lied the mistake and now is deply
regretting the premature loss of the
college trained man. The United
States is profiting by that lesson and
is now developing through the col

though it may be for only three
months. Prepare yourself, to the
full extent of your opportunity for

it will be advisable that you assure

Preparatory work for the big COM

less than two months, the fathers,
mothers, sisters, brothers and sweet
hearts of Michigan's soldier boys will
be able to 60 to Custer to visit the
selected men under comfortable cir

been at Custer no accommodations

be a place where the boys can meet

latter can secure accommodation
there at a nominal price. both rooms
and meals. Mothers and fathers will
be able to say good bye in the seclu-
sion of their own rooms-today these
sacred, and perhaps last farewells,
must be said in public. :
The club house will be for enlisted
men and officers alike--there will be
no distinction. 1t is the wish of the
army heads that these club houses be
democratic. The humblest private
will have every privilege accorded a
major general; they VIII meet ana

ments will be given every night for
boys-a big auditorium being pro-
vided. Writing rooms, reading
rooms, lounging rooms and all other
benefits of club life will be afforded.
The dormitories. will be built as wings
on two sides of the club house, and
will have accommodations for 300 per-
sons.
The committee appointed by Gov
Sleeper to supervise the construction
and expenditures, promises a build
ing that cannot be duplicated for the
same cost by any private enterprise.
1t has already made contracts for
material with a number of concerns
at cost prices, gaining this advantage
by appealing to the patriotism of the
dealers. 1t hopes to secure every
bit of material for building and fur
nishings on similar favorable terms.

One could not help but remark
about the many automobiles which
were parked along Main and the
side streets, Saturday evening. The
reporter for the Banner-News went
up and down Main street and noted
that very nearly every available
foot of space was taken for the
parking of cars for a distance of
nearly two blocks on Main street and
that many other automobiles were
parked on side streets. From
"'osses to h'autos", as the English
would tell us, seems to be the rule

THE TRULY UNSELFiSH MOTH
ER'S ANSWER

By DR.. James l.. Hughes
God gave my son in trust TO me.
Christ died for him. and he should be
A man for Christ He is his own.
And Gods and mans; not mine alone.
He was not mine to give" lie gave
Himself that he might help to save
All that a Christian should revere.
All that enlightened men hold dear.
To feed the guns" oh, torpid SOUL
Awake and see life as whole.
When freedom. honor, justice. right
Were threatened by the despots
might
With heart aflame and soul alight,
He bravely went for God to fight
Against base savages whose pride
The laws of God and man defiied;
Who slew the mother and her child;
Who maidens pure and sweet deflled;
He did not go ito feed the guns"
He went to save from ruthless Huns
His home and country, and to be
A guardian of democracy.
what If he does not Gomez" you say,
All, WE'LL My sky would be more gray
But through the clouds the sun would
shine,
And vital memories be mine.
Gods test of manhood is. l know.
Not will he Gomez" but did he go 20
My son well knew that he might die
And yet he went, with purpose high
! To fight for peace, and overthrow
The plans of Christ's relentless foe
He dreaded not the battlefield;
He went to make fierce vandals yield
II he comes not again to me
| shall be sad; but not that he
Went like mana hero true
His part unselfshly to do.
My heart will feel exultant pride
That for humanity he died.
Forgotten gravel" This selfish plea
Awakes no deep response in me.

For though his grave | may not see.
NV boy will ne'er forgotten be.
NV real son can never die;
IT'S but his body that may lie
In foreign land. and | shall keep
Remembrance fond forever, deep
Within my heart OF my true son,
Because of triumphs that he won.
II matters not where anyone
Nav lie and sleep when work is done.
II matters not where some men live.
If my dear son his life must give.
Hosannas will sing for him.
Fen though my eyes with tears be
dim.
And when the war is over. when
His gallant comrades come again,
I'll cheer them as they're marching by
Rejoicing that they did not die.
And when his vacant place | see.
My heart will bound with JOY that he
Was mine so long-my fair young
son
And cheer for him whose work Is
done.

fact that his own son was killed In
