THE STACKER

America, in pain softly weeping;
AS her loyal troops march forth to
meet the foe;
While from behind a wall of skirts, are
peeping,
Her cowardIy sons who bring her to
shame and woe
Oh mothers dear you taught your boys
Of honor;
To be brave through life, to love their
countrys flag;
Yet liberty they shun, when wars upon
her,
And the stars and stripes to them are
but rag
Your tears and pleadings cause your
boy to surrender,
To the foes, who trample Freedom in
the dirt;
And the world scorns him who loyalty
won't tender
AS the cur hides behind a woman's
skirt
Fair maidens all, how can you love a
fellow
Who has shown he is a coward and a
knave?
While brave men who are free from
streaks Of yellow,
Gudfu the IIag we love, ana winch
our fathers gave.
Your selfishness has made your sweet
heart hated
And in time your love for him will
fade away;
For you viii curse the day you ever
mated
With the man you hide behind your
skirts today
You wives will force your husbands to
be traitors,
Wrong the man you love- and hurt
his children too;
And help the horde of foreign agitators
Revile our emblem, the Red. the
White and Blue
But freedoms cause is bound to live
forever,
BY the bravery of her sons who were
alert;
In spite of what you did and your en-
deayor,
To hide the man you love behind
your skirt.
All women who are loyal to our nation,
Love the man who cheerfully dons
the khaki shirt,
But how they hate the meanest in
creation
The man who hides behind a wo-
mans skirt.

WOULD THE WORLD EE ANY
BETTER?

Would the world be any better,
If, when passing along.
instead of accusing another
Always looking for the wrong
You would think of a good deed you
know of
known to no one only God
Would the world be any better
If you planted this seed in the sod?
Would the world be any better,
II, when you journey along,
Past those who are sad and weary,
Who are treading life's pathway alone;
Perhaps they have never known Jesus
Or asked Him to walk by their side
Would the world be any better
If you helped someone to abide?
Would the world be any better
II you helped someone today?
Don't wait until tomorrow
Perhaps shat win be too late.
Your church is always pleading
For the souls who are left outside
Would the world be any better
II you reached just one?
HAVE YOU TRIED?

O no, Billie, you cart RUS US,
No. no, Billie, YOU can't rule us;
No, Bill Kaiser. you can't rule us,
For we want Liberty
Our Flag has been dishonored, and r14

BY that man they call Bill Kaiser,

That before this war is over, he will
have to bow his knee
To the boys of Liberty
We win sail across the ocean and join
the boys in France
And when we catch the Kaiser we
viii surely make him dance
For the way he used poor Belgium and
other nations too.
In lands across the sea,
We will fight him on the water and
fight him in the air,
We will fight him on the land and
Wen fight him everywhere.
And when all this struggles over for
the cause Of Liberty,
The whole world will he free.

CHRISTMAS DAY IN CAMP

Christmas Day in camp
Was celebrated today,
So listen and be patient
And hearken to this lay.
well remember year ago,
On Texas dusty plain,
We spent Christmas under canvass.
And have we one again.
1t sure is quite a contrast
From the Border and Rio Grande,
For we have come to Georgia
It's relief from dust and sand.
But this is a day to pause
And celebrate the season
For the time is surely coming
When we will door know the reason

is to be cut 80 per cent. And yet the
amount of beer produced is not to be
less. Water! We suspect water.

Here Is a Message That May
Mean An End TO All of
Your Suffering.

II you are just feeling the first
little twinging pains OF Rheuma-
tism. we would warn you to take
the righ, course at the outset and
avoid permitting yourself to fan
n helpless victim TO one OF the most
sabIng and painful diseases TO
which the human family is sub
ject
And n you have had Rheumatism
for any length OF time. the chances
are that you have kept the lini-
ment bottle pretty busy but you
have realized by now that gallons
of iiniments and other locally op-
piled remedies will never rid You
OF this -wroeklns. pain-racking
disease. The best that you can eS-
pect from such treatment ls some
little temporary relief from the
sharp. shooting pains.
But you want moro than mere
relief. You want 20 break the
shaokies OF a disease that has you
so firmly within It's power. You
want a treatment that not only re-
nsves the pains. but that stops
them forever. by reaching their
cause.

ney General Ford, who came here to
prosecute the case Of the alleged kid
napEers of a Nonpartisan league or
ganizer and requested protection
while here, was met at the train this
morning by the 81 alleged kidnappers,
members of the committee Of the
public safety and escorted to the
court room. No violence was at
tempted, but there was Kisses and
cat calls from the packed hundreds
when he entered, and cheers for the
defendants. Court officials tried in
vain to restore order and it was some
time before it subsidized
Judge John Glib, in dismissing the
case against the defendants, declared
no evidence had been adduced to
warrant holding them and scored the
prosecution, asserting it had been
without warrant in the first place.
Members Of the Red Cross society,
in full nurses uniforms, sold tickets
outside the courtroom to "Ford's bur

In consequence the eclipse will be-

eastern corner of Washington state
to the coast of Florida, in which the

with the American Army IN
France, May 14.-How an American
alarm clock kept the whole German

an alarm clock under his arm, disap-

wire had been so arranged that the
clock continued to ring internationally
