-'Just Break the News to Mother"
By Charles K. Harris.
While the shots and shells were screaming
Upon the battlefield,
The boys In blue were nehting
Their noble nag to shield.
Came o cry from their brave captain,
Who'll volunteer to save It from dissracee'
..I,, 81 ,Tiiin young boy shouted.
And sprang into the thicksst Of the fray.
Saved the nag. but gave his young hfe.
And as they brought him back
They softly heard him say:
Chorus.
Gust break the news to mother.
She knows how dear I love her,
And tell her not to wait for me.
For I'm not coming home.
just say there Ii. no other
can ta.s the place Of mother
And break the news to her."
From afar q noble general
Had witnessed this brave deed,
Who saved the flag, oh. speak up. lads,
There be lies, sir SAID the captain,
Hes sinking very fast"
And slowly turned away to hide q tear:
The general il a moment knelt down be-
Then save a cry that touched all hearts
TITS my SON my brave young hero;
II thought you safe at home"
Forgive me. father. for ran away"
Vt Chorus.
+ This is one of Charles X. Harris
songs which was popular years
ago. II the music is not obtain
able In Washington, perhaps the
New York Times can help locate
an old copy for music.
The above is written from MEM

this composer. I cannot remem-
ber the exact year, so long ago,
more than so years, I am sure.

Responsibility of Parents

Juvenile Court Judge Cockrill hears lot
of excuses for juvenile delinquency in individual
cases. One excuse with which she has little
sympathy is the one that the schools and
churches are not doing their part in teaching
children to behave. The excuse often is given
by parents who themselves are largely to blame
for the misconduct of their children. There are
a lot of old-fashioned parents who will agree
with Judge Cockrill that too many parents
"expect the schools to take over all the RESPONSE
bilities" of training children as good citizens.
The schools, churches and other organlza-
lions have responsibility in youth training, OF
course, but they cannot be considered as proper
substitutes for parental supervision and dis
eipline. It is in the home that children must
get their basic training in good manners and
respect for the rights of others They Will not
get this vital indoctrination if parents cannot
find time to give it because OF less important
activities, such as bridge luncheons or club life.
Judge Cockrill is right in deplor1ng the
modern-day tendency of parents "to turn over
their responsibilities to society and the ten
dency also of social welfare organizations to be

"I was happy until the next morning,
"There was that kitten agal!
"This time I determined tostake it
but at the last moment my rsolution
failed. It would make me yry late
for work, on a morning I G tld not
afford to be late at all.

haunted me all day.
1.-THE next morning I highly lesolved,
If I saw the creature, to pick itup and
take it away to better fate.
Usually, in such situations, never
see such an animal again.
1T never know. in most case what
does become of it.
This time I was more fortuAte.
There was the kitten, runnin9n and
out between peoples feet. Cars ihizzed
within few feet Of the animated pound
Of meat.

when got home hours later, 1t ran
to greet me.
1T was clean, but veritable flea fac
tory. More than a hundred big black
heas came off that small animal.
LAS to the number of flea eggs, could
hazard no guess at all.
There must have been literally thou
sands Of them. They only show up when
seen on hard-polished surface.
To-day that kitten is happy member
Of my home, beautiful, contented.
'I am glad rescued it. If I could
always do the right thing, no matter
how small, I would be consistently happy,
suppose.
Sincerely, D. D."
Doing the right thing, at the right
time, is the solution of many, if not most
of life's difficulties.
In regard to small animals, there seem
to be as many solutions as there are
people. Some must take home every
abandoned animal. Others think of
nothing but putting it to Sleep" as
they say.
For giving stray dog or cat home.
at least for q time, much can be said.
Surely the cat is on the side of the
angels. Often it is possible to find a
good home for the creature, or it may
turn into household favorite, who
knows. Our correspondent is to be con-
graduated on having done good deed
in q naughty world.
