THE ROUGH NECKs

You say he can't stand the army,
That the life is too rough for him;
So you think he is better
Than some other mothers son or
Jim.
You raise him like hot house girl,
He don't smoke or drink is your
brag;
But II all the boys were like him,
What would become of our flag?
You say, let the rough necks do the
fighting,
They are used to the beans and the
stew;
And they're proud to serve their
country,
Their part for freedom to do.
They go to drill in bad weather,
Each strikes with grin on his face
While your boy sits in the parlor
And let's another fight in his place.
Maybe we are only rough necks,
But we fight as forefathers did
To cuddle and humor your boy,
Thank God we don't need the Kid.

A BLEAK ISLAND HIS HOME
Former Crown Prince Hooted by
Dutch on Way to Wieringen

Amsterdam, Nov. 81 delayed
Mosterland, a hamlet of score Of
small farmsteads and fishermen's
huts on the bleak, lonely island of
Wieringen, some distance from the
Dutch naval station at Helder, is the
home assigned to the informed former
German crown prince. The local
pastors humble 2-story residence has
been leased furnished for six months,
and there the crown prince will live.
The house, which is without the
slightest attraction, is off the beaten
track, and is hardly ever visited by
strangers. The hamlet itself is in
habited for the most part by mussel
fishermen, who. after their expert
ence with U-boats during the war,
view the guests advent, which is ex-
pected tomorrow, with anything but
favor.
The sole communication between
the island Of Wieringen and the main
land IS a small steamer which car
ries mail and makes two trips daily.
A lonelier retreat of the former
crown prince could hardly be mag
med.
