Little dreamer in your eyes I can see the old, old gleam ‘Where the World of Glory lies Out the happy Road of Dream; In your eyes there leaps the flame Of the future's star-crowned years Where the glint and glow of Fame Lights the shadowed night of tears. Little Dreamer, you have heard Music in the Faraway, Sweeter than the song of bird Singing where you dream today; Echo of the bugle call— Of the rolling drum and fife Where the Troopers storm the wal] In the battle-swirl of life. Little Dreamer, through the haze I remember dreams as sweet, Back through vanished yesterdays Out the way of weary feet; Just as you, T saw the light Of the glory and the gleam— Led the vanguard in the fight Over laurelled walls of dream; Little Dreamer, I toa knew In the old, old days of truth All the dreams that come to you, All the golden dreams of youth; But today across the years, Looking back from new to then, 1, within the night of fears, Dream that I am back again— | Back beneath the wide, kind sky In the orchard, half asleep; Where the winds come dancing by And the twilight shadows creep; Tust a little dreamer there, In my eyes the old, old gleam, As T wander, free from care, Doawn the happy Road of Dream.

Sport has given the United the finest war material in men that country the map For in haseball, football, golf, tennis and track there are close to 8,000,000 hetween the ages of eighteen and forty-five that have received this training.

Courage also is recognized as one of the chief assets of any contender in sport, and in this way a tradition of courage or nerve has been built up from many fields.
