LET HIM MVK.
(Anonymous.)
As long as the flowers their perfumes
give, .. .
Bo Ion I'd let the kaiser live.
Live and live for a million years,
W4th nothing to drink but IlctBlnn
tear:
With nothing to quench bis awful
thirst
But the salted brlno of a Scotchman's
curso.
'l i
' I wouljl lot him live on a dinner each
' day,
Served from silver or golden tray,
Served, .with things both dainty- and
sweot,
Served, with everything but things
to eat.
I would make him a hod of silken
' shoen,
With costly linens to Ho between,
With covers of down, and filets of
luce,
And downy pillows piled In place
Yet when In Its comforts he would
;. : ylohl, ' .
It- would Btlnk with rot of the uut-
; tie field,
And blood and brains and bono of
' mon '
Should cover him, smother him. and
than,
TIs pillow should cling 1 with rotten
clay
Clay from tho gravo of a soldier boy;
And whllo o'od'a stars their vigil
keep. 1
And while his waves tho while sitnds
sweep,
Ho Bhottld never, nevur sleep.
And thru nil tho dttys thru nil tho
years,
There should bo an anthem In hlfl
oars
Hinging and Hinging and never done
From tho edgo of light to tho ut
of suit,
Moaning and moaning and inoniiing
wild
A ravaged French girl's bastard child.
And I'd, build him a castle by tho sen
As lovely a caatlo as ever could 1'.
Then I'd show him a ship from over
the sea.
As flno a ship as ever could be,
Laden with water cold and sweet.
Laden, with everything good to eat.
Yet acarro does Hho touch tho sil
vered lauds,
Scarce may ho reach his eager hand".
Thon a hot and hellish molten shell
Should change Ills heaven Into hell
And tho he'd watch by the wave-beat
shoro,
Our l.tisltaula would rise no more,
In "No Man's l.anu" where tho Irish
fell,
I'd start the kaiser a private hell;
I'd Jan him. stab him. give him gas,
And In each wound I'd pour ground
glass;
I'd march liim out where the brave
boys died.
Out past the luds ho crucified.
In the fearful gloom of bis llvlutt
tomb,
There la one lliliiu I'd do before 1
was thru
I'd mako him sing In a stirring man
ner iho wonderful words of "The Htnr
Spatigb d ttanner."

THE GREAT BATTLE BEGUN.
GERMANY has evidently resumed the offensive by
tiiniiiiL' to the south and striking in the Aisiie re
gion, as well as ecnl inning the
ports 011 the Lys. 1 he main attack is on a torty mile, front
between Noissens and Rheims, which has seen little fight
ing since the French won4 the battles of Oheinm-des-Dames
The northern attack is on a ten mile front.
This Klieims sector was
niaiis were expected to make their main attack last March
as success opens the gate to I'aris. The positions assailed
are within (0 miles of the French capital. It was here that
the French reserves wen; massed when the blow fell-on
the British at St. Qiicntiri. .
In turning to a new sector to strike their, blow the
Germans have taken a course
generally been predicted by
held that the wcrinaiis were
unpaign m J'icardv and r
such dangerously exposed positions that they were under
the necessity ol striking again
resumed the attack. The (ionium strategy may contem
plate a surprise attack in suflicient strength to compel
General Foch to withdraw troops from the north, in the
hope of involving the alliesKiilticicntly on- the -Aisne Iront
to weaken their lines in Ficardv and Flanders.
If the Germans counted on
proba'ily have fallen into a
Iroin the ollicial Uritisli statement, that new dispositions
of troops have been made along the Aisne front. Before
the March offensive the line
of St. Quenl in. Going to the
French took over a sector extending to a point east.ot
Amiens. There has been no previous intimation of the pres
ence of British troops on this part of the line, cxcept.for
last night's Uerman official statement reporting tiiat in the
region of the Aisne, northeast of La Neuville, British were
taken prisoners,
American troops may be taking part in the new battle
with the French as well as in the north with the British.
Early in the spring thero were several references in news
dispatches to the presence of Americans on the Aisne front.
Fart of these forces consisted of artillery detachments' in
training, but at one point at least infantrymen were in the
trenches. There has been no recent reference to Ameri
cans there, however, and they may have been withdrawn.
In the north, Americans are brigaded with the British.
Kesiimption of the drive on the Ypres sector has been
expected since the last attack near Kemmel was repulsed
just a month ago, and the British, reinforced by French and
Americans ought to be well prepared for the Hun onrush.
This baffle will demonstrate tiie wisdom of a single
command for the allied armies and will nee French, Brit
ish, Kalians and Americans fighting side by side wherever
the need is greatest. For the first time since the war be
gan, the Germans face a united army and the advantages
they have enjoyed of opposing a single command to di
vided councils, no longer exists.

