1 met a seedy old major—a“ regular armv chap who thinks he knows it all. 11c is about as bow-legged as papa, so you know how funny he must look in uniform and officers hoots. Well. 1 saluted, and after I thought he was out of hearing distance I said to one of the boys with me, ‘‘Golly Moses! How docs he nrr get out of those boots?” Really, mamma, it is the hardest thing in the world to get the things off. I helped a lieutenant get his off once and I put my foot in his stomach and pulled and pulled and he kicked and kicked and I tugged and grunted for an hour, and the lieutenant wasn't even how-lcggcd, so no wonder I marveled how this fellow ever got out of his. But he heard me and the low-down thing sent me immediately to headquarters and there—I was assigned to K. I’, duty for the remainder of the week and “confined to barracks for three whole weeks! nd 1 had a date with that little blue-eved girl for Sunday night! And take it from me, K. 1 . duty isn’t much fun. picking up folks old cigarette boxes with some good-looking girls watching you and laughing at you; and j ccling potatoes for a cross old cook and cutting your finger with a jagged knife. And to think I’ll have to send one of the boys over to Alice’s and have him tell her I can’t come to see her for three weeks because I told the truth—I called an obviously bow-legged major bow-legged. Sometimes it’s not much fun I eing one of “Democracy’s Vanguard.’ As ever, your devoted son. Sammie. LT. S. A. f S — I he candy was fine. Tell Sis to make some more and be quick about it. Sara McCarty, ’IS. THE HEART OK THE HILLS Far away from the noisy city A wonderful country lies, Where the wind-flower swings And the oriole sings All day under azure skies. Tis a land of rest and beauty. And peace all this valley fills. There skies are blue And friends are true. Tis the happy heart of the hills. 1 long to dwell in this country; To rest by its rippling rills. To banish dull care. With all doubt and fear. There, in the heart of the hills. —Eva Quirk, T8.
