Erin's Minstrel.

Upon hearing John Mccormack at
Worcester, April 10, 1919
Have Nc heard the blackbird whistle
in the dawning.
AS the mist Wreaths rise from valley
hill and bay?
Have We heard the thrushes trill in
early morning.
And the linnets sweetly greeting new
born day?
Have We heard the Wild wind sobbina
DER the highlands.
Like the weird and woeful Banshee's
lonely Groom?
ing in the starlight,
Like Erin softly weeping all alone?
Or the lovers gentle murmur in the
twilight.
Like the Shannon's ghostly whisper
round Athlone?
Have We heard the rain soft-pattel
on the Window?
Or the water tinkling family as II
falls,
Like the laughter of a maiden ole,
the meadow.
Or the bell that chimes ut cen from
convent walls:
Nay, We cry, then hear your golden.
throated brother.
Hcarken to the songbird from tho
lonely isle,
Hear the blackbird's call and Groom,
ing of your mother,
Hear the lovers whisper to his col.
leen by the stile.
Sweeter far than murmuring water
DER cliffs pouring.
Than the Shannon, shallow gliding tt
the sea.
Is the voice Of Erin's minstrel, heav.
en-soaring,
Lifting lonely in the realms of ecs.

GREEK VALOR

Sons Of Greece Fight Like Their
Sires Of Old.
Detailed accounts OF the doings Of
the Greeks are very few. But the re-
vtval Of the Greek as soldier is one
Of the remarkable features of the
war. The following account OF the
Greek victory at Sarandapsoros in
which the Greeks totally defeated !,

six batteries of field artillery in adj

Subsequent to the defeat of their
advance guard at Elassona the re-
treating Turks fell back upon their
main positions on the Kambunia
range. covering the road leading to

a general advance toward the ene,cy's

and in the meantime the infantry
were exposed for several hours to tho
heavy fire from the Turkish artillery

fantry continued to advance steadily
upward until nightfall, but the enemy
still retained their positions whe 4
fighting was stopped by the darkness.
Both armies snatclled a few hours
rest that night under arms, but the
Greeks resumed fighting long before
daybreak. There was no restraining
the eagerness and courage of the
Greek infantry. They rushed, they
jumped, they leaped up the rugged
slopes. advancing swiftly from cover
to cover and keeping up hot fire on
the still resisting Turks.
In the meantime the Greek left
wing, which on the previous day hal
made a long detour in order to out
flank the Turks, was advancing along
the banks of the River Haliakmon
toward Serbia and the rear Of the
Turkish position.
The Greek right was operating
along the lower slopes OF Olympus
and encountered a strong force OF
Turks, who made desperate resist

decimated them by a fierce baycnet

resistance their fire was visibly slack-

tire.
The Grown Prince rightly judged
that the psychological moment had
arrived and gave orders for a general
and final assault on all the ene,ry's
positions. The Greek batteries swept
the whole Turkish position with a hail
OF shot and shell. Line after line Of
Greek infantry rushed up the in:---
vening slopes and, with wild shouts,
charged the Turkish lines with fixed
bayonets.
The enemy did not wait for cold
steel. They broke and fed pursued
by the victorious Greeks, toward Scr
bia and the bridge across the River
Haliakmon. The Greek army was or
dered to pursue by all routes across
the Kalnbunia Range and along the
valley Of the Haliakmon. They cap
tured twenty-five field guns with anu
munition wagons.

SCRIPTURES BEING FULFILLED

SCRIPTURES BEING FULFILLED.
Dear Mr.. Watson: I have been
meaning to write to "The Jeff for
some time, and as I am sending a
few subscribers, I will call the atten-
ton of God-fearing people TO what I
consider the most important cues
ton Of today, namely the 18th and
18th chapters of the Book of Daniel,
which [ firmly believe is about to be
fulfilled, beginning at the 21st verse
OF the chapter, for in these chapters
we have the Hierarchy fully
described, which Scriptures CORE
spond with Paul's description of the
Pope in End. Thes. End. chapter
In the 31st verse of the 18th chap
ter Of Daniel, we read that arms
shall stand on his part, and it is only
short time since the Italian gov
eminent took up arms against the
Turks, and when they have subdued
that nation, will be fulfilled the 45th
verse When the Pope shall plant
the Tabernacles Of his palace between
the seas in the glorious holy mount
ain and then shall they take away
our daily sacrifice which the Apostle
Paul describes in Heb. 10 and Is.
Now let me call your attention to
the 18th chapter and 4th verse, also
22nd chapter, 10th verse Of Rev. for
the end is at hand.
[ would suggest that all Catho-
lies read Matt. 23 and 8.
Wishing Mr. Watson and "The
Jeffs" a long life. I remain your
friend, ELIAS LOTT.

WANTS A CHANGE IN MONEY
SYSTEM.

