MONTS1KXT FOIl SOLDIERS
A monument for the soldiers!
And what will ye build It of?
Can ye build it of marble, or
brass, or bronze.
Outlasting- the soldiers love?
Can ye glorify It with leg-ends
As grand aa their blood bath
writ
Prom the inmost shrlna of this
land of thine
To the outermost verge of It?
A mounment for the aoldlers!
Built of a people's love.
And blazoned and decked and
panoplied
With the hearts ye build It of!
And see that ye build It
stately.
In pillar and niche and rate.
And high In pose as the son la of
those
It would commemorate!
JAMES WHITCOMB RIL.EY-
CASUALTY LISTS
VE are beginning; to receive
the casualty lists from
the heavy fighting: on
the Marne and other French
battles. A few days ago a to
tal of 706 casualties were an
. nounced for the day. We are
told that this is no indication of
the total number of casualties.
The lists are made public as
they are received in Washing
ton by cable from General
Pershing's headquarters. As
the list are received they are
decoded and the next of kin
are notified by the adjutant
general's office in advance of
the publication of the names in
the press.
The fact that so many casu
alties are made public in i
single day does not indicate
that number is to be taken as
the daily average to be expect
ed, and there should be no spe-
ulation on any such basis. Gen
eral Pershing will supply com
plete and verified lists as rap
idly as they can be prepared
and transmitted. . . These in
turn will be given to the news
papers and will speak for
themselves as to numbers.
The losses reported and to
come will bring sadness to
many homes. But personal
grief will be tempered by the
righteousness of the cause in
which thsse brave men have
given themselves, and by th
pride which all free people
take in the magnificent results
of their heroism.

France has forbidden the
use of rice powder for the face.
That's right. Shoot it at the
Huns.
Don't believe any rumors
that the crown prince, or any
other son of William, has been
captured. The crown price
uses a tactical movement that
makes his capture practically
impossible. When the army is
advancing or standing still in
battle he remains five or .10
miles in the rear and then,
when the army about-faces to
retreat, he is in the lead. ...
You know what Sherman
Lsaid about war. What d'you
s'pose he would have said
about a German peace?
........
No better commentary on
the mischeviousness of Lord
Lansdowne's recent open let
ter urging immediate discus
sion of peace with the Ger
mans can be found than in the
fact that his utterances have
received hearty praise in Berlin.
Today is the 20th anniver
sary of the capture of Manila
by the American doughboys
and in rememberance of the
occasion the Spanish war vet
erans in Pendleton will gather
at the Christian church with
their families to spend the
evening in talking over the days
of 20 years ago. In those days
they had a part in the making
of history as other fendleton
boys are doing in France today.

seventy two departments of the
interior, the Red Cross is sup

including government agencies,
are cooperating in this work,
the Red Cross supplying the
greater part of the food and

points taking command of the

An idea of the amount of

(By Maximilian Foster.)
A churchgoer of the ordinary, old
fashioned kind would be a bit puz
zled, no doubt, If he were to see the
way the American army In France
observes the Sabbath day. Sundays
over here are not the same sort one
is accustomed to at home. Even the
most religious among our fighting
men have widened In their views re
garding the Sabbath.
Understand, now, this does not
mean that our boys have grown un
godly. It is the very opposite, rath
er. The first thing that Impresses
the newcomer, in spite of what he
may have heard at home. Is the strik
ing decency and wholesomenesa of
this host of young Americans. France
in fact, has marvelled at our soldiers'
self-restraint; for no matter what
history has had to say of other great
bodies of armed men, our boys have
conductd themselves in a way . to
make their mothers proud. So, even
though It be said that their attitude
toward Sunday has altered, this does
not mean far from it, indeed that
It has altered for the worse . It
means merely that among them Sun
day Is not devoted entirely to reli
gious observances.
"All Work Slakes Jack Dull Iloy
The fact is all work and no play
may make Jack not only a dull boy
but may make him a vicious one as
v.ell. On Sundays, therefore, those
Interested in the spiritual welfare of
our soldiers give them, besides texts.
good bit of wholesome amusement.
A couple of Sundays ago. for exam
pie. the writer saw a well-known
preacher from the states umpiring a
baseball game. Strange as this may
sound to some. It requires only
moment's thought to figure the prac
tical good he was doing. Near the
camp was a long row of buvettes and
cheap cafes, each of them offering
other less wholesome attractions.
There was not an American soldier
In one of them.
Disabuse your mind of the idea
that our soldier boys are wandering
footloose in France, ready to fall for
every temptation. They're not. And
If these Sundays over here are not
what you think they should be don't
Imagine that ungodliness has cursed
our army. It hasn't. Here, If you
like Is a picture of one Sabbath day
In France.
Picture of One, Sablwth Day In Franc
The place Is up In the I.uneville
sector. That Sunday the sun was
shining, glowing down wth a dazzling
radiance on the flowering fields and
hills behind the lines. Out In front,
a bare three kilometers away, was
the ugly, scarred zigzag of the front
line trenches, the one blemish on the
landscape as far aa the eye could
see.
Hut never mind about that. Here,
less than a half mile from that
blighting cicatrice, the birds were
singing in the coppices. Nearby, the
utile town, hardly more than a vll
lake and now battered by the Hun's
oombs and shells, lay peaceable and
Quiet in the. morning air. Presently
one heard a burst of song, that good
old hymn, "Rock of Ages Cleft for
ie. It rose on the quiet, probelled
from a hundred or more sturdy
lungs. The source of It was a Y. M.
A. hut, now tenanting what once
naa Deen a blowsy drinking place. In
side morning seryices were going on.
War Imposes New Duty.
The leader of the services was a
former Buffalo. N. Y.. real estate and
Insurance man. He was not a preach
er, he never had. been one, but the
war had Imposed on him this new
duty. The services were brief, but
they were earnest. The roomful of
sturdy stout-lunged American hoys
Put heart and soul into the song they
sang.
After they had finished it. the ex
tempore pastor gave them, a little
talk. There was nothing smug about
It. nothing mealy-mouthed. it was
Just a hlng-bang sort of an allocu
tion such as one might have heard In
athletic-field dressing room be
tween the two halves of a 'varsity
football match. You had the feeling
that you wanted to cheer when the
speaker finished. But the congrega
tion didn't cheer. In a brisk, busi
nesslike way It hunted ui another
hymn, and went at it hammer and
tongs, putting energy and vim and
wholeheartedness Into the way it got
the song across. About its earnest
ness one had no doubt.
Prayer Straight from .Shoulder.
A prayer followed. There was no
rhetoric In that praj'er, but It was
straight from the shoulder. It was
the sort of direct simple plea anv
good real estate Insurance nmn from
uuffalo would make when he real
ized he was carrying a full line of in
demnity with his creator. Any of
them, the "Y" man included, might
"go west" pass out ere the day
was gone. - They all knew it. too.
