TIE KID Has GONE no TIE COLORs.

THE KID HAS GONE TO THE COLORS.
(By w. NJ. HerscheIl, in the indianapolis
News.)
The Kid has gone to the COlors
And we don't know what to say;
The Kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the Flag today.
We thought him a child, a baby,
With never a care at all,
But his country called him man-sfze
And the Kid has heard the call.
He paused to watch the recruiting,
Where, fired by the fife and drum.
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that 1t whispered: Come!
The Kid. not being a Stacker,
Stood forth with patriot joy
To add his name to the roster
And God we're proud of the boy!
The Kid has gone to the COlors
1t seems but a little while
Since he drilled a schoolboy army
In a truly martial style.
But now he's a man, a soldier,
And we lend him listening ear.
For his heart is heart all loyal,
Unscourged by the curse OF fear.
His dad, when he told him. shuddered,
His mother-God bless herl-cried;
Yet blest with a mother-nature,
She wept with a mother pride.
But he whose old shoulders Strengthened
Was Granddad-for memory ran
To years when he, too, a youngster
Was changed by the Flag to man!

Building No. II boasts of one of the
best if not the best orchestra in Camp
Funston. The orchestra was organ
lied and is being conducted by Pri-
vate Burger of Co. No. 8, 164th depot
brigade, who, before he was drafted,
was a solo violinist with the St. Louis
Symphony orchestra and a leader of
no ordinary ability. Mr.. Burger has
gotten together a dandy bunch of boys
all real musicians as well as good
fellows. They, enjoy playing and they
play good stuff and when they per-
form the crowd won't let them quit.
We are hoping our hardest that all
these musicians will stay behind and
Wen have good music all winter.

With Paris boulevards echoing with
''vives" for American troops our inter-
est in the welfare Of our ally vastly
increases, and the facts are not lack
ing to encourage the belief that she Is
already on the road to recovery from
the blow of invasion by ruthless en-
emy.
One Of the most important devel-
Opments is the announcement that
one of the largest banking institutions
in America concerned with foreign
trade, the Guaranty Trust company
of New York, has opened q Paris
branch to handle the rapidly increas-
ing volume of French business.
This action may surprise many per-
sons who had thought of France as
bowed under a calamitous invasion.
The bank, however, gives figures ihdl-
eating that France Is not only meeting
her military and civilian problems with
a stout heart and never failing cour-
age, but is re-establishing her export
business with this country.
In 1914, the year of the outbreak OF
the war, imports from France to- this
country totaled $141, ,446, ,252. This to-
tai was reduced to Stiles. .74O in 1915,
but last year the value Of French i'm
ports to the United States rose to
$1O2,O77, ,O6O.
"a nation that can achieve such
commercial recovery while her terri
tory is being ravished by the invader
says the Trust company's statement,
possesses recuperative powers which
Justify the belief that she will emerge
from the present conflict prepared to
meet and solve triumphantly the prob
TENS which confront her.
The commercial and Industrial rec
ord Of France, following past wars, in
dicates that she should recover quickly
from the actual physical destruction
inflicted in the present conflict. The
reconstruction Of railroads. the erection
of factories to replace those destroyed,
and the replacement of the mechanism
Of Industrial activity that will be re-
ouired and that is in part already
planned, offer a peculiarly inviting
field to American capital and enteS
prise. Tentative steps have already
been taken by representatives of Amer.
lean engineers and business men in this
work.
Aside from it's attractive business
aspect, the enlistment of American
money and effort in the great task OF
reconstruction that will remain at the
end of the war will tend to cement still
more closely the ties that bind the two
great republics together, and will en-
able Americans to discharge in par
the debt thcy owe to France for hel
friendly interest in the welfare ant
progress Of the United States from
the beginning Of its life as a nation
In judging the Industrial status O.
any nation, its production and con
sumption of coal, iron, and steel ant
. the growth of its transportation sys
TENS are highly significant factors.
In 1859, French industries consumed
q million tons Of coal, of which 13.
millions were taken from home mines
In 1912, the consumption was 81 mil
lions, of which Al million tons wer
taken from home mines.
In 1859, the French output Of cas-
iron was 1,38O,OOO tons, and Of stee
100000 tons. In 1914, France pre-
auced 5,311,OO tons of cast iron an
4,695,OOO tons Of steel.
