The Soldier Vote.

To what extent will the soldier
vote" control the nation in years
to come, is topic of conversation
in the halls of Congress and about
Washington. Will the soldier vote
Tight sqy of both the Democratic
/ and Republican parties and set UP
policy all its own2 1t is claimed
that the ground work for such a
policy is taking form throughout
the country in the organization OF
different local posts and associa-
tions and with the idea of holding
aloof from both political parties.
But on the other hand the Repub-
licans and Democrats, with an eye
to the future, are not unmindful OF
the opportunity to bring about an
organization something along the
line of the Grand Army of the Re-
public, largelNfor election purposes.
Scouts from both parties are look
ing around, realizing that there is
soon to be built up in the United
States one of the most powerful
voting machines ever formed and
which will play an important part
in shaping government affairs for
years to come. AS an example of
what such an organization might
be able to do in a political way, it
is pointed out that the Grand Army
of the Republic virtually dominated
the country politically for fifty years
after the Civil War.

A Seaside Sensation.

She labored all winter preparing
A suit for saltwater swim,
Twas very expensive and daring,
Revealing lot of-er-limb /!
1t had wee jacket so cunning,
A bonnet beruffied and pert,
With stockings embroidered and
stunning,
And hardly a hint Of a skirt.
Completed at last, with elation,
She joyfully into it-siid,
Believing 'twould make sensation,
And, geminy thunder, it did
The feminine Kissed at her: 'Hus-
sy!"
The masculine gazed with delight;
While women with husbands grew
fussy
And tore them away from the
sight.
A helmeted officer naughty,
Determined lesson to teach,
Declared that her costume was
naughty,
And hustled her off OF the beach.
