VALUE OF A DOLLAR
One of the telling points
being made by W. R. Jackson
of Mexico, Mo., in his address
before the war savings society
is the statement of the value
of a dollar today a compared
with what it will be worth five
years hence, when the present
series of War Savings stamps
mature.
“The dollar saved today will
be worth more than $1.50 then
he said, “Of course, I refer to
die buying power of the dollar
Ihe conditions that exist now
will have disappeared by that
time, and the nomal will have
returned. All authorities on
economics agree that presen
Prices cannotw be maintainec
M that the dollars of 192

VISITS TO Y.M.C.A.
Stupendous figures showing some
thing of the activities of the Army
Soung Men’s Christian Association in
! the Southern Department during the
year ending April 30, 1919, have just
been compiled at Southern Depart
ment headquarters at San Antonio,
Tex. The Southern Department em
braces the states of Texas, Oklahoma,
Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico and
Arizona, and according to the figures
submitted to Executive Secretary H.
H. Simmons by Business Secretary L.
Q. Williamson, the total attendance at
y. M. C. A. buildings during the year
was 60,212,823—or equivalent to more
than half the population of the United
States. Statistics are based on daily
reports covering each of the 365 days
during the year just closed.
A most remarkable showing is made
by the religious work department, a
very positive refutation of the claim
Dn the part of some people that the
soldiers dodge religious services. Dur
ing the year, according to the report,
j there were 18,092 religious meetings
with an attendance of 2,719,719. The
movies, with a total of 10,997 show
ings, had an attendance of 3,914,681.
By way of explanation, it is said that
It is only fair to admit that many re
i ilgious services were held immediately
iftei^ the movieS, thus getting the bene
fit of the movie audiences. It is well
known that motion pictures draw aV
tendance as no other amusement fea
tore.

braced In the report, under the head
of the several departments of Y. M.
0. A. work, are the following:
