WONDERFUL THINGS
FOR OUR SOLDIERS
"W« Americans ara mora deaply in
terested in the welfare of our mfen in
France than we are in anything else
—except, of course, the winning of .the
war. So wl»en the request came .from
the War yrork council of the Y. "M.
C. A. that I visit the army In France
and, as an outsider, study this tha»e
of their work, I gladly laid aaida all
other matters and went," says Luther
B. Gullck, president of the Camp Fire
Girls. "I was given every opportunity
to form my own opinions and to see
the real situation—from a port of en
try to Paris, from Paris to Toul, and
from Toul through the length of the
American front line. Most important
information was given to me by Brig
adier-General Bradley in charge of all
medical, surgical and sanitary mat
ters in the American expeditionary
force. Mr. E. C, Carter, head of the
Y. M. C. A. work in the armies of the
Allies, made arrangements for ouch
trips and visits as I desired. 'Much
time was given me by Dr. J. H. Mc
Curdy in charge of athletics in the
American army, and by Dr. George
Meylan in similar relation to.wprk in
the French army.
First of all, I want to say right
out that the American young men, or
'our boys,' as we like to call them,
stand a better chance of developing
a strong, clean character and of keep
ing free from disease in the American
army in Stance than they do in the'
average -American home and city. I
make this not as a general, loose
statement, but as a sober conviction
based upon my observations beginning
at where the men landed, following
them through the training camps,
through the military centers, right up
to and including the dugouts in which
they live immediately behind the front
line trenches
"I found that in the army camps
the men have better surroundings
and more adequate,' wholesome things
to do in their free time than they us
ually have in their own homes. You
who have only seen the Y. ,M. C. A
at work in America have no idea what
it is doing over there. The chance for
clean recreation is far greater over
there than here. We are taking the
leading American physical directors,
athletic coaches, baseball trainers,
boxing masters, fencing masters, and
leaders of all kinds of sports, and are
developing over there a bigger ath
letic administration for all the rr^n
than- the world has ever seen. Tne
Greeks in their most vigorous days
never had as many athletes in train
ing as there are in the American army
in France. .1 Just happened to heaf
the other day that In the British afmy
alone .a hundred thousand pairs* of
boxing gloves had .been ordered from
one dealer. Putting together all this
picture of which I have given you the
outlines, it shows that leisure time
is filled with the finest things that can
be made available. Never before were
the fine things of life 'organized and
developed and administered so as to
tempt men' for righteousness. Not
merely a few men some of the time,
as is done in the churches, settle
ments, Y. M. C. A.'s and community
centers over here, but all the men all
the time, with equipment enough, and
talent
.*4
and administrative
ability, enqugh to put it across.'r have
»6fM*)tantJchi-j|!dminIstratlon used.'^foc
en|4ottatiaft ot vice. Never before
HaNw Irtfceiy'lPundertaken for the eji»
ploltatfori"of virtue."

IN CALIFORNIA
Two Hundred Youths From
San Francisco Prize Fight
Section Oft to. Camp.
San Francieco, Calif., Aug. 26.
From "Aouth of the 0lot" a portion
of San Francisco where it is said,
three world's champion pugilists in
bygone days lived on the same street
at the same Yime, a couple of hundred
red fisted selective draft men swung
down Market street to the Ferry
building headed for Oamp Lewis, Ta
coma* Wash. Another cluster with a
wholly different ancestral nationality
showing in thick curling black hair,
quick smiles and splendid teeth,
swirled out into the Embarcadero, the
big -plaza which fronts the Ferry
building ,to the music of an accordlan
playing "Tipperary," and the two
crowds jammed through the station
gates together, leaving the outer wait
lnfc rooms packed tight with friends
and relatives. A young man in uni
form boarded their train with them,
and sat down at one end of a car. He
wore the khaki of the Y. M. C. A.
Half way to Sacramento, the mo
mentary depression of departure be
gan to fade. *Youth became alert. So
did the young man in khaki who
entered into a discussion of the pos
sibilities of accordian music, with the
owner of that instrument. Presently
It was discoursing to the extent of its
billowing powers, and the chorus of
"Rose Marie" swelled above the car
din. The singing went on. for hours.
In the next car, half a dogen card
games were running, with an observ
er or two for each player. The car
way busy, and the Y. C.^A^iti^n,
who had left the musical caV. llifgered
orily a moment, to see^that no lone
some souls were Isolating themselves.
The third^car had nothing to do,
apparently. Nobody was playing no
body was singing. A row was brew
ing in a far corner. From nowhere
in particular a set .of boxing gloves
revealed themselves in the young
man's hands, and a moment later
they were attached to the wrists of
two youths known as preliminary
fighters in the four round non-profes
sional bouts allowed in California.
Cramped as to footwork by the nar
row isles, they whaled away undaunt
ed, and the squabblers at the end of
the car stopped their row, to see the
fun. They did^not take their" griev
ance up again.
jln .another car, half a dozen ,-dom-'
fto games were started, with- sets
provided by the men who wore the
khaki.
But the find of the trip appeared in
a yoUng vaudeville aetor, amor^r the
drafted men, who was on.the "big
time" circuit is private life., He gave
his "sketch," he gave imitations of
other actors' sketches he recited,^he
sangl until, in falrneps to his tiring
voice, the men, shut off their still en
thusiastic comrades from further en
cores.
At station stops, the young man in
uniform moved from group to group,
nearly always with a word of pride
in the conduct of the men. }t ap
peared they, themselves, ,had nAt not
ed their good behavior particularly,
Aut &fter he spoke, they began to pay
attention. "Cut out the rough stuff,"
became a. talisman through wh^ch the
restless outdoor youths, held them
selves and each other in check, dur
ing many hours of travel.
In quiet, times, the Y. M. C. A. man
did a little rough "first -aid." One
roan proclaimed hoarsely that he had
a cold In his throat and his coughing
would kep his companions awake. A
wet towel, surmounted by a dry one,
gave him somewhat the appearance
of

the spirit of the civilian population as
Veil as that of the-army is at stake.
'The American Red Cross organi
sation has made it magnificently clear
.to France what serious and produc
tive efforts America is capable /of ac
complishing.
"You Americana have not come over
here with the intention ot claiming
credit, but in an unselfish spirit, with
out asking for anything except per
mission to help, lis:'
"The work you are doing has
brought you very close to our wound
ed men, to the sick and destitute peo
ple of France, fui well as to our little
children. It has gained you their
love.
"You have placed America's experi
ence at the service of our own experi
ence you have given us your medical
support to aid us in alleviating the in
4fetue suffering of the war. You have
been business-like as well as friendly,
and our gratitude is unbounded.
"The present struggle Is an ordeal
for all of us, and the aid that the Red
Cross has given France is invaluable
to us, because it shows America's
true spirit whlclj, more than ever, is
united to the spirit of. France, and
gives us the assurance that you will
be with us to hold to the end."

'not cough. A splinter in a finger'be

of the Plattsburg manual. When
.these things were accomplished, the
men w^re waiting for some fresh sug
gestion for amusement.
