buy IN TRIBUTE
BOYS Who died
Lieutenant Brooks Pleads for Sub.
seriptiOns in Memory of Pals
Who Gave Lives.

"Tf you fail to meet your share
in the Victory loan drive, my pals
" no died for you will turn over in
their graves in France; but if my
pals knew every city was going
over the top they would smile. My
plea to you is, keep them smiling"
In these words Lieutenant Wal
yand c. Brooks, marine, appealed
to a capacity house in the Second
Congregational church last even
ing, to lend all the money they can
possibly spare to the loan fund.
The gathering was the last Victory
loan meeting before the opening of
the drive. Today. tomorrow and
Saturday are to be volunteer days
in Moline and the committee in
charge hopes to nave the city's
quota subscribed to by SATURDAY
night, so that it will not be neces-
sary to send out teams to canvass
EeXt week
ANY country" said Lieutenant
Brooks, that is worth fighting and
dying for is surely worth support
ing and living for That is the
problem we have to face today. 1t
was not herds of the Hun that made
the American soldier plunge on. 1t
v as his love of you, his own Amer
lean people, that kept him pushing
ahead.
They thought you were 100 per
cent American. l am afraid some
of these boys who left a leg in
France will, in year or two, think
il wasn't worth while. Our cas-
ualty list was heavy, but we held.
We have no right to claim the cost
CO victory. 1t was paid for by the
boys who lie buried in the little
graves in France.
THE war isn't over for the boys
in France. There is nothing more
painful than the hardships which
the boys now overseas have to en-
dure. There is a bit of romance
in war while the fighting is going
OH. But it's all drudgery now.

not bring warm food or bring them

Seventh street. Moline, telling OF
meeting the latter's son, Pat Kirk

Pat Kirkhove to his mother. Mrs.
Booths letter follows:
Being a mother myself ! know
how much it means to a mother to
have news of her boy from one who
has seen him. l met your dear sol
der boy the other night at a little
town on the banks of the Rhine and
1 can report that he is well and
happy. The enclosed little note
from him was from the mothers
book. 1 have a big book in which
any boy in France or Germany can
write home a little note to his
mother. That brings me into a
closer personal touch with the boys
after my talks and it also gives me
the mothers address and 1 do so
want to bring a little message of
cheer and comfort to those dear,
brave mothers back home
Conditions are good over here.
The United States authorities and
the Y. NJ. C. A. are doing all in their
power for the army of occupation.
They are leading a healthy, out-of-
door life and they certainly look
we'll. They have many entertain
mcnts, out-of-door sports and the
companionship of good American
men and women.
81 am over here giving the boys
an entertainment every night in a
different town. NY part of it is a
message from home and I try to
talk to them as their own dear
mothers would were they here
They call me the Little Mother of
tie A. F. F. in that part of the
great field where have worked and
you may have heard of me as the
little mother of the prisons of
America.
81 have very vivid memories of
nIy visits to the Moline chautauqua
and also of my talks there on a
very cold Sunday last year
These dear boys of the A f. F.
are splendid fellows the women of
America may well be proud of. |
can see everywhere the deep infiu-
ence of the Christian homes and
blessed mothers who are back of
them.
II wish for you a happy and
speedy reunion with your dear SOL
der boy, believe me.
VERY truly yours,
MAUD B. BOOTH"
The note from the Moline boy
reads as follows:
Dearest Mother: Mrs. Booth,
who spoke to US tonight, is so much
like you in word and manner, that
though you are thousands of miles
away. I have been with you tonight.
Your loving son, PAT
