ft Kis Two Horses . The awithor of this poem, Will iam II. Parr, F. A., U. S. R 4G3d Aero Squadron, wrote with regnrd to this pofim: The idea of the poem came to mo while Borvinff in the Fiold Artillery with the 1st Canadian Division. I once heard one of my drivers oxpresa wish that he would like to tako his horses along with him if he wore to 'ro west. The same shell killed the driver and both horses, and as I am a Montana man, and know how a real man comes to lovo a real harae, I had him buried with a horse upon oach side of him, and they now lie Bleeping up in the Yprea salient," 0 Lord I To Thee I want to make my prayer; My soul is troubled soro from day to day. I've never had the chanco to know Thee, Lord Nobody ever taught mo how to pray. So if my prayer is notua it should be, Is not as padro prays on church parade, Please pardon me; forgive what I've forgot, For at Thy feet my naked soul is laid. If in the roster kept by Thee above, My name is next to cease this life fatigue And I must fall in with my fallen palu, A clean life's page behind 1 want to leave. Grant that 1 die where bursting sharpnel sings, My team upon a galtop toward the foe, And when my soul at last re ports to Tlico Pleaue let mo tako my horse where 1 go.

I know my.saddlo black is protty mean, And kicks and bites at every one but mo; Still when I'm with him he is always good Juat let mo bring 'Jiim up for You to see. He'd bo ill treated if I left him hero. Be kicked and cursed and starved until ho died. Pleaisocan'tl ride him through the uo den streets.

X A ADITORIAL How many young people today allow their thoughts to carry tliem back into the days of their parents, or their grandparents?' In those old days, homespun was common, most of our sturdy ancestors were clothed in apparel made in the homes. And frequently cobbler's outfits made a good deal of lioniC'Slioe-making common. No conveniences like the telephone or the automobile existed then. Today, at every turn in our lives, wc find devices and methods and systems and applications and modern structures, all. serving to make our lives easier to live, and more capable of enrich ing us in our short span on earth. Now when the old folks get reminiscent and tell of "the good old days," and how cheap things were then, consider whether or not they didn't pay in some way or other than with money. It costs lots to live today, but it's worth it. Now, today, this is a wonder ful time to live.
