With Pickens County Boys Under the Flag (Under this head The Sentinel ex-' pects to publish from time to time in teresting items and letters from Pick ens county soldiers. We now have sev eral letters on hand and would be glad to have others which will be of interest to the public.) The following I wish you to let some of the street walkers of that town and surrounding country see: A Word To The Men That Are at Home. Gentlemen: --Being personally acquainted with some of you people I wish to tell you what I and others think of you. You know that we are in this war and have got to win, so come on across and do your part. To win this war we have got to have several things, mainly MEN, MONEY and FOO). Now gentle men, you can (10 a lot more over here with the A. E. lF., than you can in America, or at least I think so. It costs almost as much to feed you in America as it does in France, and the same food that feeds you in Am erica will feed you on the man-kill ing front in France. And there you can do something for your country and also show that you are an Am erican. To be frank with you I don't be lieve you are going to conic over here. As I have talked to some of you all while I wais in America, and this is a common remark among you. And it starts with an "IF," if I was not so small, or large, or had a crooked toe, or some other trouble that does not amount to anything, I would enlist. Others have just mis sed the (raft by a few months or a few years. Once more I will be frank with you.in the first place, it is not the smallness nor the largeness, flat foot or crooked toe, it is the YELLOW STREAK that you have lown your back. Yes, I have said YELLOW, and I mean it-YOU have enough yellow in you to paint a barn. As for the fellow who is too old, you have the same chance that I or any other man had, you could have enlisted and you ';an still enlist. So come on across and do your part in the battle line. Some of you have talked war ever since the war start ed "Over here"-and still you walk the streetss and talk, talk, talk, but that i's all you can do. Listen I Now is the time for you to come to the colors and show the people what you are made out of. Don't stay at home and say that Tom, Bill, or some other fellow will do your part-that talk or those ar guments, don't clear you-. I guess you stay at home and go for the mail to see what the Yanks are dloing over here, but how in the devil you (10 it I can't see. If it wvere mie I w~ouldl burn the papers. I couldn't look at them, because I believe I could feel the yellowv strealds, when I saw their actions on thie front and me at home-doing nothing. Now listen, some of you are as able to (10 soldiers' dluty as any man in the United States Army, andl ouly a fewv years over the dIraft age-hut not over the age of some of the men in the army, as there are men in the army that are older than you are, who have volunteered to serve their country (luring the greatest wvar that history records. MEN, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT. Come oni and (do your part or wear goodl thick clothes so that the YELLOW will not show through them. YOU ARE YELLOW-that i's your DISEASE and the wvay to cure it is to go to a recruiting ofrice and andI sign your name Hoping to see some of you !;1 France soon, I am yours, "Till its over, over here."
