It is monotony, not bullets that our soldier boys dread.
At the front, they will uphold bravely the traditions that are
dear to every loyal American heart. But in the training
camps and during the months of forced inaction, there are
going to be' some tedious, home-sick days days the Kodak
can make more cheerful.
There's room for a little Vest Pocket Kodak in every
soldier's and fcailoris kit. The expense is small, six dollars.

A Sermon On Lumber
In conclusion my friends, we can't get owoy from
this lumber question. Why, every one of us
spent our first days in a cradle made of lumber, -
Our lives hav'e been lived between wnlls of two
by fours and lath, with rafters over our bends,
nnd matched flooring beneath our feet. We have
been sitting in wooden chairs, eating from wooden .
tables, riding in wooden wagons, antf in the course
of time will be laid to rest in wooden caskets.
