BY Amelia Josephine Burr OF the vigt-
Iantes.
Last year IL was our heritage. the red
and white and blue:
Our grandsires died TO raise 1t and our
sires to keep Il true.
We prayed we might be worthy OF
their memory as we cast
In shimmering beauty to the wind the
banner OF our past.
But now-O God. our hearts are with
our living and our dead!
Bone OF our bone the white has grown,
flesh OF our flesh the red.
Our substance and our souls are
pledged TO keep IL undefled.
Last year it was our heritage-today
it is our child.

HOW KAISER COMFORTS
MOTHER WHO LOST SONS

The difference between autocracy
and democracy, between an emperor
and president, between Germany and
the United States, is symbolized by
the following letters-two messages
of coincidence written to mothers who
had given several sons in battle.
The first was written recently by
Emperor William of Germany to
Frau Meter of Delmenhorst-Olden
burg, who had lost nine n in the
war. Compare with it the second let.

Lincoln to Mrs. Bixby who lost five

O.. Henry Used His Brains.

An editor gave o. Henry an order
for a short story, which was to be
delivered at a specified date.
The time for the story came, but
the editor did not receive it. Think
ing it would arrive soon, he waited
for several days, but still the story
failed to arrive. The editor then re-
minded O. Henry of the fact that his
story was overdue, and the author
replied that he would have it ready
the next day. When another day hao
passed and still no story, the editor
became angry, and wrote to, o. Henry:

C~9lEUTENANT ELY, it is ours reverently to
acknowledg e the service youhave rendered.
~ To your country and ours, you gave all
you had to give, a life, young and buoyant, offered
when you had but just arrived at life's fullest UNDER
standing-and more than this no man can give.
But in the giving, sir, you gave as well the out
pour of your stout young heart that all of us to
whom you pass along the touch might offer prayer,
and carry on in better understanding of that
ennobled cause for which no sacrifice shall be in vain.
Some of US are far behind the fighting lines of
France today. For circumstance has made two
battle lines, and there must be therefore those gone
to fight, and others kept behind to carry on al home.
But as you say, both lines bring chance for
deeds we'll done, and great investments too.
Little did you know, Lieutenant Ely, when you

country"
The Fourth Liberty Loan is now announced.
Do you think, Lieutenant Ely, that we shall
soon forget your admonition-or that we shall not
proudly subscribe for all we possibly can of your
country's Liberty Bonds, which you so nobly ~glorified?
Indeed, we can do no less, for it seems to us
that each subscription blank must bear your parting

but it is highly improbable that any
circumstances except those of the ut
most urgency will persuade General
Foch to exhaust the Americans for
defensive purposes.
Americans Best for Drive.
There is no other force of fighters
left in the world that contains such
splendid offensive material as the
Americans. This is because America
is the only first class power left that
still has its young men intact; and 1t
is the youths in the twenties who
make the best offensive soldiers.
1t is improbable too that General
cumstances to the permanent employ
ment of these virile. active young
Americans for defensive trench war
fare. Nor is it likely he will be agree
able to their employment for a major
offensive until there are enough Amer
leans in France to give a reasonable
surety of success.
To Give Men Experience.
The brigading of Americans during
the present series of combats is an ad-
mirable procedure for completing
their training. 1t is futile for soldiers
to enter upon offensive operations
with simply training in the theory
of warfare. Actual practice is abso-
lutely necessary for the Americans
and this they can get with maximum
results thru the brigading method.
But, the brigading is only prelimi-
nary to the real thing, and the real
thing will come when there are suffi-
cient Americans in France for an Of
fensive on a gigantic scale that may
push the fighting front well into Ger
many between the Lorraine border and
the Rhine. For the American armies
to be held back until a plan such as
this can be matured is the highest
compliment the allies can pay the

New York. May 14.-Official indi-

Pershing's forces are not to be held
back simply as reserves while the
British and French troops bear the
brunt of the fighting on the west
trent.
The main hope OF the allies for a
victory over Won Hindenburg rests on
the coming offensive strength of the
American armies in France. There
car be little hope for positive vic
tory however, in the brigading of
American units with British and
French divisions. The brigading pro-
cess was adopted as an urgent de-
fensive necessity with no indication
that it was to be a permanent method
CT using the Americans in France.
When the full force or Americas mill
tary strength begins to be felt in
France, there will be far too many
troops under General Pershing for
the brigading process to be continued

TO CONFER IN. MEXICO
Texas Governor to Talk Over Matters
With Mexican Governor,

Austin, Tex, May 14.-Governor w.
P. Hobby of Texas left today for Eagle
Pass, for an important conference
with Governor Gustave ESpinoZa
Mierles, of the Mexican state of Goa
hula, at which plans for elimination
of much of the border trouble now
existing are expected to be formulated.
Governor Mierles is one of the few
Mexican officials of real influence who
is pro-American in sympathy, and the
conference with Governor Hobby is
therefore regarded as of no little inter-
national Importance, in view of the
pro-German propaganda campaign
which has been conducted in northern
Mexico recently.
