CORPORAL c. W. GEORGE.


Bat. c. II F. A, A. z. F. A. OF o.
Here is the article I want THE TIMES
to publish:
WHAT THE BOYS THINK.
Much has been written in recent edi-
torials copcernins the valor of a GER
tain portion OF the American Army.
Glowing tributes have been paid IN all
the leading papers throughout the Unit
ed States. to the different National
Army and National Guard Divisions.
AS volunteer. I wish to state. that
IN all those various articles. not one
mention have I seen made or have 1
ever heard of a single pen turned to de-
pict the life of the men. that In our
estimation. have made victory possible
in so short a time for the American ma
ton.
For the above reasons. 7 would like
TO ask for the privilege Of a space in
your paper. to place before the Ameri-
can people the grievance Of the men
who answered their Presidents call, be-
fore the draft was ever ready for exc
cution. thereby perfecting and making
possible one OF the first fighting con-
tingents for overseas service.
Between April 9Th and the time that
expired before the draft was perfected
President Wilson IN behalf of the
American people issued a call for half
a million men. These men silently left
their respective positions, some very
lucrative to answer the appeal not as
the now would be footed" heroes left;
filled with pomp and glory. led by the
dignataries of the municipalities and
state. but silently and singly as all true
Americans should have done in order 10
say that they rightfully upheld their
County's Honor.
Do tho American people ever stop 70
consider what the feeling of the coun-
try would be at that time. If the appeal
OF our president fell entirely on silent
ears? Do they realize the credit due
the men. that made such thing i'm
possible, then in the name of Our
American Republic we demand what is
ours. a right namely justice.
Do the American people ever stop and
consider that the tide Of war was turn

18th of July. 1915. when they met and
defeated for all times. the pride OF the
German army. CThs Prussian Guards)
on the River Marine? 1 am also safe in
saving that the volunteer divisions have
left more dead on the various battle
fields in Europe. than any other divi-
sion in the American Ex. Forces.
Now. the question arises in the minds
of many: We have done our duty. to
our country. and we were told before
we left for foreign lands. that we
would not be forgotten. but the fact
remains that WE ARE FORGOTTEN.

on a separate floor have a large room TO
be rented TO lodges and for dances and
have a stage a one end for home talent
shows and have balconies This is
to help in the upkeep Of the building.
Then on the top floor have all rooms
furnished by lodges. stores or persons
as a memorial TO be rented 70 fellows
for dens. money TO go for the upkeep
OF the building.
I am as interested IN the building as
