W. R. {. OF NORTH DAKOTA
FEARS OTHER ALLIANCES
& By: United Press. }

Farso, ~ D., Sept. 11.--That the
constitution of the National Relief
Corps will be broadened to bring
within the scope of it's relief work
"all soldiers" was the prediction of
North Dakota delegates before leav-
ing for the national meeting opening
today in Columbus, Ohio. There has
been some agitation among various
departments to seek to become an
auxiliary to the American Legion,
but some North Dakota w. R. c..
workers believe that this is a mis-
taken movement, the promoters Of
which do not realize the real aim of
the Relief Corps. They predict that
the w. R. c., will continue to work
in harmony with, not strive to re-
place, the War Mothers.
About fifty Grand Army men and
Relief Corps women from North Da-
ko ia are at the convention.

THE FIRST STEPS

Last night ! held my arms to you
And you held yours to mine
( And started cut to march to mel
As any soldier fine
You lifted up your little feet
And laughingly advanced;
And / stood there and gazed upon
Your first wee steps, entranced.
You gooed and gurgled as you came
Without sign Of fear;
/ As though you knew your journey Ger,
I'd greet you with a cheer.
And what is more, you seemed to know,
Although you are SO small,
That / was there with eager arms
To save you from a fall
Three tiny steps you took, and then,
Disaster and dismay,
Your over-conidence had led
Your little feet astray.
You did not see what we could see,
Nor fear what US alarms;
You stumbled, but ere you could fall
I caught you in my arms.
You little tyke, in days to come
You'll bravely walk alone,
And you may have to wander paths
Where dangers lurk unknown.
And, Oh, pray than then, as now,
When accidents befall,
You'll still remember that I'm near
To save you from a fall.
Edgar A. Guest,
