TO ALL MOTHERS AND FATHERS
(Felix Fivet, aged three weeks, was
murdered by the Germans in Dinant,
Belgium “for firing on German
troops.”)
Whenever I see my baby asleep and
safe in bed,
Nestled ngainst the pillow his fra
grant little head,
And smoothing down the blankets his
mother sings and stoops,
I thing of Felix Fivet, who “fired on
German troops.”
Gan. Croziar Discusses
Aga Limit Enlargement
of Selective Service Law
Discussing enlargement of the age
limit for selective military service,
Provost Marshall General Crosier
said:
“A pronounced inajority of the
boards favor some enlargement, but
there is great diversity of opinion as
to the proper age limit. Nineteen
and 35 are perhaps the limits most
frequently suggested; but some recom
mend 40 or 46 aa the upper limit.
There is-a distinctively stronger de
mand for raising the maximum age
than for lowering the minimum.”
Gen. Crozier estimates that 1,389,-
388 acceptable single men would be
made available by an increase in the
age limit to Include men up to 45
years. The estimate places the num
ber of acceptable single men between
*18 and 21 years at 1,646,283. The
number of probably acceptable single
men already registered but not called
is 1,321,845. According to these fig
ures, should the age limit be enlarg
ed to include men of from 18 years
to 46 years, inclusive, 4,257,516 phy-
rwiie qualified unm
ried men would be open for service,

Theatrical Companies
at Liberty Hbeetres
Drew Huge Crowds
Musical comedies draw theh eaviest
crowds to the Liberty Theatres and
entertainment tents at the camps and
cantonments. “Standing Room only”
signs aren ceded whenever a musical
show appears. -
The sale of Bmileage books—pack
ages of coupons good for admission
to camp theaters and tents—has been
large throughout the country. The
Commission on Training Camp Activ

has been hard pressed to get books
printed rapidly enough to supply the
demand.
