The Sword Of Bunker HiJL
He lay upon bis dying bed,
Hie eye was growing dim,
When with a feeble voice be call'd
His weeping son to him:
"Weep not my boy!" the vet'ran
said,
"I bow to beav'n's high will—
But quickly from yon antlers bring ^
The sword of Banker Hill."
Tbe sword was brought, the soldier's
eye ^
Lit with a sudden flame;
And as be grasped tba ancient blade.
He murmered Warren's name;
Then said,"My boy, I leave you gold-
But what is richer still,
I leave you, mark me, mark me now,
' The sword of Bunker Hill.
"'Twas on that dread, immortal day,
I dared, tbe Briton,s band,
A captain raised bis blade on me—
I tore it from his hand;
And while the glorious battle raged
It lightened freedom's will—
For, boy, tbe God of freedom blessed ]
Tbe sword of Hunker Hill.
"O, keep the sword!"— his accents
broke—
A smile—and he was dead—
His wrinkled hand still clasped the
blade
Upon tbat dying bed.
Tbe son remains; tbe sword remains-
Its glory growing still—
And twenty millions bless tbe sire
And swoiyt of Bunker Hill.

Soldiers To Be Soon Discharged
From Hospitals.   ^
Tbe Mich. Anti-tuberculosis Association, along with ether associations of
that kind tbe country over, is pror
testing against the acfciou of the War
Department ordering all tuberculous
soldiers wbo are not making satisfactory progress after twelve months
treatment discharged from hospital
and sent back to their families. This
order will mean tbat 46,000 patients
will be dumped upon tbs country at
a time wb&n every community is
straining itself to the utmost to find
accommodation for those tuberculous
cicizeu8 who need treatment.   -
There is no sanatorium room for
these discharged tuberculous soldiers.
Michigan wili get its full share of
tbem, but as it ia Michigan is |n dire
need of more sanatorium room. With
only some six hundred or seven hundred senatorium beds available in a
state that is credited witb 25,000 cases
of tuberoulosis, the addition of a considerable number of soldiers patients
who should be taken care of by tbe
war department in tbe government
1 institutions is not looked upon witb
any     amount   of favor.

Government ownership of railways
has already cost tbe people of the
United States nearly tbree billion
dollars, or about 1150 per family. The
railways collected in 1918 and 1949 au
average ef one billion dollars a year
more in freight and ^passenger rates
than in 1917. During tbe same two
years the deficit paid ont of tbe govt
ernment treasury was seven hundred
million dollars, wbicb was necessary
to make up to tbe railroads a net
rental equivalent to the average net
earning during tbe tbree year period
prior to government operation. As
compared witb 1915 the I'oss to the
't j people on these accounts during tbe
two yes£s was nearly five billion
dollars. But of coarse that does not
tell the wnole story. Increased freight
charges have contributed to increased
prices of every commodity carried by
rail. In addition to all this, tie, rail,
ballast and car renewals have been
reduced to tbe minimum, so tbat
there is a aeriooa car shortage in
many quarters, and the railways have
been hurried toward tbe junk pile.
In all the history of politics and industry there is no parallel for tbe
staggering waste and Inefficiency
wbicb bas accompanied government
operation of railways end is the inevitable
