I Roosevelt Stuffed the Kaiser. 1

i « mm—mamma—mmm—m— ■
Roosevelt Told The Kaiser He Could Lick The Whole World. The Kaiser Believed Him. Now The Kaiser Is Going To Get Fooled. Don’t Let Any One
Stuff You With The Idea You Can Buy As Good Merchandse For The Money Elsewhere As Yop Can Here Or You Will Get Fooled As Bad As The Kaiser.
John Brennan Is The Oldest Merchant In O’Neill. Outside One Other, He’s The Only Merchant In O’Neill Who Was Born Here. He’s Making Good In His
Own Home Town. He’s Going To Die Here. As Bad As O’Neill Is, It’s Good Enough For Him. People Come For Forty-five Miles To Trade At His Store. Others I
Living Right Next Door Go Three And Four Blocks Away Just To Show What They Can Do. Like The Fellow Who Traveled From Ohio To California And Up To
Alaska Looking For Gold. When He Gave Up, He Went Home To Ohio, An Old Broken-down Man. While He Was Sitting On The Back Porch Scratching With I
His Crutch He Uncovered The Richest Mine In The East. But He Was Too Far Gone To Enjoy It. Stop Running Around. Come Home. Your Gold Mine Is Here At p
Your Elbow. The Best Store—The Best Goods—The Best Prices. Your Lifelong Neighbor Is Ready To Wait On You—The Devil You Know Is Better Than The
One You Don’t Know. Old Friends Are The Best. They Are The Closest—Will Do The Most For You, And Stay With You The Longest. p
A FRIEND Is One Who Knows All Your Faults And Loves You Still. To Have Friends You Must Be A Friend. p

THRIFT STAMPS {?
It’s hard on my profits to give the
prices I do and still give Thrift Stamps. ;
But during this war we must not try to |
make profit. I am going to give stamps
just the same. If you buy $5.00 worth
of goods from me I buy you a 25c Thrift
Stamp from the Post Office, which makes l||
you 5 per cent Cash Discount.
NOTICE
You did not notice the prices last week

that date provide for the Classifica
tion of all registrants who have not
already been inducted into the Mili
tary Service of the United States.
All certificates of Exemption or Dis
charge issued prior to December 15th
are revoked by the new rules and
registrants formerly called who were
exempted or discharged are required
to complete the Questionaires as
though they had not been called and
examined. The rules provide a
penalty for the failure to answer
questions asked in the Questionnaries,
and persons who fail to answer ques
tions and return Questionnaries for
feit valuable rights by so doing.
In as much as the burden is placed
on every registrant to keep informed
of the status of his case, it is essential
that he notify his local Board of any
change of residence he may have made
since Registration Day. General
Crowder has wired this office request
ing that the broadest and most ex
tensive and continuous possible publi
city be given to the rule that all
Registrants who may have changed
their place of abode and post office ad
dresses must communicate immedi
ately with their Local Board, furnish
ing their present address, so that
Questionaires will reach such Reg
istrants without delay.
The President has called upon Coun
cils of Defense and members of the
Bar Association, Notary Publics, Local
Physicians, and all public officials to
render such service as will be neces
sary to assist registrants in properly
answering the questian contained in
the Questionaire, to the end that all
delay and errors be eliminated as
much as possible.
In Camp Hicks.
Camp Hicks is fourteen miles north
of Ft. Worth, Texas. There are
several squadrons here besides the
cadets and instructors. We are under
English instructions which is much
different than the U. S. The squad
ron is divided into flights. A flight; B
flight; C flight; and Headquuarters
flight. Each flight have their own
planes to take care of. The fellow
who takes care of the engine is called
a Fitter, the one who takes care of
the rest of the plane is called a rigger.
There are two fitters and two riggers
to a plane.
The 17th Squadron are to leave here
next week. They are a scouting
squadron. We are a bombing squad
ron and will have charge of the large
war planes on the other side of the
pond.
The expression “The Blooming Bloody
Thing,” is the pass word here, and a
swager stick under your arm is a
popular part of the dress.
The barracks are very nice, having
everything to make it home like and
the shower bath is the most popular
place of all.
I haven’t the pleasure of having any
of the O’Neill boys with me, but I will
say that the 22nd Aero Squadron has
a bunch of men that are a credit to
the U. S. A. and I am glad I was
transferred to such a good squadron.
They have been in the service for
eight months and are anxious to go
across to try their luck bringing home
the Kaiser.
This being Thanksgiving Day I
must mention about the dinner we had.
It was a real home dinner as you will
notice from the following menu:
Turkey, roast beef, brown gravy,
cranberry sauce, dressing, mashed
spuds, cream peas, cream corn, olives,
celery, apples, bananas, bread and
butter, coffee, ice cream, mince pie,
nuts, cigars and cigarettes.
Some feed I claim for an army. The
dinner cost $401. We had a piano
playing while we ate.
We got Red Cross Comfort Kits to
day from Kentucky, every kit having
every thing that a soldier needs.
There was a name in every one of
them, the name of the person who
sent it, so the boys are all busy writ
ing letters of thanks.
To the boys in the other camps I
would say a letter once in a while
would be appreciated very much as I
like to keep in touch with my friends
from O’Neill.
It’s about time for taps now so I
had better get my bunk made up be
fore the lights go out. Don’t forget
where I live and that letters from
O’Neill are always welcome.
Yours truly,
Pat B. Harty,
22 Aero Squadron, Camp kicks,
Ft. Worth, Texas.
