concerned, will only plant our usual

An Indian Hero.

"Chief Hawkeye," full-blood
Oswego Indian of Tulsa, who
has been n member of an Amer
lean ambulance corps in France
for the past year, has won the
cross of war for his bravery on
the battlefield and has joined
the American aviation corps now

first TO reach the base Of Hill

most desperate fighting on the
western front, and the chief
picked up the wounded with Ger
man shells falling like hail about
him.

GLADNESS.


What is gladness anyhow
who can tell us here and now
What is it that makes man
Smile as often us he can,
And another sit and frowni
Why should one rejoice In life
When his neighbor calls II strife
Why tragedian and clown
Why should one be merry here
And another all seyerei
We are fellows Of the clay,
We are born the sclf.sane way.
Share the sky and share the sun.
Each has tasks that must be done
In each life are hopes and fears
Joy = delights aud sorrow 8 tears
Why should one man call 1 fine,
And another sit and whine.
Nowing only death is fair,
Tinding life too rrea; a care
What is Il that makes men glad
Not the money TO be had
Men OF wealth have walked around
Tortured by the joys they fourd,
Wondering sadly all the while
Why poorer friend could smile.
Men beneath a weight Of caro-
Touched by sorrow and despair
Still have clung thruout their strife
Brayely to the Joy Of life.
Where il glsdncss TO be sought
Since It's never to be b9uyhti
Since the richest men must know
Now and then their hours OF woe
How can any man be sure
OF 8 JOY that shall endured
Gladness Is no distant goal
It's portion OF the sohl,
You must find u in yourself

the money that heretofore has gone

Perhaps no greater show of

There were some women who could

Some were experts when it came
to driving horses.
They could turn a corner on two
