POEM FOR THE DAY.
Because some men In khaki coats l
Are marching out to war.
Beneath a torn old flag that floats
As proudly as before;
Because they will not stop or star.
But march with eager tread,
A little baby far away
Sleeps safely In her bed.
Because some grim, gray sentinels
Stand always silently.
Where each dull shadow fails and
/ swells
Upon a restless sea;
Because their lonely watch they keep.
With keen and wakeful eyes,
A little child may safely sleep
Until the sun shall rise.
Because some swift and shadowy
Hold patient guard, on high.
Like birds or sails or shielding wings
Against a stormy sky;
Because a strange light spreads and
sweeps
Across a darkened way, •
A little baby softly sleeps
Until the dawn of day.
—O. R. Glasgow.

thoughts for the day.
‘If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you like to win but think you
can't.
It’s almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost;
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellobr’s will,
It’s all in the state of mind.
If you think youFe outclassed, you
are;
You've got to think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself be
fore
You can ever win a prise.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the one who thinks he can.”
—Exchange.

Attractive Young Woman
Returns Today to North
After Visit of Weeks Here
When the northbound train leaves
today it will have on it a younK
woman from Pittsburg, Pa., who will
carry away with her the good wishes
of scores of friends that she hae made
in the ten long? weeks she has been
laid up with a broken hip in a local
hospital. This young woman is Miss
J-ula Corbett, who has, for half a
dozen years, represented most suc
cessfully a big fountain pen com
pany. She is the one woman of the
twenty-flve representatives, and each
year carries off the honors 'for sales
manship, and is affectionately known
as the “Emma McChesney” of the pen
business. Miss Corbett came to this
city Easter Sunday intending to leave
I next day. She was invited to j^>end
the day with the one family that she
was acquainted with and who have
known and loved her fo» years, and
while there had the great misofrtune
to trip over a rug on the waxed floor
and break her hip. She was removed
! to the hospital where the ten weeks
haVe been spent. If any one doubts
I that Montgomery people know how
| to be friendly to strangers in misfor
tune. they had only to go into Miss
| Corbett’s room, which was always a
| mass of beautiful flowers and fruit
and tempting home made dainties.
The many friends she has made are
wishing her God-speed on her home
ward trip. One of the last courtesies
she received was a farewell party
given her by Mrs. It. P. Holltnshed
at Oak Park Tuesday afternoon. Each
guest brought her a dainty gift and
all were tucked away in a suit case
! that was presented to her In a most
| unique manner while the assembled
j friends drank to her good health in
sparkling punch and showered her
I with good wishes.
I Certainly Miss Corbett can appreci
ate the quotation:
“It Is a good thing to be rich and
it is a good thing to be strong, but
it is a better thing to be beloved
of many friends.” ,

Articles Needed In Navy—
The men of the United States navy
could gladly use certain articles of
comfort which are not supplied by the
government. These are principally
knitted articles to keep ‘them warm
during severe weather and when en
gaged in exposed work 1n small boats,
sue has pfccket duty, mine laying, sub
marine service, patrol boat service, etc.,
says the Mobile Register.
In time of war, the value of these
articles is greatly accentuated. Peace
maneuvers in winter are held In warm
southern waters, but in time of war
there is no choice of time or place,
w'hlle work in small boats above de
scribed is greatly increased, and is fre
quently performed under conditions of
considerable hardship.
The -navy department has definitely
approved the furnishing of the follow
ing articles, if made according to its
specifications:
1. Slevdess jacket, gray wool,
2. Mittens, gray wool.
2. Muffler, blue or preferably gray
oowl.
4. Wristlets, gray wool,
5. Helmets, gray wool.
6. Arctic*.

The Uncle Remus Memorial Associa
tion Qf Atlanta, met on Tuesday at the
Wren's Nest, Mrs. A. McD. Wilson pre
siding. The home has recently been re

very attractive appearance—for which
much credit is due Mrs. Warren D.
White, chairman of the committee, also
to Friddell Brother*, for interest shown
and donation.
The meeting was devoted mostly to
business and, being registration day. it
was most fitting that Mrs. Charles
Newton Davis, a former Mobllian, who
was Miss Agnes Neville, and who is a
member of the association, be request
ed to read her own patriotic poem, en
titled, “To Thee—America, My Boy!”
which appeared in the morning-Consti
tution. At the conclusion, Mrs. Davis
was acclaimed the poet laureate of the
association and It was voted that the
poem be engraved, autographed and
framed and hung In the home of Joel
Chandler Harris.—Atlanta Constitu

Liberty Loan Bonds—
(It has been said that every dollar
put into the war by tho United States
will help to shorten it and thereby save
human life. The boys whir go to the
front are fighting- the battles of those
who stay at home. We who are safe
must make effort to save those who are
In danger. If you buy a Liberty bond
you will not lose your money and some
body’s Boy may not be lost because of
you. Buy today!)
If you buy a bond you ifmy save a boy
From death on a blood-soaked field,
Will you a%ve your money and send the
boy
Hla youth and hts Ufa to yield?
Each bond that la bought may save a
life
From pain and death that await,
Buy your bond today or the boy may go
And your help may come too late.
