THE DAY OF THE DEAD.
(By Nincttc VI. LOwater.)

When the DAYS grow long and the grasses siisten
Inlpearled with the night has shed.
When birds all sing and the trees all listen,
There comes the Day of the Dead.
Dearer far than than golden treasure
Is their dust, whose memory Honor keeps
And the Nation leaves its toll and its pleasure
To garland each bed where hero sleeps
have grown old; they young forever,
With glcry's halo around each head
our names will die but forgotten never
those the roll of the Nations dead
Past are the pain and the bitter aching
our sacred dead their coUntry's
And the hearts that throhbed well nigh TO breaking
Calmly above their ashes bow.
Peace to them-peaCe forever and ever,
shall rude alarm intrude
The Earring world shall disturb them never.
They know Of wars interlude.
Bring their graves thought OF sorrow.
Why should mourn Ger cOuntrys deadP
Their shall bright thru morrow
And shine like the stars when the day has fled.
Bring laurel and pine for their memory immortal.
And roses red roses 10 emblem the love
Which follows them. through the dark portal.
And pansies. for thought Of their welcome above.
Bring white-for their purpose holy.
And mid me sweet flowers there at its

Whether his rank high lowly,
Set the Banner of Stars, for which each died.

This is apparently ada ptaton of the European
idea. In many foreign countries the houses are
clustered in groups instead of being scattered like
American farm houses Thus they make small

OLDIERS AS FOREIGN statesmen

The suggestion is made that the business of COM

countries should appeal the soldiers who do not
wish 10 resume their pre-war jobs at home.

OF becoming acquainted. OF mingling with strange
people and gaining quickly familiarity with their
speech and customs. He is no longer the ineXperi-

has learned what sympathy and comradeship mean
as well, and this would be OF great benefit in win
