We fight in honorable fashion for the good of mankind; fearless of th<e future, unheeding of our iidividual fates, with unflinching hearts and undimmed eyes; we stand at Armageddon, and we bat tle for the Lord. Theodore Roosevelt in 1912. "I Am An American" DRESIDENT Roosevelt, in 1939, at the request * of Congress, proclaimed May 18 to be celebrat ed as "I Am An American Day", and each succes sive year this day has been so designated. This year, as never before, Americans with a vision, know that the meaning is immeasurably widened and deepened with expanding opportunity and responsibility of all Americans to interpret and live up to America's historic ideal. As the nation is made up of men and women of all nations, come to her shores from lands of oppression in the old world, now the supreme test is at hand as to whe ther the thought of her statesmen and citizens at home can keep up with the path being cut in those other lands by her armed forces so that freedom and liberty may enter in. In the immediate years ahead, it is given to Americans living today to decide whether the term "I Am An American" will bless "all nations of men" who "dwell on the face of the whole earth". For to this nation is now offered that awful opportunity. , , Getting Ready For Tourists DOTH Franklin and Highlands are getting ready ** for the tourist season through the activities of. their chambers of commerce. Both these community organizations have the leadership of fine citizens, unselfishly devoted to the interests of their towns. Both have sent out letters to members and prospec tive members, seeking a wider cooperation by a greater humber of people. The chambers of commerce offer the only med ium through which all may cooperate for progress, prosperity and general welfare of their communi ties, and the value of these agencies is being proven and demonstrated each year. Those who work hard est and give more time to the work are not the ones who benefit most. At the same time the prin ciple that the general prosperity is helped forward through this cooperative spirit that does not first ask the question, "What is in it for me?" is one that works for*, a higher standard of citizenship and neighborliness. Clean Up Week /"^LEAN UP WEEK is an annual affair in Frank ^ lin. Citizens respond to the proclamation of the Mayor each year in a spirit of cooperation to make our town clean, attractive and healthful. This year the campaign for V-Homes coincides with Clean Up Week and both will work together in a patriotic effort as well as a civic duty. Guard ing against sabotage in every shape and form should awaken every householder to guard his own and his neighbor's health by keeping his premises clean, and fire hazards should be eliminated with greater care than ever before. Then there is the added incentive of presenting a "swept and garnished" town to the summer visi tors who are already beginning to arrive. Every effort is being made to attract tourists to this section and we want to keep them when they come. The natural beauty of the town's location can be greatly enhanced by inviting homes and well kept gardens. Specials This Week: MEN'S SUMMER SPORT HATS All Size* ?

K. Cunningham & Co. "The Shop of Quality" Press Comment The United States army hat lost niive generals since the country entered the war. All of them met death fa the line of duty which goes to show that this war is diff erent from those of the past in that officers of high rank are shar ing the dangers with the men in the nanlcs. But for a steel helmet General Lesley McNair, who was wounded while making a tour of the Tuni sian front, might have been added to the list of fatalities among the officers of highest rank. General McNah- arrived at Washington Wednesday and is in a military hospital in that city. In former wars divisions and corps commanders directed hattles from headquarters behind the lines. Few were killed. This war is diff erent, nude so by new facilities that enable officers of high rank to keep in closer touch with the fighting men and observe opera tions . The airplane, tlve jeep and other military land vehicles, provide quick personal inspection of the battlefield by commanding officers and. our losses prove that they are taking advantage of facilities on land and in the air. When the final list of killed in this war is compiled it may be found that general officers hav,e suffered as severely, in proportion to the number in combat service, as the men. ?
