BY Way Of Apology.
I'm coming back to you my dear,
In my uniform of blue,
The indigo to indicate the present
Mental hue.
I'm little of a hero dear,
My chest is woeful bare,
Of war lilies, decorations and
Medals Milletiare,
And yet feeble alibi
The fates for me designed,
| was going to the front
The night the armistice was signed.
l know that womankind delight
To have their man folks come,
AS conquerors with waving flags
With clarion and drum,
But | am sneaking home my dear,
Seems all that martial dim,
No frenzied groupe of neighbors,
Will hail me limping in,
And yet a bit solace, in
Brighter moments find,
For l was going to the Front,
The night the armistice was signed
The fact l went to battle dear,
Is not dramatic nor of interest
To civilians who dote on wounds anc
| gore,
And so I'm sinking back to you
With humbled chastened mien,
So kindly make arrangements
That my entrance won't be seen
It's hard, but you at least can tell
the folks l left behind,
I was going to the Front
The night the armistice was signed
By Lieut. John Pierre Rookie
ION the Marne."

Protecting Investors.

A great TODD is being made in the
press against gold-brick promoters
who are separating the farmers and
others from their Liberty bonds and
cash for bonds and stocks of doubtful
value. The warnings are good so far
- they so, but they leave out some
Very significant facts. One of these
i that ~ financial interests have
AGENTS who are quietly buying up
Liberty bonds ut the low market
quotations, SO quietly as to prevent a
rise in price. This little fact may go
long way toward explaining why
here is So much concern for the small
INVESTOR Just now. The exchange of
.,re:ty bonds in any considerable
amount for other paper would tend to
Increase their market price.
Another important fact is that the
mall investor has just as much to
ear from respectable Wall street ven
nres in the realm Of stocks and bonds
) from the wild cats. because they are
0 "resnc able" and plausible safe.
'he regular Wa street game is to get
he ual in, cstors biting we'll
thrcIz ~ 1t IT,, 'ountry until vast is
sue OF Dor IS I'd stocks are in their
han at hl.;h ices. Then the mar
ket aUI>. ...y b?"aks. The little fell
low can not hold on. The big fellows
buy back what they have sold at half
price or less. Then begins the game
! If ",'nc' )ring cOntidence,' which in
r ever day II IGUu"e means getting the
sue h,l~ . AGAIN. The market is
nov IA - t.krrbiting stage.
Our advice would be to leave both
Wall street ond The wild cats alone. If
the plain ci|!Z'.u can not find room to
invest his surplus on his own farm or
'usiness, let him look to government
,Onds or federal farm loan bonds and
% investments in his own community
which he can watch, or to cooperative
undertakings where he has some
thing to say in the management. The
possible returns from these may be
small compared with the promises OF
what stock promoters outside may Of
:er, but this must be considered to-
gether with the relative safety of the
principal. In the outside affairs the
safety Of the principal as we'll as the
return depends on men or interests tC
whom real integrity towards the gen
cr~ 'or"blic is a financial blunder The

NEED AS GREAT AS
WAS BELClUM'S
But Must Be Met Entirely by Vol
untary Subscriptions. Next
Week The Time.

The American Committee for relief
in the Near East, best known under
the title of it's formerly more limited
service, the American Committee for
Armenian and Syrian Relief, will ap-
peal to the citizens of the United
States through the week Of January
1919 for support of it's effort to re-
lieve suffering of 100000 souls made
destitute by Hun cruelties throughout
the World War. While formerly the
relief work was carried on primarily
for the starving inhabitants of Syria
and Armenia, it now includes the des-
titute in Mesopotania, Arabia, Persia,
and in remote districts in the Turkish
Empire.
The nationwide campaign is for a
fund of $30,000,000. Alexander j.
Hemphill, who has accepted the ma
tional craftsmanship, says the relief
work in the Near East is equally i'm
pOrtant with the relief work in Bel
GUM. The allied governments have
sent food to Belgium, but the relief
of the ragged and starving men,
women and children of the Near East
is dependent entirely upon voluntary
subscription.
America has responded to every
appeal from suffering humanity
throughout the war;" said William B.
Millar, director general of the drive.
The United War Work Campaign was
one of the most magnificent achieve
ments in the whole world history
of giving, but the distress of the
world is so great that we cannot stop
giving now. Although the war is over,
we still have many sacrifices to make,
and the American people should give
to those who have paid the greatest
price in suffering and privation and
give in Thanksgiving that the Hun
toll of American hearts blood was
no greater.
