By Charles Divine.

These fields shall never be forgot,
Where wheat Was ripe, and gathered not,
And men went down among the grain
And left lasting crimson stain.
The rifles waved above the wheat,
The golden wheat. the shining wheat;
The bayonets were III the ground
To mark where fallen men were found.
The rifles trembled III the breeze
That swayed the stalks like summer seas,
The waist high wheat, the waving wheat,
Tie mud stained rifle butts IN beat.
And on-beyond these fields Of gold
Moved living rifles, bot and bold,
To write across this sacred spot:
These fields shall Hcrcr be forgot.

A Soldier Poet in France
and Company Streets
The Old Sixty-ninth
By Charles Divine.


SO you ire back from the front. have You any news
OF the old Sixty ninth of New York,
We called them the fighting Sixty NINTH
And some FROM County Cork.
I was with them, lad when they c-irne across
Don't worry, tradition held true.
For-they fought four sectors along the trout
They were fighting men They were Irish too.
At Rouge Bouquet. where their first men fell,
At Rouge Bouquet, where their poet sang
Champagne, where the foe made their last blS drive
And the Irish climbed TO the parapet.
Chanpagnc where The cry Of "Chlos, Chaous
By The fighting Sixty ninth met,
Flat on their bellies and PLAYING their guns
On the horIcd MASSES of shouting Huns;
And the Irish fought on TIE parapct,
And the foe went back, and they're back there Vet!
At the River Ourcq, where the recall blew
When the big guns couldn't keep up the pace
Al the River Ourcq, yes the 'recall' blew,
But the doughboys went in the enenys face
On to the farm, where for days they fought,
Climbing the hill and It's blood stained side,
At the Meurcy Ferme where their poet fell,
Living his song IN the death he died.
In ST. Mihcl, with the foe in rout,
And the Irish dincd on their saucrkrau,;
And then at Verciun. for heroic weeks,
Pushing them bach over valleys and creeks.
If thew ask in New York for tlIe regiment.
You can say there fighting wherever they went.
Though they won't come back, not all the same.
For they lost a lot, yet they left fame.
So, don't worry, lad, tradition held true:
They were splendid men. They were 1rish too.

wants and shepherds were called
up from the army to assist in the
work of instruction.
After a thorough training in Eng
land, the dogs were sent to France
and on the battlefields their skill,
courage and tsnacity amazed the
army. Often wounded in the per-
Torrance of their duties, they new
er faltered while strength remained
to carry on The official record
of their heroic work tells of sue
cessful message carrying through
darkness, mist, rain and shell-fire
over the most difficult ground. In
a few minutes time dogs have
brought messages over ground that
would take a soldier runner hours
to cross.
During the great German advance
last spring part of the British line
in front of a famous French town
was cut by severe enemy barrage.
A messenger dog was released with
an urgent appeal for reinforce
ments. 1t ran two miles in ten
minutes. The result was that a
French colonial division was sent
up and prevented a disaster. The
messenger was Highland sheep
dog.

Yankees Tell What They Think of
Engiand's Greatest Metropolis
Before Sailing.

