The BOYS Who Have Not Died

The Boys Who Have Not Died

Dear God. what shall We give them as
Our bind, our crippled-men with
faces married,
Or aged by anguish. their young spirit
SCARED
Our soldier boys, come home?
How may we show our reverence. our
pride
For all they dared. for courage clean
and whole
OF mind and body and resistless soul
These boys who have not died,
Yet who may feel, perchance, that
Death SO fleet,
COMPARED with tagging life thus
OF Youths bright eagerness, Life
marred and stained
That Death were passing sweet:
For they, who who died for freedom still
In every heart that owed them, young
and fair
But these. the living. wounded over
there
To these what may we give?
Not gifts-such gifts as men give to the
weak
But Work that lifts the spirit, flicks
the will,
Awakes to vital thought. 10 hopes
that thrill
Such work as whole men seek!
Not pity-never that:--nor coward tears.
But re-creating friendship, healing,
gay,
And gratitude not only for today
But through the coming years!
And down those years the balm OF
So when we meet some cripple. with
cred, gray,
som day poor o'o So'u'e' "Ao
Did fight for liberty.
We see not shabby garments, surly
glance,
But through the yelling flesh the GAL
liant boy
Who touched the Great Adventure
knew its JOY
And gave his Youth to France!

Judge Blanchard and other parties
interested in the Scotch whiskey case
which has been tossed about with
little regard for court formality, were
notified Wednesday that the case
would be tried before him in Bangor
Municipal court Monday afternoon at
2 o'clock, reports the Commercial.
This action settled the heretofore un-
certain question Of where the case
will be tried, it being rumored that
the final disposition would be made in
the state courts rather than in the
federal court in which it was started
few days after the 81 cases Of liquor
were seized at the Maine Central
freight sheds by Sheriff Thayer, thus
interrupting a shipment in bond from
the Chicago Customs House to the
Bangor Customs House 1t is ex-
pected that U. S. District Attorney
John +. A. Merrill of Portland will be
present. also Attorney General Stur-

a call from the government to go
to one of the cantonments as for
age and fuel inspector. received word
this morning from the government
stating that all enlistments we're cut
of. But since Mr.. Parks had his ap-

sition.

would be a valuable man to the gov
