The correct answer is D. After having a boy, the father and his wife have another baby; their boy grows up and marries a girl who, ironically, likes hats!

Explanation:

The poem "That Old Straw Sojourner" by David Matherne describes the experiences of a man by relating those experiences to the hat the man wears, this beings by explaining the man lost a child "It’d seen a child die—Depression--a war"; however after this, the man and his wife have a another boy "the midwife had announced, ‘You’ve a boy"; additionally, this boy grew and worked in the farm just as his family "So the family worked the farm Until the boy took arm-in-arm" after this, the met a woman who liked both shoes and hats "A girl from town with mighty charm Who had a fancy for shoes and hats" and finally as the father grew old the son inherited everything including the old hat. Thus, the option that best states the information in this poem is D as it explains most of the stages in the life of the man who wore the hat and his son.

which three parts of this excerpt from editha by William Dean Howell's denote the meaninglessness of war​
g100num [7]

Answer:

a. They think they'll come marching back, somehow, just as gay as they went

c. some of those foreigners, that weren't there because they had any say about it, but because they had to be there, poor wretches

d.  You thought it would be all right for my George, your George, to kill the sons of those miserable mothers and the husbands of those girls that you would never see the faces of."

Explanation:

The short story "Editha" by William Dean Howell revolves around the character Editha who thinks that war is glorious and 'forces' her fiancé to enlist. But in the end, the man died, thus showing how useless war is.

After Editha persuades George to enlist for the war, he did not return alive, which led to the outburst of George's mother. She lamented that just because she (Editha) <em>"thought it would be all right for my George, your George, to kill the sons of those miserable mothers and the husbands of those girls that you would never see the faces of"</em> doesn't justify the war. She also commented on how people <em>"think they'll come marching back, somehow, just as gay as they went"</em>. She also referred to the foreigners who weren't there as <em>"poor wretches".</em>

Thus, <u>options a, c, and d shows the meaninglessness of war</u>.
