In his wistful face for during all the
time that he had been In training
camp, Jim had received but two letters
—these from kindly though not vitally
interested friends.
Back In the treadmill of business he
had not known this poignant hunger
for the things of home. It came to
him now, out here In the barracks, as
be noted the new light of courage In
youthful faces, inspired by close-writ

anxious concerning their welfare.
"Somebody" cared.
There had been little time for girls
In Jim's former plodding, busy. life.
Presently an envelope was tossed at
him with a laugh, and he bent In sur
prised perplexity over its unusual in
scription. "To be delivered," he read,
"to the soldier who has no other let

of his company. Safely away from In

HOG WALLOW NEWS

The wild persimmon crop is ripening
in and around Hogwallow and much
anxiety is now disappearing. When it
begins to look like our citizens are on
their "last legs" something always
bobs up to bring about happiness and
contentment.
Atlas Peck is wishing for the good
fall and winter rains to set in to swell
iup his wagon wheel and rain barrel.
The postmaster has received notice
from the government to proceed to
take a new ten year lease on the Hog
wallow postoffice building. He has re
fused to proceed and has notified them
that the building cannot possibly last
that much longer that he has had a
hard time making it last through the
term which has just expired.
Tarn Sims says it's easy to borrow
money when you have the confidence
of the people. He says in the past he
has been much more persistant in his ef
forts than the government and has not
been nearly so successful.
Tobe Moselev thinks the govern
ment is right in asking for plenty of
money to run the war, that plenty of
money and material will keep every
thing well organized. He says his home
has been almost completely disorgan
ized for a week on account of his fail

In this brief bulletin of news lies one
of the most potent factors in the win

Meal of American home life con
stantly before the men who are pro
tecting it. These men had to go away
from their individual homes, but there
is a home which follows them—a place
where tliey can go when they are off
duty and meet their families and rest.
There is a room in every Y. W. C. A.
hostess house with a real fireplace in
It and a domestic hearth. There
chairs with cushions on them :e
china is not of the iron-bound bucket
variety necessary In camps and best
of all, the boys say, there are nice
women to talk to, No boy in camp
would hesitate to ask his mother or
sister or the girl he thinks most of to
meet him at a Y. W. C. A. house, for
he knows that the women she will see
there are of the right kind. The very
fact that it is known that there is a
real, homey place near each camp au
thorized by the war department and
presided over by dignified and refined
women, has served very largely to dis
courage the other type of woman and
keep her away from the men she for
merly preyed upon.

story is told of a great merchant's
wife whose Individual fortune mounts
to the million mark. This lady Is a
member of one of the Y. W. O. A. com
mittees, and on one occasion she was
helping in the cafeteria of a hostess
house at the Great Lakes naval train

a "day off" from her work in the base

Y. W. C. A. worker's husband, and who
had come to see her sailor brother, was

She sharply ordered the merchant's
wife to "look alive with these forks,
girlie."
The lady addressed as "girlie" quite
humbly saw to it that the pile of forks
was replenished. Then she went over
and talked to the girl, helped her to
locate her brother and sent her away
