Show IN HER HUSBAND'S MEMORY Mrs. Maude Donohuo, Minnesota Newspaper Woman, to Erect Building as Memorial. The day Mrs. Muudo A. Donohue's husband enlisted she went to work on the editorial staff of the Snn Frnn-clsco Frnn-clsco Examiner. She is now editor and publisher of a progressive little lit-tle weekly paper at Ookato, Minn., trying, by keeping keep-ing herself always al-ways occupied, to forget tho day when she ro-celved ro-celved the news that her husband had been killed In action in France. Mrs. Bonohue Intends Oils year to erect a new newspaper building In Cokato as a memorial to "My Bill." and then she Intends as a "distant dream" to write a book of his life. Last year she visited her husband's grave at Romange, where 22,000 were hurled In the heart of the Argonne wood. Frobnbly no pnper In the country gives more sympathetic treatment to the problem of the returned soldier than does the weekly at Cokato. "The tragedy of war has broadened my viewpoint," says Mrs. Donohue. "There Is much to be done, and I'm frank to say that I expect great things of the American Legion as an organization representing men who know what the word 'service' means." |
