HURRAH FOR MIKE MCNAMARA.
Washington, June 20.—There’s a lit
tie sj>ot in Ireland that Michael Mi -
Namara had in his ‘'moind’s eye" for
a long time—thirty years, in fact. All
that time Michael was obeying orders,
drilling, campaigning, and doing the
hundred-and-one things that fall to the
lot of the American marine.
Michael finished his time, retiring
with the rank of "Sarjint major, no
less.” and went back to that little
spot in County Mayo.
Then came our participation in the
war Did Michael stay retired? He did
not’ He tame right back on the S. S.
St. Louis, paying his own fare, and
went directly to the U. S. Marine
Corps Headquarters to volunteer his
services.
McNamara could have signed up
with some Irish regiment for, despite
his fifty-odd years, he is still a “foine
broth av a boy." Instead, he braved
the submarines to fight under the flag
that for thirty years be had called his
own.
Michael has a bit of the stuff of
which loyal Americans and heroes are
made.

To Our Friends And
Customers
In order that you may know the reasons why lumber
is costing more today than it did one year ago, we offer
for your consideration the following facts:
hverything which goes into the manufacture of luni
i» r has doubled and trebled in value, machinery, saws,
tool-, chains, and everything made of iron or steel are
S costing more than was ever known before. Feed for
teams is at price- nearly prohibitive. Harness, belting
an*l everything else made of leather is likewise and the
sawmill- are paying higher wages. The demand for lum
ln-r ha s rown by leaps mid hounds. For some time buy
er- from the northern and eastern states remained out
of tin- market, thinking it would weaken, hut on the
contrary, it -teadily advanced and when actual condi
tions U-eanie known they bought in large quantities and
l*aid fancy prices for quick shipments.
rhe I nit-d States and Allied (Joveraments are using
millions *-f feet for war purposes. Work has begun on
one thousand merchant vessels to he built entirely out of
wood. |
The above are some of the reasons why lumber costs I
more than it -lid one year ago, but have you stopped to §
think that a l-udiel of wheat, oats or corn will buy more [
hinder and building material than it would last year. |f
We do not look for a decline in prices any time soon. |
If you expect to build, do it NOW while our stocks are
i in shape to supply your requirements.
Yours very truly,
Hansen Lumber Co.

President Wilson has approved the
plan for the Sunday schools of Ameri

triotic Sunday when an offering is to
be taken for the American Ited Cross

be asked to raise $100,000. We want to
do our share. Let us be prepared that
day. ‘‘What's your opinion of those
plans to rule the world under a sys '

THE SLACKER.
It’s most unpleasant to be shot or
slashed up with a sword; when bat
tle rages, loud and hot, the tinhorn
man is bored. His neighbors gallop to
enlist, all eager for the fray. “I’ll stay
at home,” he says, “I wish I have no
wish to slay." And while the war is
going on, and brave men sternly fight
he loafs at ease upon his lawn, and
sleeps in bed at nignt. He's thankful
that the stress and strife are far re
moved from him, that he can lead a
peaceful life in times that are so grim.
But when the battles all are done, and
peace is here again, and from the
scenes of triumph won return the j
fighting men, when to their homes the
heroes jog, with laurels on each brow, i
oh, happier a yellow dog than is the j
slacker now! “From danger’s path l|
was exempt,” the slacker oft hath j
said, “but now men view me with con- j
tempt—I would that 1 were dead! Ii
would that I had sought the scrap, and i
sailed in, hit or miss; and if they’d!
shot me off the map, ’twere better far
than this!” Ere you succumb to craven |
fears, to dread of strife and pain, think
think of all the future years and of the,
world’s disdain.—Walt Mason.
