AMERICAN PRISONERS
OF WAR In GERMANY

TTnconouered and unafraid, the Ameri-
can soldiers and sailors who are held pri-
soners-of-war in Germany are racing
their captivity like men and are making
the best of it. Their chief thought is OF
the folks back home and how to assure
them that they are safe and cheerful.
Making Life Endurahie.
For more than three years the Associa-
tion has been doing what it can to make
more endurable for the prisoners of-War

Europe and Asia. The number OF prison
ers Is now estimated at 5000, 600. Since
America has entered the war, the work
has included a hundred or more Anleri-
cans. Most of them were captured by
submarines. Some of them We're taken
to Germany before the war and have been
held there ever since.

REVElLLE.

Listen to that bugle sounding
On that cursed, hateful strain:
The notes of it are pounding
On my weary, restless brain.
Those who hear it win not wonder
At the vision that I see
When am reused from peaceful
slumber
BY the notes of Reveille.
In my dreams hear the wailing.
OF that melancholy strain,
And just as the stars are paling,-
That call sounds out again.
Not until this strife is ended.
And my soul at last is free,
viii my dreams cease to be rended
BY the notes of Teveille.

gave THANKS
SERVICE AT THE FIRST BAPTIST
CHURCH THURSDAY
EVENING.

On Thursday evening last there
was held at the First Baptist church
the delayed Thanksgiving service.
Not a great crowd was present, but it
is hoped that those who failed to
come were rendering thanks at
home. The program was followed as
1t had been prepared for the week
before at the high school auditorium.
Rev. w. III. Moore very ably presided
and reminded the people that we
were to thank God for the wars end
ing. Rev. w. S. Argow led in prayer
and also read the presidents procla-
nation. A beautiful trio was render
ed by Mrs. Hovde, Mrs. Runchey and
Miss Smith. Rev. l.. l.. Mann read
part of Gen. Pershing's Thanksgiving
address. Rev. HI. w. Minish read
preached by Rev. c. McKibbin and
was a splendid citation of reasons
why we should be thankful and a call
to nobler living. Hon. Ira Blewitt
gave a clear cut and in every way
helpful address on some of the i'm
mediate problems of reconstruction.
The service closed with singing of
America" All were glad for the
service and loud in praise of the adj
dresses and music. 1t was a service
worthy of a much larger attendance.
But for the small attendance it was
a fit expression of Thanksgiving by
the communicated. L. L. Mann.

Does The Brunswick
Cost More?

No. In spite of it's overwhelming
advantages, the price is comparable
with those lacking Brunswick ideas.
Model for model, the Brunswick has
been kept at the usual prices. Yet it
could easily command more.
This instrument is made by the
House of Brunswick, a leader for 70
years in the woodworking art. We
have long maintained a nationwide
organization, with branches and deal
ers everywhere.
And so the cost of distribution is
lessened. Thus we can afford to of
