The Americans have made a most

I'VE have undertaken to supply
many hundreds of guns of different

And the wall of y welcome cry,
I'D hush to rest on warm white

And light in a loving eye
Wide-eyed wonder at all the earth;
One little hour of birth.
ona little hour of life,
ITuJtiplied by a thousand fold,
And the hopes and fears and the joys
and tears,
Aud the struggle for bread and gold
One long wonder at all the strife;

And the sweep and scope of a faith or

And the peace OF a long, long rest
And the wonder dumb for the lack of

THIN LINE OF ALLIES

Vaga, Northern Russia, Oct. H.
Villages behind the Russell Allied
lines are full OF youns peasants too
disinterested In the fighting to enlist
From all northern Russia, however,
other young men, principally former
officers, permit no obstacle to pre-
vent their joining the new army.
This type OF man is filled with en-
thusiasm for the new Russia, but the
people Of many villages callously
meet the plea to enlist.
In many villages almost unanimous
sentiment against the BoIsheviki haS
been found by the correspondent. He
has also found that the epople hate
Germany and appreciate the aid that
is being given by the allies The
peasants are willing to fight the Boil
sheviki in the vicinity of their own
villages but not elsewhere. A group
OF young men in one village naively
