Here is an expression of the sto- lclsm and the philosophy of a soldier as printed in extracts from his letters in the Atlantic Monthly: i:“Don’t worry about my privations— ‘which mostly there ain’t none’ Such as they are, they. are necessary and navoldable; and, above all, we are fitted for them. You can’t well sym- pathize with a man who Is doing the thing he has longed for and trained tor all his life. Besides, physical pri- -vations are nothing; it is the mental fnes” that hurt. A soldier in the trenches, with little to eat and nothing but a hole to sleep in, can feel happy 4ll the same—particularly if life has something in prospect for him if he But a man out of work at home, sleeping in the park and pan- handling for food, is much more to be pitied, though his immediate hardships ey be no greater.” HUFFMAN _ & - O'LEARY FURNITURE AND UNDERTAKING H.
