It will no* lm restored unless
the people ask for it.
The people patiently sub
mitted to the discontinuance
of this train as a part of the
country’s war emergency, but
now that the emergency no
longer exists; there is no rea
son why our people should be
denied the train service that

During Last Days of
Great War
Rev. and Mrs. G. L. Fink
received the following letter
this morning from their son,
Cleburne, who is in the mili
tary service in France.
France, Nov. 15, 1918.
Dear Father and Mother.—
Will try to write you a few
lines to let you know that I
am still alive and feeling fine
and dandy. Well, mother, I
have been on the front lines
for about fourteen days and
was there when the last shot
was fired and never got a
scratch. We are back a little
ways now and feeling as fine
as could be expected. I could
n’t ask for better health than I
have had since 1 have been 3v
er here.
Tell Mr. Ketchem 1 think I
will be ba--k to go work in a
few months.
Well 1 will close and tell
you the whole story when I
get home, and I don’t think
that will be very much longer.
