They reviewed at the camp men who

enemy and who will shortly return to

You men who have not been called
upon to go overseas need not feel
that you are not a part of the great
American army of which I and all
your fellow countrymen are so proud.
You are a part of it, and essential
part of 1t. for you have been ready.
THE fact that you have been
ready, though not privileged to see
actual fighting, has given you a high
place in the world. In the years to
come the young men of the nation
will look upon you with the awe with
which youth always associates the
mighty deeds of a past generation"

pride for our soldiers in France not.

Muck's "CitizenShip."

(From the Boston Evening Record.)
The soul of America was cleaner
the moment that Karl Muck was
locked up. The freedom of America
was safer when the government re-
moved him from among honorable
Americans.
1t is gratifying news that the Swiss
government has decided not to press
it's claim that DR.. Muck was one of
its citizens. We think that the citi-
zenship of Muck is more than Switzer-
land could support without nausea.
Let DR.. Muck's allegiance remain
where it belones-in Berlin.
We never heard of the great Swiss
conductor of the Symphony orches-
ira" We do not understand that DR..
Muck came to our land by grace Of
the Swiss government. We never
were asked to believe that DR.. Muck
was the bearer of Swiss culture or
Swiss musical Interpretation to the
United States.
What a shallow and sickening chap
ter was all this cant and pother about
Mucl1's Swiss citizenship" He reeks
of German foundation--iu part fine,
in part vile. In so far as he thrilled us
with memories of the music masters
Of old Germany, in so far as through
his baton the splendor of Beethoven
was given new significance and added
aiesty for us he was fine. But that
Germany is buried in the past for us
now Maybe it will be dug up again,
when the people Of Germany learn.
the truths of humanity and slough
off the foulness of Kultur and Krupp.
For the time. we may see Muck only
as he made himself appear to Amer
ica-German of Germans, in sym
pathy with the denominations which
are the familiars of his hell-taught
preceptor and master, the Kaiser. The
Swiss citizenship" claim was made
when it appeared to protect him from
Justice, to cloak his Germanism in
time when Germanism became intol-
era BILE.
We congratulate our friend Switzer-
land for deciding to wash its hands
of dirty mess.

Left sorrOwing because of war
Each fallen hero leaves behind.
Someone who loved to bear grief's
scar.
God pities all with lashes wet
And lie is in His Heaven yet
Dish gardening MESA ees shall crush
And sorrow drown our hearts with
tears,
But we must dash them all aside
While this hope comes to lull our
fears;
Let not your troubled hearts forget
That God is in His Heaven yet.
The precious blood Of heroes must
Be shed; reward shall come in time.
For ages men have sacrificed
Their lives for right and truth sub
Let not the present stru cycle fret,
For God is in His Heaven yet.
Today seems dark: light lies beyond
Reward awaits all duty done.
Our children end their children shall
Reap the rich benefits being won
For therl by heroes blood and
sweat
A just God rules in Heaven yet
He hears each agonizing cry;
Did He not shrink in pleading prayer,
Fearing to drain his bitter sup?
He knows each pang how hard to
bear.
Let not our sinking hearts forget
That He IS in His Heaven yet.
The sun of peace shall one day shine
Perpetual; lasting shall it be;
\ blest mem orial to those
Who died for world democracy.
The red sun of this war shall set;
Trust on--GOd rules in Heaven vet.
