UNIQUE DESIGNATION
FOR SOLDIER SOCIETY
WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
IN GERMANY, July 24 (Correspon
dence of Associated Press).—The
Buck Private Society organized at
Montabaur by members of the First
division, announced recently that
headquarters in the United States
would be opened in Chicago late in
August, with Edward M. McGuire, na
tional field representative, in charge.
Branches are to be established in
every state in the Union, according
to present plans.
Private Paul F. Collins, battery D,
6th field artillery, of Los Angeles, is
president of the society, which has
several thousand members. All
headquarters of the society in the
different states will be known tech
nically as “dugouts.” A women’s
auxiliary is also planned, which will
include in its membership all women
who served with the American expe
ditionary force, such as welfare work
ers, telephone operators and nurses.
As its platform the society has
adopted these planks: “Broader ed
ucational work; cleaner politics;
compulsory schooling for all boys
under sixteen years of age; to make
bigger and better Americans and to
interest ourselves in industry, com
merce and labor.”
The society is characterized us a
“great monument for the heroic dead
of the A. E. F.,” and it is planned to
make fathers and mothers of men
who died in action in France honor
ary members. One of the duties of
members of the society will be to
make an annual visit to the homes of
soldiers who died on the the battle
fields of the world w'ar.
Membership in the society is
restricted to privates.
CLASHES TAKE PLACE
IN OCCUPIED GERMANY
COBLENZ, July 27 (Correspon
dence of Associated Press).—Thruout
* Germany there has been a renewal
recently of clashes between troops
of Gustav Noske, secretary for mili
, tary affairs, and civilians, but just
what has caused the disturbances is
not clear in dispatches published in
German newspapers. American offi
cers, however, believe it quite possi
ble that the manifestations are due
to the food shortage, the relocation
V Noske troops and the subsequent
appearance of strange troops in many
cities.
In Celle, Hanover, there has been
trouble for more than a week, at
times the manifestations amounting
almost to riots over the appearance
of a Jaeger battalion which arrived
recently from the eastern front. The
citizens contended that this battalion
had eaten too much of the city’s food
supply. In Heilbronn, Wuerttem
burg, individual soldiers have been
attacked and beaten by civilians at
night and their insignia stolen. IMs
f turbances between Insterburg, West
Prussia, citizens and soldiers of the
First Jaeger zu Pferde regiment has
reached such a state that the civil
authorities have made demands upon
the government that the troops be
moved to another district.
From information in the hands of
the officers at headquarters of the
American forces in Germany it is
believed that, while the majority ot
the German people are now loyally
supporting the government troops,
there is an energetic minority which
has been increasing in bitterness re
■ cently against the Noske troops
1 wherever they have appeared in
I various parts of Germany.
“THE WAITING TIME.”
There are days of deepest sorrow
In the seasons of our life;
There are wild, despairing moments,
There are hours of moral strife.
There are times stormy anguish,
^ When the tears>Tefuse to fall,
But the “waiting-time, my loved ones
Is the hardest time of all.
Youth and age are oft' impatient,
Seeking things beyond their reach;
And the heart grows sick wiht hoping
Ere it learns what life can teach.
For, before the fruit be gathered,
We must see the blossoms fall,
And “tbfe waiting-time,” my loved ones
Is tb4 hardest time of all.
Bovim/ once and loving ever,
It if sad to watch for years
For 'the light whose fitful shining
Makes a rainbow of our tears.
Vr is sad to count from morning,
1 All the hours to even fall;
bh the “waiting-time,” my loved ones,
r- Is the hardest time of all.
.d We can bear the heat of conflict,
Though the sudden crushing blow,
Beating back our gathered forces,
For a moment lays us low.
We may rise again beneath it,
Noaflthe weaker for our fall—
^ But the “waiting-time,” my loved ones,
Is the hardest time of all.
By Albert Clinken beard.

;..—i;
Four ducks on a pond,
A green bank beyond,
A blue sky of spring,
White clouds on the wing—
What a little thing
To remember for years—
To remember with tears.
• • • •
Ever feel like that?
• • • •
Then you’ll be glad the poet lived
who wrote these simple verses.
William Allingham—an Irishman.
• • • •
(Yes, God loves the Irish).
But, say, did you ever notice.
It’s the little things that stick in
your memory?
That time Bill borrowed your last
chew.
Or the time the white mule kicked
you.
Bill’s been dead twenty years.
But the white mule’s still kicking,
so far as you know.
• • • •
And that’s the way it goes.
You can always figure on a man.
Especially if lie’s an old trail mate.
But livestock and liquor were al
ways problematical.
And always will be, wje guess.
Well, anyw'ay, let’s hope the Re
cording Angel.
• • • •
Has a memory like yours and mine.
• • • •
’Cause then he’ll get to thinking
about the time.
• • • •
When you gave Bill your LAST
chew.
• • • •
(It was bitter cold, and you had no
fire.)
• • •
And as he remembers that*little
thing.
, v>
(With tears, as the poet says).
• • • •
He’ll forget, perhaps, the big, black
things against you.
• • • •
In the Book of Life.
Such as the woman in Dawson.
And the shooting at Fairbanks.
And he’ll say to himself.
• • • •
“He give Bill his LAST chew.
• • • •
“And Bill’s been waiting a long
time.
• • • •
“To see his old pal.
• • • •
“So I guess he can come in.”
And the angel with the flaming
sword.
Will pass through the gate.
• • •
To where Bill is waiting.
• • •
For you.
