" ' A LINE ABOUT CONSCRIPTION. g Editor's Note: The following lines were composed by Jimmle Dinnen, a Condon boy who was born and spent his early boyhood In Ireland. The ideas herein expressed are supported universally by the Irish born Amei icans, 'whose patriotism U on a par with all loyal, native born Americans. If you1 win kindly listen for a min ute or two", I'll relate a short lesson about con ' ". scfiptioh W you. To be truthful and exact, Imust start .. about last May, For that -was when Congress passed . the act,. I heard people say. Each man between the age of twenty .. one and thirty, just In his youth . and bloom, Was requested to register In his own precinct on the fifth day of June. Some said ft was for tho census, while others said 'twas for the war, And to the best of my opinion, they did not miss It far. Most of them registered with a heart good and true. As they thought of their forefathers, who wore the grey and blue. A few of them were smart enough, their age to deny, . But such man as they, cannot past, their dear old Uncle's eye. m Next came the draft and army to u- nite And select out, the men best able to fight. It was a fair law, we can all plainly see, To shake up the numbers at Wash ington D. C. Tho poor and rich or whatever they be, Must all fight together for the flag of the free. We have here, many aliens from those lands far away ho should now stand together and protect the U. S. A. They had to leave their home and their parents as well , To seek a better living where the men of freedom dwell. Now why should they abandon it and return home again? Some may claim exemption but for very little reason. They may have picked up a bride ear ly in the season. But young men you must remember, if married since the fifth of June It is only now September and you can't have a dependant family so soon. Besides you were forwarned by Con gress last May, That there would be no exemptions for those who married after reg' istration day. One man claimed exemption and when asked what was his claim Said he had a widow with two or phans And could not leave the same. If you will think a moment and this excuse recall, You can see his wife became a wld ow before he died at all. I know a. few old boys that got very badly stung, They went and registered to make the girls believe them young, And now afraid of being drafted soon Claim to be much older than what they were in June. This war we know is cruel, on land and on the sea, And the only way to end It is to con quer Germany. When the call for examination is sent out to every man, He should bo ready and willing to do whate'er he can, To fight for the Stars and Stripes and for freedom of the seas, And make the poor old Kaiser get down upon his knee3. "I am going to rule ths world," is what he used to say, But we'll find out, without a doubt he won't rule America. We must thank President Wilson for taking such a noble part, To try and end a cruel wr.r that has broken many a mother's heart. And when peace Is again resored Is those lands across the sea, Those heroes will be then adored, Who fought for freedom and democ racy.
