The White Flower on the Field of Blood I
TO THE STAYAT HOME.
(Written by a Soldier at Camp Cody)
You say he can't stand the army,
The life Is too rough for him;
Do you think he is any better
, Than some other mother'H Tom oi
Jim?
You raised him up like a girl,
He don't miioko or drink Is youi
brag;
If all the rest of the boys were like
him,
What would become of our flag?
You any let the rough class do tin
fighting.
They are used to beans and stew:
I am glad I am classed with the
roughnecks,
Who will fight ror the red, white
and blue.
You sny his girl could not stand it
To send him off with the rest;
Don't you think she'd bo glad ho on
listed
When she feels a Herman's ho:
breath on her breast?
Think of tho women in llclKlmn,
Of tho cruelties they had to bear:
Do you want tho same thing to hap
pen
To your Innocent daughter so fair'.
You can thank Coil that the stars Id
Old (llory,
Are not blurred by that kind oi
sluln;
Bocausc there are ten million rough
necks
That hnve red blood In their veins
They go and drill in had weather,
And come In with a grin on theli
face,
While your darling sits In the parlor.
And lets another man flight in iiit
place.
ALaybe we do smoke and gamble.
Hut we fight as our forefathers did
Bo go warm the milk for his bottle:
Thank tied we don't need youi

(Dr. J. (. Kollitis.)
It may he said that wherever want
und mm abounds today there is the
lied Cross. It ministers in every
clime iinderevery fctm, to nil races und
its speak the lanuneo t' humanity.
No other one activity reaches so
fur and claims so much respect ami
encouragement as this, hi the night
mare, regions where the battle has
uevur died duwn for "0 long- months,
IliM Greatest of Mothers feeds the
hungry ares for the mothers and
guards the aged and children. .
I uceasiijly it puts heart intothe
marching1 milt ions and wails with
ever ready hand U:reeeive the wound
ed and sick.
The horrors of n prison camp be
hind the weakening fortifications of
the brutal linn are mitigated and
-foftened by its touch. It would he
hard to name an avenue of want
where the Ked Cross has not entered.
In the wake of German desolation
into the terror of broken families,
which is almost as horrible to antici
pate as (lie enslavement of the eou
(uerer comes this angel of mercy.
A vast amount of this service to n
'inrt world is far from spectacular.
Much of its ministry is close to tin
i'ront -under bursting' shells in my
riads of hospitals and desolated unc
-niiied areas but very much very
much of its important work is done ii
he o,uict ami hidden rooms of a loyal

In almost every hamlet, village ant'
rns roads are there chapters cr

And just as tho never failing snow

'or the life saving and cheer hring
ug nation on the battle front.
Kvery day the needs become more
ind more pressing. Supplies in evei
ncreaing amount are demanded.
larger hospitals' are being: built-
nore wounded and torn men are ear
d for. and we iuitt meet the call.
We may never forget that every
stitch placed by tireless fingers ev
ry click of Gie ceaseless knitting
speeds a bullet or wings a shell to
defeat the universal enemy. The tes
timony from every trench and wast
ed home is to the effect that this war
could not he won were it not for this
:Slormv I'etral of the World's char
ity." And here is the opportunity for
every loyal man and woman, every
boy and girl to help win the war.
Were it to be lost which please God
it can never be money and homes
would be memories, for the American
people, fed on the air of freedom. It
should not he neeesary for solicitors
to find us .for the purpose of giving
to this splendid service but if wi
me given ihe opportunity to serve it
should be with joy and freely.
Here as in every tit her city, score1
of women are giving unstintingly ot
their time and energy to the Her

