their duties and the facilities provided
for them. We know the condition Of
the majority Of our school buildings, and
how sadly We need new ones at many

The Things We Dread.

1t isn't crossing the ocean
And facing the hardships we fear;
1t isn't the dread OF starving,
Nor the sting Of the farewell tear.
1t isn't the whine OF the bullet
AS it passes our body or head;
1t isn't the thought of dying,
For none of these things we dread.
It's you, friends back home, we are
leaving
And the thought Of suffering you'll
do,
And the tears you will shed while we
are fighting,
Although we plead with you not
to,
We know when our mail is DELAYED
some,
You'll give up and think we are
These are the worries we'll have.
friends,
These are the things that wen
dread
But why borrow trouble beforehan-
But why borrow trouble before
hand
Just look on the bright side of life,
And pray to the One who is able
TO lead US safe through the strife.
Don't think that its hard we must
leave you, ~
But think how heroic instead,
and well pull through with smiles on
our faces
For then we'll have nothing to
dread.

Rainbow Division Shaping Up,
Fine And Anxious For Battle

Washington, Dec. 24th-.Over
thcrc,' where hate and horror dwell,
Americans of the Rainbow division
and other units this Christmastide are
anxious for battle.
Only small portion of the United
States forces has been tested by fire,
but reports to the War Department
showed to-day that training is pro
ceeding SO well that when the call of
battle comes, the Raibow-shaw-
ing the colors of nearly all the
States-along with other organiza-
tions, will give good account of them
selves as Americans have always
done.
The Rainbow boys are we'll and
happy as a set of men could be whose
steps stray far from home in the
holiday season. They are well sup
piled, too. The knick-knachs from
home have arrived and have been dis
tributed, but even were they not,
the Sammies would not want.

we would at home," wrote the sor

with a view of keeping the allied
forces on the alert. However, none
of the engagements recorded in the
west were of more than local impor-
tance. 1t would appear that as a
forerunner to the German offensive
heralded to be launched in the west,
an intensive peace propaganda is to
be initiated.
Careful examination of the situa-
ton reveals that the enemy is again
preparing to sue for peace before
victory
Information from various sources
confirms the reports that the Ger
mans would have the world believe
that the military situation is such
that they are able to dictate terms of
peace. They, therefore, threaten
that unless this dictated peace is ac-
cepted by the allied powers ard our
selves, the German forces now being
concentrated on the western front
will break through the allied line in
the west.
"The various reports of immediate
peace proposals by the Germans on
seemingly favorable terms should not
for moment, induce us to slacken
our preparations for war.
1T is only necessary for US to re-
call that during the Christmas season
of last year the Germans put forth
IEry similar Dpncc rnmprS
"ln considering the general MILL
tary situation in it's true light, 1t must
be understood that the Gemans rea-
llZe that within a short time our ar
mics vii, form the principal body of
fresh strategic reserves remaining on
our battlefields of Europe.
1T is our duty, therefore, in look
| ing to the future, to realize that if
we are to fulfill the pledge we made
on entering the war, if we are to
! hight this war to a successful cunclu-
SION, we must assume the full respon-
sibility which rests upon US. We arc
| the freshest in the struggle; we have
| Ihe reserve man power and the re-
| serve mechanical power.
Our armies constitute the re-
serves of victory.
I'm Russia, the armistice negotia-
tlons having been concluded, peace
negotiations are about to be entered
upon.
Reports of the dissatisfaction of
large element of the Russian popu-
lation, especially in southern and CEN
tral Russia, with the terms of the
armistice, has led to the formation Of
an active opposition, which it is BE-
lieved will endeavor to resist all al,
tempts to enforce the proposals
agreed to by the Lenine govern
ment."
