Edgar z. Brooks, manager Of the
Associated Charities, has received an
interesting war letter from Arthur
Gleason, q prominent magazine and
book writer's. Mr. and Mrs. Gleason
have been in Europe since the war
broke out and Mr.. Gleason has been
engaged part Of the time in doing
propaganda work with some Of the
leading authors OF Europe. Mrs.
Gleason was decorated by the king
Of Belgium for work she did during
the first part of the war.
Arthur Gleason has devoted most
Of his time to social work and has
been associated with Jane Adams.
His two latest books are The Golden
Lads" and Young Hilda at the
Wars"
The following Is the letter received
recently from London by Mr.. Brooks:
we have many times spoken and
thought Of you in these recent months.
The other day came the report Of the
Associated Charities not as a remind.
er but as a token.
There are days when we should
give much to be in Honolulu far from
the strain and wildness Of the Eu-
ropean struggle which has now out
grown any dimensions Che human
mind can grasp, and which moves on
to some vast shrouded end. But for
all the horror and immensely Of it,
one is sure that the democratic ten
dency is everywhere being strength
ened. l look to see great extension
Of democratic control Immediately on
the declaration Of peace. Everything
Is laid ready for that eventuation.
THE old order of state church and
class system, low wages and bad
housing is doomed. But the change
will be, think, by orderly, patient,
step-by-step social-scientific reform.
The creative forces have got out OF
hand, and q revolutionary spirit is
abroad In Europe. I believe that the
war is only the mild curtain-raiser to
what will soon be shown.

it was impossible for him to do any

I'm Just sittin' here a-thinkin' of the
things 1 left behind
Say, ia hate to put on paper what's
been runnln' through my mlnd.
We've dug million trenches, we've
secured the country round
A meaner life this side O. hell I know
could not be found.
But still there's consolation--atten-
ton while 7 tell
When we die we're bound for heaven
for we've done our bit in hell.
We've scrubbed a million kitchens, so
the cooks could stew our beans.
We've stood hundred reveilles and
cleaned the camp latrines.
We've washed a million mess kits and
peeled a million spuds.
We've rolled million blanket rolls
and washed a million duds.
The number of parsdes we've made
It's very hard to tell.
But we'll not parade in heaven for
we've done our bit in hell.
When final taps are sounded and we
lay away life's cares,
And we do that last parade up those
shinin' golden stairs,
And the angels bid us welcome AMI
the harps begin to play.
And we draw a dozen canteen checks
and spend them in a day,
Then you'll hear st. Peter tell us with
a loud, ear-splittin' yell
"Heyi take front seat, there. boys
you've done your bit lin hell"

ROBBERS ESCAPE
Neffs Break Jail at Woodstock,
Va, and Posse in Persuit.

Paul and Dave Neff, members Of the
Neff band of alleged desperadoes, es-
capped Thursday night from the Shen-
andoah county Jail at Woodstock, Va.
Paul Neff was recently convicted ard
sentenced to four years in the peniten-
tiary for attempt to kill. At the same
term of court Dave Neff was tried on
the same charge, but the Jury failed to
agree. The second trial was to come
up at the January term.
While attempting to bring the leader
of the gang, Mike Neff. to jail last
July, for stealing, Sheriff Stoner was
assaulted on the streets of New Mar
ket, Va. A posse of citizens of Wood
stock, headed by Shenandoah county
officers, followed the Neffs to their
home at Helltown. where for several
days battle ragged, both the posse and
the Neffs using Winchester shotguns.
The Neffs made their escape through
the mountains and were not heard of
for several months, when a message
came from Ottawa, Ohio, saying they
had been captured. They bought prop
erty in Ohio, making the farmhouse an
arsenal While attending carnival in
Ohio they created a disturbance and
again resisted the officers. Three we're
captured but Nike Neff escaped. They
were heavily armed, each having three
automatic pistols. Paul and Dave Netf
and Boots" Frye were brought to
Woodstock for trial. Frye is out on
bail.
While in Jail at Woodstock officials of
the First National Bank at KitzmilIer,
Md. went to Woodstock and identified
the Neff boys as the robbers who had
entered the bank at KltZmiller in day
time, held up the bank employees and
escaped with over 50, 600 in cash. They
were dressed in the miners clothing
during this exploit.
The Neffs are still at large, although
they were pursued by the sheriff and
deputies in automobiles within a. few
minutes after making their escape,

of that OF 1908. The chief difference
is that the uprising which has led to
