IF THE HUN SHOULD WIN.

They say each child in Germany Strives ever and alway , To do his bit to win the war Tho little knowing what it's for, He's busy every day. Suppose we lose our lovely land Because our children fail to stand! Run, run, little one, Sell paper, iron or tin; T were shame to tell you what might be, What sickening scenes of cruelty My child, if the Hun should win! We hear that maids in Germany Foil on thrO' gloom and night; Rel-eyed with tears for lovers slain, They mOil--n,v, even honor stain To add to vandal might.
 O, think! Columbia on her knees Because our girls must live at ease?
 Work, maid. tho beauty fade! Spare perfume, lace and pin;
 Your luxury is dearly bought; Your fondest dre2ns are less than
 naught, Fair girl, if the Hun should win! They tell how youths O. Germany
 hush eager to the fray; Cbedient to a deSpOts call
 Like friends they light; they shell
 the wall Where kneeling people pray
 Our minute-men from graves must
 start Should America fail to do her part! Left, right, join the fight On to battles din!
 A craven, cringing slave you'd be To insatiate greed and tyranny,
 Young man, if the Hun should win. We read that wives in Germany
 Drudge until hands are numb; They freely give to country-s cause, They reverently obey food-iaws, Conserving every crumb,
 In danger dire our country lies Unless our women sacrifice.
 Mother, wife, give your life! Go, knit and sew and spin:
 Preserve your home, your paradise. We nan would pay a fearful price I-h, God, if the Hun should win! We're told the men of Germany
 Have special parts to play; Unfit of limb, or eyesight dim,
 They proffer selves and purses slim To serve in diverse way.
 Consider-freedOm, honor loSt Should our men falter at the cost!
 Rouse, man.. your fury fam Against the tyrant's sin.
 For what are lands and bank notes
 worth? You need but bare six feet Of earth, O man, if the Hun should winl
