MOTHERS

(By Amelia Josephine Burr in The
Outlook.)
Il hold no cause worth my sons life,'
one said
And the two women with her az she
spoke
Joined glances In q hush that neither
broke,
SO present was the memory of their
dead.
And through their meeting yes their
souls drew near,
Linked by their sons. men who had
held life dear
But laid it down for something deArer
still.
One had wrought out with patient
iron will ,
The riddle OF a pestilsnce, and won,
Fighting on stricken. till his work
was DONE.
For children Of tomorrow. Far away
In shell-torn soil Of France the other
lay,
And in the letter that his mother read
Over and over. kneeling az to pray,
''1'm thanking God with all my heart
today,
Whatever comes."-(that was the day
he died)-
I've done .S..a my bit to clear the road
In those two mothers. common pain
of loss
Blossomed in starry flowers Of holy
pride.
What thoughts were hers who silent
stood beside
Her son the dreamer's cross!

Miss Mabel #. Boardman, presi-
dent of the American Red Cross, is
what is known in impolite parlance as
a "crank" for sanitation and cleanli-
ness. She believes as firmly in this
principle in peace as in war and her
friends declare Miss Boardman be-
lieves cleanliness is not only next to
godliness. but comes near being first.
Her horror can be pictured then when
on a recent visit to the South, she
was obliged to view the shiftless state
of personal cleanliness in which the
daEkies, many of them. revel.
She finally caught a gray-haired
old negro smoking a villainOus corn
cob pipe on the steps of his cabin and
prepared to do battle with him ON
the spot.
How in the world do you expect

that? she shifted, congratulating her

COAST ARTILLERY WILL
 REMAIN AT FORTS.
Average of 21 Per Cent. Has Been the
 Loss to Each Company.

Major Adams of Bridgeport, in an address to the men at Fort Wright stated that the coast artillery of the state, the band and the sanitary de- tachment will remain at Fort Wright until the snow flies, and most likely longer.
 The 13 companies have been mus tered in the regular army and now there is no difference between the Con- pecticut coast artillery and the regu- lar army. An average of 21 per cent. has been the loss to each company, and now something must be done to fill up the ranks.
 Within a few weeks the regular en- listment station for the army in the start recruiting for all branches of the service to bring them up to their full strength.
 While drafting Of the entire National guard into the federal service has eliminated practically all necessity for maintaining the militia bureau as division of the war department. it is taken to do away with it entirely. In fact. since the bureau Is established by law, it cannot be dropped as a definite unit without revocation of the statute founding. it. What will be done in all proba biiity is that the number of officers now attached will be ma terially reduced, leaving only enough on duty to keep up the vital records of the bureau and to preserve its ma chinery.
 It is possible that some state may decide to raise additional regiments to take the place of their National guard units, but such action cannot have any influence upon the continuance of dis continuance of the militia bureau. If
