O I GeMmBLAcKt19 . 17 -.-Y 14 - ' 'Y Gur Contribution to the Cause of Democracy. M. C. H. S. looks with pride upon her returning soldiers and sailors. It is they who have made the greatest contribution. Nor shall We ever forget those vvho have made the supreme sacrifice. Our Service Flag complete bears 286 stars, seven of which appear in gold. We are also proud of the part performed by the students toward the vvin- ning of the war. They responded nobly and willingly to every call for loans to the government or contributions to every worthy fund. Last year We gave up the chapel hour for the folding of tape bandages. A complete idea as to the ex- tent of our part in the World war may be seen by a glance at our tabulated report of War Work Activities. 'Our boys have been scattered far and Wide in all branches of the service. Wherever there is a branch of the American service there M. C. H. S. is Well represented. A good number of our boys have returned and We are anxiously looking forward to the speedy and safe return of all that are still in the service. AMEND, HENRY, S. A. T. C., University of Kansas.

K i 32, X 1 l X X l To Qur Soldiers and Sailors and All A CG1enn Dewlin fell in the Argonne battle September 28, 1918. A comrade bending over him got this last message: Tell my mother I was not afraid to die. J I II To every lad who gave his life. Soldier rest, thy battle endedg Now thy form with earth be blenrdedg Hallowed region Where thy ashes lie. Every breeze that sweeps the ocean Tells the source of thy devotion: Mother, I was not afraid to die. To every lad who offered his life. Soldier pause, nor rush to battleg Gone the shock, and roar, and rattle: Let the smoke be lifted by and by. May your courage fail you never And this feeling guide you ever: Mother, I was not afraid to die. 9
