LIFE IN TRENCH WILL DEVELOP AMERICAN BOYS

"OUR CARRIER BOYS"

Broad Worldly View Will Replace Narrowness, Says Smithsonian Expert.

WASHINGTON', March 8. How will experience In the trenches affect the! million fiKhtlns soldiers? j What Indelible mark will be loft

" un.ui ailCl LiiIl 1CIU1U 11U1U IU.K3 battle front? Some interesting answers were given by a famous government scientist. Dr. II. Hodllcka. head of tho division of physical anthropology of the Smithsonian institution, to the United Press. "I am convinced that the trench experience will be of the greatest value to the American boys when they retur nto their peaceful homes," Dr. HodJicka said. "A broad worldly point of view will take the place of the narrow provincialism. Develop Sense of Pride "The enormous amount of concentratlve power demanded of the soldiers during a period of constant trench flghing will develop In the careless, easy going boys a sense of pride and confidence that will stand in good stead for them in commercial and industrial life. "I can say definitely that their fighting experience will make them highly efficient producers. They will apply themselves with Increased vigor and concentration than heretofore. Modern trench fighting, which is mainly h test of resistance and concentration, is developing a class of men of the highest physical type. No Shattering of Nerves "It has been said that the boys will return from the tiring line shattered In nerve, their faces beclouded. Nothing is further from the truth. Studies have shown that arduous trench life only affect those subject to hereditary irregularities. The normal men, on I ho other hand, by undergoing constant strain, with periods of furloughs in the rear, are developed into vigorous, responsible men. "And whtn these men march back to their homes they will briug with them a renewed powe r that will be an enormous asset to America's industrial efficiency."

The following poem, "Our Carrier Boys" was written by Lawrence A. Handley, who read It at the dinner given Palladium carriers Thursday night. Did you ever stop to wonder, stop to ponder and to think How the whole world waits upon a certain bunch; How we feel the whole creation has been put upon the blink, How we're happy If we have a certain "hunch." Did you ever pace the carpet while you're cussing like a Turk, And you feel there's nothing doing Quite worth while. Did you ever sit down quiet and then start up with a jerk. And the corners of your mouth begin to smile. Did you ever go out hunting near your little old front door For a thing you're scared to death you may not find

Did you ever come back dippy and let out an awful roar While your family thinks you sure have lost your mind? Now the thing that causes cussing and a disappointment sore, Makes you think the world is made of greenest cheese, Is to find your evening paper Isn't lying at your door When you're all prepared to spend an hour at ease. And you never Btop to ponder o'er the cause that makes it late, You just want to hang the boy that's on the job, When it may be bum reporters, or a missing box of plate, Or It may have been the thunder-writing slob. Or they may have pied a form when the lockup was complete. Or a wrench had fallen smack into the press, But you only stand and holler, cuss, and air your peevish bleat, ( 'Bout the boy you ought to love and always bless. For he never lets the weather cause his patrons to be missed And he faces snow and rain and fiercest heat. He is always in a hurry, and he-leaves his girl unkissed Just because he doesn't want to hear your bleat. Do you always send him smiling from your lowly kitchen door With the money be has earned and has to seek, Or are you the noisy slacker, or the self-excusing bore Who is going to have the change for him next week. There's a moral, take It kindly, for it's meant to be a help For the disappointment that we always feel When our papers fail to reach us, and we want to swear and yelp, And delight to have the neighbors hear us squeal. Always try to put yourself in the other fellow's place, Try to have a little charity as well, Just apply the Golden Rule and a happy, smiling face. And you'll surely put to flight a lot of hell. L. A. Handley.
