THE BABE THE FAIRIES PLANNED

An, little girl. know. know Fairies had planned you long ago; Even the smile playing round your
 lips,
 Even your dear little finger tips, Each little dimple, each little ear; Planned you and dreamed you and
 brought you here. But, little girl. with your eyes of
 blue. What of the soul they have tucked
 in you? What of the soul oh. baby mine? Tangled beams of the stars that
 shine; Soothing love of the mothers gone Into eternity, ages on; Prayers of mothers that wing ana
 wing Into the heavens where angels sing. Could these be blent in a soul for
 you, Dear little baby with eyes of blue? An. certainly so, but I only know Fairies had planned you, dear, long
 ago. would not question. nor criticize The soul that shines in your won
 derful eyes. However spun, of what, or where, 1t sparkles here as an answered pray
 CT.
 So. little girl, with your eyes of blue. Be sure. quite sure, of my love for
 you.

HOW BISBEE PEOPLE BEAR THE BAD NEWS
 OF THE BATTLES

At the desk of the Review telegraph editor and before the Review bulletin boards Bisbee citizens have gathered day and night since Friday morning of last week to hear bad news. Al ways the word is that the German advance continues and that the allies draw back. Men and women come for ward with anxious faces. look eagerly at the board, read with drowning brow, set their lips and pass on. That dismay and fear that the German loves to cast upon his enemies like a blight cannot be seen or noted here. Our people know how to bear bad news.
 From the talk in the office and ever the telephone as the salient parts of the dispatches are given to anxious inquirers. it Is plain that our people are stirred deeper than ever before by the power and peril of the Ger man drive. We must do more and better than we have done before Every one is waiting and hoping Tor the turn of the tide. Soon or late the counter offensive will begin.
 In the meantime. judging from those who come to keep Tn close touch Wlth the news of the battle day and night. the feeling is strong to keep the com lined up loyal and true to the allied cause. come what will. It takes a brave heart tO bear a dark day. The test of the heart is trouble. And our people are bearing the test well.
 Fight on, Press on!" These are the words heard by the newspaper man these yroubied days and nights by .those Swhos cofne to the snewsRaper shop for news of the battle No tal- tering in the copper camp in this no fear; no faint hearts. These men and women have given their sons and their money and their labor to their oountry's cause. and as .hev get the word of the German ad-

A WORD LIKE A WAVE ON THE WATER;
 IT NEVER STOPS

Some weeks ago there appeared in this column a story about the Wells Fargo horse and his long and faithful service in Bisbee. Too long. in fact We'll, that word traveled from the Mule mountains to Wells-Fargo head quarters in San Francisco. E. B. Ma son, pioneer resident of Bisbee, but now living in Oakland. Cal, told the newspaper man. so the other day. Mrs. Mason read the story and sent it to the Wells-Fargo superintendent. He wrote her and expressed thanks for the clipping a new horse and a young CT horse for Bisbee right away.
 The horse has not arrived yet but we have hopes.
 But this story is about E. B. Mason, and not the Wells-Fargo horse. The horse is about all in. Time has dealt hardly by him. But Mir Mason is as full of life and pep" as a three-year- old. He is just getting a good start on the race course of life and is pull ingon the bits at the three-quarters pole.
 When he left Bisbee some years ago. MT. Mason was in poor health, but hO IdinC udCh tulS WICK on NlSll with a boys smile and a young mans brave and cheerful heart. It was d treat to this simple newspaper man to meet this young old pioneer of the canyon. Not even Jim Brophy him self, happy pioneer that he is, is any younger or gayer than this man Ma son.
 Mason says he came to Bisbee when there were only two houses in the canyon, and to bear out his claim as the promoter and builder of our water works system. he declares that he used to furnish the town water with a bucket and dipper before the pipes were laid to the Naco wells.
 No man in the district is proudeI of it's growth and prosperity than MT. Mason of Oakland. Cal He is inter- ested in everything here for the good of the town. from the Wells-Fargo horse to the giant condenser plant to be built around the shoulder of the mountain from Warren. And his vis- its here are an inspiration and a de- light to his old friends. and his new friends, too.

12OO MINERS MAKE
 RETURNS ON INCOME

Report current recently that miners were not responding to the income tax call was repudiated yesterday at the Chamber of Commerce by Secretary Tom Egan and by the federal income tax agent.
 More than 1900 miners have made out their papers in this office" said Mir Egan. "Of that number we made out more than 100 yesterday" sup plemented the federal agent, and they are still coming"
 There entered at the moment young man who was plainly yet GO at tain voting age. He had a form in hand and wanted to know if he had correctly filled it out In the age space. 17 years was marked down.
 You do not have to pay income tax. You are under IS years of age," the federal agent told him.
 'I know I do not have to pay. but want to know if I can. I earned more than S10OO last year and I want to help the country out as much as the tax will amount to. It isn't the money so much either. as it is showing them that we have the number of people who are earning over 5000 and can produce the money. it seems to me
 You can pay" replied the agen,. The boy smiled happily and walked out The name of his blank was Frank Solhm.
 There has been more than one of that kind in here, and they all come with the same spirit" said the agent. Not a one of the more than 1900 min CTS who have been in here has had kick coming"

THE TENTH DAY.

