Roseburg, Or. At the dedication exercises at Glide recently, when a Bervice flag containing more stars than the ser vice flag of any. other community of a similar population, a poem which is so fitting at this time that The News reproduces it, was read by Mrs. Los lie Lilly: Go, My Boy, Where Duty Calls. Go, my boy, and heaven blesB you! I have road each precious line Of your heart's responsive throbbing To a higher call than mine. God has Bpoken you have heard Him, And though tears these eyes bedim, Your affection for your mother Shall not mar your love for Him, Could I bid you stay from fondness When the ever ruling hand Marks your path to duty clearly For the safety of your land? No! 'tis yours to be a patriot. And 'tis mine to be as true; Go, my boy, where duty calls you And my heart shall follow you! Go In faith and feel protection In a power supreme, divine; Should a bullet pierce your body It will also enter mine, Do I think of this in sorrow Does my love sad fears renew? Do I tremble at the prospect? No, my son, no more than you. Dear to me is every pathway Where your precious feet have trod; But I give you fondly, freely, To my-country and my God.t You and I shall never falter - In the .fork we have to do; Go, my boy, where duty calls you Any my heart shall follow you. I shall pray for you how often With the waking hour of morn. Through the labors of my household And whon night is coming on. If a mother's prayer can keep you! JMid tno dangers you incur, God! will surely bring you back Again to happiness and her. t will never doubt the goodness That has kept you until now, ' That has kept the evil from your Heart, the shadow from your brow, And I know that It shall keep You in the path you must pursue, uo, my ooy, where duty calls you . And my heart shall follow you. If my) !boy were less a hero, Less the man in thought and deedj I had less to give my country In her trying hour of need; And I feel a pride In knowing That to serve this cause divine From the hearthstone goes uo braver Heart than' that which goes from mine. I have loved you from the hour That my lips first pressed -your Brow Ever tenderly! but never Quite as tenderly as now; All I have Is His who gave it, Whatsoe'er He bids me do; Go, my boy, where duty calls you And my heart shall follow you. I shall miss you in the springtime, When the orchard is In bloom. When the smiling face of nature Battles its beauty In perfume; When the birds ore sweetly singing By tile door and on the wing, I shall think of you who always Used to pause and hear them sing. Long will seem the waning hours Through the drowsy summor day With my boy exposed to dangers On a soil far, far away, But my spirit shall not -murmur, Though a tear bedim my view; Go, my boy, where duty calls you, And my heart shall follow you. I You will coine and see your mother Come and) kiss her as you say; From her lips receive the blessing That shall oheer you on yoiur way! From her fend embrace go forward To resist your country's foe With the comforting assurance That your mother bade you go. Now may heaven protect and bless you, Holy angels guard your way, Keep your spirit from temutatlon And your feet from going astray To your mother ever faithful, To your country ovr trim, Go, my boy, where duty calls you And my heart shall follow ou. -T- nitted socks; Mrs. Ralph Pyritz, quilt.

What The Packers Do For You Not very many years agp.in the history of the world, the man that lived in America had' to hunt for his food, or go without. Now he sits down at a table and decides what he wants to eat; or his wife calls up the market and has it sent . home for him. And what he gets is incomparably better. Everyone of us has some part in the vast , human machine, called society, that makes all this convenience possible. '' .;V-..:::.T-,. The packer's part is 'to. prepare meat and get it to t every part of the country, sweet and fresh to obtain it from the stock raiser, to dress it, cool it, ship it many miles in special refrigerator cars, keep it cool at distrib uting points, and get it into the consumer's hands your . hands through retailers, all within about two weeks. For this service so perfect and. effective that you are scarcely aware that anything is being done for you1 you pay the packers an average profit of only a fraction of a cent-a pound above actual cost on every pound of meat you eat. - .
