It's a secret-and we'll keep it well,
Your brother and you and the ocean,
And nobody's going to tell.
You were only tot when | left you.

And kissed you, little bit fiustered,
And you promised you never would
cry.
But | know that you cried, little sister,
AS soon as I'd gone out the door,
And did | cry myself? I'm soldier,
SO don't ask me anything more.
think of you often, kid sister
You're the only kid sister I've got
| know you'll be good to your mother,
And know that you'll help her a
lot.
And whenever she seems to be gloomy,
You Just got to cheer her somehow.
You were only kid to your brother,
But you're more than the world to
him now.

CURRENT COMMENT.

THE Red Cross war fund drive oc-
ours through the week of May 20,
beginning Monday of next week and
continuing to Saturday night. A fund
spring for the purpose and at least
an equal amount must be raised again.
Last year the impelling motive was
largely to make provision for the care
of Allied soldiers and their families
and for comfort of our own boys in
American camps. For the coming
year it is not difficult to see that the
fund will be chiefly for the care of
our own boys in service at the front.
We have given them, but we intend
that everything possible be done for
their protection while they are fight
ing our battles We can follow them
only through those organized efforts
of the American people of which the
Red Cross stands first. 1t is our aim,
extended for their care and protec
ton. 1t is the expression of the spirit
of the American people unfolding the
soldiers and caring for their families.
Whatever the Red Cross asks of the

QUITTING a time limit on the war is
the idlest of speculation. One
guess is as good as another. There is
no safe basis for any guess. At the
outset there were eminent men,
statesmen and soldiers agreeing, who
expected an early decision. How could
a struggle of such mammoth proper
lions be long continued? Neither man
power nor money power could be
found for long war. Lord Kitchen
err, England's foremost soldier, shook
his head, said three years at least, and
was laughed at. But he began prep
arations on that basis. and it is we'll
he did. The war has now been in pro-
gress three years and nine months,
and both sides are still in the field in
enormous numbers, and subscribing
money in unprecedented quantities in
their efforts to win. The end is the
wish of ALL But the end is not in
sight. None of the governments en-
gagged is preparing for the end. On
the contrary, all are bracing them
selves for additional sacrifices of all
kinds.
