The Mother.
BY Mrs. Eliphalet Fraser Andrews.

BY Mrs. Eliphalet Fraser Andrews.
As the men are marching by.
See her forward press and scan,
With a mothers anxious eye.
Every face and man by man.
Khaki-clad, alert and young,
Swinging In unbroken line
But she pleads, with stammering tongue,
''where is He? Oh. which is-mine?'
The young feet pass; the streets are clear:
Settled the dust: the echo dies;
And one by one, the stars appear
And smile into her fearful eyes.
In all that army, not to find
Her son! Her only and her own!
Then heaven sends to her sad mind
The thought, he is not hers alone.
The personal is swept aside;
She Sees him part of one great move;
Her heart is filed with sudden pride,
And opens to q larger love.
Tho selfish, narrow grief is gone:
She claims as hers that vanished line =
Each man Of all those men. her SON
mot one-oh. God-but all, ate mine!"
