I'VE hadn't any more than started
to do that very thing when a shell
caved in our roof. Some of us in the
party were killed and some Of us
wounded"
Close by the Georgetown boy was
another portable table and on It lay
an American soldier from Eckmann,

.The more sanguinary the conflict
the more decisive will be the ulti-

itself free, once and for all from in
sidious influences which have under
mined her political structure ana
hindered the establishment OF a
stable government 1t is absolutely
necessary that the atmosphere De

the revolutionary stage through
which the young republic is passing.
