cuse at all to strike and let the boy
on the battle front down. This letter
is the general opinion of the majority
of American soldiers over here.
Many of them feel even worse about
some of the news from home. If any
of these “strikers" know some boys
in uniform and think the soldier boy
is a friend of his then he is wrong.
Johnny Doughboy hates a striker,
and the striker will undoubtedly learn
this when Johnny conies home.
So. Mom, give the people at home
a tip from me. Tell them to keep th
chin up, stay on the job so that they
won’t let us down over here. If you
know some ^erk who thinks he isn't
making enough money, then let him
read this letter and compare his lite,
his condition, and his right to strike
with that of the l>oys here in Holland,
in Italy, Germany, and everywhere

Railroad Film “Heart
Line of Nation” Seen
By Rotarians Here
The role played by railroads in the
war, their emphasis on efficient trans-
portation which enabled America to
put fighting men and equipment at
the front, was emphasized in an in-
teresting film, shown to Rotarians
and guests here Wednesday.
Victor R. Craze of the Southern
Pacific Lines, brought the program,
sponsored by John C. Andres, Rotari-
an. E. C. Cole, local agent for the
Southern Pacific, was a special guest
for the day.
The film a technicolor depicted the
vital part rail transportation ha:
played in the war effort. Railroads,
aptly defined as the “heart line of
the nation,” are represented in their
romantic, industrial role as they have
expanded American frontiers ami as
ar: instrument of free enterprise gave
effective strength to the war effori
as they rolled the cargoes to the sea-
boards. In the world of tomorrow
American railroads will play an
equally important part in progres
under peace.
Mr. Craze, a former newspaper re-
porter, is bringing a four star pro-
gram of education and information
in the film he is currently exhibiting
in Texas cities and towns.

of years was associated with Matt.
B. Bailey in a printing plant. He also
at one time was on the staff of The

Mrs. Bailey, during recent years
