MARCHING

W WAKOF1ING
Hear them marching, marching
In each arm gun,
In each heart a question
Marching in the sun.
God grant our lads and mothers
The courage that knows no fear;
And bless the wives and sweet
hearts
Who give all for their flag so
dear.
o, God of War and Battles,
o, God of Hearth and Home,
Protest our dear defenders.
Wherever they may roam.
oh, hear the boys marching;
God bless them as they go.
Harkl the fife and drum-beat-
Hear the piccolo.

One feature Of the Front Door Lobby
Is the number Of women Of national
prominence who work in the capacity
OF congressional aides. Among these
Is Mrs. William Jennings Bryan
another aide is Mrs. Newton D. Baker
wife Of the Secretary Of War; still
another is Mrs. David r. Houston,
wife OF the Secretary Of Agriculture.
All types OF ability are to be found
IN the ranks Of the lobbyists. There
is the persuasive, persistent dauntless-
ness Of the chairman herself. There
is the exalted idealism Of such women
as Mrs. Glendower Evans, also of
Massachusetts,. There is the incisiye
political acumen of women like Mrs
Frank M Roessing. Of Pennsylvania.
and the cordial capacity to "handle
people, as shown by women like Miss
