the inspiration of countless poets and
songsters and the men themselves
have taken kindly to many Of them.
For a number of years 1.-The United
States Marines" which is one Of the
songs of the corps has been published
as anonymous. Since the verse has
been recently republished a number
Of times 1t developes that it is the
production of a Washingtonlan. the
late Maurice Brown Kirby, who was
also the author of Skipper Schley."
The initial verse of the United States
Marine gives its tenor:
You kin blow about yer hero volun-
teer,
An yer rough an ready. steady in
fantree;
You kin sing about yer Jackie an kin
cheer
Fer yer neat an handy. dandy
cavalree;
But Of all the sojer men l ever knew,
An OF all the sailor men ever seen,
When there's fun or fuss or fight, the
boy 10 keep in sight
Is Billy Blue, United States Marine.
An it's hi Billy, Billy. Billy Blue!
We think we've got little Job to do,
We expect to have a fight an we
want It started right,
SO we puts the startin' of it up to you

Hoppman. is another favorite, its first
verse as follows:
He's a soldier and sailor, every inch
He's a fighter for his country in 6
pinch;
And the foemen do not figure
When his fingers on the trigger
He's "go and get 'em Demon" that'i
a cinch.
Another favorite depletion of tn,

lines the deeds Of Uncle Sans splen-
did Soldiers Of the sea" from earliest
to latest victories, and is worthy of
preservation. Following is the first
verse:

And to keep our honor clean,
We are proud to claim the title
OF United States Marine.
The Marine Corps is rich in songs
written for its especial use, and many
OF them have been adopted Some OF
the best have been composed by the
amphibious warriors themselves. The
spirited "Chanson OF the United States
Marines" by Corporal Percy Webb,
U. s. NJ. c., has as its subject the
staunch motto OF the corps, "Semper

composed something over a year ago
by Ivor Novello, the twenty-five year
old English composer, who is one of
a group of Britons who have gone to
the foreign fields to entertain the SOL
diers in their leisure hours. He noted
the lack or some present-day song,
which appealed to the sentimental
longings of Tommy, and tried to fill
this need by an original composition.
The song seems to have fulfilled it's
mission as not only has It been used
by the thousands of English soldiers
but it has been transplanted into six
languages and is heard all through the
trenches and camps of the Allies. The
tuneful air is so easily caught that II
makes bid for instant popularity and
the words strike home to the heart Of
the men in the trenches. The chorus
tells the story:
Keep the home fires burning,
While your hearts are yearning;
Though your lads are far away they
dream OF home.
There's a silver lining
Through the dark clouds shining;
Turn the dark cloud inside out till
the boys come home.
Lieutenant VIM. II. Santelmann,
leader of the United States Marine
Band. the foremost military band in
the Unked States. was interviewed in
regard to what songs the American
fighting men would take with them
across to camp and foreign field. In
reply to the question he said:
"They will take with them their
own fine patriotic songs. first and
foremost OF which is the Star
Spangled Banner the accredited ma
tional song of this country. Then will
come America Columbia. Gem OF
the Ocean, and other purely national
and patriotic songs. Strange as II
may seem. the Civil War songs have
never lost their popularity among the
soldiers. and they will be sung on
