LET HIM LIVE
Published by special request. J

As long flowers their perfume give, As long I'd let the kaiser live
 Live and live a million years
 With nothing drink but Belgian tears, With nothing 10 qnench hts awful thirst But the brine of il Sco,chman $ curse. I'd l-t him lve Il dinner each day Served from silver golden tray Served with things both dalnty and sweet Served with all but things And I'd make hin bed Of slken sheen N ith costly linens 10 lie between, With covers of down and tillets of lace And downy pillows piled in place, Yet when to its comfort he would yield It should stink with o the battlefield. And blood and bones and brains of men Should cover hi m. smother him and then His pillow should cling with rotten clay Clay from the grave of d soldier boy And while Gods stars their vIgil' keep And while the waves the White sands sweep, He should never. never sleep And through all the days and through all the years There should be an anthem in his ears, Ringing and singing and never done From he edge of ligt to the set of Moaning and moaning and moaning wild - The moan of a ravaged Preach girls child. And I'd build him castle by the sea As lovely a castle could be. Then d s,oW him d ship from the .AS fine ship eve. could he Laden with water cool and Heet Laden with everything good eat. Yet scarce does she touch the silver sands Than a hot and hellish molten shell Should change his hea "en into hell And though he'd watched on the swept shore, Our I,n:ania would rise no more. In No Mans Land, where the Irish fel Id start the kaiser private hell: I'd jal him and stab him and give him gas, In every wound I'd pour ground glass; I'd march hin where the hrave boys died Out past the lads they crucihed In the fearful gloom of his living tomb There is one thing I'd do before thru I'd make him sing, in stirring The wonderful words of the Star Spanged Banner.

JEWS TO CELEBRATE
 ALLENBY'S VICTORY
New Britain Zionists Plan Event in Recognition of Second Free
 dom of Palestine.

One of the largest celebrations ever 1 held by the Jews of New Britain will 1 take place Sunday evening, April 7th in Talmud Torah hall under the auspices of the New Britain Zion l association. The purpose of the meet ing will be to celebrate the Passover 1 holidays and the establishment of the Jewish civic rule in Palestine for the first time in almost 2,000 years. Last year at Passover prayers were offered for the deliverance of Pa1es- tine from the Turkish rule. This year the prayers have been answered by the wonderful success of General Allenby's army and the subsequent freeing of Palestine. Together with these events the recognition and aid given to the Zionist organization by the United States, English, French and the Italian governments have made the Jews, the world over, more iubilant than ever. The years of 1917 and 1918 will mark the second 1ibera- tion of the Jews from exile.
 A joint commission representing the English Zionist organization, the English government the Zionist Provisional committee are now en- route to Palestine to cooperate with the English military forces there in establishing the new Jewish state. Next week the Hadassah Medi- cal and Red Cross unit will leave for the Holy Land with. supplies. This unit will go under the protection of a United States convoy.
 After many attempts the local Zion iStS have succeeded in obtaining Charles COWen of Philadelphia as speaker of the evening. Little need be said of MT. CoWen's oratorical abl- ity On his last visit to New Britain in June, many were turned back from the doors. In addition to MT. Cowen Rabbi Levenberg of New Haven will speak and the IIadassah chorus will sing
