Iowa Discourages
War Marriages

Camp Dodge, Des Moines, Ia, June
25.-Thus far there are no Iowa "war
brides" as far as is known. The an
nounced policy of the officers to re-
fuse to accept married men for serv-
ice has, it is believed, checked for a
time at least the tendency for hasty
ceremonies performed on the eve Of
the departure of the bridegroom to
the front Several weddings, it has
been learned, have been postponed in
order that the bridegroom might de-
vote his entire time to the business
of fighting and give less thought to
the girl he left behind him with a
shiny, new wedding ring.

However, if the people Of Omaha
really would like to make the boys

place to say that the company funds
are low. Camp grub, while whole
some and nice, lacks many OF the lit
tie things which the boys were used
to find OH mothers table when meal
time came. Therefore it would be a
fine thing if fund, of say 500, were
sent each company commander with
instructions to put it in the company
fund, where it could be used where
it would do the most good,

In addition to this, what is true OF

beauty and joy. Alas! how
dreary would be the world if
there were no Santa Claus. 1t
would be as dreary as if there
were no Virginias. There
would be no child-like faith
then, no poetry, no romance to
make tolerable this existence.
1--WE should have no enjoyment
lexcept in sense and sight, The
eternal light with which child
hood fills the world would be
extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus?
You might as we'll not believe
lin fairies. You might get your
papa to hire men to watch all
the chimneys on Christmas eve
to catch Santa Claus, but even
if they did not see Santa Claus
coming down, what would that
prove? Nobody sees Santa
Claus, but that is no sign that
there is no Santa Claus. The
most real things in the world
are those that neither children
nor men can see. Did you ever
see fairies dancing on the
lawn? Of course not; but
that's no proof that they are
not there. Nobody can con-
ceive or imagine all the Won
ders that are unseeable in the
world.
you may tear apart the
baby's rattle and see what
makes the noise inside; but
there is a veil covering the un-
seen world which not the
strongest man, nor even the
united strength of all the
strongest men that ever lived
could tear apart. Only faith,
fancy, poetry, love, romance,
can push aside that curtain and
view and picture the super
nal beauty and glory beyond,
Is it all real? All, Virginia, in
all this world there is nothing
else real and abiding.
mo Santa Claus! Thank
God! he lives and he lives for
ever. A thousand years from
now, Virginia, nay, ten times
ten thousand years from now,
he will continue to make glad
