LOOKING BACKWARD
By WILLIAM r. SHIELDS

I love to think of days In camp. when
early In the morn
l family heard-and deeply cursed-the
bugler's raucous horn:
sit and dream of training days when
would hike and drill.
And learn a thousand fancy ways the
subtle boche to kill;
And often from the field I'd trudge with
sweat upon my brow:
l love to lie in bed and think. l needn't
do 1t now.
I love to think Of days-and nights-when
in the snow and rain
I stood on guard and froze my feet and
almost went insane;
I love to think of slushy days when on
my sturdy back
I'd tote through Frances sticky mud Q
hefty army pack;
And oft at night ia hunt a berth in
some chilly NOW;
I love to lie in bed and think, 1 needn't
do 1t now.
All. we'll: 1.-THE moving finger writes. and
having writ, moves on"

| The time has passed when 1 was wont
to stick the husky Hun;
| I'm fust a drab civilian, bo-I miss tn,
| old-time fun;
| But still don't feel very blue: kiss m,
| loving frau.
And lie in bed. and thank my stars In
