"Over in France where the death

The boys are fighting as in a dream;
A glorious dream of blood and hell,
While / stay at home and prosper
WELL
Over in France they are dying now
Like green grass turned by a giant
plow;
They are going across with a smile

While stay home IA security.
Over in France the gas clouds roll
And the shower of steel is taking its
toll;
The flag drives on, but the boys lie
still,
While live on and eat my fill.
Great God in heaven, In whom we
trust,
Turn the food in my throat to dust
If I miss one chance that may come
to me
To help bring them home in Victory"

History Of a Star.


The history Of star begins with
dust and ends with dust. It takes it's
form out Of chaotic nebulae, passes
through period Of life, grows cool,
then dark and dead, and ultimately
dashes into another dark cloud of
star dust, and is thus turned back into
nebula.
We on earth live our lives In such q
short moment that evolution among
the stars is not at once apparent. 1t
would require great many centuries
to actually see blue sun become
white, then yellow, then finally red.
While 1t is not possible to watch any
one star living it's life, yet by noting
the characteristics Of a great many,
complete and logical chain Of evil
dence may be found, which includes
representative stars Of every type in
the sky.

EMPHASIZE IMPORTANCE
OF LIVE STOCK CENSUS

The Cattle and Hog Census which
Is being taken by school children is
urgently required for the work of the
United States Food Administration.
The present gravity of the pork and
beef situation, tho need of knowing
the extent and location of meat sup
plies for export as well as for use in
this country and the exigency Of ascer-
tanning where dairy herds will be
available to stock the lands that will
be cultivated after the war and for
the farms of the Allied countries
actually necessitate the taking of this
census.
