THY SON LIVETH Every evening when I am at home, --and I am staying at home rather closely these days, knitting interminable skeins of gray yarn into socks for the boys in the trenches, --I go up into Bob's room and browse around among his traps and finger his tobacco-smelling clothes in the foolish way of mothers.

His books in the shelves range from Mother Goose Tales to Kant and his clan of thinkers, and up to what Morse planted and Marconi made to blossom. The last named are the thumbed books.

He bullied me into learning the code and being the party of the second part to take his messages. Looking back upon this now, I am impressed with the methods that are used by the Destiny that shapes our ends.

The moving and eloquent letters of a young American soldier fighting in the maelstrom of the Western Front in World War One are an uplifting example of the human spirit. Published in 1919, less than a year after the terrible conflict ended, this book is an amalgamation of a series of letters written by a young soldier. Addressing his mother with well-mannered affection and devotion, the author describes the conditions on the front; his fond memories of childhood; his fellow company of soldiers; and the auxiliary and medical support. Brimming with youthful exuberance and confidence, the author demonstrates a gift for words and poetic eloquence, alluding on occasion to the great writers he?d read. Convinced of the eternal and undying power of the human struggle, a memorable reflection of this brave soldier runs as follows: There is no death. Life goes on without hindrance or handicap. The one thing that troubles the men who come here is the fact that the ones that loved them are in agony.?
