in honor of Dona Ana county boys wiu nave given their lives in the service of their country The return of their more fortunate comrades should mark the beginning of such a ment Such a memorial should be more than a monument It should be something which would not only honor the dead but uplift and the It need not be too costly but if the memorial which is considered appropriate be costly the people of this community may be depended on to pay the price The Republic will be glad to publish brief tions from any citizens have ideas on this subject Hardin W D Ewing Miss Josephine Wm Smallberg Eugene
