SINCE YOU WENT AWAY

Since you went away, every gay sailor
lad,
Every Khaki clad soldier I see,
Has Mace in my heart, and share
in my thoughts,
And belongs just little, to me.
He's comrade OF yours, and IS bear
ing his share
OF the burden that rests upon you;
Both are doing the task which a ma
ton has set
For it's glorious manhood to do.
Since you went away I have entered
within
A sisterhood mystic and great
OF women who've learned the great
lesson, to give,
And are learning another, to wait.
But l strive like the rest, not to doub'
or to fear,
To murmur, or sigh, or complain,
But to trust in His might, and to know
in His eye,
That the sacrifice cannot be vain.
Since you went away, every fold o.
the flag
has message that Iehuel s'h'
true;
1t has always meant liberty, freedom
and right,
1t now means my country-and you
Your honor is part of the deep azure
field,
Your courage, of each crimson bar
And the soul of you, shining, resplend
ent and clear,
Is a part of each beautiful star.

in the Great Lakes Bulletin, the ofiicia

NEWS FROM FORT
WORDEN, WASHINGTON

Mrs. G. G. Knoller of Dancy has
received the following letter from her
son, George, who left here not very
long ago with the fifth contingent Of
Marathon county selects for Fort
Worden, Washington:
Dear Mother:
got both of your letters and the
papers, and was very glad to get them
all. The boys from Wausau were as
pleased at having the papers to read
as l was.
am feeling fine now. eat like a
morse ana DelleVe l am getting fat.
Wen get another incubation next
week and then everything will look
blue for a while again, but 1 don't
mind that any more. AS 1 become
accustomed to the life the more l like
IL. Monday we are going to have
target practice with the IL inch NOR
tars. They are monstrous guns, weigh
ing IL tons each and cost $500 every
time they are fired-some money. The
projectile weigh approximately 700 lbs.
Our captain is leaving us for Fort
Monroe, Virginia, soon, so we'll have
new one. This is a Coast Artillery
Fort, and quite an important one too.
Searchlights are playing on the ships
which are constantly passing at night
You see this is the entrance to Seattle
and the whole northwest, so as a
| consequence it is heavily fortified
There are four forts located within
| the radius of miles. There is no
possibility of an enemy vessel get
| ting in.
The new Y. M. c. A. was formally
dedicated last Wednesday with an ap-
propriate ceremony. They are won
| derful institution, and boon to the
| soldier.
Today we witnessed our first mil
| itary funeral and believe me it was
very impressive. Captain Hill died at
another fort. A government boat
| brought his body into the fort, where
all the fort officers, a firing squad, COM
| posed of an entire platoon from the
| 9Th, our company, and the 63rd Regi-
| ment band, met the corpse. They
| marched through the fort street up
| to the cemetery, the drum muff1ed and
+ draped, the flags at half mast, and
the band playing softly a funeral
march. At the grave the firing squad
| fired three volleys and the bugler
sounded taps which always con-
| cludes the ceremony. On the way
marching back the band played lively
airs presumably to expell the awe
some air of depression left by the
| slow and sad music of the funeral
| march. So you will see we are be-
| coming acquainted.
Yesterday we all marched upon the
hill to Battery Benson and witnessed
target practice by the siege guns and
the 10 inch disappearing Coast De-
| tense rifles-firing sub-calibre.
| The weather for the last day or sc
has been beautiful, which also has an
| exceedingly heartening effect. Well
l must close with love to all.
