Oh, Wilhelmina, may not congratulate you on your
guest? His merry ways will hit the spot and give your
humdr1m life new zest. There's something doing all the
time when little Willie is on deck some fascinating
curves in crime, stunts in arson, de2 and wreck
He's come to eat your Holland prunes VII you he'll rest
and break his fast and would always count the spoons
when he has finished his repas The kaiser at your door
has knocked, you've let him in, without his CROWN now
see the henhouse safely locked and all your porabes
nailed down. Oh, Wilhemina, may not suggest safe
deposit vault for all the goods you prize lot for every
thing except the salt? Your visitors charming skate
when he has will and wish to please but while ne strives
to fascinate hang firmly to your cupboard keys No
doubt twill grieve your gentle heart to him with his
crownless brow but you should bid your tears depart u
til you have secured the His hair is white his cheek
pale he bears the marks of misery but while you listen
to his tale just chain your palace to tree He'll doubt
less talk of Me und Gott until your womans heart is
sore; but, Wilhelmna may not suggest strong new

A SOLDERsS VISION

There's a little girl I'm loving in the
land across the sea;
Through the softness OF the twilight she
comes creeping close to me!
] can almost feel her handclaps, can see
her tender eyes,
AS they glow across the darkenSs with a
light that never dies.
All, a hard day lies behind me-there's a
bitter dawn ahead;
There's man next door who's moaning
and my bunkie mate lies deadI
But she's coming through the shadows,
and her glance is misty bright,
And l know her love Is near me through
the horror of the night.
Yes-she gave me to our country, though
she might have made me stay
(aow she kissed me smiling bravefy. as
she brushed the tears a%ay;1
And her voice rings past the meaning,
past the battle raging near
And she says. BE true and fearless,
just because you you, dear!
There's a little girl, she's waiting In the
land across the foam,
And I know that she is praying that
with honor I'll come home;
And make myself. a promise that I'll
justify her plan
The ideal that she sets me Of a soldier
and man.

RETROSPECT OF 1917
THE WORLD WAR.
editorial from the Scientific
AmericaO.

1t is probable that, when the history
of the war comes to be written, the
year 1917 will named the most
dramatic of the world war-unless in
dees the opening year of the war be so
designated. 1t was the year in which
the Allies demonstrated everywhere
that they were the masters of the sit
uation, possessing a superiority in men,
guns, shells and supplies, which prom
Used soon to become overwhelming.
The French army was larger in num-
bers, finer in morale, and more fully
equipped than at any time in the war.
The same may be said Of the British
army; and Lloyd George, at the close
OF the year, stated in the house Of
commons that, in the early months OF
1917 the Russian army was in better
shape than at any previous period. Not
only was Italy holding the Austrians,
but she was actually forcing them back
in a series of offensives which, for
courage and persistence, have never
been surpassed on any front. SO COM
pletely was Germany on the defensive
that the French and British were able
to crush in her line and take prisoners
by the thousands and many guns, APP
parently whenever they thought fit to
do so. So precarious was the situation
in the west early in the year that Hin
denburg was forced to withdraw on
the Somme front, give up some ten
miles of territory and take refuge in
a prepared line of great defensive
strength.
The first of the dramatic happen
ings of the war was that startling
tragedy, the Russian revolution. Had
there been in that country a man or
body of men who combined with their
undoubted patriotism the necessary
genius for leadership, the revolution
would have been a powerful stroke for
the allied cause Instead of that, Rus
STA was invaded by a body of interest
ed agitators, pro-German or pro-an-
archy who, working upon the minds
of an ignorant and too trustful people,
have succeeded in changing that great
country from a compact nation into a
disorganized mob. The German auto
erals from the Kaiser down, have been

MORE CAREFUL DRIVING

Recent accidents compel very serious
reflections on the part of thinking men
with reference to the reckless driving
of motorcyclists, trock drivers, and ci-
william chauffeurs. The narrow roads
in camp and the greatly increased traf-
fic, lead to serious congestion at GER
tain periods of the day and night.
What with officers on horseback, ar
tillerymen exercising their horses,
rickety wagons drawn by a single
mule, delivery trucks from city stores,
jitneys driven by novices familiar with
a wheelbarroW, side cars attached to
motorcycles, and the large "F. D. WIS"
the roads are frequently TANNED
The reactions Of some men are
hardly swift enough for the pace main
tanned. The psychological tests are
given to drivers, either in camp or in
Augusta. The natural recklessness of
some. men is greatly increased by the
military drill and the anticipation Of
actual warfare. Safety First" is not
a proper motto in battle or in the pres
ence' of the enemy, but he who takes
care of himself and acts with reason
in any complicated situation is able
to erert his powers over a longer pc
Rod and generally to use them to
greater advantage than one who
throws his life away To sell ones
vitality for the largest possible return
is really as good business proposition.
Less haste, more speed" is a bad
motto In this connection. And
"He who drives carefully and gets
away,
May live to drive another day"

