LETS HOLD THE LINE

By Norreys Jephaon (/Conor of the ■ /Vigilantes. We hold the line which stretches far, " From western town* to fields of France, . ,Where now our brave battalions are. Fighting to stop the Hun’s advance. ■We must not fall them in their nefed. We who: in factory or field, Are soldiers, too; we may not bleed; Should we, then, find excuse to yield. Because we pass in dreariness 3..'Our days, of In the summer sun Are hot, and worn with weariness? . ” If our line breaks, the foe has won. If we heed enemy alarms. Vain is the general’s vast design. And vain the soldier’s deed of arms. In freedom’s name, let's hold the line.
