 Stripes;
 You can almost hear 1t say To all the folks in our street, As the breezes make 1t dance: Look up and see my one blue We've got a boy in France!" The little flag on our house, It floats sometimes at night. And you can see it way up there When the street lamp shines just right and sometimes. long towards
 morning a When the cop comes by. pefchance. It signals with its one blue star: We've got a boy in France!" The little flag on our house Will wave, and wave, and wave Until our boy comes home again, Or finds in France his grave. Nay-tho' it's blue star turn to gold, Because of Wars grim chance. It still shall wave to say: Thank
 God,
 We've got a boy in France!"

IA large number of enlisted men

Palmero,-On the Conca dioro, the
golden shore of Palmero, scores Of
poor and sickly children will win their
way back to health this summer thru
the help of their American brothers
and sisters. the little children back
home. Of course it isn't possible to
say that the specific money contribut-
ed by junior members of the American
Red Cross will go to the relief of these
particular Sicilian children but as
what they contribute is a part of the
general fund and as this seaside home
is a part of the general work Of the
Aemrican Red Cross in Italy, it is not
a strain upon the imagination to ap-
ply one to the other.
The name of the new home is the
Ospizio Marino-or, to translate free
ly-the seaside n 1t has existed
for many years, but now the Ameri-
can Red Cross has taekn over one of
the three large buildings and has just
installed there thirty-two Children who
are in need of fresh air and salt wa
ter bathing. The house.is wonderfully
clean and the rooms large and airy.
1t is on the shore Of Palmero's beauti-
full bay with the picturesque noun
tain, Pellerigrino, rising behind. Ror
those American travellers who have
visited Palmero it will bring back
pleasant memories to say that it al
most adjoins the beautiful Hotel Villa
Igeia.
To begin with there will be thirty
two children and as these grow well or
better they will yield their places to
others from the city SO that before the
summer is over many children will
have been benefited from this, the
latest American Red Cross activities
to be established in Palmero.
