ST. PATRIck's DAY.

Here's for small bit Of green on the
coat of me,
Here's to the harp and let nobody
jeer;
The harp and the shamrock today
have the vote Of me;
Everyone's Irish one day in the year.
The Irishman! Faith, but envy the
wit of him,
Feel for his sorrows and grieve for his
woes;
I dip down my hat to the glory and
grit of him,
Bedad! and I'm glad not to be of his
foes.
The Irishman? Sure and he's like all
the rest of us,
He's living on earth and his wings
haven't grown;
He's as bad as the worst and as good
as the best Of us,
So who is the one to be throwing a
stone?

Here's to the harp! May its song
never cease!
Here's to the lads who have cherished
them trustily!
Here's to the Sod, may it flourish in
peace!
So fasten the shamrock right here and
take note of me;
My sticks a shillelagh, my color is
green;
Never mind what tomorrow may be
on the coat. of me,
Today March is March and the days
Seventeen!

THE sHAMRock's TURNING RED.

The Irish heart is tender and the Irish
lass is true,
With lips that dare the roses and eyes
that shame the blue,
But her laughing voice is silenced; her
eyes are filled with dread,
For the dear old isle is Swallowed, and
the Shamrock's turning red
Dark days for struggling Ireland, and
darker still the cry
Of her naidens as they wonder with
downcast, dewy eye,
And scan the long war bulletins that
register the dead,
For her lovers in the trenches and
the Shamrock's turning red.
What to her is King or Kaiser or Pres
ident or Queen?
What to her the orange, yellow or the
wearing Of the greene"
When the air is filled with mystery,
and voices overhead
Are whispering requiem for Ireland
silent dead.
Weeping on the banks of Shannon
where the Irish lilies grow;
Where her brave, young soldier laddie
first told her he must go;
With the fighting blood of Ireland
bravely shining in his eye,
She is clinging to the memory of her
laddie's last goodbye.
Brave, bonny maid of Ireland with a
love so deep and true,
God grant in gracious mercy that your
lad come back to you,
But if wars cruel fate decree in for
eign land he rest,
May they find a sprig of Shamrock to
lay upon his breast.
Brave, bonny lass of Ireland with your
face as white as snow,
Weeping on the banks of Shannon
where the Irish lilies grow;
No wonder that your heart is crushed
and lowly hangs your head,
When all light has turned to darkness
and the Shamrock's turning red.

consumers of Grand Forks, urging

While Postmaster j. P. Hebert
states that the patriotic spirit Of the
young men Of Morgan City and vic
Unity is responsible for the large en-
listment which he has sent in to the
recruiting Office at New Orleans, his
activities and assistance in the mat

Department in letter from the Ad-
jutant General, Robert C. Davis.
The Adjutant General says in part,
II wish to inform you that the ma
terial assistance you have rendered
the recruiting service is deeply ap-
preciated by the Department"
In speaking Of the communication
from the War Department, Post
master Hebert claims that he is de-
serving Of no credit in the matter
but that the patriotic ferver of his
young friends has made it possible
for him to assist them in their wish
es to answer the call Of their coun-
try. The citizens of the community
feel that credit is due both the vol
unteers for their patriotism and to
Mr.. Hebert for his interest and ac-
tivity which directed and made pos
sible the fulfillment of the wishes
of his loyal young friends.