And the Huns keep battering on. Slow ed down; checked even, slaughtered by the hundreds of thousands, but still trying to break those English lines that Europe has tried in vain for ten centuries to break. Nearly forty miles they have gained from their starting point to the tip of the salient. But there is good news along with the eter- nal word of fresh divisions coming up to continue the drive.
 GENERAL FOCH HAS BEEN MADE COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE AL LIED ARMIES IN FRANCE! Foch, the hero of the Marne The man of all men to direct the destinies of the right against the might of the world right now. Foch. the teacher who combines the skill and learning of the tactician with the do and dare of the soldier. Foch, the brilliant, far seeing, terrible Frenchman. Foch, who has hated the Hun ever since the rape of As ace and Lorraine, and who left Metz while still a youth to escape Prussian rule. Foch who has preached the coming of the Hun for twenty years and who tried to get France to prepare for the inevitable.
 Born in Tarbes, the birthplace of the great D'Artagnan, he has the flame of the south in his blood and the cold logic of the military schools No doubt now that blow will be struck with the might and main of the allied power with Foch in the sad die The Prussian has earned every foot of ground he has taken and paid for it with oceans of blood He will pay for holding it.
 In the meantime the great battle con tinues with unabated fury and the Ger mans continue. to bring up fresh troops and pour them into the shambles Every fresh event of this struggle shows more clearly the desperation of the Prussian gam ble They MUST break through and rout their French and English foes for they will not have the wherewithal to play again in this game of war
 The heavy attack upon Arras has failed, and it was undoubtedly part of the great plan. English lines have held everywhere for the past two days except a slight with drawal upon local sectors and the French continue their counter attacks.
 We will beat them yet, is the word from France. And by the living God! it is a good word for all of us to bear in mind these dark days of the real test of the strength of the spirit as well as the physical force of democracy arrayed against might

It looks as if the war is to be lost (so far as the Germans are concerned on the present series of initiatives) by the flower of the kaisers army. If the allies lose the present engagement the war has only begun It is but the prelude to the tragedy that will wipe out German imperialism just as sure as God reigns.

Easter morning will dawn in France even as it dawns here upon our peaceful hills, and its first bright, lily beam will fall up on shattered spires and broken church tow CTS and descrated altars and desolated lands and corpses that cover the battle fields like the sands upon the shore. Alas, for France. She is as the sepulchre before the third day. But she, too, will arise The Ro- man seal upon that mountain tomb of Palestine was broken, and so will the Prus- sian seal upon the fairest portion of E rance. Rome was mightier than Prussia And Right is mightier than Rome and Prussia combined. Easter morning in France. Listen to the soft sad notes of the bellsl Women in black and children with sad faces come, and their name is legion. They pray a little and look long towards Heaven from which the first and the last Easter morning of the world must come. Out of the power of the lion; out of the mouth of the dog shall France be delivered by that very radi- ant and immortal spirit of Easter Morn.

Sunday Morning Sermon


 And they said among themselves. who shall roll away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?"- Mark 16-3
 Thus wondered the two Marys. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary. as they ap- preached the mountain tomb of the Man of Sorrows on that first Easter morning some two thousand years ago.
 And when they looked they saw that the stone was rolled away"
 And we wonder as we climb the hill of life and grope among the world Is shadows, who shall roll away the stone that blocks the path who shall lift the veil and dissi- dark turks at our elbow; despair waits just ahead. And we say among ourselves, who shall help us3 What kindly light shall lead us on?
 An, always there is a way, if we only press on. Always there is light if we go as far as we can in the darkness to seek its rays.
 For these women who walked that morn ing to the sepulchre the light of the world had failed But they were faithful, even after death. They came with oil and spices to annoint the cold clay of Him they loved and worshipped. The Roman soldiers had placed great stone at the door of the tomb and sealed 1t with the inviolate seal of Rome.
 Who shall roll away the stone? ?" won dered the women. Like all the other count less children of time who have come before and after them, along the way of life. they c. aI. rocks immovable; obstacles that made hap piness and success unobtainable.
 But they were brave and true and they pressed on And To, they found that the rock was gone A power greater than the Roman soldier had removed 1t from its place A hand mightier than the seal of Rome had broken Romes seal.
 And inside the tomb they found not lifeless clay and place of mourning and dispair, but a radiant figure who gave them the greatest, gladdest tidings the world has ever known He whom ye seek hath arisen" said the angel Go and tell His disciples"
 And it so to this day. The brave and the true go on and on through the dark and find the dawn Formidable doubts melt away before the dauntless ones of earth. After death cometh life.
 Two women, weak and weary, were the first and only worshippers on the first Easter morning. Today countless millions of all lands under the sun bend the knee in worship before the Cross. The stone was rolled away! Let us go forward up the hill of tears and laughter. The darkness will disappear; the door will open. And we shall enter in to place where true hearts dwell. There is always a stone in the way doubt; and there is always hand to move the stone and the doubt away for those who are resolute enough to keep on to the end. Don't vvorrv tbe American troons are
