Another Gold Star Appears
     
Thursday of last week Mr. and Mrs. Chester McIver received a telegram from the War Department, advising them that their son Sgt. Earl C. McIver, had given his life for his country Monday, April 30, on Luzon, Philippine Islands.
     We regret the lack of further details, but to date we have been unable to contact the McIver family.
     However, we believe Sgt. McIver had been in the service some 20 months, having gone over seas last fall.
     The sympathy of all goes out the bereaved family.
