Sammy's Last Smoke He blushed beneath his sweetheart's I glance, A Sammy on his way to France. With head erect and flashing gun, He prayed to meet and beat the Hun, Side by side with comrade French He took his station in the trench. Cannon belch and shot nnd shell Made his post a pit of hell, And in the midst of fiercest fray, Both Sammy's arms are shot away. Asked a comrade tried and true. VWhat, old pal, can I do for you?" Said he, "I'm but a ghastly joke. Just roll for mo my one last smoke." He puffed, and in contentment sighed, Curled in a heap, the hero died! MELVlN G. WINSTOCK.
