CASE OF BR0THERLY LOVE:
New King Of Greece Once Hurled
Challenge At Crown Prince, But 30.
Latter Declined to Accept.

"A good story is told concerning the
new King Alexander Of Greece, be-
tween whom and his elder brother,
Prince George, there Is not, nor ever
has been, any love lost. One day
shortly after his fathers accession to
the throne shoot was in progress on
the royal estates near Athens, and
during the luncheon hour discussion
arose on accidents at shooting par
ties.
mo man has ever peppered me in
mistake for a pheasant" remarked
Prince George. IF anyone were fool
ish enough to do SO I would shoot him
dead on the spot"
Shortly afterward, when sport had
been resumed, the crown prince felt a
shower of shot rattle round his gait
cred legs, and, turning in a fury to
find whence 1t proceeded, saw his
brother with a gun leveled in his d.
rection.
1--WE got another barrel ready"
said Prince Alexander. 'Will you
shoot?'
The challenge was not accepted.

Maid Of Orleans Annexed,

More annexations! This time the
German victim is Joan of Arc. Yes, the
Germans are actually claiming the pa.
tron saint Of France as a fellow-coun-
trywoman, says the London Chronicle.
They have acquired large quantities Of
statuettes and images of the maid in
the French towns which they still oc-
cupy. In one case, at least, they Or
dered a manufacturer to make dupli-
Gates of his casts. The Frenchman
was astonished, and asked the reason
of this devotion. "Oh," was the reply,
from a Bavarian officer, "Joan Of Arc
Is not French, since she was Lor-
rainer, and Lorraine Is German. Ger
tainly she prayed to heaven for the
success of our arms, for they are d.
rected against her mortal enemies; the
French, who delivered her up, and the
English, who burned her!"

CATCHING BULLETS IN AIR
This 10 Latest Sport Of British AVA.

Tales From TrencheS

In a London newspaper Is printed
an account of a British aviator flying
over the German lines and catching a
bullet that had stopped dead still for

fore turning from an ascending into
descending missile. Although the news
paper prints no photograph of the
bullet, nor even of the pocket into
which the aviator placed it, the odd
story has other elements Of truth suf-
f1cient to prove the authenticity Of the
whole narrative, remarks the New
York Herald. 1t has swarm of Ger
man bullets "whinin, :" this is indis-
putable, because that has been the
characteristic of all Teutonic bullets
ever since the battle of the Marne. 1t
has the Germans trying to swing" the
flier; here is the typical Teutonic at
tempt to induce suffering through
manning.
But the greatest evidence Of truth is
the final sentence explaining how "the
aviator reached quickly, grabbed the
bullet and put it in his pocket" He
grabbed" 1t quickly merely because
he was flying at the rate Of $50 miles
an hour, but he put it In his pocket
because a whining German bullet that
had been fired from rifle and had
gone through the superheated air sur:
rounding the aviator was as white hot
as Munchausen would be If he were
alive to castigate those who doubt the
newest tale from the trenches.

Crawford county people who sub.
scribed for Liberty bonds Of the sec.
ond issue have been wondering when
these bonds will be delivered to them.
There are millions of these bonds to
be delivered and of course it requires
considerable time to have them en-
graved at the bureau Of engraving in
Washington. Crawford county banks
received letters the first of this week
from the federal reserve bank in Chi
cago stating that bonds will be for
warded at the earliest possible date.
Those who have paid for bonds in full
should not be surprised or anxious
about them, even if they are not de-.
livered before January LIST. The bank
with which you settled your subscrip-
ton is responsible to you for the bond.

PATRIOTIC POEM.

Poem read by J. B. Lyon at the un-
yelling of the soldiers monument on
Friday.
Twas over fifty years ago,
Those brave Oys marched away,
1tI11nf6Ma righteous cause,
EaiaSt those who wore the gray.
sey had no fear Of shot or she'll,
E5Of the lannon's sullen roar;
they knew no hate for the boys in gray
n But they loved the old flag more.
Tho dark were the early days of war,
Their courage did not wane;
Tho defeat oft followed battle
fought,
They fought TIL they won again.
In times Of defeat there arose the cry,
The war for the north is lost"
\ Said the boys in blue, We'll win the
fight"
And twas said without idle boast.
They fought their way through the
wilderness,
Ready to give their blood,
I For the good old flag they loved so
& we'll,
Anu I'LL tut WHICH IL SLOOu.
Some followed Sherman on his march
From Atlanta to the sea,
While others fought with silent Grant
Against the hosts of Lee.
Il does not matter where they fought,
They did their duty we'll.
/ Result was final victory,
We all delight to tell.
i
4 When at last the war was over,
And our land enjoyed sweet peace,
They put away the guns of war
On life they took new lease.
They turned back to the office,
The workshop and the pillow,
That the country which they fought to
$S5 Might grow and prosper now.
4 Az years have passed but few are left,
For death has claimed them fast;
The winters frost that never melts
Upon their brows is cast.
Tho time has caused their eyes to dim,
Their steps may seem to lag;
They still would give what strength
remains
To defend their country's flag.
But the toll Of that war was frightful,
And many who went forth then,
D Went down on the field of battle
And never returned again.
4 So today as grateful people,
In response for what they've done,
We have reared this beautiful struc-
ture
To their greatness-of lasting stone.
Il And when on this work in the future
ss We shall look with unstinted pride;
+ We will think Of our nations defend
ers,
Who were not found wanting when
tried.
y All honor to those who fell in the
strife.
And to those who are living today.
All honor to those who are. going forth
& now,
The sons of the blue and the gray.
