When ordered to. the front he writes last to her. When letters come homer her looks first 'for hers. When he returns from war, hers Is the first face he Beeks. If in battle he faces death? it la her features that flash upon him. If he has time to remembertls home, it is her form that means home to him. This, I believe, is true of ninet soldiers In a hundred. No man feels more deeply than the American soldier what war means to American mothers especially a foreign ,war. So one of the first thoughts that come to a soldier after reading the league covenant Is this: Is It right to erposethe mothers of America to all the grief of war, Just to help a foreign nation settle a boundary quarrel or win a political -- . .. dispute?" The obe consolation of the American mother, when her son said goodbye, was that he wore the uniform of hla country and marched away under the flag of the United States. He went because the government of his country Called him. He would fight Jo uphold the honor of the United States. He would face death to protect his country and his people. He would risk his life tq punish the enemies of his country. This pride In their sons American spirit and American loyalty carried a million American mothers through the anguish of sleepless nights. It was what brought them through the torture of the days whenAmerican young men were dying by thousands and no news came to tell who still lived and who had gone Now Just imagine a war which had not even this comfort for a mothers heart!

Can an American imagine a more .needless outrage-t- o be imposed on American womanhood? Can a soldier think of a more painful sacrifice, this side or death ? I know that some men, who have not felt death facing them in front and anguish waiting on .them at home, hare said much about fighting for" mankind. "An American statesraanhas --even said- - These to secure the men gave their-livfreedom of mankind." But no soldier can accept that. If the statesman had been a soldier, he would not Because -- he have said It" Why? would not have felt It. The soldier of the United States fought for the United States. He had no like or dislike for mankind In general. He thought only of hla own That was his main pride country. and consolation; for his mother, that was the sole pride and consolation. And for the mothers of America, if not for themselves, American soldiers would .resent any scheme of world politics which. In the days of war trial and war misery, would take away this last vestige of com fort and leave nothing but anxiety behind.
