BY A. j. DALEY. SR.
o yes, Uncle Sam is sending
Our boys across this sea,
And they are going to fight
For you and me-
Some are on the land.
Some are on the sea.
Others have taken to the air,
And the boys are going to do
Some fighting when they all get there.
Chorus:
o yes. when the boys all get there.
When the boys all get there.
Across the sea.
They are going to make Billy Kaiser
Take to the sycamore tree.
So you see to them the battle
Has just begun, and they
Are going to fight right on
Until they capture every Hun.
o yes. when the boys all get there
Across the sea. they are going
To fight for freedom and liberty.
o yes, you will know the boys
By their suit. for they are the boys
Who can shoot when they raise
Their gun and take their aim
They get their Hun just the same.
So you see it's really true
The boys are fighting over there
Under the Red, White and Blue.
So then let's give them helping hand
And feed them on the best that in the
land,
For the boys are getting wiser every day
And are going to capture Billy Kaiser
any old way.
So it makes no difference how we feel,
II we are true to the Red, White and Blue,
We will throw our shoulder to the wheel
And help the boys through.
And when the battle is over
And you return to your
Native land to stay. you may sing
Home. Sweet Home, in the u. S. A.
Then we may listen to your story.
For you will tell 1t everywhere.
How you carried Old Glory
To the victory over there.

WIRELESS INVENTION
HAS VARIOUS USES
Static Remover viii Even
Predict Weather Changes,
Says Weagant
New York. NOV. %

Roy A. Weagant chief engineer Of
the Marconi Wireless Telegraph COM
pany of America and conqueror Of static
electricity. the greatest foe to the sue
cessful operation Of wireless telegraphy.
while declining to reveal the details Of
his invention, did make one statement
from which electrical engineers might
draw differences. He had been asked
why his invention would do away with
high steel mas;s, and he replied;
THE high towers were necessary be
cause we had found no way TO bring
the ether waves nearer the earth and,
therefore, we had to go up after them
TO get the power to fash our signals
BY the new device We are able to bring
them so low that We can reach them AT
height of twenty-five or thirty feet,
about the height Of sn ordinary pole.
We have lccO nplshed this result with
the help of the 'amplifer.' a very Valu
able invention of DR.. James Ambrose
Fleming, consulting engineer and uni
versity professor of electrical engineer
ing at the University of London, in com
bination with the device | was able to
work out.
Furthermore the device may, posi-
bly,. be used for greatly extending the
use Of wireless telephony. BY it we can
tell. with absolute certainty. a coming
change in the weather much more quick
ly than any barometer can. We cannot
tell what kind of change il will be,
but it has occurred to me that, maybe.
the forecasters of the weather may ind
the device useful some day.

TO MURDER SOLUTION
Marks on Womans Body
Found at Cape May De-
scribed in Letter

There is still hope of solving the beach
murder mystery at Cape May, the police
authorities believe.
1t is possible that slight marks on the
body Of the woman found on the beach
near cape May Point may lead to her
Identification.
Coroner Thompson today said he had
received an anonymous letter in which
the writer wished to know if the woman
had a mole on the left side OF her nose
two slight scars on her right cheeE and
a mark on the abdomen. These marks,
barely disCernible, were discovered in
the places mentioned by the writer. 1t
las been learned that the body is not
that Of Rose Horn. of Atlantic City. as
first supposed. Miss Horn has been
found to be alive.
Investigation of the crime has now
narrowed down 10 cape May proper The
police believe the murderer has been
there for some time and was thoroughly
acquainted with general conditions in
the neighbOrhOod of the crime.

George F. Thompson Promoted to
Lieutenant for Heroism
Under Fire

For heroism under fire, when his ship
was attacked in midocean by a sub

the oil tanker George G. Henry. man
ned by naval crew. on her home voy-
age from French port. During Thomp-
sons watch. he was in command in the
engineroom, "A big submersible suddenly
appeared and opened fire
me first few shots crippled the gun
mounted forward on the tanker The ex-
ploding shells set fire to the vessel as a
gun crew with the aft gun fired round
after round at the I'-boat.
The gun-fre and the roar Of the en-
ploding shells reached the engineroom.
For time il appeared ass though Lieu
tenant Thompson and his engineroom
crew would be trapped in the burning
vessel. But fun pressure of steam
was vital. Inspired by the lieutenant's
example, the stokers and assistant
engineers remained at their posts until
the tanker eluded the submarine.
Then the crew. after hours Of
grueling work, conquered the flames and
the tanker reached port safely.
Lieutenant Thompson entered the
navy last June with the rank of ensign.
He had formerly been an engineer in
the merchant marine He visited his
family here two weeks ago and then
