IT'S ALL RIGHT, BOY.

It's all right, boy. since I've thought
it out;
You're miles away. but you're happy
no doubt
Yet your poor old dad can't helm he
ing sad
When he thinks of the good old times
we've had,
1t seems like you ought to come whis-
thing in
And tell us all about where you've
been.
When the zoe swings low, and the
stars shine out,
But it's all right. boy, since I've
thought it out.
II.
It's all right. boy, I'm glad you could
I'd eve have you a Stacker, you
You're fine and strong and brave and
true,
Ready to do what Uncle Sam wants
you to. :
Only we miss you a lot, for you're all
we've got,
And we've watched you grow from a
tiny tot.
Just make as good a soldier as you
were a scout.
It's all right, boy. you're under the
flag.
You must not shirk, you must not
lag
And If the clarion call you hear,
Meet death bravely, without a fear.
But, best of all, when the victory's
won,
And you've put to fight the last
bloody Hun,
Let your boy-heart lead you to the
old home nest,
Back to Mother and Dad. who love
you best.

BUYING BONDS IS THRIFT
Famoss French Statesman Says Thrift
Is Virtue CT the People

Deputy Justin Godart, in n recent
speech on "The American Crusade"
said: Thrift that virtue SO charac-
lerlstlcally French, so domestic, so
modest, so sterling-thrift is the vr-
tue which during the terrible trials OF
The war, has not failed to yield MS,
according to our ever-increasing ncces-
stiles, unsupported means and re-
sources.
We must place Il in the first rank
of our elements of resistance. 1t has
bceg the part Of the lowly in the eco
nohAc outlay. Thrift. 1t Is the vir-
tue Of the people, just as the Poilu is
the peoples soldier, and Ike the Poilu
II enabled France TO withstand the as
satlts of the burbarians."
GOT Of the hardships of the war
America Is recovering the ancestral
viFtHe OF thrift That alone will
abundantly repay US as people for
all the sacrifices we are compelled to
Undergo.
At the actual minute there is no
duty for Americans that can compare
with the buying Of Fourth Liberty
bonds. Thrift Is good for the country (;
btit first we must make sure that we
have a country. We must beat the
GNWan feudalism. Never mind what
you did on the early loans. That
mdney Is spent--for war preparation.
The Fourth Loan Is for Fighting.

These conclusions, reached by Mr..
r. I'll Price, are sustained by the rea-
sO1ing OF Sir George Palsh and many
OthfE European economists. 1t is com
monty assumed that the gross cost

losS of trade, destruction of property,
dissipation Of materials, excess con.
Aumntion OF commodities and the Incl
dental waste of utility" may be dis
c0unted about half to arrive at the
true net cost" On this basis the
London Stntist estimates that the real
economic loss to all the belligerent ma
tlons, will not exceed 1857 900, 100000
10 nhe end OF 1917. Since then, Of
course, there has been a tremendous
destruction which 1t is impossible at

Many Opportunities Opened for Specialists in War Department.

There is a list of 137 occupations
 where the demand for men in the War
 Department constantly exceeds the
 supply.
 A pressing need exists in the Army for men experienced in handling
 mules. and before all future needs are
 met a recruiting campaign may be- come necessary. No difficulty has been experienced in getting men, but ! blackSmiths are scarce. There is a constant demand for butchers, and cooks are greatly need : ed. In several technical branches particularly the Engineers. men for the higher positions are plentiful but the
 workers for the ranks are scarce. Ex- perienced mechanics, especially those familiar with automobiles are always in demand.
 More interpreters than can be used have applied for positions with the War Department. and applications for commissions as Army chaplains are also in excess of the need. The excess totals thousands in each case. Clerks for general work are plentiful but ! there is demand for specialists. Al present there is a surplus of dentists and pharmacists.

American Air7nsn Tells of Fighting
 Experiences.

A Committee on Public Information representative in London says:
 There are no better sportsmen in the world than the allied airmen, and American aviators now fighting in they learn it from the allies. F. P. Magoun, a former Harvard student, now a member of the Royal air force, recently wounded. tells how the lives of German observers escaping from balloons have been spared.
 We caught three Hun balloons above the allied grounds in a mist, which prevented their gunners seeing us" said he. Tt was a cinch. You should have seen them hustle out their parachutes and abandon the balloons. As they came falling down through the air we circled about closely but of course, didn't open fire, as that's against the rules of the game As soon as they touched ground they took cover like rabbits"
 MaEoun is the only American in his squadron, having joined in February of last year. He has bagged five German planes. While carryine bombs for low attack in the recent offensive he received a bullet through his left arm. but managed to return tc his own lines. Magoun tells of com panion in his squadron who had. ont of the luckiest escapes during the war. He was put out of action al 1000 feet in the air when a bullet per forated his gasoline tank He wa. rendered unconscious by the fumes anC bis machine took a nose dive to earth

At every training camp in the coun- try plans of the Commission on Train ing Camp Activities have been carried out to provide athletic facilities for the men. Baseball heads the list in popularity, and full equipment has been placed in the camps. More than 10000 basebal1s and 5000 bats have been sent. At Camp Lewis, Wash ington, there are 16 baseball fields in use. Practically every company in each camp division throughout the country has it's team, and there are company, battalion, regimental, and -regimental leagues
 Every form of track athletics oc- cupies the attention of men trainine at the camps. As many as 800 have taken part in divisional contests. and track meets have been witnessed b1 more than 10000 spectators.
 Where facilities permit, instruction in swimming is given. Men are frs given land instruction and then sen iato the water. Tennis courts have been built in every camp, one havins 40 courts, and the sport is rapidly gaining in popularity.
