That purpose is to win this war for America and her allies. To ward the realization of that object every interest, undertaking and effort in these camps shouid be directed.

A similar sentiment is attributed to Gen eral Grant, who was sitting in his tent with his staff present when an officer en tered and, after glancing around, said: “There are no ladies present and I have a good story to tell.” General Grant interrupted, saying “But there are some gentlemen present.’ The story was not told I A few days ago a young soldier In re buking another for profanity, said to him: “There are a lot of fellows in this Camp that cannot cuss without swear ing.” This seems to be a truism. There are many of us who thoughtless ly use blasphemous language and swear and cuss without meaning it, who w’ould be very much surprised if our larguag, were reproduced on a phonograph record and played for our benefit. “Clear Sport, Clean Speech and Clean Habits,” is a good motto for any of us.