London.-(Correspondence of the
Associated Press Some Of the
$4,000 American sailors, who Wis
tied London before leaving for
home told the British journalists
what they thought of the metropolis.
Il like your town all right" one
IS quoted as saying. 'but you
bavnt enough restaurants. Even
IN a small American town every
street has got 'em in punches of
i've" Other comments were:
''Your transportation about town
isn't up to standard, but I suppose
that's the war"
"LOndon's more like an American
city than Edinburgh, and the peO-
pie are all right. You are not SO
modern, though, as we are 1 see
your girls have got their hair bob
bed-why, our girls had that done
ten years agoi
"The people are real friendly. We
like your burg, but your climate is
rotten"
''The big difference between Eng
land and the states is your ladies.
You can speak to lady here, high
or low, without getting into trou-
bic. If you spoke to a lady in AM
erica, you'd be arrested. There's
something where you are more
democratic than we are"
The British interviewer said he
hoped that American boys wouldn't
take home any wrong ideas about
English girls based on some of
those encountered in the Strand
and in PiccadiIly Circus.
snake no mistake about that"
the sailor treasured him. I'VE
know all about it. We've got to
know fine girls here, and high
toned ones, too, and we don't want
the other sort"
He said the boys with the Ameri-
can battleship suadron in the Firth
of Forth got on well with the Eng
lish sailors of the grand fleet. 1--WE
gave them vaudeville show" he
related, and they gave us a con-
cert"
This sailor" the interviewer re-
marked in his article, gave me
some sound information on a point
about which 1 had always been
curious. 1 asked him if one Am
erican could tell at once what part
of American another one came
from. He said, Sure Take a man
from the south. He speaks Slow
with draWl - 'Air-you-goin'-
down-town-toe - see = like
that, like bunch of farmers ak
ing. A man from Chicago talks like
a man from New York, quick and
sharp like, with lot of profanity"
But could you tell the differ
ence between a Chicago man and
a New York man?'
"'Sure. A Chicago man uses
more profanity, and he moves his
hand like this-see-as If he was
doing a card trick A New York
mans quick and soft
What about the middle vest
"'Oh, a Kansas man doesn't
speak slow like a southerner, or

VALUES,

aSheboygan county, Wisconsin,
farmers received much benefit in
1918 from community tile drainage
project conducted by the farm bu-
reau and the county agent. Over
40 farms were visited, $4,000 feet
of levels were run, and 10000 feet
of tile was laid, which reclaimed
rs acres of land. It is estimated
that as result Of the land drain
age the value of farm lands in the
vicinity has increased $4,000. The
project will be continued in 1919,
and it is planned to reclaim 800
acres of land.

Another dog with a message ran
nearly four miles in 20 minutes,
and still another in the same time
carried back from the front a map
of an important captured position,
when a man would have taken an
hour and q half to bring it in.
The dogs which have been found
most successful in war work are
collies, sheep dogs, lurchers and
airdales, and crosses of these vari-
cites, while in a number of cases
Welsh and Irish terriers have given
excellent results.
The work of sentry dogs has been
valuable, especially in the Balkans.
One gave warning of an enemy
scout 300 yards away. On many
occasions dogs have given warning
of enemy patrols long before the
soldier sentries were aware of their
presence.
Large numbers of dogs have
been used for guard duty, many on
the italian front.

RULES EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL
WORK

In the readjustments Incident to
the change of industries from a
war to a peace basis, the principle
Of equal pay for equal work, en-
forced by the department of labor
wherever it had power to dictate,
will have a widespread influence,
according to economists In his re-
port, just issued, the secretary out
lines the policy pursued by the war
labor board as follows:
1.-THE rights of women in indus
try have been rigidly protected by
the war labor board with respect
to questions Of wages, health and
general welfare. In all cases where
women perform the same work as
men they shall, according to the
policy Of the war labor board, re-
ceive precisely the same rate of
pay, and in no case be allotted
tasks disproportionate to their
strength"

AS powerful America was moved
by the distress of raVaged Belgium,
so was Jack Randall, leading charac-
ter in whom the Gods Would De-
stroy' moved to love and protect a
pretty little Belgian girl he met just
before the war. This vivid photoplay,
which will be seen today and tomor-
row at the Lyric portrays one of
the prettiest International romances
ever conceived.
Taken into a foreign country by a
typical piece of Teutonic trickery,
Jack Randall escapes when he is re-
PEELED by the cruel arrogance of his
fellow university students. He goes to
Belgium to follow his studies in chem
istry. There he meets this girl, Just
budding into womanhood, surrounded
by the queer streets, the quaint dog
carts the picturesque characters of
an Old Belgian city. They fall in love.
The Menace begins its active machina-
tons and the young couple are its VIC

Julie, from the hands of a former
classmate of his in the university, how
they escape through the lines, and
how they are at last reunited and Wig
