He GroWs Too Fast

He grows so fast sometimes 1t seems,
His baby ways are vanished dreams.
One night | held him in my arms, a
helpless babe with sll the charms
OF innocence dimpled chin
And eyes that never looked on sin,
But danced with glee as ours would
II everything we saw were good.
And here is 10Y, thought J, 10 last,
But with the morning 1t had passed,
Somewhere hi. babyhood had fed.
And I'D a little boy instead.
So quick the change that time had wrought
He was q baby still, l thought,
But he could walk and talk and play
And even fight 10 have his way
And rornp with me upon the floor,
His days OF helplessness were Ger.
But quickly was that pleasure done,
Soon into school sent son.
A son In school Time swiftly flies.
Working its change before our eyes.
And through his youth today l can
Detect the spirit OF man
And even now | look In dread
To what is waiting Just ahead.
Tomorrow I may wake 70 find
That he has put his youth behind
Tomorrow / may wake TO know
That he has heard the call TO 20.
He grows so fast Thought cannot race
Along through life at such a pace.
His youth will very soon be passed,
And II this war for truth shall last
shall awake some day 10 learn
That he has answered In his turn,
And find my babe OF yesterday
Full gf6wn and proud 10 march away.
A fleeting hour Is youth. and then
Time changes babies into men.

GERMANS GAIN LITTLE
FOR HEAVY LOSS OF LIFE. a

LONDON, Juno 1.-THE attempt
ed drive by tho armies of the German
crown prince toward Paris seems
definitely to have been checked.
With thousands Of their men having
been fed TO the guns on the Mont
didier-N -Noyon and soissons- -villers-
Cott6rets sectors In the mad rush
70 pierce the allied lines In these
resions. and thus gain n fair way to
the French capital. the maneuvers
OF the German commanders appa-
rently have brought to the German
arms nothing more than the obiitera-
tion of the Noyan salient and the
capture of few unimportant posi-
tions southwest OF Scissors near the
outskirts OF the Villers- Cottcrets for
est.
Thursday. the sixth day Of the Of
fensiye between Noyon nnd Mont
dldier, witnessed only small local
actions, the depleted German forces
evidently fearing again to test the
mettIe Of the French and allied
troops whose cannon. machine guns
and rifles had worked such havoc
among them. Less than three days
were required by the allies to bring
the enemy to a virtual halt south
of the Alsne.
The feeling still prevails in mill
tnry circles In France that the main
effort OF dhe Germans has not yet
been launched ana speculation is rife
as to when II win come and what
the general objective will be-
whether Paris or the channel ports.
IT Is known that the enemy still has
large effectives available behind the
lines. thousands OF them brought
from the Russian front.
The armies OF General Foch are OF
such strength and good morale as to
lead TO the belief that. no matter
where the enemy chooses to oppose
them. they will be able to give n
splendid account OF themselves.
Seemingly. II is not improbable
that Field Marshal FIaig's forces will
he asked again To measure their
strength against the Germans and
that the territory near Arras. or In
the Scarpe sector or before both po-
sitions may he chosen BY the Ger
mans as the theater. In both these
sectors the German guns are again
working with the violence that gem
orally presages an attack
