While Western Europe was all ablaze during the Spring of 1915, many Americans were tapping their toes to a catchy little ditty titled I Didn’t Raise my Boy to be a Soldier (by Alfred Bryan and Al Piantadosi). This really irked the editors at The Spectator who let their fingers trip across the typewriter keyboard at a tremendous speed spewing-out all sorts of unflattering adjectives; they even went so far as to rewrite a few verses.
This didn’t bother Messrs. Bryan and Piantadosi one bit, they really needed the publicity.
