Ne1U "OUerseas Caps
Worn By u. S. Sol
diers in France

The following stateme1 Z 8 auttoriZ-
ed by the war department:
A special cap, Officially lowa as
the over seas cap" is now being worn
by the soldiers Of the American Expe-
dictionary Forces. The cap not only
is more practical than the regulation
campaign hat worn by the soldiers in
ills country, but adds 20 the eety
of the men while in the trenches.
The new cap matches the un.foi n in
color is round, and- fias no rim or
peak. The crown is very low ana made
so that when II In use ii can be eold-
ed and carried N the pocket
Hat Trims in the Way.
When the Americas entered the
trenches it was found that he brim Of
their campaign hats interfered with
sighting through the trench periscoDes
and that the high crown, in he case
tall men uould be seen allow the
parapets. The new cap is SO low that
it permits tn men to move it'll the
same freedom as when thew re hat
less. Another advantage elaine for
the over seas cap is that tho ench
helmet can be placed on top Of fl with
security.

LoUe YOU

Wouldn't you hate to be a Stacker
And with the slackers stand
With brand upon your forehead
And exemption in your hand;
Wouldn't you hate to face your mother
And your sister and your dad
And tell them where you'd been,
And show them what you had?
wouldn't you hate to see the look
On your pretty sweetheart's face
When she found her noble hero
Was a Stacker in the race.
Wouldn't you hate to see Ler take
Your ring from off her finger
And hand it back TO you and say:
That's ALL you needn't linger.
Wouldn't you hate to see that sweater
coat
So proudly made for you adorning
handsome
Billie Brown or gallant Private Drew?
Wouldn't you hate to hear your neigh

Your old schoolmates and your chums
say ha, ha,
There he goes, instead OF HgTrah!
Here he comes!
Then wake up lad and be a man.

Her Boy Across the Sea
BY Manford j. Hoiley.
Base Hospital,

When the busy day IS over.
And the twilight shadows fall.
when the bee has left the clover;
And the dusk broods over all.
When the lights are softly burning,
And the busy hands are free
Then the mothers heart is yearning
For her boy across the sea.
Silently her burden bearing,
Hiding all her grief away.
Patiently for others caring.
Comforting as best she may.
Hut when shades OF night are falling
Tasks are done and thought is free,
Then the mothers heart is calling.
For her boy across the sea.
Never word of hers shall fetter
Though the bitter tear drops fall
In her heart she loves him better
That he heard his country's call,
And she glories in his manhood
In his loyalty ard pride.
That he holds his countries honor,
Dearer than all els1 beside
Hope and fear and love are throneing
As she pleads on Bonded knee,
While the mothers heart is longing
For her bog across the sea

A GLORIOUS RECORD

Probably the prize knitter of the
North American continent is little
old lady Of Goderich, Ontario. She is
SO years old and totally blind. From
February 1, 1915, to June 30, 1913 she
knitted 72O pairs of socks for Canad-
ian soldiers.
This patriotic old woman lost her
sight only four years ago. Judging
by the record of her achievement In
the knitting line since that time, she
wasted no days in repining or despair.
We do not know whether she had
been knitting before she lost her
sight, but her record shows that she
has never been idle since. There are
many record months. Last April she
complied rs pairs OF socks. There
were II pairs in May and 20 pairs in
June. Her proud neighbors report
that she is still knitting ahead as
busily as ever.
No one has to assist this woman al
any stage of the knitting. She turns
heels as perfectly and as readily as
many younger woman with two
good eyes.
Let no person say carelessly well
what of It? Probably she cant dc
much OF anything else" There are
too many people in the world today
who are not doing the one job they
can do best Of all as thoroughly OF
as cheerfully as they might The op
portunity to help win the war is linn
tied by the will to serve, not by the
physical condition or position In life
The little, old woman sets a good ex
ample.
