JOHNSON LEAVES

Hayden baseball suffered a heavy
loss Sunday when A. Rankin Johnson,
star pitcher for the Mill team, left for
Milwaukee to join the American
League for the incoming season. His
final decision to leave came as a sur
prise to many, and is believed to be
due to the persistent rumor here that
there will be no baseball in the Tri-
Copper League this summer. If this
proves to be the case, we may look
to see more Mill players on their way,
and our fans will be left to mourn the
loss of their share of the great ma
tional sport. Their lonesomeness will
be all the greater in contrast to the
brilliant seasons which have been wit
messed in the past three years.

FARM LABOR DEVELOPMENTS

The United States employment SER
vice of the Department of Labor has
made arrangements with this govern
ment and Canada whereby competi-
ton for farm labor on the two sides
of the border will be eliminated. Di-
rect advertisements for labor by Can
ada will not be carried on, but re-
quests will be made through federal
channels. According to the arrange
ments our northern neighbors will be
supplied after our own farmers needs
are satisfied and the supply will be
drawn from the cities and not from
the present rank of our farm 1aborers.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

Other states have gone through the same experience
Mistaken sentiment results in the coddng Of criminals

usual psychological order to be atered and petted per-

modern theory that crime is always the external mani

THE ANS Err

Before a little wayside shrine,
Half-ruined by a shell,
A Belgian soldier knelt to pray
When shades of evening fell.
Behind him in the fading light
A tottering chimney rose,
The remnant of his happy home
Destroyed by ruthless foes.
20 Lord of Hosts" he humbly prayed
"a miracle 1 crave;
Send us a savior, strong and true,
Our stricken land to save"
And 10! upon the road appeared
With guns and armored cars,
A soldier of the U. S. A.
Who bore the Stripes and Stars.
-Minna Irving, in Leslie's

Thanking the Lord you're not over

Where the cannons roar and the brave

And, dying, perhaps unburied lie;
You may have purchased a bond or
And imagine that is enough to do.
But some day, after the war is done
And victory by the brave is won,
You'll see men sheer as they pass you

And you'll wish you had not been

For what is the life of coward

SMILES AND TEARS GET MIXED.

Two little stories came to the Red
Cross headquarters from over the seas
a short time ago. One was story of
bravery that brought the tears, .and
one tale Of tears that brought smiles
The first story was of a soldier who
asked for light. He was in bed, and
cigarette was between his lips, plac-
ed there by the nurse after she had
finished spreading his blanket up
smoothly. At his question, she turned
and gave him box of matches and
hurried on, then remembered that the
arms beneath the blankets were with
out hands.
Nurses have to be without tears, but
there were tears in her eyes as she
turned to strike the match and light
the cigarette for him.
"Ouit that" he said, "they were good
mits and they helped get three or four
Germans before ! lost them. but they
amt worth crying about, so there!"
And the tears story that brought
smiles? Well, that was the story Of
big. husky, colored man, who sat read
ing, and the Red Cross worker at the
canteen saw that he had tears running
down his cheeks. She was curious to
know what he might be reading and
was astonished when she looked over
his shoulder to see that 1t was the
canteen cook book.
He smiled through his tears as he
saw that she was watching, and said,
sheepishly, "You sure must excuse me,
ma'am, but this here book done make
me blamed homesick. I'm shamed to
make baby outen mahse'f, but this
makes me think o home"
