He rose up there in the Senate the other day and told them an ear full. He told em that this oil shortage which is now being forced upon us is artifical and an plan concocted to put the Govt, right smack, and up to the hilt, in the oil business, all the way from producing to marketing, and no foolin, he says, it is the planned plan. Once the Govt, takes over our service station and starts running them like the SEC and the OPA and other outfits that boss us around, it is going to be too late to do any good by getting mad. Now is the time to get hot under the collar and talk turkey to congress. Tell 'em, and make it robust. ut A Yours with the low down, JOSERRA Red and blue stamps are now good indefinitely.

He kept wondering just how it was that Howard Israelsen died, they must have been quite close. On Tarawa, I went into the beach in the fourth wave, our amptrack was completely recked, also the driver and all the crew. Six of us made it out and swam for it.
