REVIEW OF WORK HERE
Alexandria, It Is Pointed Out, Should
Strive to Maintain The H?jr!'*st Pos
sible Degree of Community Service.
With the passing of war Camps,
War Caimp Community Service wiM
cease to be a factor, yet there is a
feeling that as an outcome of ttn>
sjccess attained throughout this coun
try by this nation-wide organization
during the period of the war. Com
munity Service shouki follow as a
healthy offspring. As to War Camp
Community Service it is doubtful if
those connected with that organiza
tion overlooked afiy item of service
dealing with the comfort, amusement,
uplifting influences and morale of the
enlisted man when he happened to be
in a community where the organiza
tion was located, and fciere were near
ly seven hundred cities and towns in
the United States where Wur Camp
Community was established and main
tained for these noble purposes.
Is there any reason then why this
same work should not be continued
as Community Service, and assist any
and every community to handle any
problems presenting themselves?
This organization will have establish
ed headquarters in New York City
and any community matting a request
for the service will receive hearty
and prompt co-operation. TV in
stance, as it will be necessary for
each comlmunity to raise its own fund
or budget to cany on the work, head
quarters will send a trained man to
co-operate with a local commit tee ir
the proper method of securing the i
quired amount. Also in the matter of
the lodal equipment oel-onjring now to
