I’m Private Peanut an<l I’m plenty tough! My hitting power la in
terms of oil. From 12,000 pounds of peanut oil, can be made 3,000
pounds of soap and enough nitro glycerine to fire a 16-inch gun on a
battleship. One blast from that gun sure could mesa up a lot of Japa!
Many other things needed by our fighting men and civilians can also
be made from peanut oil, such as cooking fats and oleomargarine.
Hugo supplies of these things will give the United Nations the power
to bury the hatchet—in the Axis’ neck. Uncle Sam has asked farmers
to mobilize five million acres of boys like me. And they’re doing itl
In Memory Of
W. B. Trimble
A wave of sadness passed over
tiie entire community Sunday,
May 24th when word was re- j
ceived that Will Trimble had!
passed away. Although he had j
been in bad health for three
years they were not prepared for j
this. He had put up such a brave
fight, being a pioneer in spirit,
while he was never rugged or
strong in body. William Brown
Trimble was born at Iredell, Bos-
que County, Texas, the son of
Alexander M, and Margaret Ann
Trimble. He was one of a fam-
ily of six children, all of whom
have passed on except one sister
Mrs. Ethel Trimble Richards of
Seagraves.
Mr. Trimble was the type of
citizen whose loss will be keenly
felt by the town and community.
He was interested in the welfare
of his town and county. A man
of splendid habits, he was con-
tentious, quiet and unassuming,
qi’volcd to his family, c,.rryin {
on in spite of ill health, arid had
many close friends who deeply
mourn his passing] He left his
boyhood home in 1900 and came
west to Claireinont, Kent County
to live for three years. Then the
call ot the pioneer was so strong
he moved on west to Gaines '
County in 1903 before the county J
was organized, and has lived j
here continuously since.
The funeral services were he'd
Monday afternoon May 25, at 4 1
o’clock at the Methodist church
in Seminole. The active pall
bearers were Morris Si ark, Ches-
ter Browne, Ellis Sweat, R. I!
Davis, Hubert Pruitt and Dong
Measels, Honorary F*all bearers
were old time friends, It. W. Pitt-
man, Bert Ancill, R. E Simmon;,'
(9. F, Haywood, W. A. Cox and [
Scott Dos< All of his immediate I
family were with him in his last |
illness. All that killed physician.; j
and loved ones could do, wa . |
done, but his Heavenly Father
called and he left this earth and
went Home to be at rest. He
leaves a loving and devoted com-
panion, three sons, Charley, Ray-
mond, Alex and one daughter.
Wilma Ann, one sister Mrs. Ethei
Richards of Seagraves. Several
nieces and nephews. Yes, it is
true that lie body of Will Trim-
ble now lies in the silent city of
the dead, but those who knew
his life among his fellow man
will rest assured that his soul is
afely in the keeping of the God
who gave it.
