Planned.
The observance of Flag day, an
anniversary established by the
Penevolent and Protective Order of
, Elks, will be held by the Omaha
lodge of that , organization Sunday
night. June 16, at 7 o'clock, !n Hans
com park. Either Dr. F. W, Gunsau-
1ns, Chicago or Lafayette Young,
Des Moines, will be . the principal
speaker at the exercises.
The observance of Flag day in
Omaha has annually attracted na
tional attention. Especially was this
true of the big observance in 1916.
Motion pictures of the event were
shown thoughout the United States,
reflecting the greatest credit for
patriotism not only of the Elks lodge
but also of the entire city.
Flag day this year has a deeper
significance for the Elks than ever
before, by reason of the great num
bers now serving in the world war.
The Omaha lodge has 160 stars on
its service flag and one gold star.
Many of its members are officers,
among them are two brigadier gen
erals, a major general, .six colonels,
three lieutenant colonels and seven
majors. HoldmgMhe exercises this
ear at night is an innovation, and
there will be no parade.
The exercises will be featured by
a big patriotic program. The com
mittee in charge is receiving the co
operation of Major John G. Maher,
quartermaster's depot, Omaha a
member of the Lincoln lodge of Elks,
and through him officers at Fort
Omaha, Fort Crook, quartermaster's
depot and army buglers will be on
the program. The Council Bluffs
Elks quartette will furnish the vocal
music. The Grand Army veterans,
the Woman s Relief corps, bpanish
war veterans, high school cadets and
boy scouts will be invited to attend
in uniform. Special invitation is ex
fended to families which have mem
bers in the service of the" United
States.

Miss Miller will marry Lieutenant
George Mclntyre who is at present
stationed in Washington. Miss Enily
Rough was married to Mr. Guy Mcl

CHAPTER XVII.
Lunch Time. . ,
It was getting late for meii who
had had so early a breakfast as we
had had to make to get started in
good time. And just as I was begin
ning to feel hungry odd, it seemed
to me, that such a thing as lunch
should stay, in my mind in such sur
roundings and when so many vastly
more important things weje afoot!
the major looked at his wrist watch.
"By jovel" he said, "lunch time!
Gentlemen, you'll accept such hospi
tality as we can offer you at our of
ficers' mess?"
There wasn't any question about ac
ceptance! We all said we were de
lighted, and we meant it. I looked
around for a hut or some such place,
or even for a tent, and, seeing nothing
of the sort, wondered where we might
be going to eat. I soon found out.
The major led the way underground.
into a dugout. 1 his was the mess. It
was hard by the guns, and in a hole
that had been cut out quite literally.
Here there was a certain degree of
safety. In these dugouts every phase
of the battery's life except the actual
serving of the guns went on. Officers
and men alike ate and slept in them.
Ihey were much snugger within
than you might fancy. A lot of the
men had given homelike touches to
their habitations. Pictures cut from
the illustrated papers at home, which
are such, prime favorites with all the
Tommies, made up a large part of tfie
decprative scheme. Pictures of act
resses predominated; the Tommies
didn't go in for war pictures. Indeed,
there is little disposition to hammer
the war home at you in a dugout.
The men don't talk about, it or think
about it, save as they must; you hear
less talk about the war along the
front than you do at home. I heard
a story at Vimy Ridge of a Tommy
who had come back to the trenches
after seeing Blighty for the first time
in months.
"Hello, Bill," said one of his mates.
Back again, are you? How's things
in Klightyr
"Oh, all right," said Bill.
Then he looked around. He pricked
his ears as a shell whined above him
And he took out his pipe and stuffed
it full of tobacco, and lighted it, and
sat back. He sighed in the deepest
content as the smoke began to curl
upward. 1
"Bli'me, Bill I'd say, to look at
you, you was glad, to be back here!"
said his mate, astonished.
"Well, I ain't so sorry, and that's
a fact," said Bill. "I tell you how it
is, Alf, Back there in Blighty they
don't talk nothing but this bloody
war. I'm fair fed up with it, that I
am! I'm glad to be back here, where
I don't have to 'ear about the war
'every bleedin' minute!"
That story sounds far-fetched to
you, perhaps, but it isn't. War talk
is shop talk to the men who are fight
ing it and winning it, and it is per
fectly true and perfectly reasonable,
too, that they like to get away from
it when they can, just as any man
likes to get away from the thought
of his business or his work when he
isn't at the office or the factory or the
shop.
Captain Godfrey explained to me,
as we went into the mess hall for
lunch, that the dugouts were really
pretty safe. Of course there were
dangers where are there not along
that strip of land that runs from the
North sea to Switzerland in France
and Belgium?
