How .dear to tha heart of each gray-headed soldier
Are tho thoughts of the days when we still wore the blue,
While memory recalls every trial and danger
And scenes of tho past are brought back to his view.
Though long since discarding our iniii ed equipments,
There's ono thing a veteran most surely will note,
The first thing he sees on th form of a comrade
Is the little bronte button he wears on his cost.
CHORUS: V
The little brown button, tho sacred bronze button,
Tho Grand Army button, he wears on his coat
"How much did It eoett" aald a man to a soldier,
'.'That little brown button, yon wear on your coat?"
"Ten oenU in good money," he answers th stranger,
"And four years of marching and fighting to boot."
"The wealth of the world cannot purchase this emblem,
Except that the buyer once wore the brav blue,
And it shows to mankind the full marks of a hero,
A man who to honor and country was true.
Then let us be proud of the l'ttle bronze button
And wear It with spirit both loyal and bold;
Fraternally 'welcome each one who supports it,
With love In our heart for the comrades of old.
Each day musters out whole battalions of wearers
And soon will be missed the token so dear;
But millions to come will remember with honor
The men who'd the right that bronze button to wear.

UNCLE SAM NEEDS AUTOS
FOR WAR SAYS FLANDERS
When Uncle Sam goea to. war he will
go In a motor car. So declares President
"Walter K. Flanders of the MaVwell com
pany. Therefore. Mr. Flanders adds, a
big factor In American preparedness will
be our large eupply of motor. cars and
our ability to build more of them In
lre numbers on short notice.
Mr. Flanders points jut that there are
many spot on our coasta. available for
the landing of a hostile force, but acces
sible by railroad. An Invader might,
therefore mask his attack long enough
to beat our defending- force to one of
these points, thereby establishing a foot
hold. But there are no landing- places on
either Atlantic or Pacific coasts not
reached by the country roadsroads
which light, powerful cars like the Mas
well are able to travel handily the year
around, and at more than moderate
Breeds. Piovlnlona by which these points
can be guarded by great numbers of
motor care would be i.bvlnuulv nri .f

Auto Business in
Few Short Years
"It Is Intensely Interesting to oompare
the questions of motor enthusiasts who
are attending tha show this season with
tha questions asked W visitors of for
mer, years," remarked Jehn'N. Willys,
president of the Willys-Overland com
pany of Toledo,' O.. after overhearing the
remarks ' of several visitors to salesmen
In th Overland booth at the Grand Cen
tral palace. "
."As I .stood there listening a moment
ago I. could not help thinking of the tre
mendous change's which have, taken place
In the automobile Industry In a compara
tively short time, changes beneficial to
both, tho general public and the motor
car manufacturers.
-"It has-only been within the last year
or so that the purchase of an automobile
has been considered from the standpoint
of a business Investment.
"Big, heavy cars costing up In tha thou
sands of dollars were all that would formerly-
Interest people,, even of moderate
means, and as for those who could af
ford a high-priced . car, they would no
more think of driving anything else than
walking.
"A striking evtdenca of the trend of the
times Is shown In. two sales reported by
Overland dealers within the Isst few
weeks, in both' cases four-cylinder Over
lands were purchased by men to whom
price was a matter of little moment. On

"But th manufacturer . doing business
on a large production scale has been th

New Zealand War
Office Makes a Raid
on German Concern
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
WKUJNQTON. New Zealand. Dec.
10. In consequence of complaints by the
Auckland Chamber of Commerce that th
Deutsche Handel, und Plantagen Oesel
Ischaft, a German Pacific Island trading
firm with headquarters In Hamburg and
a large business In copra, was doing
business In Samoa and the Tonga Group,
the headquarters and four plantations of
the company In Samoa were lately raided
by the New Zealand a-overnment authori
ties, papers were seised and several Ger
mans were arrested. Subsequently Karl
Hanssen, the general manager, waa con
victed before a military court of evading
the censorship by mailing letters to Ger
many from San Francisco through th
connivance of sailing- vessels plying be
tween California and Samoa. Adolph
Eberhardt. manager of on ot th com
pany's largest cocoanut groves, was
found guilty of having- withheld from th
New Zealand military authorities docu
ments which had belonged to th German
Samoan government. Hannsen was sen
tenced to six months Imprisonment and
Internment until the end ot th war; and
Eberhardt wss sentenced to a fine of $160
and Internment!
The business hss been placed in the
hands of a receiver appointed by th
New Zealand government. By this ac
tion all German business activity in th
South Pacific unless It be under British
scrutiny ceases until peace has been
concluded.
County Treausurer Ure Is selling at
th very low cost of $3 a handsome
license plate In dark blue and white. The
motorist ho purchases one of , these
classy tags and attaches on his csr will
be immune from further dunning for one

