Worth Brothers manufactured

Don't LET the HOmefOlks Forget"
BY COOK ROBERT E. DAWSON,
with the A. Z. F.

In olive drab we marched to aid the
Allies,
In answer TO the call Of Uncle Sam,
Leaving family, home, and sweethearts
For the trenches Of this French line.
Il was at first all excitement,
We were thrilled with soldiers life
And wrote often 10 the folks at home,
And 10 our sweethearts willing 10 be
our wives.
Each week we waited for a letter.
There seemed TO be lots for the rest;
Each time we turned away empty
handed,
With a sigh and a heavy-laden chest.
oh, why do the home-folks forget US
When there should be lots to care;
For we sacrificed all TO conquer,
These bloodthirsty Hohsnzollern heirs.
Like an oasis far out in No Mans Land.
With my comrads in the thousands by
my side,
Wadlng through shrapnel, bombs and
bullets,
Until our souls within US nearly died.
Above all we will continue our ad-
vancing,
Though the cost may be very dear;
And with just a few words from our
loved ones,
Would make US continue forever with
out fear.
Please, Don't let the homefolks forget
US"
And before we end our mission we
must hear,
That the Huns have surrendered uncon-
ditionally,
AS well as from our homefolks so dear.
