Will Beat His Sons to France. Most admirable are the ambitions of many fathers of soldiers and sailors to enlist for fled Triangle service, and thus, perhaps, meet their sons in France or on the?high seas.

He is very proud of the fact that he will be "Over There" be fore his sons. Recruits for American Army and I Navy Y \!
