AN EDITOR GOES TO WAR

BY John Jay DAILY of The Vigilantes
We have laid aside the pencil and the
pen,
And we go to join the ranks of fight
men;
From the Sanctum's swivel chair
To the trenches Over There
We are going like Daniel to the den.
On the field of France and Flanders
we shall fight
For the faith that places right above
the might;
And the martial tread of feet
Through the busy city's street
Tells of kindred souls aglow with
Freedoms light.
Sure, it's sad to leave your friends
anu oil W IUd'u
and depart for lands that lie across
the foam;
But it's better far than write
If you do your bit and fight
Even if you never make the journey
home.
There are hearts that beat in sym
pathy with ours.
There are eyes in which we've seen
Loves highest towers.
There are lips that we have pressed,
Hands with fondest hopes caressed;
There are gardens where we walked
amid the flowers.
But-we leave these scenes of neace-
full, sombre kind
And we go where Sorrow stalks and
Care is blind;
Yet we trust befort it's through
We will WELD sword that's true
And more mighty than the pen we
leave behind.

A GERMAN WHO WILL RE MISSED

The country has lost valuable pa

his name suggests, he was a German
"a German by birth; but when he
became citizen of the United States
he made no reservation in his cath Of
allegiance. He did not subscribe to
the Prussian law of dual nationalities.
This is what he had to say in carl

fore he died:

alone, without friends. We sponged
on all America had, her free landsl
her free schools, and above all her
spirit of open-hearted comradeship.
She owed us nothing, but she gave us
all. We swore allegiance to her flag.
her Constitution and her laws. We
would be recreants, ingrates, perjur-

and were disloyal to her cause.
