HIS MAMMY SPEAKS
And was it eons past, or was it years ago, or was it yesterday
I bade him fond farewell?
To me it seems a vast eternity;
The long suspense, the deep uncertainty—
The few brief words that filtered through to me,
Saying that all was well.
And in my quiet hours, and at my work, and thru each
anxious day,
I prayed most constantly.
Bringing my heart aches to the throne of God;
Tho in my fancy, stark upon the sod
Of France, I saw him dead, and felt God’s chastening rod.
My puny, faltering faith seemed lost to me.
The flag of truce, the cease of thunderous guns, the Armis
tice—
I cried with very joy.
And from the mud of France, the shrapnel—
From trench and stench and whine of German shell,
From agonizing death—a living hell,
Back to my arms he came. My boy!
Five years have passed, Old Glory proudly waves o’er quiet
fields.
How sweet is peace.
The sleepless nights, the fearful lithargy—
The wakeful days, the silent agony,
That took their toll and sapped the life of me—
How sweet is peace.
But you, my country, you have broken faith with me and
mine.
(We prate of freedom’s sod)
Give him the liberty he saved to other land,
The brotherhood you promised when began
The conflict. Oh! Make Him a Man.
This is my prayer to you—and to my God.

Philadelphia—The members of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States, who recently met in this city,
listened to but did not fall for the
“sob-story” of the Southern Demo
cratic planters and manufacturers,
who told the gathering that the South
needs the colored workers who mi
grated North to .keep the world from
facing a shortage of cotton in 1924.
Of course the South needs them, but
not to pick cotton, and hopes for their
return before the national election,
especially those who migrated to
such states as New Jersey, Delaware,
Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, Indi
ana, Michigan and Illinois, where
their votes will help to swell Repub
lican majorities. The samfe old game

THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN-APPEAL
was played four years ago and many
Northern Democratic manufacturers
were induced to discharge colored
workers, and to keep them out of em
ployment, so that they would be
forced to leave cities in which they
were entitled to vote. It’s a great
game, but there’s a hole in each shell
and you can always tell just where
the “pea” is resting.
