Well, we’re mixed up in the war and we’re going the limit
until we win out. Our hoys are oing to France—we’ll be fight
ing in the trenches, in the air and on the sea. Hut what are we
going to do about it at Home here?
Are we going to break down and sob about it or we going
to buck up and look for the silver lining in the dark cloud.
Over in France, the farmer is digging and hoeing ou tin
fields while stray shells occasionally burst near him. but he does
ont pay any attention to them—just keps ou a-digging and
a-hoeing.
Freinds, dont let the old farmer in France have anything
on us—let’s just keep on digging and hoeing no matter what
happens; that’s the best thing for the soul and business that I
know of.
