The Host Invisible

(Elizabet Powers Merrill)
The valiant men that give their lives
Shall never taste Of death
They simply drop their CARDS of flesh
To draw fuller breath.
Tnhampered by their flesh and bone
They see with clearer eyes
To them the Right is what makes Might
On earth or in the skies.
The men that have the JOY to give
Their lives for others sake
Have found a life no man can kill
A hope no sword can break.
Freed from the manacles of Sense
The rise into the truth:
Though slain We're they million times
They keep eternal youth
Though forms fall on the battlefield
The Men are still alive
Cndaunted they behold the world
Behold earth's sons that strive.
FROM lofty watch towers Of the sky
Beyond each sun and star
They hear earth's trumpets rise and fall,
They see the fight afar.
Look up. France and America,
Behold this shining host,
With banners fair they light the air
Led by a cleaning Cross,
And when the Last Great Battle comes
The heavens themselves will shake
AS Gods hattalions downward sweep
To fight for Mankind's sake,

Clermont was yesterday afternoon
visited by a severe fire in which the
structure known as the "Rymal
House" was totally destroyed.
It is not definitely known what was
the origin of the fire, but it is\ the
ccncensus of opinions that a care
lessly thrown cigarette is responsible
for the loss.
There were but two people in the
house when the fire was discovered
and these barely escaped, an elderly
man, whose name could not be OBJ
tained, jumped from a third story
window, beyond being severely
bruised It is not thought serious in
jury will result.
The house was used by the Hotel
Highland, to care for its overflow Of

tpied, though fortunately the occu-
pants were absent when the fire took

WHO has recently returned, informs
the Associated Press that the Ger
mans are making every effort to con-
ceal their submarine losses, especial
" from the navy, because Of in

the time that he was at Kiel.

FUEL ORDER SENT
SHIPS ACROSS SEA
Four Hundred and Eighty Vessels
Were Bunkered and Sailed With
2,OOO,OO0 Tons OF Supplies

New York Feb. 21.--Some hitherto
unannounced details of the causes and
results of the five-day industrial sus-
pension and heatless Monday order
were disclosed in an address here
Saturday night by Fuel Administra-
tor Garfield.
AS a result of the closing order, DR..
Garfield said, 480 ships, carrying
more than 100000 tons of fuel and
munitions and other war supplies
which had been tied up in Atlantic
ports, were bunkered and sent to sea
from Jan. II, the day the order be-
came effective, to Jan. 20. A normal
number of ships only remained at
anchor, he declared, and the flow OF
supplies necessary to the American
expeditionary forces and the allies
had been re-established.
In addition, the fuel administrator
continued, the rails were cleared for
important shipments of steel and 9th
er commodities to factories, without
which, the most essential war indus
tries inevitably would have been
closed, "but not in an orderly fash
ion."
