THE HOMELAND



It's certain voice, it's the sound
OF a bell In a distant tower,
It's sunlight on the ground
Through trees or after a shower.
It's certain roof under a certain sky.
The fragrance OF the path OF GER
tain street,
y steeple with farm kneeling near
The feeling Of the grass under the
feet,
The flash OF look. the faltering OF a
hand,
A something from the past too quick
to understand
It's what one feels and cannot say
Even when one sings,
Though that's the nearest way,
It's all those things.
It's what one tastes and sees.
It's what one breathes and hears,
It's a smoke, it's melodies,
Bright leaves, a wind that veers,
The common sights and sounds.
Dogs barking. people greeting.
A mug of ale that pounds and pounds.
A table at some meeting
It's what one feels and cannot say
Even when one sings,
Though that's the nearest way,
It's all those things
It's the body's very best,
It's the heartbeat in the side
For children at the breast.
It's remembering those who died,
It's the ardor of the way,
It's the SAVIOR of the song.
It's the dream, aching to stay,
And the passion, to belong,
The sewers viii to reap,
The lovers will to keep
It's what one feels and cannot say
Even when one sings,
Though that's the nearest way,
It's all those things.

NEW DEVICE IS
 BEING USED ID
 SPREAD GRAVEL

Superintendent of Construction W. L. Packer is the inventor of a new device for spreading gravel on the roadbed for use by the surfac- ing gangs and it is said to be giving great satisfaction and helping very materially in furthering the work of building the railroad. The work done by the spreader is equal to the work that will be done by a force of about forty men using shovels to get gravel from the sides to the middle of the track.
 The spreader is a very strongly built V shaped box with arms ex- tending few feet beyond the rails. Notches cut in the spre\ der fits on the rails on each side to gather in the gravel dumped off the cars by the blow. It is hooked on to the rear car of the gravel train and does the work of properly spreading the gravel on the roadbed simul- taneously with the work done by the blow in unloading the gravel cars.
 The spreader w{s built in Nenana under the direction of Mr. Packer

l, Nobdy should miss the picture
 that will be shown at the Coliseum
 tonight, as it is certainly worth see
 ing. Five reels tell very romantic
 story in which Lou Tellengen, as the "Unknown", takes the leading role. The story centers around the world famous military unit known as the Foreign Legion. in their quarters in Algeria, where they keep open house and welcome into their ranks all soldiers of fortune. of whatever nationality they may be who may
 care to join this daredevil regi- ment.
 The Foreign Legion in their AL gerian quarters offer sanitary where men who have met misfortune may redeem their past, and where no questions are asked and no papers needed.
 The inevitable love story lends a charm to the story of brave mans struggle to extricate himself from misfortune.

AVER MERCHANTS y
OBJECT TO QUARTlNE
AGAINST CAMP DEVENS

Aver, ass, Sept 25-A number Of
merchants and other citizens of shis
town went "on strike" against the
town authorities tonight and took
steps looking toward a virtual an
nexation of the town to Camp C'ev-
ems. Their public grievance as
voiced at a public meeting was the
quarantine recently declared by he
town board of health against he
h ,cantonment on account of the influ-
enza epidemic. The meeting drew
Eup a petition which will be forward
ed at once to the war department
asking that the department take over
administration of the town ;-ffair
Late tonight rs citizens had signed
the petition. Speakers at the meet
ing declared that the quarantine ,ras
unnecessary. that it was an unfair
discrimination against the soldiers at
the cantonment and that it tended to
spread rather than allay the epidemic
by creating panic. They also charge
the town officials With being Ineffi-
cient in their administration of local
affairs, particularly with regard to
problems to the location Of the cam
tonment here. After learning of the
action taken at the meeting. members
of the local board of health said .nat
the quarantine against Camp Davens
was absolutely necessary. Other
town officials would make no COM
ment on the charges made at the
meeting. u
