The following was enclosed in a
letter from Richland County soldier
now in the trenches in France.
Wanted in France
WANTED, able bodied men
For the battle front in France,
Where the flower of Pershing's troops
On the Prussian hordes advance.
Shame upon you all who loll
Safely in an easy chair
While our heroes bleed and die
By the thousands over there.
Do not wait till you are called,
Do not wear the slacker's brand;
You are needed now in France
With a rifle, understand.
German science, led by greed,
Seeks to dominate the world;
Get uniform and go
Where the flags are all unfurled.
This is what the bugles say:
Come and help defeat the Hun.
Every man is wanted who
Has the strength to bear gun"
Dapper clerk and lanquid beau,
Loafer living by your wits,
There's the door to victory
Where the stern Tipped sergeant sits.
