The Democrat this week is privi-
legged to print song poem written
by Miss Hattie E. johnson of Walnut,
Kansas, sister of Mrs. Minnie

pecial merit, and Miss johnson has
received several offers from publish
ers. The sentiment is just right and
we predict that when placed upon the
market it will take its place with
the best of the war songs.
