THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 1917. Copyright, 1917 4Kicfcl, ft tern Co. Fox-Wilson. A wedding of interest to the many friends of the bride and, groom throughout the county was solemnized Easter Sunday, when Miss Fleta Fox was united in marriage to Mr. Roy Wilson.

The wedding was performed at the home of the bride in this city, and only the members of the immediate families of the bride and groom were present. The Fox home was very prettily decorated for the occasion, the color scheme being green and white.

America has learned the awful truth about modern war she is disillusioned. But, realizing what it is, her people are entering the conflict only with a feeling of the sacred obligation resting upon them to help crush the monster so utterly that it may never rise to curse mankimi tn future. This is the spirit of America, and the quiet, sober determination with which her people accept the commission, is the greater guaranty of the faithful performance of the task, and the sacrifice that will be made to complete it. It is nothing less than Civilization's cause that she espouses. The greatest exponent of liberty that the world has ever known, she goes forth to maintain this principle whose very existence is threatened.
