LIEUT.. AND MRS. SLEEPER'S
ACTIVITIES.

Gladys Pitcher, wife of Prof. James T.
Sleeper and only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
Elbridge S. Pitcher of Belfast, has very
successfully completed a years work al
beloit College, Wisconsin, where she sue
ceeded her husband as the head of the
department of music, when he enlisted in
the officers reserve corps at Fort Sheri-
dan. Mrs. Sleeper will remain at Beloit
for summer school and will spend the re-
mainder of the vacation with her parents
in Belfast. A Beloit exchange paper
gives the following interesting mention
of what Mrs. Sleeper has been doing out
side of her regular duties: She presided at
the inaugural of the Young Woman's
League at the High school mass meeting,
and very gracefully introduced the speak
er of the evening. Mrs. Sleeper acted as
master of ceremonies and directed the en-
tertainment of the war-workers' frolic at
the Y. M. c. A., when the young women
who do Red Cross work were guests of
their instructors. Mrs. Sleeper also
taught them the recreation Dances etc.
Of the college girls club concert the ex-
change says: Mrs. Sleeper of the college
music department has been the untiring
director of the club and deserves large
measure of credit for the splendid results
obtained.
Lieut.. Sleeper is now quartermaster in
the transfer service and in recent letter
from France says in personal note:
"There are lot of stories being circu-
lated in the manner such stories were
circulated concerning the morals OF the
camps in the United States. l hope you
will not believe any Of them. They are
part of the German propaganda At
present they are running stories affecting
the morals of our nurses. Every loyal
American should not believe nor even
listen to them. A good way to check up
on the morals of the army is to examine
the medical records. 1t is an absolute
fact that there is an immeasurably higher
grade of morality in the army than
among the civilians at home. That is
not saying that there is no immortality
here. There is lot of it. But the men
and women here are doing a great deal
better in that regard than the folks back
home who are criticising them. Another
thing that annoys the army is the propa-
ganda being spread in America against
smoking and drinking in the trenches.
If you hear anybody pushing that kind of
talk, Just tell them that the doctor would
have to give them something stronger
than tobacco and wine or rum If they
had to spend three weeks in the odor of
decaying human bodies. This smell is
terrible, and is nauseating for miles back
of the front. If anyone does not believe
this refer them to any undertaken, VIII o
works only in nice clean room on nice
fresh bodies with an electric fan to carry
the odor away. Anybody that starts
complaining about conditions in our army
in the above respects to me is liable to
meet with painful surprise"

LONDON, May 16. The entire German
Baltic fleet, except few light cruisers.
was recalled last week to Kiel, where i'm
portant naval forces now are being con-
ceDtrated, says despatch from Ham
burg received IN Geneva and transmitted
by the correspondent of the Daily Ex-
press.
If the Germans are able to break
through the Allied lines and reach the
North Sea the fleet will venture out and
a great sea fight will follow. On the
other hand if the Germans are defeated
on the western front it is among the
probabilities that their fleet will force a
naval battle as last desperate attempt
to win the war.

OBITUARY..
MRS. SUSAN DICKEY MAHONEY

| In the death of Mrs. Susan D. Mahoney,
May 18th, Belfast lost its Oldest resident
She was born in Northport, April 20,
1928, the daughter of the late John David
son and Betsey Eames Dickey. She was
direct descendant of James Dickey, who
came from Londonderry, N. H., and in
1896 settled on what has since been known
as Dickey's Bluff, Northport. She was
the; widow of the late John j. Mahoney.
She grew old gracefully and looked al
ways on the bright side of everything.
While never uniting with any church,
she was always consistent and de-
life, rarely mingling with the public, but
making friends always with those who
knew her real worth, particularly young
people. She is survived by three sons
and two daughters, A. A. of Vinalhaven,
George D. of Belfast, Fred P. of Con-
cord, N. H., Mrs. Geneva M. Mudgett and
Mrs. Carrie M. Clark. She had happy
home for about Is years with Mrs. Clark,
her younger daughter. One half-sister
survives, Mrs Harriet E. Banks of Bel
fast Two grandsons are in the u S.
service, Lieut.. Donald S. Clark with the
signal corps in France, and Henry M.
Mudgett in the medical corps now in
Georgia. The funeral took place at her
late home, Tuesday, at p. M, Rev.
Arthur E. Wilson of the Unitarian Church
officiating The many floral tributes
were beautiful and included remem-
brances from her boys in the service
The bearers were Messrs. John d.
Walker, Harry w. Clark, Maurice w.
Lord and Orrin j. Dickey. Mr.. Wilson
read the following most appropriate
poem, Our Home Maker, by A. D. T..
Whitney:
Where the mountain slopes to the west
ward,
And their purple chalices hold
The new made wine of the sunset
Crimson and amber and gold
In this old wide open doorway
The house all garnished behind her
And the plentiful table spread,
She has stood to welcome our coming
Watching our upward climb
In the sweet June weather that brought
Oh, many and many time!
Again is the doorway opened,
And ha bonSe 0orDiShad and cxuaof
But she silently waits for our coming
And we enter with silent feet
A little within she is waiting
Not where she met us before,
For over the pleasant Threshold
She is only to cross once more.
The smile on her face is quiet,
And a lily is on her breast,
Her hands are folded together
And the word on her lips is "rest."
And yet it looks like welcome
For her work is compasSed and done,
All things are seemly and ready
And her summer is Just begun.
1t is we who may not cross over,
Only with song and prayer
A little way into the glory,
We may reach as we leave her there.
But we cannot think of her idle,
She must be home maker still,
God giveth that work to the angels
Who fittest the task fulfill.
And somewhere yet in the hilltops,
Of the country that has no pain,
She will watch in her beautiful doorway
And bid US welcome again.
