Congressman Graham Home.

Congressman Graham has arriv-
ed home from his trip to the battle
front in France. In an interview
this morning he Stated that he had
been unsuccessful in his attempt to
see some OF the Mercer county men
now in the service in France He
visited the Toul sector, which is
where Battery b was located but
al the time they were in action at
the front. and Mr.. Graham could
not secure permission to go up
TO the front lines. The division in
which Battery B is a part had cross
ed the Mouse river and was fighting
east of that river at that time.
However. the congressman sue
ceeded in sending some messages
to the boys of Battery B by cOur-
Ter on j motorcycle. IF he could
have stayed until the battery had
a rest period he could have seen
them, but time would not permit
that. While over there he visited
many other points and was at
Cambria and Lens. only a few
hours after the battles which took
place there. He visited the Hin
denburg line at several places and
gained much valuable information
concerning the war and its needs.
Mr.. Graham expects to remain at
home until about Nov y, and if the
ban on public meetings is raised by
that time. will deliver an address,
telling the people of this commun-
ity about his trip to France. and
what he saw. He says that among

BUY A LIBERTY BONDI
BY JAMES A. MONTAGUE.

For year you've seen them march
ing-down the street and out to
camp,
For year you've heard the echo of
their steady tramp, tramp tramp;
Husky lads with eager faces, ready
for the Job ahead,
Quick to go and sure to stay there
till the Job is put to bed,
When the trouble call was sounded
every one was on the spot,
Full million fit for battle-not a
Stacker in the lot.
Pretty soon they'll all be in it and
you know they're going through,
They have given ali that's in them
after this it's up to you
Up to you to stand behind them at
whatever sacrifice,
Though it takes your every dollar,
they-notyou- mustpay theprice,
They must go through flame and fury
to disprove that might is right,
Never let men say you failed them
while they fought and won your
fight.
Never fear that of that legion any
man will ever shirk,
They will stay where'er you send
them-you must keep their guns
at work,
You must mint your piles Of dollars
into shells to clear the way,
That behind their splendid banner
they are going to march some day.
Do not trouble for your future, stand
behind their line like men;
Time to talk of trade and profit when
they're safely home again.
Even now a hundred thousand hear
the rumble of the guns;
Even now they breast the current
where the tide of battle runs,
Pile munitions up behind them,
launch more ships and still more
ships,
To provide them fighting comrades
when at last they come to grips,
And when they come back victorious
from the fighting over there
You'll be just as proud as they will
that you, too, have done your
share
