WELCOME TO VETERANS

(Henry A. Beach, veteran OF Com
nany G.. 48th New York Infantry,
and known as "the poet OF the pen
sion bureau" has written the follow
ing poem of welcome to the Conted-
crate Veterans who are holding their
reunion in Washington this week.
With pleasure l greet you as COM
rades today,
You men of the Southland who once
wore the gray;
There are some things, perhaps, that
we ought to forge.,
But we all must remember those
times when we met
When we met face to face, when we
met breast to breast
And passed the ordeal OF wars merry
test.
Midst rafting of shot and bursting
of shell , :,
We learned on those fields "War Is
hell, war is hell"
Brt YOU gave us as good as we gave,
blow for blow,
And each foeman soon gained some
respect for his foe. =,
And all of us felt the wars terrible
cost,
Both the army that won and the
army that lost.
Through everglade' swamp ana on
red battle plain.
MANY heroes went forth wao came
not again;
Vacant chairs at the freside, far
sadder than words.
Told the sorrows that followed the
clashing of swords.
But brotherly love now unltes neaf'
to heart.
With the sword and the bayone'
once thrust apart.
And where hatred once relgned no"
friendship holds sway,
And we c'asp hands as brothers. the
Blue and the Gray.
The North and the South in our tro'-
BILE with Spain :,
Stood shoulder to shoulder un'te'
again.
And new. nv dear comrades, we Wei
come you here;
Nav YOU have good time and tic
best of good cheer.
You sought to take Washington long
years ago.
We were not then quite ready ahd
would not have it so: ;,
But now, if you want it, just take l.
along,
Take it in picture and take IN song
Take in it's beauty and ,ong ma" Il
FIJI.
Your hearts with the pleasure 81
menoory's thrill:
Take all our parks, take all that YOU
see;
The city is yours, and we hand you
the key
Not nn.v the city, it's spires and Its
domes.
But we open to you our hearts an
our homes.
And now there is one thing more
would say,
As we stand here together, the Blue
and the Gray.
There are battles at hand we togeth'
err must fight,
The battles for progress the battle:
for right:
Let us make the world better through
brotherly love.
Till we all answer "Here" to the ro!
call above.

MUST BE NO sLACkERS.

The Gazette last week quoted from
q sonnet sung in Alexandria by ne
GRO minstrels during the civil war,
and suggested that the wisdom OF an
ode, referring to the negro was ap-
parent. We are now upon the eve OF
registration day, and the following
from another ode of war times is ss-
pecially applicable at this time:
,Twas in the days Of seventy-slX,
When freemen, young and OLD,
Fought for independence,
Like warriors true and bold.
Twas then: the glorious Stars anu
Stripes
In triumph did appear,
Defend it now, We. patriots, -
Like American volunteers.
The above is slightly changed from
the song of 1861 to make it applica-
HE to 1917. IT is hoped that all ellgl-
b]es for registration will perform a
duty thew owe their country at time
when the foundations of Liberty are
menaced by an autocracy when mas
brought the civilized world to arms
Tomorrow is the day for enroll
ment for the National SelectlVe
Draft, under the Presidents procia-
nation of May IS last.
Every man within the prescribed
age limits of q to 80 years, lncie-
sive, must register. There VIII De
no exemptions on account OF race or
nationality, for citizens or Aliens
Aliens and citizens must enroll; ne
groes and Cinnamon as well as
whites.
The only exceptions are for mem
bers of the Army or Naval service
or the Marine Corps; members Oh
the National Guard or Naval Militia
while in active service of the United
States: members of the Officers Re-
serve Corps, and Tor members vi 'he
Enlisted Service Corps in active SER
vice.
The penalty for failure to comply
with the law is one years lmprlson-
ment. No excuses will be accepted;
ignorance will not be defense. Any
one hindering or attempting to HIM
der the enrolment of somebody else
obliged to enroll will be subject to
the same penalty.
Those conspiring to defeat the
registration law will be more severe
ly dealt with. They will be classed
as national enemies and the punish
ment will fit the offense. The least
move in either direction. toward anti
draft conspiracy or hindering man
subject to the registration from en-
rolling. will be the signal for arrest.
