To this charge let me reply as an In

attitude but the betrayal of a trust: |
Do you think you alone can think |
correctly? Did the Almighty consti-
tute you the sole arbiter of what is /
right or wrong? Has no one else

inc such state of affairs in Germany

competent person in the United

force sent to Europe?
"Candidly, do you think you have
had sufficient military experience to
in any way qualify you for this posi-
tion?
why not leave the business to
competent, people who have been
trained to it instead of injecting your
self into the situation without the de-
sire of any of the authorities who
must be responsible for the success
or failure of the conduct OF the war?

lie at the bottom of S

Var came from those who had re- @
eived military rank as the result of

ut them in commands for which
hey were not fitted. Let us hope in

our part to this end. Make sacri- a
ce of your personal ambitions on

Seen 'em short and seen 'em tall.
Seen 'em big and seen 'em small,
But the finest one of all
Is Ma.
Best of all the girls on earth

Some have beauty, some have grace.
Some look nice in silk and lace,
But the one that takes first place
Is Ma.
Sweetest singer in the land
Is Ma.
She that has the softest hand
Is Ma.
Tenderest, gentlest nurse is she,
Full of fun as she can be,
An the only girl for me
Is Ma.
