IN FLANDERS FIELDS.
Nv COL. JOHN McCRAE.


BY col. JOHN MccRAE.
IN Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and In the sky
The larks still brayely singing fiy,
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved and now we lie
1t In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe.
To YOU from falling hands we throw
The torch--be yours to hold Il hlgn.
If We break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep tho poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

FOR OUR DEAD.
~ SIR SIDNEY Low

For you our dead, beyond the sea,
Who gave your lives to hold us free,
By us, who keep your memory,
What can be said7
We can not sing your praises right,
Lost heroes of the endless fight
Whose souls into the lonely night
Too soon have fed.
Wegcan but honor, cherish, bless,
Your sacred names; no words expires:
The measure of our thankfulness,
To you our Dead.

''Ace High. Z

In this stirring picture, which
comes to the Grand next Friday,
such good work is done by every
body concerned, even the indian
players, tnat it might be called an
all-star production without stretch
ing the truth. Tom Mix himself
makes splendid hero for this kind
of story, in which he takes the role OF
an officer Of the Northwest Mounted
Police and, as champion Of an unpro-
tected girl, saves her from a villain
Gus sheriff from over the border.
There is no lack Of Fresh interest in
the tale, and the flight of the man
with the girl down q dangerous look
ing rapid to escape the .aeriff 81 gang
seems a Bit too perilous To be at all
trite. Striking backgrounds dis
tinguish the whole picture

Netus of the
Photoplays.
"The Price of a Good Time.'

he FfiCs oE d <AoSA MIKE
lois Weber's first contribution to
ihe Jewel series Of features, "The
price of a Good Time," advances the
eaund preachment that in the environ
rant Of the home rest the influences
tbat predominate in young per-
son's future life. To score this point
H sbe introduces two girls, one from a.
happy home ard the Other from the
most contrasting surroundings. Hes
ricture deals largely with the latter
nirl. who after taste of luxury that
lasts a short week is unable TO bear
the return to her sordid life and suf
fer the stinging suspicion of her1
mother and brother, and who as a
consequence chooses suicide as a way
ant of her troubles. A reviewer in
the Motion Picture News says of the
production:
"The suggestion of sex muddle
carried in the title is never a reality
in the picture drama. 1T resolves it
self into human story, well told and
strong, preying heavily upon the
sympathies, and entertaining from
the very first. There were many un-
able to suppress snitfles after show
lnR Ol GIic %it-IH ~ luS' Io1oHA wa
Theatre, and when photoplay can
produce such results on it's audience
Z. it is deserving of the highest praise
for it's realism. And as it is abso-
lutely devoid of anything objection
able, anything at all offensive, and
]. while it does at the same time carry
moral-a healthy, digestible moral
under cloak of absorbing enter
tainment, it may well be termed a
fine picture.
"a remarkably good cast was as
sembled to interpret the leading roles,
which, under the discriminating di- /
rection of Miss Weber, does superla-
tive work, individually and collective
". Mildred Harris as Linnie, the
girl from the second home, gives
wonderfully appealing characterize
ton.
"The production furnished the
picture by Miss Weber and Phillips
3 Smalley is the most remarkable in its
taste and faithfulness to detail that
the writer has seen outside Thomas
Ince's pictures The photography
and light effects show the same close
attention to detail and are as result
extraordinarily realistic
This notable photodrama will be
the attraction at the Gem Theatre to-
\ day and Sunday.

A TRUTHFUL DREAM.
By a Greeneville Boy.

By a Greeneville Boy.
The Kaiser thought he would take a
walk and look up Hindenburg,
He walked over half of Berlin and
not a word was heard.
At last he heard the crown prince
say, Oh, Colt, | really wish you
would
Tell father send us back plates, too,
that breast plates are no good.
At first we were advancing and now
we are on retreat.
The clothes that father sends us now
has certainly sprung a leak
The Americans now are advancing
they know they are in the right.
Who said the Americans were crazy,
who said they couldn't fight?
They have guns on top of guns, ten
million men around;
The way things are looking now they
sure are Berlin bound.
So, father, send US back plates, for
we are on retreat,
An diff you don't hurry with them,
it's Berlin in week.
Father, pack your things and go on to
Switzerland at once,
=
For if a Yankee sees you, my Colt!
how he will punch.
And wait not on Won Hindenburg, or
on your darling wife,
Just say the Yanks are after me,
am travelling for my life.
Wait not upon your army, travel by
sun and moon;
Just bid farewell to old Berlin, for
the Yanks will own it soon.

SUPPORT OF NEGROES
IN WAR WORK CAMPAIGN
URGED IN GREENE CO
CLARENCE BAXTER,

The signing of the armistice must
not affect the success of our drive
The American soldiers in France and
at home must be maintained and
taken care of for some considerable
time. The Negroes of Knox, Wash
ington and Hamilton counties have all
ready raised their quotas. An effort
is being made to put Tennessee in
the lead among the southern states.
Negroes loyalty in the world war
gives them credit up to this time for
100000 soldiers, $10,000,000 to Lib
erty loans, $3,OO0,000 to the Red
Cross, $4,O00,OOO to thrift stamps.
The Negro has always responded
to the call of patriotism from the
time he was indicted into slavery up
to the present conflict.
A patriotic mass meeting in the
interest of the campaign work will
be held at the courthouse Wednes-
day night, November 18th, at 1880
o'clock. Let every colored person
make it possible to be there.
We also most cordially invite our
white friends to be present. Don't
fail to come. We are not going to
ask you for any money. The Negroes
of Greene county want full credit for
their quota.
Our Jubilee Singers will give you
national airs and plantation melodies.
Rev. N. D. Shambourger, field mar
shall for Hamilton county, will adj
dress the meeting. DR.. Shambourger
is an interesting and forceful speaker,
The drive is on at the courthouse
for Wednesday night.

NOVEMBER.

Of all the months of the year No
vember is the one for reflection; as
we review the past we cannot but
contemplate the future. The annual
death of the leaves and flowers and
their annual resurrection teach a
beautiful lesson. What is more rich
ly instructive than the verdure of
spring? Field and forest mantled
with emerald in April, whitened with
blossoms in May and June, awaken
all that is noblest and best in our
natures. The rich summer beauty,
the luxuriance of the harvest, the brill
liancy of autumn inspire us with rich
err and ripper thoughts. The whole
summer is a continuous feast that
we try to share with our friends.
The saddest day of the year to a
lover of flowers is one that succeeds
hard frost. A thousand attach
ments are severed in a few hours,
The wilderness that had blossomed
as the rose has become a blackened
sepulchre at the touch of the icy lips
of King Frost. But we have only to
wait a few months and we hail once
more the vernal spring, for It's only
through death that we live again.
There are multitude of blessings
for every sorrow, for
'Twould be a lot too blest
Forever in the emerald shade to stray;
Amid the kisses of the warm south
west
To live and dream for aye.
