THE FALL OF THE AIR CHILD

He was so young-the STRIPPING that we
lay
In this stern box-his mother, were she
here,
Would choose a white one; tie spray
of dear
White roses with ribbon white as they.
But wars for men, not children, and the
grim
Sad trappings of soldiers death are
dark;
Yet something glorious wraps this lad,
for mark
The rippled bands of scarlet over him!
Was the air jealous of supremacy,
Unwilling men should dare its track
less ways,
That it should fail his light keel, in the
Of clear sunset-hurl him earthward,
still?
This boy died nobly, though he died
while slim,
Scarce hardened, laughing and this
side the sea;
So, placing him in hero company,
We bring our best-our Flag-to cover
him!

MEMORIES

How thrills once more the lengthening
chain
Of memory at the thought of thee!
Old hopes which long in dust have lain,
Old dreams come thronging back again,
And boyhood lives again in me.
Yet hath thy spirit left on me
An impress time hath worn not out,
A something of myself in thee,
A shadow from the past see.
Lingering, even yet, thy way about.
Not wholly can the heart unlearn
That lesson of its better hours,
Nor yet, has times dull footsteps worn
To common dust that path of flowers.

AMERICAS PIONEER WOMEN
Continued from page y

the battle of Monmouth was fought he
was a sergeant in charge of big gun.
During one of the early charges he was
severely wounded. His wife was by his
side instantly, and carried him back to a
point of safety. When she had made
him as comfortable as possible he begged
her to go and take charge of the gun.
She went back but found that the soldiers
were just about to drag the gun away.
She begged them to leave it where it was,
and after a moment of wonder they did
as she requested. All that day she fired
the gun, occasionally going back to see
that her husband was comfortable, or to
give him drink. Right after the close
of the battle she prepared to take her bad
ly wounded husband home with her-they
lived near by-but she did not leave the
field before she was personally thanked by
George Washington for her splendid
courage, and the valuable assistance she
had given the American Army.
There are numerous women, hardly
known today, who rendered service to
their country when their help was most
needed. One of them was Rhoda Smith
Farrand, of New Jersey. Mrs. Farrand
was not only willing that her husband
and son go to the war, but she set about
to do everything she could to make the
brave patriots happy and comfortable.
She brought great quantities of food and
clothing to the camps at Monmouth, and
one week she collected from her friends,
whose help she enlisted, 1856 pairs of
socks.
Mary Gill Mills was woman of North
Carolina who did great work during
the Revolution. At the head of a band
of eleven strong, willing women she went
from farm to farm and harvested the
ripening crops. Had it not been for her
work a great deal Of valuable grain
would have been lost, for the men were
away from the farms, and the women
were not able to gather the crops without
assistance. By her work hundreds of peo-
pie were saved from suffering hunger.
There are dozens of militants,
if you care to call them such, but noble
women of whom we may well be proud.
With such women to lay the foundations
of our country it is not remarkable that
we have succeeded in building a nation
second to none.

General in Character.
BY 8, p, WEST.

NEW YORK. October 27-The repo+t
of the United States Steel Corporation
for the September quarter. good as u
was. showing earnings at the rate OF
nearly $50 share per annum for the
common stock. failed to create any
stir in today's market. There wers
two reasons for this-frst. the familiar
one of good news discounted. and sec
ond. the fact that Wall street along
with the business community outside
is waiting for a cut in steel prices OF
a much more satisfying sort than the
concessions reported here and there
in recent advices from the iron arid
steel centers.
1t may not be too much to say that
the announcement of a price cut that
will align steel with the other indus
readjustment process is the event
which the entire market situation is
awaiting more than anything else.
At all events. the way the specula
tive element looked at matters this
morning was that the series of high
ly favorable steel earnings statements
for the third quarter were out of the
way; that these had been what has
been holding up the recent market for
the steel stocks. and now il was time
for the steels to prepare for the ex
pected cut in price schedules.
Steel common opened down nearly a
due to selling, was not checked
until the stock was OF a point and a
half from last nights closing. Re-
public, Bethlehem B and LackawannS
gave way with the leader, and the
weakness in this group encouraged a
resumption of bearish activities in
other directions.

the fact that state commissions were

Working Center.

The report that the plebiscite to de-
/ termine the future affiliations of the
| lagenfurt area was in favor of the
! Austrian republic. followed by reports
/ that Jugoslavs army has entered the
. region. brings this bit of mounta in o US
! territory into the lmelight as a pos

, Where and what this contested area
! is and how there came to be con-
test over it are explained in the fol-
lowing bulletin of the National Geo
graphic Society:
Patch in Austrfn's Crazy Quilt.
when the crazy-quilt patchwork
of diverse peoples that made up the
old Austro- empire was
ripped apart by the treaty of st. Ger
main and rearransed more nearly in
accordance with nationality and Ian
guage. it was clear that the old Aus
trian province of Carniola, extending
from the klagenfurt area south al
most to Fiume. was Slavonic in it's
population. 1t was therefore fnclud-
ed in the Jugoslav kingdom. along
with the other obviously Slavonic
provinces in the southern part of the
old empire: Bosnia. Dalmatia. Herze-
govina. Croatia and Slavonia.
"Car1Gthia, the province adjoining
Carniola on the north and containing
the kla genfurt area. was recognized,
on the other hand. to be predominant
ly TeutoniC as whole. But it was
seen that the southeastern section of
the province. the valley of the Brave
river about Klagenfurt. had he; w
population of Slovenes. 1t was -elt
by the allies that the question wheth-
er the Teutons or the Slavs predomi-
mated in the region should he definite
" determined and that the area
should be attached according to the
desires of the majority of the resi-
dents. to the Teutonic republic of
Austria or to the Slav kingdom to the
south.
Has Rich Lead Mines.
The region which Austria retains
as a result of the plebiscite is roughly
almond shaped. approximately fifty
miles in extreme length and twenty
five miles in extreme breadth. with
