Today, in the midst Of war and strife,
A star shines forth, bright and clear
That is dearer than Sweetheart,
Friend or Wife,
'Tis the face Of your Mother dear.
Men bend the knee and bow the head,
Think of her, whose eyes may be
dim;
For she has given her all, we know,
To free an oppressed world from
sin.
Pay tribute to the mother who lives
today,
To the one who may sleep meath

For her star on the service flag to the
world,
Is love divin e,and of God.

roam over the world.
Poor Princess Tana could not believe
Merck had forsakcn her, for though he
had never told her he loved her, her heart
told her that he did
Then the King and Queen sent for
princes from far and near, for IT was
time for the Princess To we'd, but To none
of them would she even give smile.
II shall never marry, Princess Tana
told the King and Queen II will not
marry man do not love
Day ny day Princess Tana grew paler
and when at last the King and Queen
became alarmed the Queen told her
husband she feared they had sent Merck
away when 1t was too late.
I'VE must find him II we wish To save
her life: | am sure of that, said the
Queen But this was easier said than
done, for nowhere could Merick be found
though the hing sent ont messengers, all
over the country to look for him
And whevc was MERCK all this time,
you ask
When the Queen discovered that the
Princess was IN love with Merck the
King sent for him and told him tho prn-
cess was Ia be married and that she had
taken dislike 10 some of the servants
and he was ono oi them
We do not wish anything to mar The
happiness Of Princess Tana, said the
King, "so we give To each servant hag
