THE NATURALIZED AMERICAN
In the army of our country that now confront* the
enemy on the soil of France, there are uncounted
thousands who were born in Europe. They had not
wie privilege of selecting the place of their birth, but
they had the right to select their future home and the
flag of their allegiance. And their choice of all the
nations was our own America. While these adopted
sons of ours are dying the American uniform with
their blood, and breathing out their souls on every
battlefield, what right has any man whose home is
made safe by their supreme sacrifice to asaail the
character or contest the loyalty of any decent, solf-
respecting and industrious citisen of this republic?
ff Read the names of those who died for you and yours in the past six
weeks. Some of them had American name*, and they all had Amer-
ican louis.
(| We have anticipated our wants and are prepared to tak* care of our
trade in every branch of our line. We do recommond early buying.

ENCAMPMENT CONTINUES
On account of the splendid interest,
the camp meeting at Range continues
over another Sunday. Wonderful
times are expected during the week,
and many more campers are coming on
the grounds! The scripture: "Repent
ye, therefore, and he converted, that
your sins may be blotted out when the
time of refreshing shall come from the
presence of the I.ord," A.'is 3-19; is
being wonderfully fulfilled.
Many of the people who are Muling
God In these days of refreshing and
hundreds are in attendance nightly.
Sunday was a high day in 7.i >n, hree
services during the day and at the
close of the 3 o'clock lesson on "Serv- j
ice," Genesis xxiv, a baptismal serv-1
ice was enjoyed by all at the river
close by.
Everybody is invited to enjoy these
meetings.
AUTUMN SCHEDULE AT ROYAL
With the opening of school and the
passing of the hot months, business
settles down into the old routine once
more. Perhaps the most noticeable In-
dication of this fact la the regular pro-
grams at the Royal, beginning the first
of September. During the summer
months Tuesday and Wednesdny night J
each week have been very conspicuous
to the theater goer for the absence of
amusement. Manager ('. M. Funk has
returned from his vacation, however,
and while away he has visited some of
the largest picture shows in Colorado.
He haa returned thoroughly imbued
with the excellent possibilities Guymon
presents for the production of the
best pictures right here that the screen
artists put out. On the nights men-
tioned be will present for the near fu-
ture Blue Bird specialties Mnx Sen-
nate and Fatty Arbuckle comedies.
These are good clean comedies that
only first class houses are using. Be-
ginning this Saturday night he will
start the famous I'sthe-Hearst govern-
ment pictures that have been shown
throughout the east recently and are
meeting with the most favorable com-
ment. This will bring the most re-
cent war scenes to our very door. It
shows us how really wonderful the
moving picture art ia.

DAY NURSERY CLOSED
The Day Nursery has been closed
down the past week on account of the
illness of Mrs. lofgren, the supervisor.
A meeting of the day nursery commit-
tee was held Tnesdsy night and it was |
decided it would be discontinued until
there was more urgent need. In view
of the fact that the nursing service
course has not yet materialised as was |
expected and for which benefit the day
nursery was opened, it probably will
not be reopened until the nursing
class starts.
