WHY I WANT TO
FIGHT IN FRANCE
The following is a part of a let¬
ter recently published from tlie pen
of John M. Morris, which is a real
good expression from a fighting
American :
Owing to a slight physical defi¬
ciency, 1 was rejected for the army,
marine corps and the navy, but,
thanks to the nobility of Captain
Cooper, of the Seventh Engineer
ingRegiment Medical Corps, I am
permitted to don the honorable
uniform of my country and to do
service wherever needed.
How any man with a spark of
manhood in his breast, can fail to
respond to our President’s call to
fight Germany is to me inexplica¬
ble.
Germany has sunk our ships,
killing innocent men and women
helpless babies. German plotters
have destroyed our industrial
plants, thereby murdering hun¬
dreds of poor working people.
Germany’s heinous atrocities have
covered the face of Europe with
blood and tears, throwing the
mantle of shawe over the cheeks of
the devil. For one 1 am willing
to dispute with gun or sword
Germany’s hellish argument of
murderous force!
An honorable sense of gratitude
ought to make 11s willing to help
France to win this war against
Germany. When I think of that
grand Frenchman, Layfayette, who
left a young • wife and child, a
home of luxury, noble lords and
ladies, the splendor of a royal
court—he left all of tMis to come
across the -brond ocean to. fight for
a small colony of 3,000,000 farmers
and fisherman against England who
had more than 11,000,000 popula¬
tion; when I read of how lie spent
his own fortune to buy food, cloth¬
ing and supplies for the destitute
soldiers of the little colony who
were struggling heroically for in¬
dependence ; when I read his ardent
appeals to the French royalty for
soldiers and supplies to help the
poor but brave colony which after¬
ward became the United States of
America; when I read of how sup¬
plies, ships and more than 5,000
soldiers were sent to our succor;
when I read of the heroic sons of
France, Cochambeau, de Grasse,
d’Abouville, Viomesmil, who risk¬
ed their lives in a war for our
freedom—1 am ready, willing,
eager to show my gratitude by go¬
ing to the bloody fields, there to do
and, if necessary, to die for French
liberty.
A long, last, fond farewell to the
hundreds of friends whom I have
met and loved while a student and
teacher in in Georgia schools.
“Here’s sigh for those who love
me,
And a smile for those who hate;
Whatever skies above me,
Here’s a heart for any fate.”
I shall consider it an honor to be
buried among millions of brave
soldiers on a French battlefield
which lias been sanctified by their
heroic battles for human rights, 1
want tliis for my epitaph :
“We come into this world, all
naked and bare—
We go through this world filled
with joy and care—
We go out of this world to we
know not where ;
Rut if we’re good here we’ll be
happy there!”

“The patriotic response of the
South to the appeal for food and
feed stuffs to meet tfie crisis
brought about by the war is shown

“For the states of Virgina, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi,

A Message From The Red Cross.
t
IjVirs. BjplmonJ Tiffany•*.*«'! oHfarper’s writ¬
ten for the August issue
Bazar a very interesting article on
“A Message from the American
Red Cross to the Women of Amer¬
ica'’. She especially mentions (he
part that women of society are tak¬
ing in this great work, and also
tells ot the organization’s rapid
growth since the war began in
1 9 I 4 ’
Mrs. Tiffany explains very clearly
the different functions of the Red
Cross; for instance, this is what
she says about the Department of
Civilian Relief
“Perhaps it is not generally
known by persons not familiar
with the work that the lied Cross
has a Department of Civilian Re¬
lief, with which the Department
of Military Relief coordinates and
cooperates. In other words, the
Red Cross is responsible for relief
of all kinds for our own army and
navy and is cliastered to take care
not only of the sick and wounded
soldiers, but of all who need aid
of any sort. It is also required to
take care of and look after the de¬
pendent families, and children of
the members of the ^United States
Army and Navy, All* over the
country we are doing, civilian re¬
lief work.”
