OF AMERICA
This is the face of America.
The fighting face of the nation
Wise but believing. laughing but knowing.
Ready in wars dedication.
Here is a jaw with New England SET
An eye with Texas twinkle.
A smile from the bright. broad Iowa plains.
brow with Georgia wrinkle.
Here is nose like Utah crag
And chin like Maryland boulder.
A cheek that is tanned by the wind off land
That's as broad as western shoulder
And here is faith and wisdom. too.
A grace and an awkward ease.
And here is homely certainty
That men can be kings if they please.
Yes this is the face of America.
And nations set free once more
Read hope and the promise of peace at last
In the faces of men at war.

unknown source and did not state
where Joe was at or when he would
be home. This is the first word
that the Derers, who live at 1873
Pine street, have had in two
months of their sons whereabouts.
In a speech to 10000 freed Amer
lean prisoners of war, General
Dwight Eisenhower promised to
get them home as fast as he posi-
bly, could.
He informed them that he had
ordered all American ships carry
ing prisoners of war to be loaded to
capacity and that he had even
asked the men to share their in
dividual beds and to sleep in shifts
so that they could be home sooner.
Among the men was Pfc. Joseph
Schmidt, son of Mrs. Kathryn
Schmidt of 463 Vinewood avenue,
who was attached to the 30th In
fantry division which was captured
near Colmar about three months
ago.
Word was received from the Red
Cross Monday by Mrs. Jacqueline
Rice, 1854 Veronica drive, Old
Homestead, that her husband, Cpl.
Jack Rice had been liberated. A
prisoner of war in Germany since
January, he was at one time sta
toned in a camp near Dresden.
The Wyandotte corporal was cap
tured In France January and was
first reported missing by the War
department. He Is the father Of
one daughter, Judith Ann, three
years old. His parents are Mr.. and
Mrs Glen Rice of 1894 Veronica
drive.
