Card of Thanks
How Uncle Sam
Got His Name
During the War of 1812,
Troy, New York, was an im-
portant clearing center for
food for the Army. Here a
well-known meat packer had
his business. Most of the
beef that filled the stomaehs of
the lusty American soldiers
was provided by this packer,
arriving in oak casks labeled,
naturally enough, “U.S.” for
United States" It happened
that the packer, Samuel Wil-
son, was affectionately known
as Uncle Sam, partly to distin-
guish him from a younger
Samuel Wilson who lived in
the city. The soldiers soon be-
gan calling their food “Unde
Sam’s beef,” and as the initials
of Wilson’s nickname were the
same as those of his country it

We wish to take this method
of thanking our friends for
their kind deeds and expres-
sion of love and sympathy
given to us in the death of our
dear son and grandson, Jack.
From our saddened hearts we
want to thank those that sent
flowers, they were so beauti-
ful. We do want to thank our
dear friends in Mt. Enterprise,
which is our home, for getting
the home ready and for the
food that was brought in. We
do want to thank Bro. J. R.
Webb for his sacrifice in com-
ing so far and his kind words
of sympathy. May God bless
him. We want to thank Bro.
Starr and Bro., Howard for
their services. We appreci-
ate so much the tireless efforts
of the Taylor Funeral Home
for putting our dear beloved
son away so beautifully. May
they be blessed; our hearts go
out to not only those who have
lost their only child but to all
who have been saddened with
the loss of a loved one. May

•teei mill* must shut down, for all new
steel is !tt scrap, and the mills hare not
enough lor even 30 days more.
And one more thing. Help to atop the
story — spread by innocents and ill-
wishers alike—that there is lots of scrap
already on hand. They point to junk
yards, auto graveyards, and selvage de-
pots that have not been cleaned out, as
proof that there is no shortage. KUI Ms

In spite of the terrible leek of scraps here
