TO WARS CREDIT.

THE war has done some good, at
least, for il has manned the foulest
beast that ever led on men; Booze
is the hungry monsters name, and gov
ernments have kicked its frame again
and yet again. The divers governments
uprsse and said, "lf we would swat the
foes, and knock them galley east, our
soldiers must be sober guys, without bad
tastes or bloodshot eyes. and so well
curb the beast No man is fit to bleed
and die who's tanked himself witt, old
red eve. no soldier should be stewed;
and so, if We would hope to win, well
have to put the lid on gin, and all OF
Booze's brood We read about the
millions slain, of dead men lying in the
rain, and OF wars horrors yawp; but all
the dead o'er whom we weep make but
trifling little heap compared with
Boozes crop. The governments are
kicking Booze with large steel spikes
upon their shoes, they slug him with 4
brick; and Booze is scared and hollow
eyed, he skulks where once he strobe
in pride. the heart within him sick The
beast is doomed, so lie, it die; the war
has shown the critter why it's neither
safe nor sane so we may view tho
worldwide fray more patiently, the
while, and say, The war is not in vain.'
