SPIRIT OF OUR
PATRIOTIC MOTHERS
(This poem, originally published in
the Chicago Post as the contribution of
a patriotic mother, was recently re
published in the Oregonian by request
of a Portland mother whose son, too,
had just joined his regiment. The
Glacier herewith reprints the noble
words, which carry an especial appeal
to the many mothers of Hood River
county whose eons have rallied to their
country's call).
My son, at last the fateful day has
come
For us to part. '. The hours have
nearly run.
May Goof return you safe to land ar.d
home ;
Yet, what God wills, so may his will
be done.
Draw tight the belt about your slender
frame;
Flash Hue your eyes! Hold high
your proud young head !
Today you march in Liberty's fair
name, f
To save the line enriched by France's
dead!
I would not it were otherwise! And yet
'Tis hard to speed your marching
forth, my son!
'Tis doubly hard to live .without regret
For love unsaid, and kindnesses un
done. But would the chance were mine with
you to stand - - '
Upon those Bhores ar.d see our Flag
unfurled! '. -
To fight on France's brave, unconquer
ed land
With Liberty's great sword for all
the w)rld !
Beyond the waves, my son, tlie siren
calls,
The sky is black and Fastnet lies
abreast ; . '
A signal rocket flings its pale stars
and falls
Across the night 1 welcome Eng
land's guest.
' -
When midst the scud you see the Corn
ish lights.
And through the mist you hear faint
Devon chimes, ,
Thank God for memories of those other
nights
And . days on other ships in happier
times.
Perhaps 'you'll stand within the pil
lared nave
And aisles where colored sundust
falls, and see
Old Canterbury Church where Becket
gave
His life's tjest blood for England's
liberty !
Some, night you'll walk, perhaps, on
Salisbury Plain ;
Above Stonehenge the Druid's stars
still sleep',
And on the turf within the circled fane
Beneath' the autumn mown still lie
the sheep.
And if you march beside some Kentish
hedge,
And blackberries hang thick clus
tered o'er the ways,
Pluck down a branch ; Rest by the
road's brown edge ;
Eat ! Nor forget our Jast'vacation
days!
And then the trench in battle-scarred
Lorraine; .
The town bolt burned, but held in
spite of hell ;
The bridge twice taken, lost, and won
agaiij.;
The cratered glacis ripped with mine
and shell. ,
The leafless trees, bare-branched in
spite of June ;
The sodden road, the desolated plain ;
The m.ateless birds, the season out of
tune ;
Fair France, at bay, is calling
' through her pain.
Oh, son ! My son ! God keep you safe
and free
Our Flag and you ! But if the hour
must -come
To choose at lust 'twixt self and lib
erty , We'll close our eyes! So let God's
will be done !
Freshet's Decline Relieves Koberg
J. H. Koberg, ose extensive gar
dens lie along the Columbia lowlands
just east of here, declares that the de
cline of the annual freshet occurred
just in time to save him much money.
While Mr Koberg's acres are safe ex
cept for extreme high water because
of the dikes he has constructed, seep
age water had begun to cause him
worry. With two big gasoline pumps
going, the seepage water was gaining
until the river began last week to re
cede rapidly.

Those readers of 1 he Clansman will
easily note Griffith's wonderful im

WHITE SALMON HAS
DISASTROUS FIRE
Accompanied by many citizens, a
score of the members of the Hood Kiv
er Volunteer Fire Department rallied
it b.JO o clock Saturday morning to
Ihe call of White Salmon, where fire
ngmating in a butcher shop swept
clean a block of old frame buildings.
the tire was sighted, however, just at
the opening hour, and most 01 the ten-
nts of the burned over district, among
them an office of the Pacific Power &
Light Co., were able to save the larger
part of their property.
the local hremen. called bv the ring
ing of the bell here, raced in automo
uiles to the ferry landing and were
across the Columbia at the scene of
ihe lire in a record time.
But for the comparative calm that
prevailed, White Salmon's loss would
have been much heavier. Fire protec
tion is meagre, and it was necessary
to fight the flames with garden hose
and buckets. The burned buildings
were located on the north side of the
town's principal business street. So
intense was the heat that much dam
age was done to structures on the south
aide of the thoroughfare. Plate glass
windows were melted, and excitement
prevailed when fireworks, just received
for Independence Day celebration, ex
ploded in one of the scorched buildings.
Miss Ferguson Gives Recital
Before an audience of 100, many of
whom were from Astoria, where the
gifted young woman was born and re
sided for several years, and Hood Riv
er, where the family now has an orch
ard home in the Odell community, Miss
Martha Ferguson, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. J. E. Ferguson, recently gave a
recital of miscellaneous readings, an
expression recital lasting for an hour
and a half, at the Gillespie School of
Expression in Portland.
1 he' last two readings of her program
were "The Blood of the Ajiple, " and
A Ury Mooley in btrawberry Time,
from Anthony Euwer's "Rhymes of
0 ur Valley." Mrs. Virginia Euwer,
itiother of the young valley poet, who
naked the famous strawberry shortcake
ihat inspired the " Dry Mooley" rhyme,
was a member of the audience. Miss
crguson who is a student of the Odell
high school, has won marked attention
it re recently for her ability as an elo
cutionist. She is 13 years of Jage.
Morgano Organize Firemen
As a result of Saturday's fire at
White Salmon, where several wooden
business houses were destroyed, entail
ing a damage of $20,000, L.G. Morgan,
chief of the local fire department, will
spend a part of this week in the neigh
boring town, organizing a fire depart
ment. The 20 local firemen who responded
with apparatus to fight the White
Salmon blaze, according to Chief Mor
gan, made a record trip from this city.
In 40 minutes after Chief Morgan had
received the telephone message from
the trans-Columbia town, the local men
were fighting the flames at White
Salmon.
Odell Bible Students Pass
Edgar Harris, Walter Gilkerson and
Miss Martha Ferguson, this year's
graduates of the Bible class of th
Odell Sunday school, conducted by Mrs.
J. E. Ferguson, president of the Hood
River County Sunday School Associa
tion, have just received notice from J.
A. Churchill, state superintendent of
education, that they have passed the
state examinations, which will grant
them high school credit for their BiDle
study. All of the Odell Btudents re
ceived grades above 90. Miss Fergu
son's grade was 97 per cent.
McKay Buys Beltz Place
Kenneth McKay has purchased from
J. H. Beltz, of Pendleton, a two story
brick residence on Cascade avenue.
The fruit man will move to the newly
purchased home with his mother and
sisters, of Portland.
C. O. Huelat, who has been residing
at the Beltz residence, will move this
week with his family to the Hall resi
dence on Columbia street.
Runaway Horse Thrills
Business men on Oak street received
a thrill Friday when the old family
horse of Peter Mohr became frightened
at a power flusher being operated by a
crew engaged in cleaning the streets,
broke from a hitching post, whirled
with the buggy and dashed off down
the street. The vehicle swaying after
the fleeing horse grazed vehicles and a
bad smashup seemed inevitable, when
the animal fell headlong. So great
as the momentum that the horse slid
for 30 feet along the smooth surface of
the street Bystanders rushed to the
fallen animal, which was found with
out a scratch. Except for the bridle,
broken when the horse jerked loose
from the hitching post, the harness
was intact.
Taking Big Chances.
It is a great risk to travel withont a
bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, as this prepara
tion cannot be obtained on the trains or
steamships. Attacks of bowel complaint
are often sudden and very severe, and
everyone should go prepared for them.
