The Woman's Club Building
To Be Moved Back;
No Meeting Tomorrow
The Woman's Club will not hold
their regular meeting tomorrow ow
ing to the fact that the Club House is
to be moved back on the lake shore,

The necessity for movine the rinh
House was found urgent owine to
tne fact that it must be fifty feet from
the Elks Home in order for the lat

ance rating. The members of the
Club have arranged for the buildinr.
to be moved back to the lake, and
the grounds will be graded and lev
eled, and put into an attractive lawn,
making of this a real beauty spot.

"Somewhere in France the
mies"
And the "Tommies" are fighting
together,
With weapons in hand, together they
stand,
in an seasons and all kinds of
weather.
They crowd in the trench with their
allies, the French,
And refuse to falter or stop,
And constantly waiting the word
of command,
"Over the top, boys, over the top."
Like a swarm jot hornets they rash
at the foe,
Regardless of shell or of shot;
They may take a few yards of the
enemy's trench,
But dearly such victories are
bought.
J'tc ground may be strewn with the
wounded and dead
By the bombs which the enemies
drop,
But the only way to conquer
Huns
la to go for them "over the top.
