HOME GUARDS COMPANY
TO BE OGRANIZED TONIGHT
The Cordova Home Guard military
company will be organized tonight.
More than 200 have enrolled as mem
bers, and they are all requested to
meet at Eagle hall at 8 o’clock. The
first unit selected consists of 125 men,
and as some of them will not qualify,
their places will be filled from the re
serve list.
The rifles and other paraphernalia
have been forwarded by the ordnance
department at Washington, and are
expected to arrive shortly. In the
meantime the company will be given
such training as Commander John
Gillis thinks best.
It is important that every member
who signed the roll attend tonight's
meeting, whether selected for the first
unit or on the reserve list.

given all the information relative to
the requirements, qualifications, etc.,
and he asks that all old-timers whose
arrival in the territory dates prior
to January 1, 1901, communicate with
him. The names of all pioneers in
terested may be left with him, and
as soon as a sufficiently large number
has been secured the work of secur

Here is the text of a Government War Loan poster
of 55 years ago.
if You have a solemn duty to perform J1
to your government and to posterity!
Our gallant Army and Navy must be supported by every man
and woman who have any means, large or small, at their con
trol. The United States government, to which we owe our pros
perity as a nation, security of person and property of every sort,
calls on each individual to rally to its support—not with dona
tions or gifts—though who could withhold them—BUT WITH
SUBSCRIPTIONS TO HER LOANS, based on the best secur
ity in the world.
Your nearest patriotic Bank or Banker will
supply this loan, on which so much depends.