Dear Tom: | am 72 years old and
have voted every chance that I have
had for the government to issue all
the money and fix the rate Of inter-
est, commencing with the Greenback
Party; when my vote was the only
one in the county, and I am still of
the same opinion, a subsidized press
and demagogue politicians to the
contrary, Notwithstanding The
money question is the most impOr-
tant Of any question in this country,
and is the one Of which the people
as a whole, are the most ignorant
AS I see it, our money system, or
lack Of system, has caused all this
vast accumulation Of wealth in few
mems hands, robbed the toiling
masses Of their just reward, and
gave to the man who had the dollar.
I am thinking Of writing a little
piece Of my mind and having it pub
lished in your paper, provided you
thought it worth publishing.
Yours for Justice
Swan, Ga. EQUITY.
P. S.-Could a party be formed
with the money question as the prin-
cipal issue with any hope Of success?
I realize it is pretty hard for a man
to devote his time to the interest Of
the people when they will not vote
for their own interest as they have
done in the past.

Please find enclosed check for ten
dollars for which you will please
move up my subscription to both The
Jeffersonian and Magazine for ten
years each. I am glad indeed to see
that The Jeffs are having such good
success, and I am thankful to be able
to help some myself. ! am not one
who doubts T. E. w. I feel to know
that he will ever be true to the peo-
pie. I have read Of no patriot that
l have believed to be more true to a
cause than our Dear Tom is to his,
and allow me to say this-that other
politicians have their friends in a
way-but none have such friends as
you. l believe a true patriot is
admired most by patriotic peopel, and
Tom, | believe that you have many
friends who would willingly die in
your defence. Have Taft, Roosevelt,
Bryan & Co., such friends? l think
not.

loophole through which to escape

No doubt the innocent and help
less often suffer from injustice
wrought by news reporters in their
efforts for sensational matter, and
from growing tendency on this line
I scarcely think our leading Journal
lists realize the power of the press.
I therefore submit that your good
example suggest much needed
amendment of existing laws on the
subject to the end that editors and
publishers be held strictly account

FROM A BAPTIST EVANGELIST.
Barnesville, Ga.

Dear Bro: I received your card
of the 18th instant, but neglected
answering.
Yes, sir, I am with you in your
work, and will do all I can to advance
it. However, the people here are
nearly all in the organizations that
you exposed in their mission methods
and are prejudiced against you. And
I am a Missionary Baptist Evangelist
on the direct plan engaged in the
work actively. They are worse pred
JUDGED against me. If you have
read the Missionary Baptist published
at Little Rock, Ark, you may have
seen my name in the list of mission
aries on the direct plan. I am doing
what little l can to expose the mod
ern mission system.
I hope you will continue to expose
the rottenness of Rome and it's aims
lin this country. | am copying now
at my leasure an article on the
Jesuits from very old encyclopedia
for publication 1t gives their origin,
CONSTITUTIONS what is known of it
and methods Of work and should be
printed by every Protestant paper in
the country in company with their
oath. / have never seen it in print,
only in this old book. l will copy
it in full and send it to you if you
think you can use it, but perhaps you
have the book. 1t was published
first by Rev. B. B. Edwards, editor
of The Quarterly Observer, and
brought down TO 1852.

A COPY.
Dear Sir: | note the fact that
you are opposed to Woodrow Wilson
for the presidential nomination, and
l think your opposition we'll founded.
| remember to have read something
about what Wilson said at the Cardi-
nal Gibbons celebration, but l did
not pay particular attention to it.
Will you kindly repeat the sum and
substance of what he said about the
Church Of Rome being the only
organization that stood for true
Democratic principles at a certain
interval in the history Of the world
Show in what particular he erred
And at what period of the worlds
history he claimed such honors for
the Church of Rome. fully con-
cur with you in reference to Wilson
and Speaker Clark, they are nothing
more than time-serving politicians,
who would grovel in the dust to
ingratiate themselves with certain
interests. [ see The Atlanta Journal,
and The Columbia State, are whoop-
ing Wilson's candidacy up. l would
write an article in favor of Under
woods candidacy for the state paper
published at Columbia, S. c., but
dc not believe the editor would pub
lish it. I have just returned from a
trip to Southwest Georgia, where I
met one Of these hatchet-face, know
all kind of men. Something was
said about Tom Watson, and this
shar pfellow said, my, Watson's as
crazy as bed-bug." Champ Clark
is his big man. I let him talk
awhile, until I could very readily see
that he knows about as much about
Clark's record as bear knows about
Sunday. l asked him if he knew
why Clark voted for the pension
grab, and he said no. I told him
Clark did it, to get the ex-Union SOL
diers' vote in his aspirations for the
presidency. And I Furthermore told
him that any man tina twould disre-
gard the principles of his party, and
the interest Of his people to that
extent, is unworthy Of the confidence
and support of an intelligent and
patriotic people.
Yours truly,
