proved Feb. "a, 1919, authorizes the
payment of bonus of $50 to officers
soldiers, field clerks and nurses OF
the army upon honorable separation
from active service by discharge, res
lgnation, or otherwise This bonus
is not payable to the heirs or repre-
sentatives of any deceased soldier.

ter will receive this bonus on the same

so swiftly saddened
Dreaming of home; the old familiar
faces,
Forms that / love, I see them gath
cred there;
Round the old hearth in their ac-
customed places,
Eyes dimmed by tears look on my
vacant chair.
Dreaming of home, my pilgrimage
here ended.
Forms that love await my COM
ing there.
Round Gods great throne me thinks
I hear them singing
Glad songs of welcome to that city
fair.
Dreaming of home; Oh, rouse me
not from slumber;
Fold now my hands above my quiet
breast;
Sing to me some dear song Of home
and mother,
Let me pass dreaming to the home
land of the blest.

Where Did They Go?
Farm, Stock and Home.


The good old days of the past
where have they gone? That red tip
pet, the copper-toed boots, and that
muskrat cap?
Where are the Elkanahs, Elams,
Elishas, Eliezers, Ephraims, Ellis and
Elijahs? Where are the Jerushas,
Hephzibas, Tabithas, Mehetabels and
Patiences?
What has become of the husking
bee with all its frolic and fun? And
the romance Of the red ear-where is
it?
Where are the wooden-shod OK
pungs and double-dashed sleighs
Where are the little smoke-houses
around which the blue smoke hover
ed cold winter mornings? And the
spring houses-where are they all?
Shall l. tell you? They have gone
down the back road of Time.
