Beyond the Barrier

Upon oar shield the staining rust
Has gathered deeper than ne knelc;
Upon our blade the drifting dust
Has dimmed and duiIed the ancient hue;
A nd zoe hare flou,dered through the pail
As children, who hare lost their ray;
BIT somewhere, underneath 1t al,
The Vital Spark still traits the day.
The ruggcdness of ancient mould
Is hjdden nor by softer dreams;
The braucr line lOe used to hoId
Nag iCager Uherc the red flash GIcGms;
But Chen the Showdown comes at last
Beyond control OF 'cOrd or pen,
Remembrance of braver past
Shall come TO aoake as up again.
The ancient spirit Of the clan
Nay shrink, Mt times, before the call.
BewIidcrcd, in the ,caiting span,
Before the rolsing lash shall fall;
But when The light flares dorm the field
Beyoud doubts fndl bo1vicade,
The ,ust shall come from of the shield
The dust shall fiutter from the blade.

the fragile aspect of pitching arms.
The trouble is that of them figure that one game

Washington, May 1S.-Final action
was taken by Congress on the war
army bill, the second of the major
measures of the war. The Senate, by
a vote of 65 to 8, adopted the confer
ence report. accepted by the House.
Vice President Marshall and Speaker
Clark will sign the bill and send it to
the White House for President VIII
sons approval. AS finally approved,
the bill provides for raising by selec-
tive draft war army in increments
of 100000 men from 81 to 80 years
of age. 1t also authorizes without di-
recting the President to raise volun-
teer forces which Col Roosevelt de-
sires to take to France, and greatly
increases the pay of all enlisted men.
Machinery to register and draft the
first 100000 men already has been set
up by the War Department. Immedi-
ately after the President signs the bill
he will by proclamation designate the
day for registration of the 100000
or more men of the prescribed age.

Hindenburg's efforts to stop the Brit
shown by the fact that the last Ger
mans who held out in Bullecourt have
been captured and the whole village
is in British hands.
On the French front German attacks
were incessant but vain, Paris an
nounces. This desperate German
counter offensive against the French,
now in its third day, is considered in
competent quarters in Paris as intend
ed to mask a further retirement of the
German first line on other parts of the
front, says a Paris dispatch. During
the last few days the number of fires
in villages behind the German front
north and south of ST. Quentin has
greatly increased.
St Quentin itself has been in
flames for some time AS it has been
a German practice to burn all towns
and villages before abandoning them,
these general conflagrations are con-
sidered as almost sure indications of
a big retreat to new line of defense.
Incessant fighting has been going
on at Bullecourt for two weeks. The
position of the Australian troops in
the Hindenburg line east of Bullecourt
between that village and Queant, is
now more secure than at any time
since they first penetrated the
trenches of the defense system. Que
ant is practically uncovered from the
west, and the next attack in this re-
gion is very likely to be on that viii
lage.
The Italians have made further
progress in their drive pushing ahead
