AMERICAN INGENUITY
OUTWlTS PRUSSlANlSM

When the history of this war is fully
written, there will be an interesting
chapter which ceals with the interned
German ships and their temperance
in a few months as auxiliary trans
ports Of the United States navy. And
this Notwithstanding the damage in
flicted upon them by Prussian orders
was such as was calculated to kee1,
them out of service for two years OF
what the Germans had figured as the
period within which the war would
terminate.
Thirty seven GerI IAN ships of 700,'
000 aggregate tons had their IA en-
CINE cylinders 10 broken in that re-
pairs within any reasonable time seem
ed out of the question. The biggest
ships appeared to call for new castings
entirely beyond their capacity of any
foundry works in the United States.
When the Shipping Board got down
t. close estimates, it figured the repair
bill at G2,600,000 and time required IL
to "a months. But, American enter
prist, combined with American inVen-
ton, concentrated capital and indus
trial organization in large units ac-
complished the job in SIX to eight
months at an expense of only $273,00o
Every one of these ships has been for
many weeks most effectively in Uncle
Sans service except possibly the Ar
menia lost off the Irish coast.

A field of hate where foemen's bullets
hailed
In torrents till we thought the dark
ened sky
Rained shot and she'll: where we could
scarcely breathe
Where naught but sights of carnage
met the eye.
Amid the holes which tons of shells
had torn
found a flow'r. lonely flow'r for
lorn.
Men died about me as I stopped to
Upon this blossom in the field of hate.
How came it there? How had it thirty
ed through all
The battles raging? Surely a kind
fate
Had guarded it; had babe that it re-
main
To ease, perhaps, some dying mortapa
pain.
And as I fought to drive the foemen
back
I seemed to sense that somehow, high
Beyond our ken there lived a God who
watched
The threads of life. Who ruled by
peace and love
And to my soul there came at this dire
hour
A faith in Him who spared this tiny
flower. F. S. W.

MEMORIAL DAY,
APRIL 10Th

Many years ago at Nashville, Tenn.
the southern people, probably follow
ing the suggestion of some good heart
ed woman, on their annual Memorial
Day, placed flowers on the graves of
Union as well as Confederate dead.
This touching action found response
in the hearts Of thousands throughout
the north, and it was the beginning of
the healing of the terrible wounds
caused by civil strife. All hate, all
anger was banished forever when they
laureled the graves Of the dead of the
north and south alike.
Fifty years after the battle of Get
tysburg on the anniversary of that
most terrible fight in the worlds his
tory, the representatives of the Grand
Army of the Republic and of the Unit
ed Confederate Veterans met, forty
thousand strong, on the battle field.
For a week they attended meetings
and reunions; they arose at the same
time to the mingled sounds of Dixie
and of reyef1le they ate from the same
mess; slept under canvass on the same
old tenting ground, and on the 3rd of
July, forming on either side of the
stone wall which arked the bloody
angle in SO, the Confederate Veterans
charged against the wall and were met

Army of the Republic this time with
open arms and hearty handshake.
That action symbolieal Of a union
of spirit among all well deserving Cit
liens OF the United States is exhibited
even in larger degree in the present
crisis, when the sons of the north and
sons of the south stand shoulder to
shoulder united democracy battling
against the outworn creed of the di-
vine right OF kings, and for the prin-
ciple of liberty to all peoples, large and
small alike, and the opportunity of self
government for all peoples Of the
world.
The parade on Friday in the City of
Augusta when the old veterans of the
southern army win march side by side.
with the young soldiers of the Key
stone Division, will be visual demon
stration to us all of the great truth Of
the solidarity Of the citizenry of the
United States.

BE ON THE ALERT FOR
THE FEMALE HUN SPY

Too much caution cannot be eXer-
cised with regard to all data that might
in any way aid the spying Hun. With
out doubt the German spy system, at
work for forty years in our country is
stiH at it's nefarious business, although
much has been done to defeat it.
One of the favorite means of the
enemy to obtain information is to en-
ploy abandoned women near military
centers to gain the confidence of men
and officers whom they entertain. The
man who exposes himself to the all
lurements. treacherous wiles. and black
mailing schemes of such creatures not
only risks his own life but endangers
his country.
Some of the most notorious spies in
history were women. Not all are Of
the common femme de guerre type, but
many pass as persons of education and
are able by their refined manners to
tytst"ne their way into the midst of
unsuspecting inner circles. Keeping
always on the alert in order to expose
spies, and maintaining a wise silence
at all times will help to prevent leak
age of information.