llon of one of these plates Inspires the
owner with a deep sense of pride In being
one of th first to show that good will
spirit, snd hearty co-operation In working
for better roads. County Treasurer Ure
says that there will be a bargain price on
these plates at any time during lri. so
you motorist who csper through half the
year with last season's colors on, might
Just as welt buy terly as late, frr the

tha change In the color this year Is going

"All we need n the club Is a little

Valae of Tosrlat Traffic.
"I believe the value of this automobile
tourist traffic through a city is areatlv
over-exaggerated," said a prom nent busi
ness man the other day when approached
for membership in the club.
Imagine fifty automobiles, each with
four passengers, coming Into Omaha all
at one, and parading up Farnam street.
It would arouse Interest, wouldn't it?
And If half of those passengers drove up
ta a local hotel and took rooms, the
average business man would prick up his
ears and smell business.
Many a day last summer there were
fifty and ovar machines came Into Omaha,
and fully half stop off at Omaha. Auto
mobile traffic slips In and out of town
without much notice. But If a special
train cam In over any of the railroads,
th valua of the business from a local
standpoint would be readily apparent.
The club la helping In no small degree
to bring traffic through Omaha, and
Omaha motorists should fall In line and
get behind the club.
When tke Rosea nioom Again.
It's a long, long way to that first rosa
in tha spring, but when It does bloom,
there'e going to be a rush of motorists to
get In on the good things given by the

Storage Batteries
Need Care in Winter
Many car owners are Ignorant of the
fact that a storage battery needs speclat
attention In winter, even though he goes
through the unplessant experience of
cranking his motor by hand on a cold
morning because his selfstarter won't
work.
The storage battery manufacturers
realise that Ignorance on the part of the
motoring public !s responsible for neg
lect of batteries In winter and one of
them the Wlllard Storage Battery com
pany, whose batteries are used on over
70n,0no motor cars has given general in
structions to all of Its branches and
service stations to explain the Importance
of winter care of batteries to their cus
tomers. If a man stores his ear in winter, either
on account of extreme cold or In more
southerly latitudes, on account of bad
roads, he cannot leave the battery with
out attention all winter. It should be
kept fully charged and full of distilled
water Jut as though In use. This pro
tects the battery against freeslng In cold
timates and Insures Its coming out in
he spring in first class condlton.

Only three hours and forty-five minutes

Mr. Auerswald states that the time for
the entire, trip could have been made in
eight hours but for the extremely bad

Myriads of winged travelers, forsaking
their summer nests and tum'ng south

to give up their lives within tha next
month or two because men, In looking

and monument builders correct their mis
take. .
. Every fall the lighthouses scattered
along the Atlantlo coast lure thousand
ot migrating birds to their death. Some
times th birds dash themselves against
th sides of th tall towers. Others
flutter around In the glare of the light
until they fall exhausted Into th sea
Monuments exact a similar toll. Th
lighted torch on th statu of Liberty In
New Tork harbor has been responsible
for thousands of bird Uvea It Is related
that on one morning soon after the statue
waa erected l.tOO dead blrda were picked
up at Its base. " As Ions as .the torch
was kept lighted the sacrifice of bird
life waa kept up. '

of birds were strewn around Its . base.
Th dry hall tower In Philadelphia has
been responsible for similar slaughter.

to say, but tragedy is better. Who roaming through the cotton fields of Dixie land would dream that the soft, silky
cotton plant could grow anything from which to make death dealing explosives? And yet so it is. The war lords'
maw swallows all it can get and still cries for more result: Up goes the price of cotton. Luckily we got in right,
so that prices for this sale will rule much lower than we are likely to be able to make later.