THE REASON WHY

We are a bunch of husky lads
We come from dear old Phillie,
Give us a chance to go to France
And wen knock the Germans silly.
The war Wen win; Wen enter Berlin
And Wen capture Kaiser Billy
That is the reason why we left
Our homes in dar old Phillie.
We are a bunch of fearless chaps
From the City of Brotherly Love,
Give us a chance to so to France
And our courage We Will prove
The war Wen win: Wen enter Berlin
Or Wen enter Heaven abovel
That is the reason why we left
The City of Brotherly Love.

EULoGY OF A SERGEANT

There's a sergeant in our company
And you bet he is a peach.
He works his men from reVeille
To long after retreat.
When we are on drill grounds
You bet he's on the job,
For he's always yelling at you:
Dress, up that sloppy squad"
And when he takes his class out
For bayonet exercise,
The neighbors here for miles around
Complain about his cries.
And II you do not do 1t
With vigor and with vim,
Believe me. when you are dismissed.
You'll surely hear from him.
There are some men in the company
That he surely likes to ride,
And when they see him coming
They always try to hide,
For they know there is some work to do
That will take them quite awhile,
And nine chances out of ten
It's on the old wood pile.
Now when we come to think of it,
Perhaps we are to blame;
But the way thaa sergeant works US
1t surely is a shame.
For, believe me, he makes us work
The whole darn livelong day,
And with the axes in our hand
The penalty we pay.
But in his tough old bosom
Lies heart or truest gold.
And we'll think of Sergeant Blean1e
When we are gray and old.
And when the war is over,
We may meet again some day.
And talk the whole thing over
Back home in old Pa.

THROUGH THE WORST TO THE
BEST.

Even in the army are some who fee
that they are enduring all ythe ills Of
life, that temptations are more severe
for them than for others, that prev
ious experiences have untitled then
for efficiency. Under discoura gement
they have succnmbed. Seemingly They
do not realize that the fire refines
gold. The following comparison bs
Adelaide Kennerly may help such az
one.
A giant sassafras near KeswicI,
Va, some years ago, had a. hollow
trunk, with it's top broken off and
it seemed ready to die. Somebody
started q fire it in. The fire was
stopped with difficulty and it was
thought that the tree was killed.
Striking example of humanity as
1t is--no different. Let a per-
son Sc apparently empty of what
other people want, and someone
will try to destroy. The man or
woman who missteps or allows one
foot to start on the downward
path may be sure of a push
q fire within or around to destroy
them.
But this old sassafras tree was
an exception, 1t did not die after
the fire. On the contrary the tor
ture it endured only burned out the
parasites that We're eating the heart
from the tree.
Strong sOld Tree.
1t was a strong old tree. 1t had
misunderstanding noble way
down deep under the surface which
willed that 1T should not only live
but survive the torture with
triumphant heart
After the fire the old trunk with
its clean Within" branched out
like the springtime and now stands
crowned with Strong, healthy,
Z. boughs, adding beauty to the seen
cry and giving of its pure self to
the world.
So do some souls tower above the
weaklings. Souls have been puri-
fled by years of suffering; by white
hot fires of the brain which burned
to ashes all that was vile or impure
in thoughts.
Fluffy Nothings Go Under.
The fluffy nothings of life go
down to ashes with the fire, the
pains, the repulsions and the tor
lures of life. but the rare persons
survive them and stand as symbols
of great spirits. They show what
can be withstood They are as the
sun which passes through poIlu-
ton and comes out clean.
There is none so worthy as one
who passes through the worst and
comes out the best.

so that the soldiers might have
something good in their pockets

men. These organizations have

Considerable opposition seems
to be developing in Portland
over Judge Gantenbein's can
didacy for reelection. The main
objection seems to be that he
refused to serve as major in
Uncle Sans service. He as
pired for a colonelency. but was
offered a commission as major
instead. which he declined to
accept.