there are of other women who hav
hot fallen into line. Here is an inter

five hours in Paris or lirussels, und
return to London befor" midnight!
Such is the possibility now Ileitis
widely discussed in the press mid by
the public.
This achievement will be made pos
sible niter the vnr perhaps even he
fore it ends-- by the construction of
a great railway tunnel under the Kng-li-li
channel.
The most interesting feature of the
plan to Americans is that it lias been
proposed that American capitalists or
the American government undertake
the task of building- the tunnel. The
chief reason for this is (he 1'uct tlmt
Americans have hud more exper
ience at subway building than Euro
peans, ns witness the Pennsylvania
railroad tunnels under .Manhattan anil
the Kust river.
The channel tunnel is not a new
proposal it was plunncd by Napo-
eon I, npun by Napoleon II T, and ns
recently us 1880 by u French and
English compuny. A house of com
mons committee killed the project in
lHfiX and it was not resurrected until
1 !' 1 7, when Chancellor Ilonur Law
slated ill th chouse of commons that
t was "pot practicable to proceed
with the matter during the war."
1". S. Capital to Ituilil It
The press una public, however, hnve
taken an opposite view, und the
French government has ulwuys been
:n lavor of the project, t upitalists
ind contractors in America have been
onsidcriiig- the subject, and nil that
icld them from seeking English und
French consent to go nhead with it
las been the necessity for employing
mcrican capital at home for the pur
hasc of Liberty bonds and other war
ises.
With thousands of American troops
n Franco und a bond established bc-
I' een America and her allies, France
ind Eng-lnml, that time can never de
droy, it is now suggested that Ameri
un government instead of 'private'
npitnl be employed to build the tun
nel, r
American, English and French en
rineers agree that mechanically the
lronosnl is even more feasible than
vas the Panama canal. The distance
s between 21) and 32 miles, but the
ecological conditions at the Straits of 1
'Jover lire far more favorahie than
inder the Hudson and East rivers or
n Punamii. The bed of the channel is
i stratum of chalk .(10 feet thick and
nipervions to water. The tunnel will
'e excavated very rapidly without
dusting, by cutting, digging and
icrnping machines. . 1
Tho iilans agreed upon in lOLl by
he ltritish and French tunnel compn
lies culled for two tunnels, ench 18
'eet in diameter, lined with east iron
mil concrete, connecting with tile
"ailwavs of France and Helgium ut
'.l'ais or Boulogne and with Ihe Ene
ish railwnys near Dover, and linking
r.ondon direclilv with the grout cities
if the continent.
Will Cost $nn,ooo,ooo
Ample provision was made fofpro
ecling each end of the tunnel by the
'ovcrnuients of England nnd France
'gainst invasion in time of war, which
ins been one of Ihe chief obstacles,
lilt with Ihe English und French peo
lcs united bv the war, and with Fn
tliind's condition of insular isolation
'Tactically annihilated, there is little
'"ear on that score. "
American engineers believe they
an build Ihe tunnel in four veal's at
n o-timnlcd cost of S(I.IIIIO.IUI(i. nnd
lliat the inveslnicnt would net earn
ings of .f.).(ir."i,ll00u year, or seven
per cent, by means of the tremendous
freight . and passenger traflie that
would pass through it. It is estimat
ed thut there will be .11(1 through
trains with .'lO.OfKI passengers between
London and Paris every day.
The result, it is believed, will he to
bring Aineri"n, England, Helgium and
France closer together, preserve Un
people, of Europe and advance civili
zation which is what America is
lighting for.
It is declared that if work is start
ed on the tunnel in 11107, it would
have been in operation throughout the
war, milking it possible to rush thou-
l sands of men from England to Ihe
front in n few. hours without danger
I from submarines, und thut it might
have ended the war in l!H(i. No one
can stiv how long the war will last,
and if work were started on Ihe tun
nel now it might yet die Hie determin
ing fuetor in winning the war.

THE TRUTH ABOUT CANDY
Conserving the
Candy Industry
It la not the wish of Ihe government to disintegrate Industry.
When people realize the truth about the candy Industry, they
Immediately sco that candy Is a wonderful food product, rich in
nutritive values and a necessary food f.ir people who work hard.
Sugar Is recognized as a necessity. Yet fevv. people take their
requirements of sugar a spoonful at a time, liko a big pill. Many
people like the sugar ln candy form. Thinking people realize that
ono man Is entitled to his sugar In candy form as much as anJIhcr
is entitled to take bis melted in coffee.
ln IMS (the Inst normal year In the Induslrvi, there were np
1 roxlmately sr.uO candy factories in the Fnited States, using about
S per cent of Ihe sugnr used In the fnited States. (Really a much
smaller percentage thaa anyone thought.)
The capital invested in the industry was more than $ir,"(,'i,
000. It was the thirty-eighth largest industry.
It employs normally one hundred thousand people, seventy-five
per cent of whom are woaun.
It nlso makes possible, to a largo extent, tho chocolato nnd
paper box Industries, with millions Invested, and employing thou
sands of people mostly won en. j
There ere- Hill people who believe that the caedy Industry Is us
ing from per cut to 50 per cent ot the national sugar consump
tion, and that the wiping out of the Industry would solve th3 sugar
prol-Ieni.
Hut, on the contrary, only S per cent sugar is used normally, and
today this lias been cut to 4 rcr cent.
ISeaMinuMe p-ople. with theso facts before them, are realizing
that with only po small an amount of sugar going in: i candy, and
In view ot the hi':h food value of candy. It Is time to consider tho
facts and figures and to enservo in other directions for further
sav incs.
In normal times the canity Industry im only 8 per
cent of the msar nrd per capita in tills country, flight
now this amount Iris been cut Hiimivly in two.