"A direct hit from a big enough
shell would bury us all," he said. "But
that's not likely the chances are all
against it. And, even then, we'd have
a chance. I've seen men dug out alive
from a hole like this after a shell from
one of their biggest howitzers had
landed square upon it.
But I had no anxiety to form part
of an experiment to prove the truth
or the falsity of that suggestion. I
was glad to know that the chances of
a shell's coming along were pretty
slim.
Conditions were primitive at that
mess. The refinements of life were
lacking, to be sure but who cared?
Certainly the hungry members of the
Reverend Harry Lauder, M. P., Jour
did not! We ate from a rough deal
table, sitting on rude benches that had
a decidedly home-made look. But
we had music with pur meals, just
like the folks in London at the Savoy
or in New York at Sherry's! It was
the incessant thunder of the guns that
served as the musical accompaniment
of our lunch, and I was already trow
ing to love that music. I could begin
now to distinguish degrees of sound
and modulations of all sorts in the
mighty diapason of the cannon. It
was as if a conductor were leading
an orchestra, and as if it responded
instantly to every suggestion of his
baton.
There was not much variety to the
food, but there was plenty of it, and"
it was good. There was bully beef,
of course; that is the real staff of life
for the British army. And there were
potatoes, in plentiful supply, and
bread and butter, and tea thir ic.
always tea where Tommy or his of
ficers are about! There was a lack
of tableware; a dainty soul might not
have liked the thought of spreading
his butter on' his bread with his
thumb, as we had to do. Bit I was
too hungry to be fastidious myself.
Because the mess had rusts there
Was a Special dish in nnr hnnnr fine
of the men had gone over at consid
erable risk of his life, as I learned
later to the heap of stone and dust
that had once been the village of Giv
enchy. There he had found a lot of
gooseberries.. The French call them
grossets. as we in Scotland An tn
although the pronunciation of the
word is different in the two languages,
of course. There had been gardens
around the houses of Givenchy once,
before the place had been made into a
desert of rubble and brick dust. And,
somehow, life had survived in those
bruised and battered gardens, and the
delicious mess of gooseberries that
we had for dessert stood as proof
The meal was seasoned bv ennd
talk. I love to hear the vounar British
officers talk. It is a liberal education
They have grown so wise, those boys!
Those of them who come back when
the war is over will have the world at
their feet, indeed. Nothing will be
able to stop them or to check them '
their rise. They have learned everj
great lesson that a man must learn if i
he is to succeed in the affairs of life.
Self control is theirs, and an infinite
patience, and a dogged determination
that refuses to admit that there are
any things that a man cannot do if
he only makes up his mind that he
must and will do them. For the
British army has accomplished the im
possible, time after time; it has done
things that men knew could not be
done.
And so we sat and talked, as we
smoked, after the meal, until the ma
jor rose, at last, and invited me to
walk around the battery again with
hinv I could ask Questions now. hav
ing seen the men at work, and he ex
plained many things I wanted to
kn6w and which Fritz would like
to know, too, to this day! But above
all I was fascinated by the work of
the gunners. 1 kept trying, in my
mind's eye, to follow the course of
the shells that were dispatched so
calmly upon their errands of destruc
tion. My imigination played with the
thought of what they were doing at
the other end of their swift voyage
through the air. I pictured the havoc
that must be wrought when one made
a clean hit.
And, suddenly, I was swept by that
same almost irresistible desire to :t
fighting myself that had come over me
when 1 had seen the other battery. If
I could only play my part! If I could
fire even a single shot if I, with my
own hands, could do that much
against those who had killed my boy!
And then, lncreduously, I heard the
words in my ear. It was the major.
Would you like to try a shot,
Harrry? he asked me.
Would I? I stared at him.
couldn't believe my ears. It was as if
he had read my thoughts. I gasped
out some sort of an affirmative. My
blood was boiling at the very thought,
and the sweat started from my pores.
"All right nothing easier 1" said
the major, smiling. 'I had an idea
vou were wanting to take a hand,
Harry."
He led me toward one of the guns,
where the sweating crew was spec
ially active, as it seemed to me. They
grinned at me as they saw me coming.
"Here's old Harry Lauder come to
take a crack at them himself," I
heard one man say to another.
"Good for him! The more the mer
rier!" answered his mate. He was an
American would ye no know it from
his speech?
I was trembling with eagerness. I
wondered if my shot would tell- I
tried to visualize its consequences. It
might strike some vital spot. It might
kill some man whose life was of the
utmost value to the enemy. It might
it might do anything! And I knew
that my shot would be watched; Nor-
mabell, sitting up there on the Pimple
in his little observatory, would watch
it, as he did all of that battery's shots.
