You know me Ed, me and water is on Official Terms in public. Useful to put on fires, eh Ed? Well Ed, the pipes all frize up and we didn't have no water and the Missus raised an orful holler. She tried to holler at the Quartermasters but they wouldn't let her holler in their so she hollered at me. I guess she thot her hollering would thaw the pipes Qscarcastic Ed that's mej. I guess the Quarterrnastesr was so busy throwin slate into the cole, Ed, they didn't care anything about a few busted pipes. They gotta motto Ed which is Eels nay parserons Pa and means it can't be done. Pretty good eh, Ed? Sounds like you havin a little repartee with the Old Man. Well Ed, us Stoodents has a lot of work to do listenin to the instructors talks so I gess I'll have to stop now. Yures Until I. C'd. Bill. , x , 'taping a 1 f4.ii'1-ef JIM, W1 -HM.

Ja N! -- 1 Wa f 'Y N ' 'xv l-in fggtgia tx ,' 7 M51 24 nouarga ig zk THE DOUGHBOY Hail! thrice hail! the doughboy, He who takes and holds positions In the world's catastrophes, Leading the way where others follow, Facing fire and fusilade. Superman in time of strife, Marvel of courage and self sacrificeg Hail! the soldier, and the man- Magnanimous, courageous doughboy. Since time medieval-he it was, Marching as foot soldier of theCross, Following where'er the Knights did lead To victory-or destruction Too soon forgotten is the sacrifice made- By all living and silent heroes, When the canon's roar-and firing cease- Should sympathly wane in time of Peace? E'en on the battlefields again The flowers will grow And once more raise their heads In sweet communion--and silent prayer Over graves of the valiant dead. Let us from the flowers take A lesson, sweet and rare-and With the living keep in touch With whole hearted devotion, and care. Then hail! again, hail! the doughboy, He who takes and holds positions In conflict, strife and cataclysrn, Sacrificing life and all at his country's call, Illustrious, heroic Doughboy. 4 fl W we Imp L c f - 1 2 a J -72 X . - if S ' i 4' E vi 1 -A i . ! 9 K A 'al ,sa ,ir gg-- J l
