WAR
War ? We ask this humble question,
What does this small word mean?
Does it go to make us happy
Or does it make us mean?
Does it mean, we send our sons
away,
For vacation and for fun,
Or, does it mean to hunt and kill
And fear the sight of gun?
We ponder long and seriously
And wonder what it’s for,
And then again this tho't it comes
What means this small word—war ?
Can mothers who sent sons away
A few short months ago,
Explain to us the meaning of
The word we want to know?
O, no their hearts too heavy are,
Some sons did not come back,
And they are wondering still in fear
Of what became of Jack
Or Jim or Joe, or Bill, or Sam, and
if he’s under sod,
Or if he will return again
And learn to trust in God.
We listen, as we kneel to pray,
We hear an’ airplane soar,
And wonder if it’s filled with boys,
Now being sent to war.
O, leaders of great nations,
Please tell us what it’s for
To send our sons, away to kill,
And call this small word—War.

Veteran Nurse
Of 3 Wars Dies
Mrs. Etta BR. Roach
Lies At Fern Knoll
With the passing of Mrs. Etta
Reese Roach, 79, Trucksville, one
of the last survivors of the gradua-
ting class of 1892, first group to
finish training at Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital, has put a final
period to fifty-eight years of nurs-
ing. She served in the Red Cross
in three wars.
During the Spanish American
War, she travelled on Governor
Daniel Hasting’s train to bring
back typhoid sufferers from Chick-
amauga, boys who were stricken
in camp and never saw active ser-
vice.
During the First World War Mrs.
Roach organized the Trucksville
unit under Miss Maude Brother-
hood, head of the Wyoming Valley
Red Cross, taught first aid, and was
alerted to go overseas when the
war ended.
Second World War saw Mrs.
Roach again in charge of the home
front in Trucksville, responsible for
bandage and sewing projects.
In addition to private practice,
Mrs. Roach held a position for
twelve years, 1921 to 1933, with
the Lehigh Valley Coal Company
in Hazleton and Mahanoy.
In failing health since Thanks-
giving, Mrs. Roach has been des-
perately ill for three weeks prior
to her death on Sunday. Not able
to lie down because of a heart
condition, she passed away in her
easy. chair.
She is survived by a sister, Mrs.
Harvey Weiss of Trucksville, with
whom she made her home; two
brothers, Sterling C. Reese, Trucks-
ville, Clinton H. Reese, Cresco;
three half brothers, Ross H. Lloyd,
Cleveland, Gordon H. Lloyd, Wilkes
Barre, Lynford Lloyd, Mountain
Top; three nieces and nephews. .
She was buried from her home
on Wednesday, with private funeral
services in charge of Dr. H, E.

o! Manage,
in the back yard of what will be
their new home. When Mrs. John
Curtis, who lives just across the
street from the school, found that
the Squier family was having a
garden plot ploughed and harrowed,
she sent over what it takes to
make a garden grow, a whole load
of manure. Mrs. Squier says that
due to this shot in the arm, her
gladiolus is already over a foot
high.
The house will be of ranch type
construction, a large living room,
dining room, and three bedrooms in
addition to the usual utility rooms.
Joseph Franks of Wilkes-Barre is
the contractor. Outside finish will
be brick and white siding, garage a
separate building. Ground was
broken on June 18, and the family
expects to occupy by Thanksgiving.
The two boys have already had
a chance to live on the new prop-
erty, for their parents pitched a
tent for them away back when the
garden was first getting under way,
before excavation for the founda-
tion of the house started.
The location, on the same street
as the school and almost next door
to it, will be convenient for the
supervising principal, within quick
walking distance instead of car dis-
tance. There is almost an acre of
land, enough for a large garden
and a good lawn.
The Squiers picked up a pair of
beautiful brass andirons, modern
type, brand new at the Library
Auction for their new fire-place.
