Judge Hoar Gave Good
Advice to Soldier Son

tented spirit and encourage it in others.
Bear hardships without grumb1ing and
always try to do more rather than less,
sion to be patient much oftener than to
be brave.
THE duty of a soldier is unquestioning
obedience-but, beyond this, hope You
will cultivate a kind, respectful and con-
siderate temper toward your officers.
II hope you are going with a love for
your country and your cause, and With~a
determination to be faithful to every duty
you have undertaken. My boy, you
his honored life, never shrunk from
duty, however painful. nor from danger
to which duty called him. Be sure that
you do not discredit it! Neither by cow
ity, nor by selfishneSs. Remember al
ways your home and your frfends-those
who will welcome your return with pride
and joy if you shall come back in virtue
and honor; who viii cherish your memory
if, faithful an dtrue, you have given up
your life; but to whom your disgrace
would cause pang sharper than death.
Remember your obligations to duty and to
God Any may these thoughts keep you
from temptation and encourage and
strengthen in danger or sickness.
And now my dear boy, commend you
to God-and to the power of His grace.
May God bless and keep you. Think Of
your Heavenly Father in health and in
sickness, in joy and in sorrow. Go to
Him for strength and guidance. You are
very dear to our hearts-and your alb
sence leaves a great place vacant in our
home. If it be accorded to His will, may
you came back to us in safety and honor
but whatever is before us, may His
mercy and love be ever with you and His
grace be sufficient for you.
With deep affection, your father,
Samuel Hoar Corporal 48th Regt.,

to his son. who had just started for the
war between the States, December 18th,
1852 The suggestion was made that
Trench and Camp be asked to publish the

Three of the Y. M. c. A. buildings at
Camp Hancock have been dedicated by
appropriate exercises. Generals, col
onels, and .chaplains have taken part in
these exercises, have expressed their
appreciation, complimented the work
we'll begun and expressed high hopes
for continued success. The statements
made by these men by association
workers, and others, left no room for
doubt that the Y M c. A. placed first
and foremost the development Of the
spiritual life of men. On this develop

entire division
But all of the Y. nj. C. A. buildings
have been dedicated in a larger way
by the work accomplished in the past
months. The self acrifice of the Sec

mental and spiritual growth, the high
resolves made by some soldiers. the re-

And the days to come must prove, by

OUR WIVES
AND MOTHERS
}. EDGAR PRoBYN.

When the roll call of earth has been
sounded
And the guerdons of Life have been
won,
There'n be some who have fought Life's
battles
Never hearing the plaudits of men,
Who have stood by their post without
flinching,
Though the burdens were heavy to
bear,
And have faced all the odds like heroes,
With courage that naught can com
pare.
Their tasks have been humble and
lowly,
Nor sought they the glitter of fame,
They labored from dawn until sunset,
Flooding patiently on through the
game.
These are the heroes immortal,
Who sacrificed all they held dear,
Seeking only the welfare of others,
Undaunted by peril or fear.
Who are the uncrowned heroes,
Who fight till the battle is won?
These are the women who bore us
The wives and the mothers of men.
And when God in His Justice and mercy
Crowns His faithful with plaudit:
well done!"
Who first will receive His glad well
come p
The wives and the mothers of men.

ARE YOU A STACKER?

Once again the chief magistrate of
the United States has called upon his
countrynen to assemble themselves to-
gether in the respective places of wor-
ship, to thank God for His manifold
blessings.
There never can be a national
Thanksgiving, in the real meaning Of
the term, unless the individual feels
the impulse. We have observed the
form by the issuance of national, state
and municipal proclamations, but with
many citizens, the reading of the presi-
dents message is sufficient proof of
their gratitude.
Each succeeding year finds the
union" service more sparsely attend
ed. In fact, the union service itself
is sufficient proof of the abnormal
disregard of the day and it's purpose.
Why Should union" service be held
in any good-sized community Boosting
of number of churches? There are
not enough churches in Augusta to
contain the people if every individual
expressed his gratitude to God in pub
lie worship. -
Tt is because of the failure of so many
individuals that union" service be-
comes necessary. We quote union"
because there is very little of it. Peo-
Thanksgiving service as they should.
Otherwise several churches would be
forced to hold union services Ons
auditorium would not contain all.
What is the reason for so much indif-
ference?
WE ARE SLACKERS!
In the sight of the great God who
created the universe: in the sight of
His Son. who shed His blood for us;
in the sight of those who do not profess
faith in our religion,
WE ARE SLACKERS!
1t is an ugly thing to be known as a
Stacker SO far as military service goes.
Flow much more despica,,l lie must it he
in the sight of Jehovah to see His
creatures lacking in appreciation !;
thoughtless; irreverent: refusing to
obey the advice of their president
TO bow the knee in thanksgiving for all
the blessings received.
What nation under the sun has so
much cause for thanksgiving? For
three years, our allies bled and died
and we were unseourged by the awful
blight of war. For three years our
commerce. our industries and national
wealth exnanded abnormally at the ex-
nense of the warning nations until we
became money-mad and our national
conscience was stupefied. Through
the efficiency of the British fleet, our
ships were able to traverse all the seas
desnite the submarine. Through the
glorious sacrifices of the Russians, the
French. the British. the Italians. the
Runaanians Serbs and others, we were
permitted to go on, boarding and accn-
mulating.
Our crops have been abundant. In
natural resources, no nation is richer.
In education and science, our men and
women are leaders The blessings of
cur public school system should give
every loyal American cause for album
dant gratitude. Our political freedom

the blessing of democracy for which
we are again f-ghting-was won after
years of strife and bloodshed. The
solidarity of the nation was achieved
through Unreasonable sacrifice. Our
land is flowing with milk and honey
and the downtrodden of the world have
found here haven of refuge. The
gospel of the brotherhood of man is
sweeping the world with terrific force
and we are emerging into the dawn of
higher civilization.
Is there not cause for national
thanksgiving? Have we not been fay-
ored of the Almighty?
One hundred million voices answer,
Yes. God has been good to us. Then
let us go to our appointed places of
worship and offer up our hymns of
praise and prayer Or, failing that, let
US stand or kneel for a few moments,
wherever we may be, and voice our
gratitude to God.
DO NOT BE A Stacker!
God of our fathers known of old!
Lord of our far-flung battle line;
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine;
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet
Lest we forget!
