IF WE ONLY KNEW.

If we only knew the cares and trials
Knew the efforts all IN VAIN
And the bitter Disappointment
Understood the loss and gaiIl-
Would the grim eternal roUSnnesS
Seem, wonder just the same
Should we help where now we him
der,
Should we pity where We blame?
Ah. we judge each other harshly,
Knowing not life's hidden force;
Knowing not the front Of action;
Is. less turbid at its source:
Seems not amid the evil
All the golden grains Of good,
And we'd love each other better
~ If we only understood.
Cousd we judge all deeds and motives
That surround each others lives
See the naked heart and spirit,
) Know what spur the. action gives
@Often we would find it better
Just to judge all actions good;
We should love each other better.
If we only understood.

Baseball in France.

The American soldiers are teach
ing the people of France the great
American game of baseball and
have experienced many humorous
incidents in staging their games
in the French villages where the
troops are quartered. Sergeant
H. H. Russ, Co. E., 163rd infant
ry-the Montana company To-
Gated in Lewiston last summer
has written a very interesting
letter to Lewiston friend, the
following being an excerpt from
the letter received:
Baseball seems to be new to
the French people and it was
hard to make them understand
that they had to keep out of the
diamond or get hit by a ball.
After one old man stopped a fast
foul with the side of his head, the
people all scampered for cover
and got behind trees to witness
the remainder of the game"

GRADE CROSSING
NUISANCE BUT

American Army Chauffeurs
Delayed by Gates Watch
Army Trains.

SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE. Oct.
1S.-If the average American army
chauffeur were asked. What is the
biggest nuisance in France ?" he would
in SO cases out of 100, reply with the
greatest promptness. "'The grade
crossing"
There are thousands of grade cross
ings on every railway in France. and
every one of them is protected by a
set of gates. which drop into position
long before train gets near the spot
and apparently remain there long
after the train has passed.
Many an army chauffeur, taking his
fill of speed along a straight, tree
lined national road" has found his
way suddenly barred by an aggravat-
ing pair of crossing gates. The war
trains of France are long and heavy
laden, and seem to take an intermin-
able time. in passing the given point.
But after the American becomes re-
conciled to. these delays. he begins TO
find the passing trains an interesting
study. The traffic which they carry
lis always a picture of wartime activity

RED GROSS BAZAAR
 |S GREAT SUCCESS

TEMPE, May 12-The Red Cross bazaar at Tempe Friday afternoon and evening is thing of the past, but not so the influence and good feeling which will come out of the bazaar. The crowd which gathered has been esti- mated by many at 1500 people and is the biggest which has been gathered together here for several years. Mrs. J. B, Cook, who had the bazaar in charge, showed excellent executive ability in the planning and carrying out of the affair. It would be im- possible to give the corps of workers but special mention should be made of the Mothers Spanish Speaking club who did the biggest part of the work in making 1000 tamales, and of the many young Spanish women who served the lunch. the strawberries and the ice cream. The tamale supply was exhausted in two hours time, fifteen gallons of cream were sold and a tub and a half of berries.

Mosier and Mrs. Edna Coo per presided over the lemonade. Mrs. B. B. Mouer and Mrs. c. C. Woolf had charge of the produce booth in which were all kinds of fruits both canned and fresh, vegetables, eggs, etc. These brought in a good sum. Much of the produce was donated by the Scottsdale women, as were also a number of fancy articles.
 The fish pond was soon sold out and had to be replenished and was sold out quickly again. Mrs. Edna Yelling ton and Miss Letha Hackett had charge of the candy and pop corn. One booth which attracted much attention was the one which Mrs. A. B. Clark and Mrs. A. J. Matthews had charge of. In it were war cook books which were compiled by the Normal chef and students. These sold for 25 cents each and netted the bazaar s37.5o. Mrs. Joseph Birchett and Mrs. H. B, Clary had charge of a booth in which the work of the Red Cross was shown. They also took Red Cross member ships. As these women are surgical dressings graduates they were dressed in costume.
