A SOLDIER’S DREAM
(The verses below were written
by Pvt. Henderson Uriah Whitley
of Bailey, now stationed at Fort
Knox, Ky.)
A soldier’s life is but a dream;
To do it is impossible sometimes !
it seems;
But we’ll see it through,
Fighting for victory and the red,
white and blue.
Although we are happy and gay
Our thoughts sometimes go astray;!
We think of those we have left be
hind—
Os sweethearts, friends and mother
kind.
We dream of the days that have
passed;
How you looked when we saw you
last.
With a tear in your eye and a
smi'e on your face
We will always remember 1< ve and
embrace.
When it’s over and we’ve seen it
through
For old Glory and the red, white
and blue,
We pray that God will keep you
the same •
Until we boys came home again. I

DON’T BE AFRAID OF WORK
(The following is reprinted at
the request of J. A. Braswell.)
The following paragraph was i
written as advice from a father to
his son, but it is a good condensed
sermon for anyone:
“My son, remember you have to
work. Whether you handle pick or
yheelbarrow or a set of books,
digging ditches or editing a news
paper, ringing an auction bell or
I writing funny things, you must
work. Don’t be afraid of killing
yourself by overworking on the
sunny side of thirty. Men die some j
times, but it is because they quit |
at 9 p. m. and don’t go home until |
2 a. m. It’s the intervals thai kill, j
my son. The work gives you appe- j
tite for your meals; i f lends st.lidi-'
ty to our slumber; it gives you a
perfect apreciation of a holiday. |
There are young men who do not j
work, but the country is not proud
of them. It does not even know
1 their names; it only speaks of them
jas So-and-So’s boys Nobod/ likes
them; the great busy world does
n’t know they are here. So find
out what you want to be and do.
