The Worried Soldier.

He was dreaming through the drilling
he was half step behind,
He was marching like soldier whe
had something on his mind,
And the colonel who was watching as
his boys were on review,
Couldn't understand the trouble butt
the, sergeant-major knew.
Once he broke the line by missing the
command to make a wheel,
And they Numbered curses at him tilE
his,brain began to reel,
His captain called him lazy, his lieu
tenant scored him, too,
And they wondered why he faltsred,
butythe sergeant-major knew.
When at last the drill was over and.
the line had been dismissed,
They put the laundering soldier on
their extra duty list.
But the serg eant-major saved him.
when the colonel heard him say:
He HASN'T had a letter from his folks,
in many a day.
Would YOU help him in his BATTLE.
wouldiyou keep his mind in trim2.
Then send some cheerful message
every day or two to him,
Every soldier understands it, when
they're passing out the mail
The boy who is forgotten is the boy
who's-swre to fail.

when we say we are fighting for lem
ocracy it means something.
/ saw number of German prison
ers, some of whom passed through my
hands, and the reports Of the state
ments made by the prisoners we took
all eventually came to me. Invariably
they are tired of the war. They did
not seem to understand what the war
is about. All seem to think, and they
are conscientious about it, that they
fight for the preservation Of Ger
many and for their existence. They
do not understand, as they put it,
why the United States picks on"
them. They show plainly that they
have been so deluded by their leaders
that they believe they are fighting
for self-preservation. They were sur
prised to find so many Americans in
front of them, and they were sur
prised to find them so efficient and
disciplined. They are invariably anx-
ious TO see the war come to an end.
They have been told that If they were
captured they would be killed. They
were surprised and gratifed when
they found they would be given kind
treatment.
They reported that their food sup
ply was very poor up to the Time the
spring vegetable crop began to ripeny
but when the vegetables came in it
improved. Their clothing ranged
from good to very poor. They exhibit,
no bitterness against their own gov
eminent. They are absolutely loyal
The troops in front of as were
largely Bavarfan Landwehr. Their
ages ranged from 80 to As They had
shock troops who were young
men. Those we captured were II to
%.
There is very little sickness among
the Wisconsin troops They look like
trained athletes. They are larger
than the French and quicker in their
movements. They learn the trick of
warfare very quickly. The French
express much surprise at the reach
ness with which they acquire instruc-
tion and have great admiration for
them. The Americans learn to talk
French with the >French soldiers very
rapidly, and so do the French pick up
English quickly. Tie French
language is easy to read, but very diff
ficult to speak. Americans are very
eager to obtain newspapers which
contain any news of the war. When
they cannot procure an English
edition they buy French papers.
They figure, out for themselves as
much as they can, or get some French
man to translate the leading articles.

According to story the three mem

of lightning entered the left upper
portion of Sells head, tearing a small
hole through his skull. It is quite
evident that the wet lines, held by
Sells, acted as a conductor of cleo
tricity as the dead horses mouth was
severely torn. The railroad ties at
