IN MEMORY RLEWIS THAYER
Farewell to our comrade
Our loved Lewis Thayer,
We miss your kind council,
And grip of your hand
But will cherish your memory
Til we meet over There,
Sleep on Noble Hero
Your battles are fought
Your marches are over \
And victory bought
Tho’ foot sore and weary,
You now are at rest.
We soon too shall slumber
Beneath the green sod ;
Awaiting the coming,
Of Jesus our Lord
To answer at trumpets last call
To march in review at the throne
of our God. —Colony Post 14.

Georgia Ya
The Georgia Yam will find a place in every household
if the Georgia marketing agencies will use proper dilligence
and some brains in placing its virtues before the American
public. Already well established in the fevor of tens of
thousands of the Northern boys who camped in Southern
Miltary Camps during the war, it is just necessary to re
vive the desire in the homes of those boys for the delicious
yams, which once were part of their army diet.
In their raw state, they are poor shippers, but cured
they will keep indefinitely—lt is this feature which will
make it possible to market them in the Northern Cities
