THE KID HAS GONE TO THE
C0L0RS.

C0L0RS.
The kid has gone to the Colors
And we don't know what to say:
The Kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the Flag today.
We thought him child, baby,
With never a care at all,
But his country called him man size,
And the Kid has heard the call.
He paused to watch the recruiting
Where, fired by the fife and drum'
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that it whispered:
"Come!"
The Kid, not being a Stacker,
stood forth with patriot JOY
To add his name to the roster
And God, we're proud of the boy!
The Kid has gone to the Colors;
II seems but little while
Since he drolled a schoolboy army
In truly martial style.
But now he's a man, a soldier,
And we lend him listening ear.
For his heart is a heart all loyal,
Unscourged by the curse of fear.
His dad, when he told him, shud
dered,
His mother-God bless her!-cried
Yet. blest with a mother nature,
She wept with mother pride.
But he whose old shoulders straight
ened
Was granddad-for memory ran
To years when he, too, youngster,
Was changed by the flag to a man

Helena, Dec. 1S.-Prisoners in the
state penitentiary at Deer Lodge will
make socks and sweaters for the SOL
diers, provided the Red Cross society
will furnish the necessary materials.
Arrangements for this were made by
the state board of examiners when it
adopted motion offered by Attorney
General S. c. Ford. that the state pur-
chase two machines for knitting socks
and one machine for knitting sweaters
to be used at the state prison if the
material for the articles is contributed.
MANY of the prisoners at Deer
Lodge are anxious to do this work"
said Attorney General Ford. land hay
ing the machines and an abundance
OF labor the socks and sweaters can
be turned out in quantities.
Il was impressed by the fact that
there is a great demand now for ban
dages. 1t is slow tedious work making
socks and sweaters by hand, and it
seemed to me that greater efficiency
could be obtained il the women would
devote their time to making bandages
and let the prisoners make the socks
and sweaters on the machines
