- To an old Sweetheart.
BY ALBERT 0. EGGE, A. F. C.,
(Personnel Detachment.) g
Didst thou know the ceaseless longing,
That fills this heart of mine—
How these eyes are ever. craving
The lovelight, sweet, in thine. S
' :
Dids’t thou know the deep desire,
That etirs within my breast,
With an ever-conscious yearning,
That will not be represt,
Didst theu know of my vain. wandering,
Life’s desert thru for this—
Just to reach with parched lips burning,
The oasis of thy kiss.
Then I'm sure thou'dst hear my pleading,
Thou’dst come to me agein-
And a prayer’d be answered, dearest,
A soul would sigh amen. N

-~ CHAPLAIN TAKES BRIDE.
Straw Ride, Supper for 200 and
Dance Mark Festivities.
As he was married Monday, Easter
was a big day for Chaplain Robert
J. Wolf of N block, the convalescent
center. A ceremony with a ring
bearer, a straw ride for seventy girls
with soldier partners, a supper for
200 and a dance at the main Knights
of Columbus building were some of
the things which were crowded into
the chaplain’'s big day.
Mrs. Rachel Morgan, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Lightner of Har
risburg, Pa., was the bride. The cere
mony was performed in N-24, the so
cial hall maintained by the chaplain,
the seérvices being conducted by for
mer Chaplain George. Fleck, now of
Govans, Baltimore. Misges Clara
Wolf, Sabra Clark and Martha Cres
well were the maid of honor and
bridesmaids. Miss Katherine Wolf,
niece of the groom, was flower girl.
Lieut. James Reced was best
man, while his son, James Reed, jr.,
was ring bearer. Ushers were Lieuts.
Worrel, Barnes, Krauss and Sherman..
After the dance, attended by sev
eral hundred, somebody punctured
the tires of the motorcycle in which
the bride and groom were to go away,
but Sdcretary Bush of the “K. of C.”
stole a march on the fun-makers and
repaired the trouble before the de
parture of the couple was planned.

Col. Hobbs Hopes to Send First
1,000 to France at a Very
Early Date. ;
-
By this time next week it is be
lieved that Col. Hobbs, in charge of
replacement troops for France, will
have his first thousand recruits on
their way to the front, or ready to
sail,
The middle of May probably will
find these men in dermafiy taking the
places of regulars whose terms have
expired or who are incapacitated for
fleld service.
These lads are right on the job in
every respect. Some of them have
served before and have come back for
anoth_er taste of Army life. Gener
ally, however, the new soldiers are
young boys who have been won to
the soldier life by the tales of heroism
which have come to them from their
older brothers. e
Overseas Man in Charge.
Col. Hobbs is a very capablbe officer,
who has seen a year's service over
3eas n}d knows the requirements of
men for the foreign fleld.
All men who wish to go to the Phil
ippines are being sent to SamsFran
cisco. THos® who apply for Panama
service ~are being sent to another
camp so that all those desiring French
service are being sent to Meade, where
about 2,000 have gathered.
Recrpiting for home ‘'service is going
on at a merty clip. Maj. Clenréns and
his men in Baltimore are making a
great record for the 17th Infdntry.
They have already sent about 200 men
here for the regiment and are staying
in Baltimore one week longer than
they expected. Probably another trip.
will be arranged to another city.
Col. Charles R. Noyes of the 17th is
especially gratified at Maj. Clemens'
efforts and hopes to have his regiment
on a working basls very soon.

COHEN’S FAMOUS SPRINT.

Says a Fellow Must Run to Make
. Good in Army.
-Abe Cohen has it right. If a fellow
wants to make good in this man’s
Army he’'s got to run for his money!
Lieut. Alexander Shaw, Company -E,
17th Infantry, declares that Cohen is
right, and that he is one of the best
“440” men he ever saw.
When Cohen came to join the Army
a day or so ago he was told. by the
lieutenant to “right face.” It sounded
like “left face” to Abe, so he acted ac
cordingly. The officer thought there
was something wrong with the
rookie’s think tank, so he thought he
would put him through the paces.
These are some of thé paces Abie
did. He was told to ‘“column right,”
and he did the “right about face.” He
was orgered to “column left,” and he
did the “left about face.” By this
time the officer and the recruit were
separated by.a very ldng distance,
and the distance grew longer because
Abie thoight that he was told to do
“double time.”
Lieut. Shaw gave.chase. When he
caught up some half mile away, Abie
was holding his sides as he lay on
the ground.. :
. “I can’t run any longer, lieutenant,”
he said, with & sob and 4. sigh.
