The Following verses to the Unknown
Soldier" written by Angela Morgan. were
read at the services in Arlington Gene
terry by Ada Anne Du Puy. president OF
the League OF American Pen Women:
He 10 known to tho sun- white Males
Who stand at the gates Of dawn;
He 10 known to the cloaa-borns com.
Whose souls but late have gone.
Like wind-auns stare through lattice
They throns to greet their own.
With voice Of fame they sound his
Who died to NJ unknown.
He is hailed by the time-crowned
brotherhood,
By tho Daunties. Of Marathon,
By Raymond, Godfrey and Lion
Heart,
Whose dreams be carried on.
His name they call through the he.v.
emily hall,
Unh-ard by earthly ear.
He is claimed by tho famed in Ar
Who knew no title here.
Oh, faint WAS the lamp Of Sirius.
And dim was the Milky Way.
Oh, far was the floor of Paradise
From the soil whore tho soldier lay
Oh, chill and stark was tho Grim, On
dark
Who're huddled mon lay deep;
His comrades all denied his call
Long had they lain asleep.
Oh, strange how the lamp of Sirius
Drops low to the da1zled eyes;
Oh, strange how the steel-red battle
folds
Are floors of Paradise.
Oh, strange how tho ground with
never y sound
Swings open, tier on tier,
And standing there in the shining air
Are the friends no cherished here.
They arc known to tho sun-shod sen.
tineis
Who circle tho mornings door.
They arc. led by a cloud-brisht com.

Through paths unseen before.
Like blossom blown thoir souls have
flown
Past war and rocking sod.
In tho book unbound their namos arc

In regular formation and completely
shaded by trees ia the one that should
prevail throughout the entire GENE
terry. IL is these very tree-shade
areas TINT give Arlington Its fine and
characteristic quality. Today these
shaded areas predop!pate; but with
the burials of Worid-w6r soldiers In
open fields Arlington is fast losing it's
present distinction. No effort should
be spared to continue the planting
over the present bare and shadeless
areas.
More Tress Are Needed.
Both the World war and the Spanish
war sections should be planted with
trees that VIII produce shade to cover
the entire area. In the World war
section planting scheme should be
adopted in advance Of the scheme for
graves, or at least the two plans
should be simultaneous
This means the Immediate selection
and planting Of thousands Of trees in
the now vacant spaces OF Arlington.
Today these treeless portions. so out
OF harmony with the general appear
rance Of the cemetery, give one the
idea that the graves Of our latest
heroes are being placed rather in a
potter's field than in an honored loca-
tion.
The rules made several years ago
to regulate the character OF monu-
nents marking the graves Of officers
nave had quieting effect: but In
the newer area set apart for officers
there Is need Of trees. The regula-
tons against mausoleums. portraits,
and unusual designs should be en-
forced for the protection Of the many
against the self-assertion Of the few.
The officers whose careers need eulogy
on tombstone should not be accorded
in Arlington the credit that history
denies.
Roadway Should Be improved.
The road In front of Arlington
cemetery should be improved and de-
veloped along the entire frontage.
The space should be leveled the car
tracks raised to the surface and re.
located, and boulevard treatment
should replace the present neglected
and uncared for conditions. The right
way to deal with the situation Is to
have comprehensive plan made for
the entire development Of Arlington.
Arlington roads need renewing
The mansion house needs new floors.
woodwork and paint, and, especially.
the present barn-like appearance Of
the rooms devoted to the public.
should be- changed for the better Tx.
tensive planting Of trees. preferabI,
oaks, should begin at once. so that a
quarter OF a century hence the entire
cemetery may come into the fine con.
dition that the best portions now dis.
play. The roads leading to the GENE
terry should be made safe and adr-
quate. SO much the nation owes ("

have fought lis battles, and TO the relu

because Of this. and also to make an
effort to split the French and English
armies. the Germans made 8 great at

Rocks and crags hid the enemy's ma

the engagement the French were vir-
tually without artillery protection and
were fighting a hand-tO-hand action to
stop the Germans until help could
come. In the fighting OF May and

were without supports and reserves,
