For some reason we can't explain
satisfactorily even to ourself, we
missed our most important local item
Friday. Early IN the morning a
friend phoned that a dispatch had
been received announcing that Miss
Mary C. Marshall, former. superin-
tendent of the Marion County Hospi-
tai, now in the service Of the govern
ment as a trained nurse, had safely
arrived over seas. We buIletined the
news at once and laid memorandum
of it down by our typewriter, and
then laid q dozen or more memoran-
dums on top of that, and faithfully
pegged away at the pile until the pa
per went to press. when we discovered
to our dismay that this most impor-
tant item had been left out. However.
we guess everybody IN town knew
about it, fou large proportion Of the
population reads the Stars bulletins
and tells still larger proportion
about them almost as fast as they are
posted up. Ocala takes the greatest
interest IN Miss Marshall. and her

DR.. Lincoln Hulley for president of
the Florida senate is not a bad sug-
gestion.- Starke Telegraph.
The Tribune knows absolutely moth
ing about politics. It cares less. 1t
despises the petty politician and his
tricks. Personally it admires DR.. Hull
ley. Confidently it has heard from
many sources that there are tricks to
be placed on the governor. DR.. HUI
ley is to be elected president of the
senate. Governor Cats is to be i'm
peached and through chicanery DR..
Hulley is to be made governor of
Florida in order to absolutely meta
morphose the policy adopted by Gov
ernor Cats. This seems to be the
program-Tampa Tribune.
Perhaps McWhorter knows nothing
about politics sometimes we think
he doesn't-but the astute gentlemen
who control the Trib. are not SO guile
less. However. we don't think any
considerable portion of our legisla-
tors will support a move to impeach
Gov. Cats on anything he has done
up to now, and certain it is that DR..
Hulley viii not be party to any such
scheme as that the Tribune mentions.

The Times Union of the 18th quotes
that famous saying Of Gen. Nathaniel
Bedford Forrest, that the science of
war consists IN 'sgittin' thar fust with
the most men, IF Forrest used that
exact language he must have done it
in jest. In a conversation with this
writer had with Gen. Forrest in Co
lunbus, Miss, in 1875, Forrest spoke
correct English and did not use a
single slang word or ungramnatical
expression. We well remember one
remark he made: What you people
should do is to practice a little phle-
botomy on your obstreperous dar-
keys. Punta Csorda Herald.
We have always been suspicion Of
that story about Forrest. The ac-
counts Of his illiteracy and bad gram
mar read more like the efforts of an
Indiana or New England writer to in
vent dialect than the expression of
one of Gen. Forests own acquaint-
ances.

/ will not drink from German cup,
Or eat from German plate;

All foul with German hate.
I'll use no drug with German name
That grows on German land,
I'll eat no food and drink no drink
IF made by German hand.
/ will not use a German tool
Razor or knife or saw,
will not trade with German shop
That lives by German law
| will not sail on a German ship,
Where German songs are sung,
/ will not breathe where Gods clear

Is soiled by a German tongue.
I'll not forget those awful deeds
To girls and little boys!
No more I'll hang on Christmas trees
Those b1oodstained German toys.
I will not take a Germans word
He'll break it. if he can.
There is no love in German heart
Or faith in a German man.
This is my oath. When war is done
I'll swear to keep it true;
And since know you feel the same
I'll pass it on to you.

The next morning Dodgeville was
tagog with excitement. 1t was told
from one end of town to the other and
circled madly among the loafers on
the store yeranda.
All night long old Caleb Norris,
dressed in his faded blue uniform, with
his gun over his shoulder, had pa
trolled the streets of Dodgeville, watch
ing for the inyadersl
1t was known that Caleb was sleep
ing that day and even the careless
small boys were particular not to make
any noise around the Morris house.
That night there were two sentries
patrolling the streets. The other vas
Lawyer Grinnel In his ancient butter
nut suit, for he had been a drummer
boy In the Confederate army. Over
his shoulder was a musket as ancient
as his suit.
He and Caleb Norris had met and
had shaken hands in the midnight
darkness of the street.
They had agreed upon a password.
1t was "Our Country"
Every time they met and passed
each other, they saluted. Old Caleb's
step was firm and unfaltering and his
gaunt shoulders were held erect.
Peter Grinnel was seventy-ave years
old, but he was small and spry and his
eye was as keen as that of a hawk.
Every night for o week the old sen.
tries patrolled the streets and their fell
low citizens took to treating the mat
ter as a joke.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1918-05-24

His wife came to the screen door
and brushed away some flies with
her apron. She was small and snowy
haired and very energetic In speech
and manner.
"Caleb," she said, "Dod Halpin's
just been over to say he hears there's
been another skirmish down at Little
Bridge. A man was shot by q Mex1-
can"
"Yes," responded Caleb, removing
the pipe from his lips.
IT thought maybe you'd go down to
the store and find out about it-Dod
said they were going to raid us some
night"
They'll get good and peppered If
they try that" barked Caleb, as he
shuffled down to the gate.
"I don't know who'd pepper m"
complained Ann Morris, as she return
ed to her ironing. There amt a man
In Dodgeville smart enough to put
salt on a birds tail, much less pepper
a Mexicanl Humphl"
AS soon as he gained the street, Ca
leb's shuttle changed to aemartial step
which rang out upon the hard pave
ment In rhythmic movement; people
in the houses nodded and remarked to
n another that Caleb Morris was 60
ing by-they knew his step. More
than one added significantly:
Next year, perhaps, we won't hear
even that-Caleb's e%ighty-one."
Caleb Morris didn't feel his eighty
one years as he made his way to the
store, the center of information and
gossip. He was wondering what would
happen in Dodgeville if the rowing
bands of Mexicans should decide to
cross the river boundary and invade
the little town.
OF course the men would fght-but
how? Suppose the raid took them IN
awares-at night? Who would warn
them? How many precious lives might
be lost before the citizens could rub
their sleepy eyes, grab their weapons
and defend their wives and families
and their property
Caleb pondered all these things and
he was deep In thought by the time he
gained the porch of the store and sank
into his accustomed chair.
A dozen voices greeted him warmly.
All were eager to tell him about the
skirmish of the previous day, when an

before US, with the flag of u coun-
try over them, and perhaps the flag
Of the Confederacy they fought for
hanging at its side. Someone would
start singing "Dixie," and every n
would sing. Someone would start sing
ing the "Star-Spangled Banner" and
every one would sing. If there were
old men In blue sitting side by side
with the old men in gray, we would
weep. We could not help weeping. 1t
would be a night none of us would
ever forget, because the presence Of
the old men in blue and in gray would
mean to us the union of complete pa
triotism, North, South, East and West,
in a conservation of this just val
against ruthless %autocracy.
That would be the first night we saw
the old men In gray and the old men
In blue sitting there. Presently we
would become accustomed to seeing
them sitting there, just as we have be-
come accustomed to seeing the old
men in blue here in Flushing. We
would applaud them each time, but
we would not weep again, because that
first great sweep of emotion would be
over. Then we would feel just what
we now feel when we see the old men
of the Grand Army of the Republic at
our meetings.
We would feel that they were there
