q poem which glad to print. She entities 'What
Our Boys Are Fighting For'' and writes:
Our boys In France fighting
Just as hard as hard can be,
In a while Wen lick the Kaiser,
Just you wait and see.
First they're fighting cause they want
The Kaiser to dethrone,
So he can never rule the world
Or make it all his own
Secondly, cause they want
The Kaiser Just to
That he rule the world
Or lick Democracy.

And thirdly because they want
Everyone to
That freedoms going to rule the world
And no Autocracyl
Elizabeth has stated the case just it is and she
has arranged her words with better regard for meter and

tain Young man. To an impartial
eye he may be a very ordinary
young man, a young man who
looks like hundreds Of other young
men. Arabella herself may have
looked upon him half a dozen
times without seeing that he was
at all out of the common.
Then, one day, something hap
pened. On the surface it seemed
nothing unusual Perhaps, IN
group Of laughing friends, Arabel-
Ia and the young man unexpect-
edly found themselves exchanging
an understanding smile. lSIncs
the world began millions OF love
affairs have beOun with the ex-
change Of a SMILEY
Perhaps their eyes were sud
denly caught and held in one Of
the long looks that beOin casually
and end with a quickened heart
beat
Perhaps they themselves have
no exact knowledge Of the mo-
ment When their hearts were sat
afire. Arabella only knows that
suddenly a matter-of-fact young
man, with a round face and blue
eyes has become Of deep and vital
interest to her. g,
At the same time he has ceased
to be a matter-of-fact young man:
Last week she may have realized
that perhaps he was a little over
weight, and that his taste in Ties
was not always to be relied upon.
This week everything about him
is exactly right. He is an Adonis.
His clothes suit him to perfection
The way he parts his hair has an
extraordinary charm.
In other words, Arabella's mag
ination is now working overtime
in behalf Of the matter-Of-fact
young man If she is too sane to
be wholly blind to his imperfec-

II felt just the same. Wasn't It
strange? Prom the minute you
came into the room / didn't lnoW

They both believe it
From now on Arabela's huetu-
atoms Of feeling can only be COM
pared to a fever chart. She meets

mice" to another girl at some
gathering Of their friends. An
guish Of Arabella! Collapse OF
Arabella's world. Again-they
quarrel. Anguish Of both! Col
lapse of the universe. Tears,
fears, wretchedness-
One night he is preoccupled--
not at all himself. Perhaps ne is
worried over some office trouble.
But to Arabella the change in him
can mean but one thing. He has
ceased to love herl Anguish for
Arabella!
Throughout the whole Of her
love affair, indeed, there is much
anguish for Arabella and for him
anguish they forgot in the
glorious hours Of reconciliation
and complete understanding.
The young man is going through
it all, too-doubts, fears, Jeal-
ousy, uncertainty, quarrels, re-
cancellations, happiness. Again
and again the pair run the old
old gamut.
But no one need be sorry for
them. They are going through
the greatest experience Of life.
They are intensely living, intense
ly feeling, intensely loving:
Millions upon millions Of others
have gone through it all before
them, and will 60 through it all
after them. But to Arabella and
to John the greatest wonder Of
the experience is its newness.
Never, never before, in all the
history of all the worlds, have two
lovers loved as they do. They
know this-by the way love
makes them feel!

tons, she deliberately concentrates
her attention on those details
about him which she can admire.
She loves the way he walks, the
way he smiles, the way he throws
back his head and laughs. For
hours at a time she Sits as in q
dream, recalling these things.
From this point life to Arabella
becomes an experience Of extraor-
binary interest We are assum-
ing, of course, that the young man
is attracted, too, and that Ara
bella knows it
From this moment the world
becomes to Arabella a planet in
habited by two human beings and
millions of shadows.
She would resent being told this.
She claims to be interested in
many persons and subjects. Per-
haps she thinks she is. But as a
matter of fact Arabella is vitality
interested and vitality alive only
during the hours when she is in
the company Of that young man.
Again and again she recalls
every word he said the last time
he came and every word she said.
She thinks Of counties things she
might have said and did not say
interesting, absorbing, brilliant
things! She plans what she will
say the next time he comes, the
subjects they will discuss.
But II they have reached the
point of mutually admitting their
love, they will discuss no subject
on earth except themselves and
that love. The conversation may
run like this:
"When did you begin to care"
1.-The first minute l met you"
"Oh, you didn't! You never even
looked at mel"
Yes, l did. l was looking at
you all the time. l was saying to
