Men Off to Wars
Still more Mills County young men will
be inducted into the army June 8 when some 20 will be sent to the induction center. Three more have already enlisted and another, Martin Ellis Cole, has been transferred to Dresden, S.D., for induction.
The county local board urges as many people as can to come to Glenwood June 2 to give the boys a patriotic send off. The boys will report at 6:40 a.m. and their bus will leave at 7. There will be music by the fife and drums corps
and many will want to be there to give encouragement to the boys.