ports that on May 11, In the latitude
or Cape St. Vincent, while proceeding
to meA a convoy, she sighted nnd

April , 1!(I8. ,
Pear Father: I urn in a base hos-
liitiil with the measles. I 'an youl
beat ttf I am not nick, there 1ms
been but one day that I felt badly,
though I'm Ktill in bed.'this beinn the
fourth day in the hospital. I think
they will let me up either tonight or
tomorrow, but probably they will
keep me here for three weeks. It's
going to give me u rest ami I figure
I'll be much belter off for it. This
is the first time I've missed getting
up at (i o'clock for nearly a year and
it surely does seem good. The hos
pital is nn old French hospital made
over by the Americans. , J don't know
anything about the other wards, but
this is eertainl 0. K, There arc '111
beds in it, but only six nre occupied
at present.
Say, you haven't nny idea how
those "honest-to-goodncss" beds feel.
They have real springs nnd white
sheets on them. When we first land
ed here we slept on the ground for
almost it month, not even having
slraw to lie on. Then we got ticks
full of fclrnw and felt wo were rolling
in luxury. A short time after thnt
we were given bunks, but only slept
on tliem one night, they had been
taken from n Uerman prison camp
uiuj were covered with "cooties." We
then made bunks out of scrap lum
ber. 1 really don't ere whether they
ever make me leave this bed or not.
We nlso have American nurses.
It looks' to me like this bisf drive
was the last effort that the kaiser
an possibly made. Of course, we
don't know any more about it than
you do, in fact, I doubt if we get as
much real war news as you do. Ev
ery one here is omtiinLstie nnd tliev
are betting at the front that it will
be over in .10 days. We all hope so
Jell mother not to worry because
f'm in n hospital, as it's the best place
in France right now. With love,
FREDERICK HEATH.
Our boys have surely earned nil
the praise and honor we cttn give
them. Suppose we demonstntte our
own gratitude for the comforts we en
joy by giving double lo the Red Cross
which takes such tender care of our
hoys.
The Association of Mothers, Wives
and Next of Kin are planning a ser
vice flag lor the association. The
cost of the service flag" to euch mem

cents a month. We want every next
of-kin in this district to have a star
on it for every boy in (lie service. We

Dcnr Mother: Today is Milliter's
Day, so I urn writ in.; n letter to you.
I received Helen's letter, ulso fath
crs. l nin so gum mere is a liur croi
of pours. Tell father I wish hint the
best luck ill pulling it through, nnd
wish I could be (hero to help him
e tellows enjoy getting letters
trout our triends and home nnd it
nn eager hunch Unit lines up for mail
cull. It is encoiinicing to know thai
we lire in the thoughts of home folk:
while we nre doing our bit for the
good old r. S. A.
You ask me to tell you something
about our duties. It is different with
us than with other branches of the
service, as we get very little drill, only
enough for exercise in the morning
before" school.
J was chosen m n bunch of BOO
men to go in the service us nn arm
orer us pleased with mv part. Wi
are hero ut the old Wilbur Wrighl
aviation school. The government took
it over, enlarged it, using it for the
same purpose. Aeroplanes are as
plentilul its birds in southern Oregon,
till kinds, from slit, lent planes lo the
liuye battle planes.
I was an eyovitiiess to a wreck a
few mornings ago when n student on
his first solo flight whs hanking his
plane-lost control and fell through
the roof of the supply office meet
ing instant dentil. I have completed
half my course on air craft machine
guns and bombs, nm so interested
in tnv school work, nnd in another
three weeks will, very likely, lie on
mv way uctoss to do more work ninny,
these lines. We have been assctnbl
hng nnd testing- n lumen of new guns
lo he sen! across imnicdiutely.
I intend to try for aero-gunner.
That will lie great to go up in one
of the battle planes nnd do battle with
other planes. The best marksman
wins. I'll take a chance with nny
(icruuin guiltier that rides the air.
My work as nrmorcr will be caring
Tor the bombs and guns used ou the
plunes anything wrong with these--cutised
by cnrclessness e? an armor
er would lead to courtmurtial. You
can see what depends on these guns
being in perfect order. Tlife life of
the pilot-gunner anil observer, loss
of the plane and any information they
have obtained, nil depends on their
defense.
Well, mother, I can't think of any
more at this time to tell you folks but
after I am further advanced' in my
studies I will be able to write things
far more interesting.