Would he make a report?
Everything was made ready. The
gun recoiled from the previous shot;
swiftly it was swabbed out. A new
shell was handed up; I looked it over
tenderly. That was my shell! I
watched the men as they placed it and
saw it disappear with a jerk. Then
came the swift sighting of the gun,
the amost imperceptible corrections
of elevation and position-
They showed me my place. After
all, it was the simplest of matters to
fire even the bi&gest of guns. I had
but to pull a lever. All morning I
had been watching men do that. I
knew it was but a perfunctory act.
But I could not feel that! I was
thrilled and excited as I had never
been in all my life before.
AH ready! Fire!"
The order rang in my ears. And I
nulled the lever, as hard as I could-
The great gun sprang into life as I
moved the lever. I heard the roar
of the explosion, and it seemed to me
that it was a louder bark than any
gun 1 had heard had given! It was
not, of course, and so, down in my
heart, I knew. There was no shade of
variation between that shot and all
the others that had been fired. But it
pleased me to think so it pleases me.
sometimes, to think so even now.
Just as it pleases me to think that that
long snouted engine of war propelled
that shell, under my guiding hand,
with unwonted accuracy and effective
ness! Perhaps I was childish, to feel
as I did; indeed, I have no doubt that
that was so. But I dinna care!
There was no report by telephone
from Normabell about that particular
shot; I hung about a while, by tne
telephone listeners, hoping one would
come. And it disapointed me that no
attention was paid to that shot.
"Probably simply means it went
home," said Godfrey "A shot that
acts just as it should doesn't get re
ported." But I was disappointed, just the
same. And yet the sensation is one
I shall never forget, and I shall never
cease to be glad that the major gave
me my chance. The most thrilling
moment was that of the recoil of the
great gun. I felt exactly as one does
when one dives into deep water from
a considerable height.
"Good work, Harry!" said the ma
jor, warmly, when I had stepped
down. "I'll wager you wiped out a
bit of the German trenches with that
shot! I think I'll draft you and keep
you here as a gunner!"
And the officers and men all spoke
in the same way, smiling as they did
so. But I hae me doots! I'd like to
think I did real damage with my one
shot, but I m afraid my shell was
just one of those that turned up a bit
of dirt and made one of those small
grown eruptions I had seen rising on
all sides along the German lines as I
had sat and smoked my pipe with
Normabell earlier in the day.
"Well, anyway," I said, exultingly,
"that's that! I hope I got two for my
one, at least!"
But my exultation did not last long.
I reflected upon the inscrutability of
war and of this deadly fighting that
was going on all about me. How
casual a matter was this sending out
of a shell that could, in a flash of
time, obliterate all that lived in a wide
circle about where it chanced to
strike! The pulling of a lever that
was all that I had done! And at any
moment a shell some German gun
ner had sent winging its way through
the air in precisely that same, casual
fashion might come tearing into this
quiet nook, guided by some chance,
lucky for him. and wipe out the major,
and all the pleasant boys with whom
I had broken bread just now, and the
sweating gunners who had cheered
me on as I fired my shot!
I was to give a concert for this
battery, and I felt that it was time.
now, for it to begin- I could see, too,
that the men were growing a bit im
patient. And so 1 said that 1 was
ready.
"Then come along to our theater,"
said the, major, and grinned at my
look of astonishment. ,
"Oh. we've got a real amphitheater
for you, such as the Greeks used for
the tragedies of Sophocles!" he said.
"There it is!"
He had not stretched the truth. It
was a superb theater a great, crater
like hole in the ground. Certainly it
was as well ventilated a show house
as you could hope for, and I found.
when the time came, that the actotis
tics were splendid. I went down into
the middle of the hole, with Hogge
and Adam, who had become part of
my company, and the soldiers
grouped themselves about its rim.

President.
Nothing would please the Kaiser
more than to see American busi
ness lag. You can show that you
are loyal to the highest degree
by keeping the wheels humming, t
by keeping supplies steadily mov
ing to the front.
Here is your opportunity for patriotic service, young man,
young woman with the energy of youth in your veins and the
consciousness of true patriotism in your heart. You can help
to win this war by serving in civil warfare at home in the business
battle where every effort is a direct blow aimed at our common
enemy.
You help yourself, too, by doing it, for working condi
tions are better now than ever, wages are of the best and oppor
tunities for rapid advancement are without equal.
Then, while your country needs your service at home, begin
your commercial training, prepare to help in the battle of big
business.
Boyles College provides the instruction that will enable you
to earn more and be worth more to your country. Send for cata
