WHEN THEY'D come home.
AND HOW nice We were.
I TO BE GOOD to the boys.
AND WE were glad.
AND EARLY this morning.
WE STARTED out
AND WENT into the woods.
WITH OUR little saw.
THAT WE found IN the house.
AND FOR six hours
WE WANDERED around.
AND IF the MoheganA
LEFT ANY logs.
AROUND THEIR lake
WHEN THE last of them left
WE COULDN'T find them.
AND WIEN We got back.
WE WE'RE all scratched up.
AND LOOKING Ike bIottsrs.
THAT sOAIEBODY,D used.
IN A trial balance.
AND WE hadn't a thing.
TO BUILD the raft.
AND WE went down swimming.
AND TRIED to explain.
TO THE waiting boys.
But IT didn't help much.
AND JUST tonight
WHEN THEY all went by.
HEARD one Of them say:
~THEsps THE men.
THAT PROMISED the raft.
AND NEVER fetched it,
AND THE moral is
DON'T PROMISE a raft.
UNTIL SHE'S noated.

MysteriOusIy Disappears.
On the evening Of January 0 he left
the offices OF the railway board for
Baltimore. There he had dinner with
a business associate from Syracuse.
In the morning he left the hotel car
rying a small black bag. He has not
been seen or heard OF since that time
by any member Of his family or any
friend. All his previous actions point
to the fact that he intended to remain
in Baltimore and Washington, and
that he expected a telephone call
from his son, ninstsen-year-old
freshman at Yale.
After his disapepATanos HIS son was
notified by officials in Washington
and made a hurried trip to this city.

No NameIeSs Grave
For Tuscauia Dead;
All Wore War Tags

The War Department today took
prompt measures to allay the
fears OF relatives OF Tuscania vic
Tins that their dead might rest in
q nameless grave by announcing
that all bodies recovered will
probably be Identified.
Following the finding Of forty
four bodies washed up on the
coast OF Ireland, it was reported
that they wore blank identlfica-
tion tags, and that because the
remains were unacceptable, the
bodies would all be buried in one
large grave.
II was stated today, however.
that blank tags are never issued
to American soldiers. The name
Is always stamped upon the tag.
even though the man has not been
assigned and numbered in any
particular unit 1t was declared
positively that every soldier
aboard the Tuscania had q tag
with his name on Il.

iContinued from First Page.)
The Star-spangIed Banner and we
all sang like hell"
Scores Of British naval and fishing
craft continued their search today for
bodies Of the victims. They were
aided by the coast patrol, which
searched the bays and inlets OF the
irish and Scottish shores in that
,icinity. Hope Of finding other sur
s'<ors has been practically absn-
6sRed.
The admiralty is making a careful
check OF the casualties and survivors,
cut so far has not deviated from the
1gures yesterdsy-210 probably lost.
nd 2,1ST rescued. The missing, &C
ording to the admiralty's figures, in
uded probably 145 American so,-
era Circumstantial stories told by
E'f4tish naval officers today indicated
mat at least one German submarine
probably was destroyed during the
attack.
Destroyer Attacked.
One OF the rescuing destroyers, it
vas reported, wirelessed:
Torpedo just missed me-" and gave
the direction from which II was fired.
Another destroyer, speeding to the
spot, dropped QepIh charge. Inc
U-boat is believed to have been sunk.
No further trace was found Of her. al
though destroyers searched In that vi.
cinity for a long time.
This account is corroborated by
other naval officers and passengers
from other ships.
Practically all accounts agree that
two torpedoes were fred az the Tus-
cania, one passing close under her
stern From the number OF torpedoes
fired, and the varying directions
from which they came, il would APP
pear there may have been a feet Of
submarines engaged in the attack.
The plan OF modifying a number OF
U-boats TO make a sinking certain
was instituted with the sinking OF
the LusitAnia. and has been followed
in q number Of instances when the
quarry was regarded az particularly
important
Tales OF the bravery of the soldiers
and sailors aboard the 1Niscania were
legion today. One OF the most vivid
concerns woman-an unnamed
stewardess OF the transport.
The Mfeboat In which she sat was
crowded when 1t pulled away from
