The 72d's Prayer.
nY RrcHARp z. pARF.

COMPANY II, I'D 1nfantry.)
From the groves Of California
And the chilly woods Of Maine,
From the Oxarks Of Arkansas
And the Arizona plains,
Gathered up from all the Union,
We were sent up to Camp Meade
To make up the 72d,
It's q glorious gang indeed.
Some Of Us, came clear from jersey,
Lots are sons Of Italy,
But we've all the same ambition,
uncle, send us over-sea."
We don't mind the drills and SIX. P"
What are they in our young life2
And we'll drill our blooming heads OF
If you'll send US In the strife.
Course we're ignorant and "greenies"-
Rome was not built in one day
Just q chance and Wen be happy,
And the dirty Hun Wen slay.
When the roll is called in Berlin,
Let us be thefe with the rest.
II we don't make such a showing,
We'll, we'll always do our best.
All the older outfits reckon
That we'll never learn to drill,
But our hearts there, Uncle Sammy,
You've the men here with the will.
An account TO you we'll render
When our turn comes Overseas"
There'n be nc. one any prouder
When the time returns for peace.
Let us 60 to France, oh, Uncle,
Send us soon, we're needed there,
And we'll show the best that's in uG~A
That's the 72d's prayer.

HOOP ROLLER MAKES !.
BIG HIT At coy
Howard Nichols Makes Deput in
~" Hut and Vaudeville
Show Is Fine.

Members of the 154th Depot Brigade
who saw last Saturday nights vaude-
VILE show at Y. M. C. A. &C say 1t
was one Of the best shows they have
seen in camp. The audience was an
enthusiastic one, and every act An
ished to a great demonstration of ap-
prevail. The program was a varied one
and included some exceptional talent.
A feature Of the bill was the playing
of Ralph Mixers orchestra. Mixer, of
the Liberty Theater Orchestra, has a
combination Of which he may we'll feel
proud. His program Saturday night
included brand-new numbers, and il
injected a whole lot Of spice into the
performance. Howard Nichols, the star
hoop roller. made his debut among the
brigade boys, and they are talking
about him yet His act doesn't include
a single mediocre stunt, and despite
the handicap of small stage he ham
died his hoops with extraordinary re-
suits.
Monologue Clever.
Stokes and Rogers. the singer and
the pianist. put over q couple Of songs
SA0S WOhS Ot8p AIL0E WHICH kIOKSTS
contributed syncopated plano num-
Der that stamped him as, q clever rag
player. Those who have seen the late
Cltn Gordon would have enjoyed hear
Ing Charles Country do his impersona-
ton Of the clever monologue man.
Country wasn't on a minute before he
had the boys shrieking with laughter
In short, he knocked 'em off their
pins with a line Of chatter along
political lines. It was the hit Of the
show. and Country has been signed up
Tor return engagement.
Pat Panza can always be relied upon
to have some new songs. He rendered
three OF them in position No. and
registered his usual hit. His imita-
fion or AL Jolson doing a number was
especially clever.
Sergt. Maj. McKelvey favored with
one Of his dramatic recitations, "A So
cial PERIL" and finished to a big hand.
Corp. Maurice Wallen did a turn of
solos and was in fine voice. Violinist
Mixer played for Wallen's songs in a
most artistic manner. Ethan Katz
closed the show with a powerful pres
entation Of Robert Serviss' famous
poem. THE Shooting of Dan McGrew."
KATE has punch to his work that
stamps him as an elocutionist of the
first water.
The orchestra caught the crowd at
the finish with lively exit march.

Seeing It Through.
C0RR. p. Z. WKITAKH1.

Every young man who has red
blood in his veins can remember
that famous man, Hugh Jen-
hings, the ball player, and his
klogan: "The games never over
ELL the last mans out"
circumstances as they now are
taking shape in Europe show
some resemblance to ball
game. The allies are having
their innings, the kaiser is sure
~ tanning, the spectators are
proclaiming a win. Yet the
kame is not won by any means,
and will never be decided until
the allies have finished the ninth
Inning with a home run and the
bases full.
Enthusiastically we peruse our
morning paper and comment
EpAn the splendid and valiant
Inducements by our overseas
brothers; and justly do we
praise, dor in every sector Of the
Fighting territory Our forces
have beaten the Hun decisively
and moved on to fresher COM
quests.
Notwithstanding, those at
home must not lessen their
virilanc6 in the light of these
happenings. Like the foolish.
virgins, they should not slumber
at their posts, for that which
has been achieved can be en-
larged upon; three, four and five
times the strength already dis
played can be and shall be ex-
erted in the conflict.
If all are barring the head to
receive the crown of laurel our
predecessors have woven, then
the morale of the fighting force
here is impaired, and in addition
those in civil life are given
wrong impression of the state
OF affairs, and therefore slacken
ii their contributions.
This sort of thing cannot come
TO pass, for the fight is not yet
won or even about to be won,
despite the cries of triumph and
peace. Stretching before us is
the long rugged path of strife,
strewn with the debris of war,
while on the horizon shines the
bright sun of entire victory,
without compromise, without
concessions. without quarter.
ct us plod that road with re-
bowed vigor.
