Horses In War Time

By "Scots Grey"
(For the Blue Cross Hospitals)
I'm only cavalry charger,
And I'm dying as fast as I can
(For my body is rddled with bullets
They've potted both and my man,
And though I've words to express it,
I'm trying this message to tell
To kind folk who work for the Red Cross
o. RlsasS help tPe-l Niue one as well!
My master in thousand,
And loved him with all this poor heart
(For horses built just like humans,
Be kind to them-theyll do their parts
So please send out help for our wounded,
And give us word in your prayers;
This isn't so strange as you'd fancy
The Russians do it in theirs
I'm only cavalry charger,
And my eyes are becoming quite dim
Il really don't mind though I'm "done for"
So long as I'm going to him.;
But first l would plead for my comrades,
Who're dying and suffering, too
Oh please help the poor, wounded horses!
Pm sure that you would-if you knew!

THE NEW DANGER.

The people of the United States were
stunned yesterday when the an
nouncement came that President Will
sen had communicated with each one
OF the warning nations looking to-
wards peace. Later, there was a
stronger and more fearful surprise
when 1t became known that Secretary
Lansing gave curious reasons for
sending the note.
The United States is on the brink of
war, and she is not in danger of war,
both according to Mr.. Lansing. The
nation will likely have to take part In
the European struggle, and still she
must be the great neutral of the earth.
According to President Wilson. this
Is the last great war in which the
United States can remain neutral. and
this is also the last great war-which,
OF course, means neutrality. If no fight
comes.
The entangled official life of the
United States is searching for light.
They have been lounging around
pushed backwards and forwards-and
now we come to the place where our
words surprise even ourselves. II the
United States was on the brink of war.
It seems that the people themselves
should know something about it. If
we are not in danger Of war, likewise
the people should feel secure. But the
folks of this great country do not know
how to feel.
II the worst must come, let us have
the full facts.

The III. C. L, Spirit.

H. c. L. means many things among
which are the high cost of living; the
high cost of loving, and when it is
written-HCl, it means a chemical
term. But, this mercantile business
conducted on the Seaboard Air Line
railway in this section passeth under
standing. The renowned soft drinks,
around the world and back for a
nickle, go at 10 cents on the train. The
favorite cigarette may sell at 10 cents
al your drug store, but it's IS cents on
the train. And so on, innumerable
instances.
Of course. in order to save a few
cents it would be folly to carry along
all the articles you might need on the
train.
But it appears to US that some OF
the well established articles with their
standard price would kick on this H.
c. L. hold-up. They may charge you
commission on making change

JUDGE LITTLEJ0HN.

The death of Judge w. W. LambdiI
Of the federal court of the southern
district of Georgia, has created va
cancy. The Times-Recorder urges the
name of Judge 2. A. Littlejohn OF this
city as a man who would fill the posi-
ton with signal honor for his state
and country.
The name of Judge Littleiohn was
given very serious consideration by
President Wilson at the time Judge
Lambdin was appointed last year. The
qualifications of Judge Littlejohn need
nc comment-in fact the man himself
is known to the people, and could they
express in some substantial way their
opinion of Judge Littlejohn 1t would
virtually be a unanimous request that
he be appointed.
Judge Littlejohn has made no COM
ment on the matter. His friends should
take the matter in hand Immediately,
and bring facts directly to the atten-
ton of President Wilson.
A jurist and a gentleman-he is
Judge Littlejohn.

According to the official state

Austrians have again beaten back
the Rumanian offensive in the
neighborhood of the Bodza Pass
and have taken back all of the posi-
tons they held just before the rail-.

Northeast of Tulghes the Slavs
have been more successful, accord

gained some ground, but at heavy
cost to themselves.
North of the Somme the British
have been again attacking the Ger

Sars and between that town and
Guedencourt. Here, says the Ber-

broken down under the concentrat-

managed to drive home a successful
attack against the little village of

The Italian front for the most

The Gorilla sector has seen little
artillery fighting, but no infantry
