All the school stayed in the au ditorium for the first of the talk, after which the older boys and girls stayed for further discussion and questions.

We are following suggested state plans and have been proud of the interest shown and comments made by outsiders. eMother Corsica! Corsica! It’s an island, that’s true, That’s why I’m writing this poem to you. My surroundings are new and my friends are few, But it thrills me at dawn, to see the morning dew. The sun, then, rising over the bay, Makes me think of you, Mother, far, far away. They’re sweet memories, that lie in the past. We all dream of returning too, some sweet day. And at the present time, with Cor sica in view, My thoughts, Mother dear, are mostly of you. I think of you so often, with a heart so true; When at my journey’s end, Mother, I’ll come back to you. And now, before I end, I’d like to say, I’ve had this typewritten, for I want it that way. So keep it. Mother dear, until the final day When I come home to you; nev er more to stray. —Cpl. Jeff M. Perry Mysteryßooks WANTED Mrs. Wallace Temple wants mystery stories to send to men in service. She wants those with paper backs—the kind selling for about twenty-five cents a copy. If you have any that may be giv en, please do not delay, but send them to Mrs. Temple for inclusion in boxes that are being packed for shipment. These mystery, or detective stories afford hours of entertainment for men who may be sick or wounded and who do not feel equal to serious reading.