THE Blue AND
THE GRAY

BY the flow of the inland river.
Whence the fleets of iron have fed,
Where the blades Of the grave-grass
ArIeep are the ranks of the dead:
UnC g. the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day;
Under the one. the Blue,
Under the other, the Gray.
These in the robings of glery,
Those in the gloom of defeat,
All with the battle blood CORY,
In the dusk of eternity meet;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the laurel, the Blue,
Under the willow, the Gray.
From the silence of sorrowful hours
The desolate nlourners go,
Lovingly laden with flowers
Alike for the friend and the foe:
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day;
Under the roses, the Blue,
Under the lilies the Gray.
So with an equal splendor,
The morning sun-ray fall,
With touch impartially tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all:
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day
Broidered with gold, the Blue,
Meliowed with gold, the Gray.
So, when the summer calleth,
On forest and field of grain,
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip of the rain;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment cay;
Wet with the rain, the Blue,
Wet with the rain, the Gray.
Sadly, but not with upbraiding,
The generous deed was done.
In the storm of the years that are fading
No drawer battle was won:
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day.
Under the blossoms, the Blue,
Under the garlands the Gray
No more shall the war-cry sever,
Or the winding rivers be red:
They Danish our anger forever
When they laurel the graves of our
dead!
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Love and tears for the Blue
Tears and love for the Gray.

ginning to say few words, as my
wound had prevented me from talking.
but I said enough to let him know
what I was doing there asd how I
happened to be there. He evidently
had heard my story from some Of the
others, though, because he said 1t was
too bad 1 had not broken my neck 81
that he did not have much sympathy
with the flying corps anyway. He
asked me what part Of America came
from, and I told him California"
After a few more questions he
learned that hailed from San Fran
cisco, and then added to my distress
by saying, "How would you like to-
have good, juicy steak right out OF
the Hofbrau?" Naturally l told him
1t would "hit the spot" but hardly
thought my mouth was In shape just
then to eat 1t. I Immediately asked.
Of course, what he knew about the
Hofbrau, and he replied, II was con-
nected with the place good many
years, and I ought to know all about
it."
After that this German officer and
I became rather chummy; that is, as
far as I could be chummy with an
enemy, and we whiled away good
many long hours talking about the
days we had spent in San Francisco,
and frequently In the conversation one
of us would mention some prominent
Californian, or some little incident oc-
curing there, with which we were
both familiar.
| He told me when war was declared
he was, Of course, intensely patriotic
and thought the only thing for him to
do was to go back and aid in the de-
tense of his country. He found that
he could not go directly from San
Francisco, because the water was too
we'll guarded by the English, so he
boarded a boat for South America.
There he obtained a forged passport
and In the guise Of Montevidean took
passage for New York and from there
to England.
He passed through England without
any difficulty on his forged passport,
but concluded not to risk going to Hol'
land for fear of exciting too much sus-
picion, so went down through the
Strait Of Gibraltar to Italy, which was
neutral at that time, up to Austria

and then the machine drops like an
arrow, leaving a trail Of smoke like
comet.
AS their tracer bullets came closer
and closer to me realized that my
chances Of escape were nil. Their very
next shot, felt, must hit me.
Once, some days before, when was
flying over the line, I had watched a
fight above me. A German machine
was set on fire, and dived down
through our formation in flames on its
way to the ground. The Hun was div
ing at such sharp angle that both
his wings came off, and as he passed
within a few hundred feet Of me saw
the look Of horror on his face.
Now, when expected any moment
to suffer a similar fate, could not
help thinking Of that poor Huns last
look of agony.
realized that my only chance lay
in making an Immelman turn. This
maneuver was invented by German
one Of the greatest who ever flew and
who was killed In action some time be-
fore. This turn, which made success
fully, brought one of their machines
right in front of me, and as he sailed
along barely ten yards away, had
the Drop on him, and he knew 1t.
His white face and startled eyes
can still see. He knew beyond ques-
ton that his last moment had come
because his position prevented his tax
ing aim at me, while my gun pointed
straight at him. My first tracer bullet
passed within yard of his head, the
second looked as If it hit his shoulder
the third struck him in the neck, anG
then let him have the whole works
and he went down in a spinning nose
dive.
All this time the three other HUI
machines were shooting away at me
I could hear the bullets striking m!
machine one after another. hadn'
the slightest idea that l could eve
beat off those three Huns, but ther'
was nothing for me to do but fight, ant
my hands were full.
In fighting, your machine is drop
ping, dropping all the time. I glance'
at my instruments, and my altitud
, was between 5000 and 5000 feet
While I was still looking at the in
struments, the whole blamed work
disappeared. A burst of bullets wen

they put in at Gibraltar, after leaving
England, there were two suspects
taken off the ship, men that he was
sure were neutral subjects, but much
to his relief his own passport and ere

The Hun spoke Of his voyage from
America to England as being excep-
tionally pleasant, and said he had a
fine time, because he associated with
the English passengers on board, his
fluent English readily admitting him
to several spirited arguments on the
subject of the war, which he keenly
enjoyed. One little incident he related
revealed the remarkable tact which
our enemy displayed In his assoc1a-
lions at sea, which no doubt resulted
advantageously for him. AS he ex.
pressed it, he "made hit" one evening
when the crowd has assembled for a
little music by suggesting that they
sing "God Save the King" Thereafter
his popularity was assured and the de-
sired effect accomplished, for very
soon q French officer came up to him
and said, "It's too bad that England
and ourselves haven't men in our army
like you" 1t was too bad, he agreed,
in telling me about it, because he was
confident he could have done whole
lot more for Germany If he had been

apparent loyalty, however, the man
didn't seem very enthusiastic over the
war and frankly admitted one day that
the old political battles waged in Cali
fornia were much more TO his liking
