 had little booths at all of the dry
 goods stores, where they have urged
 the passerby to make pledge to buy

 which they assist is with the automo- bile rides twice each week for the con-
 valescent soldiers at the base hospital at Camp Sheridan. On Wednesday and Friday evenings, the young ladies of the league have charge of the Primrose tearoom, and in this manner they are making a substantial sum, with which to carry on their patriotic work Another important patriotic organi- zation in Montgomery is the Cantcen service of the Red Cross. which has recently been organized under the di- rection of Mrs. Leon Well. who is the efficient chairman.

 In these ancient days sucs wees as now fasten themselves upon the Indian were virtually unknown. Lying. steal ing and adultery were punishable py death in the Incas' reign. Instead of the present condition of drunkenness and slotis. too apparent in many of the Indian communities. the old ancestry showed sctriety and an industry that has rarely had it's equal anywhere on the face of the earth. It is to be won- dered that one finds certain old fami- dies or tribes directly descendant from the Inca kings who hold themselves proudly aloof and hear in their faces and general attitudes conscious dig nity and lineage that disdains associa- tion with the diluted racial stock that now for the most part has become the servile vassal of the semi white nan}

 The following verses appeared in the Colorado Springs Gazette by Thadeus G. Holt. who is former Birmingham boy, who was well known by large circle of friends ss 'T. e. Holt He is a son or Mrs Elizabeth Holt The verses were inspired by the words of Pershng. Lafayette, We Are Here" and are as follows: Perhaps you have thought us ungrateful For the ai1 that you gave us of old; Perhaps you've considered us graspngs
 Who bartered our freedom for gold; Perhaps you have called us nation
 Which, working and hoarding by
 nighs,
 Has massed up its own earthly fortunes While others were fighting for right;
 weaKlings
 Who hung back from struggle in fear But we've heard your countrymens challenge And respond. 'Lafayette. we arc
 herel''
 We have seen your cathedrals in ruins

 We have seen your fair France devas- tated Tn the wake of the unrighteous Huns; We have heard with a heart that was heavy | Of the misery and woe of your land-- | We heard and we saw, but Our General. l It had been without stretching hand. But we've seen the last of oppression, 1 You can hear now our call ringing ! clear. | We've been rather slow in our coming.
 But now, Lafayette, we are here" In our training schools, camps and can comments l Is the noise of our thousands of men: In our shipyards, our plants and our factories
 Can be heard I.sbor's loud-crashins l din;
 There are hundreds and thousands Of prayers 1 Asking God for victorious peace: We have hung back-but now we're de- termined
 To go lover the top with a cheer. If it takes all our manhood we're with | you, l For now. "Lafayette, we are here!'
