For the Honor Of Oar Countiy.

For the honor of our country,
we are going away to fight; the
president has called us and we
know that he is right. That our
country should be defended is a
fact that we all know, and to this
end we're waiting and ready now
to go. The boys in khaki are
just waiting for orders to march
away to win the victory for the
dear old U. S. A. Our country's
ships are waiting to sail across
the sea to place us on the firing
line for honor and liberty; we're
going into the trenches with tfe
courage our fathers had before,
to bring back home the victory
to Americas glorious shore, and
to this end we'll fight in a far
away distant land; protect us
while we're there, Oh God, by
Thy almighty hand; and when
the guns begin to roar and the
Germans begin to shout, we will
never lose our courage, of this
we have no doubt, for we are 60
ing to fight with Pershing and
we shall obey his will, and he'll
take care of us while we're fight
ing Kaiser Bill. The Kaiser is a
bully and he needs to be tanned
down, and, believe me, he will
get it before he leaves his own
home town. He'll wish he'd
never heard of war when Uncle
Sam gets through, for he has
committed a most unjust wrong
t. our country and to you. The
Germans are a nervy bunch, but
we are nervier still; they will
never live to see the day that
they can break our will; we will
never give up till the battles
won, no matter what the price,
or the cost we have to pay or the
awful sacrifice. Well depend
upon our leaders, whoever they
may be, to lead US through this
struggle to righteousness anG
liberty. Give US the courage,
Lord, the kind that never fails
for Thou knowest that right anC
might ever prevails. Thou know.
est that we are justified in what
we are about to do, and for this
end we'll fight under the Red
White and Blue. And when the
battles over and the victory VIZ
have won, guide US back to oul
native land, each mothers loving
son. -Robt. L. Patrick, a Nor
gan county boy at Camp Shelby

Character writers and others should cut out the "By
Heck and By Ned" when referring to the effort of the
ruras toward the gentle accomplishment of profanity
The average countryman of this day would blush with
shame at such feeble efforts If our writers would get
out and mnge with the real farmers of the land they
would find them possessed, when so inclined with vo-
cabuay of words warranted to do justice the most
