AU REVOIR TO OUR BOYS
Uuriug the past two or three years
large numbers of young men from
Cordova and the Copper River valley
have been enlisting in the world war
on the side of the allies. Many of
these volunteered long before the en
try of the United States into the
battle
On June 1 i last the tirst unit of draft
men from this section left for Fort
Liscum, and today the second unit, j
or all the registrants in Class 1 A and
those who have since become of age, [
were inducted into the United States
service. And their leaving brings us!
to a fuller realization that the war is
near. 1 hey are a tine-looking bunch
of patriotic young Americans who are
going to offer their lives. If need be,
that civilization may be freed of a
horde of murderous Huns.
I he.se boys will be missed, but they
art- going to the front to fight a glori
ous battle for mankind, and to them
we say Godspeed and God bless you.
May you one and all be permitted to
return to enjoy the country, your peo
ple and your friends you offered your
lives to protect and free from the
curse of Hunism.

SMOTHER THE HUN.
Cordova this morning launched an
other gas attack against the Huns
in subscribing to the Fourth Liberty
Loan bonds. The mere fact that Cor
dova is many thousands of miles from
the lighting line doesn't make a bit
of difference. Cordova is going to
hurl tens of thousands of gas grenades
at the heads of the barbarians who
are lighting the forces of civilization
ill France. It Is gohig to do it by
subscribing its full quota and more
of the Fourth Liberty Loan.
Maybe you will dig into your pocket
with greater Joy when you stop to
think that every forty-five cents that
you lend to Uncle Sam will put a gas
grenade in the hands of one of the
boys over there.
Cordova's minimum quota for the
Fourth Liberty Iaiau has been placed
at $71,500 and if this amount only
should be subscribed, Cordova will
buy about 150,000 gas grenades for
the boys who know what to do with
them when they get them. Can’t
you hear the Huns cry "Kamerad"
when those 150.000 gas grenades are
turned loose?

Smoker Given
In Honor of the
Soldier Boys
The Cordova and Copper River reg- j
intrants, who were today inducted in
to the service, were given a farewell
smoker at Eagle hall last night, the
affair being conducted under the aus
pices of the Home Guard and City
council. The hall was crowded with
townspeople and guests and a pleas
ant evening resulted. Frank II Fos
ter acted as toastmaster and very ac
ceptably tilled that role. He made
the opening address and was followed
by Lieutenant Calvin Hazelet, who
spoke on behalf of the Home Guard.
There were several boxing bouts in
which boys from a government boat
distinguished themselves. Dr. Bald
win, Sidney Jacobs, anti Chas. Cerney
entertained with clever stories, while
Harry Robinson sung several spicey
songs.
Music for the occasion was fur
nished by an orchestra composed of
A. H. I’lnkus, C. E. Rogers and E.
Hlumberg. Tho committee served
liquid refreshments and cigars and
the lunch prepared by the ladles of
the Red Cross was most appetizing
and greatly enjoyed.
For the success of the smoker cre
dit is due J. B. Sapiro, A. J. McCleon
nell. K. E. Holden and C. R. Byers,
who hud the arrangements in charge.
Tonight the soldier boys will be the
guests of Cordova chapter American
Red Cross at a dance to be given at
Eagle hull, to which everybody Is In
vited.
