THE BARTOW TRIEUNE-THE CAaT EKSVILLE NEWS, AUGUST 16,1917 feii drawn m n GET LOT FROM LEE Congressman Gordon has mail- I t and from Washington a letter to each ! of the four thousand men of the Sev- I enth Congressional District included |ln the first draft for service in the | United States army now being raised. The recipients of this letter cannot but be cheered upon receiving from .Mr. Lee evidence of his intense inter est in each and every one of his con stituents, and it will be deemed by those who have received these letters, as well as by all others who know of them having been sent, tha* it was thoughtful as well as evidence of the personal interest in those who are go ing to war. Mr Lee’s letter is as follows: Washington, D. C„ August 4, 1917. My Dear Friend: Our country has been forced into war by the cruel aggressions of an enemy who has violated our rights, murdered our citizens on the high seas, and is seeking to overturn the liberal governments of the world and deprive us of our heritage of liberty. The Selective Draft System was chosen as the means to rise an army to defend our rights. While there was some difference of opinion as to how the army should be raised—volunteer or selective draft —congress by a large majority chose the selective draft sys tem since it favors no individual, class or profession. It is now the law of the land and we as patriotic Amer icans should stand by our president and our country. I am thinking of the brave and splendid young men of my district who have been called to defend our country’s freedom and safety, and I write this letter to let you know that whether your services be on land or sea, guarding the Mexican border, or cu the battlefields of Europe, my best wishes and deepest concern for your welfare will always he with you. A grateful state and nation will applaud your bravery and courage in the part you take in this, the greatest of all wars. When away, your friends will often think of you and wish for you a brief absence and. a safe return to your home. Assuring you of my heartfelt good wishes always, I am, Your friend, GORDON LEE. THE RED CROSS. Under the very shadow of the cross of Calvary the ministrations of mercy and help to the wounded and dying were born. Born there, at that moment in the heart of a rough Roman sol dier, who, when he heard the cry wrung from the lips of the dying Christ, “I thirst,” ran and filled a sponge with a cooling drink and fixed it to the head of his soldier’s spear and held it up to the parched lips of Jesus. That was the first deed done under the sign of the Red Cross. That deed of mercy to the dying Christ has been multiplied uncounted times by the influence of the living Christ. Today on battlefields and in camps and hospitals the Red Cross brings re lief from suffering and new hope of life. It staunches the flowing of blood and hushes the groans of the wound ed. There are only two things in all this agony which make it bearable. One is the heroism with which men go forth to die under the flag of their country; the other is the service of men and women, who, forgetting dan ger, go forth to do deeds of mercy un der the sign of the Red Cross. A soldier falls tvounded upon the field. The tide of assault passes on and he is left alone and suffering. Af ter the hours pass he hears voices and he sees those who wear the Red Cross. It bears to him the message that the Red Cross on the door of his house bore to the Hebrew bondman in Egypt—a message of deliverance. It bears to him the message that speaks for all mankind from the cross of Christ —the assurance of release from suffering and death. —Rev. H. J.

As our "first ten thousand'’ sailed I out of harbor for their unknown port ! in France, so the published story goes, it was ‘ Dixie” that broke the tcare ness of the final moments and stirred the crowd to heart-ease and to cheers. First there was "Tipperary,” raised by a blithe young soldier voice as if I tc break the heavy portent of drama j tic understanding that threatened to overwhelm the waiting crowd. But ■•Tipperary” would not do. It was the marching song of English hoys too ! newly dead to he forgotten. It but art j ded to the strain. There was a silence, then a quiet ! note or two, with that breath-catching | pause that we know so well, then a i whirling uplift of quick melody, and the ship’s band had burst into the ringing strains of “Dixie!” It was that same "Dixie” that Lincoln proclaimed a national posses sion when he had it played by the government band in Washington on the fateful day of Lee’s surrender. It is loved by Americans, North and South. It now bids fair to encircle the earth. It was the South's battle song of the Sixties. It tells the story of heroic armies long ago dissolved, and of /% xr / f S. A \ I j Your your children[does not end with ___ your death. The Prudential; Monthly Income?

Yet it is not martial air. We do not stand to its strains, nor do we un cover when it is played. It is intimate and human, filled less with grandeur than with joy. It is more than a war song, it is the heart song of the south. It is our song of childhood and soft lullabies, of youth, and pride, and hap piness. It holds the perfume of mag nolia and of jessamine. It is tender with the sound of the south wind blowing through long moss. It is vi brant with the rustle of palmetto leaves, and sweet with the melody of s’ave voices singing in the cotton and the cane. In the heart of its lightness, it car ries the patriotism and sacrifice of splendid youth, the eternal youngness of our long-gone heroes. Its strains defy regret and grief. They bring to us, through many years, the suirit of a generation that held to the joy of life even in the midst of desolation and defeat. In their melody, the daunt less hope of such youth lives again. “Dixie” is the home song of a brave and lovely land. It holds no bitterness, it makes no plea. It goes straight from heart to heart.
