My dear baby boy with the golden curls.
That long wears ago were thine.
| wonder some times il You think of nc,
oh, soldier son OF mine!
For now you have come to mans estate,
Healthy al Stalwart and strong,
And it hardly seems that you are the lad
The years haze brought many troubles
l.ut my heart is unchanged by time.
And YOU are still my boy as of Old,
Oh, soldier son of mine!
And if the the not distant future.
The voice Of our country calls,
Go forth. my son, to your duty,
Nor fear the grim cannon balls:
Proudly .youll fight for OLD Glory.
Regardless of country or cline,
For victory must rest on your banner
Oh, soldier son of mine!
And after the war is over.
The battles fought and won,
May blessings rest upon you.
For duty bravely done:
And as the years past swiftly,
I'll pray the light may shine,
Forever on your pathway,
Oh, soldier son of mine!
Only Il few more sunriscs.
only Il few sunsets more,
When well leave this sea of trouble,
And sail to Gods own shore:
Where all is love Divine,
Oh, may we live together.
Dear soldier son of mine.

and with the pastor. she expressed
herself as prepared and willing for
the great change. Almost her last
conscious act was to join with her
nurse III prayer. Her going in the
very prime of life and when she was
so greatly needed is unspeakably sad,
but the sadness is heightened by her
testimony for Christ and her assur.

HOPES TO HEAL WAR HATE
Christian Endeavor Founder Says That
Is to Be Organization Task

DR.. Francis L. Clark, founder of the
Christian Endeavor movement. announced
recently that shortly after Billy Sunday
had completed his campaign for trail hit
ters' in New York the first Christian En-
deavor convention in New York since 1899
would be opened. More than 1000 dele
gates from all parts of the world, Dr. Clark
said, have expressed their intention of at
tending, in a communication to the Christian
Endeavor Headquarters in Boston.
I'VE expect to have great influence
after the war" Dr. Clark said, "in joining
the hands of the men who now call other
men their enemies, l remember while in
Cape Town, just after the close of the Boer
war. a Christian Endeavor meeting was
held, al which there were men from the
Boer as well as from the English ranks
Before the rally was over the men ciasped
hands while every one sang, "Blest BE the
Tie That Binds Our Hearts Through Chris
tian Love" 1t will be such work as this
that Christian Endeavorers throughout the
belllgerent countries will be expected to
do-to try to bring about this clasping of
hands. 1t will be interesting to observe
after this present war how easily the enmi-
ties will wear away"

SALESGIRLS' TEACHER
ANSWERS THEIR CRITIC
Denies Allentown Merchants
Statement They Are Failures
and Dwell on Matrimony

o. w. Metzger would better look OUT, Ever
since the genial Allentown shoe dealer threw
himself in a maelstrom Of feminine d.aaD-
proval by telling his fellow merchants that
soleswomen were failures life to him has
been one adjective after another
(. THE average woman making sale
spake Metzger. has nothing on her mind
but matrmony. They are not as efficient
as men" Which SO stirred Miss Mary T..
Eastwood. head Of the salesmanship class
1T the William Penn High School for Girls,
that she brought forth today copous argu-
ments, not only to prove that girls are SUI
perior to the youths as factors in selling,
but to show that they are not the sex with
matrimony on the brain
~ Take it all in all" said Miss Eastwood.
''and you will find that men really have
more thoughts of matrmony than girls. OF
course, the majority of women think of u
home and a husband But very often in
stead of the girl seeking the husband the
husband seeks the girl"
Miss Eastwood pointed out tine records
of girls in her course. Efficiently equipped
with an idea of the principles of selling
they are. she said sought by stores that
would not pursue them if they weren't
capable.
"The average girls tends strictly to busl-
ness, but. of course, she can't do so when
she is annoyed continually by men
should say that the problem Of the relative
efficiency of a salesgirl and a salesman
is not sex one but a business one"

I'VE have reason to believe that very
few of the legislators are acquainted with
the ramihcations of the narcotic drug
scourge in Pennsylvania. They do not
know of the terrific grip which the evil
has upon nearly all cities in the state.
They do not realize the imperative need Of
an institution TO care for the thousands

not progressed at all in the week the girl

Though the police version of their inter
view at Cocchi's shop makes mention of

when my daughter entered for her skates,
! have learned that when she went out the
second man followed her, and it was he un-
doubtedly who hired the taNiCab that has
been brought out as a clue, ! believe that
when my daughter left her skates at that
store her attractiveness was noted and a
plot hatched to kidnap her when she re-
turned"
