WAR-ZONE HOME FOR OUR BOYS
“OVER-THERE” IS “Y” SLOGAN
“War-Zone Home for Our Boys ‘Over.There’.”
adopted by the National War Work
Council of the Young Men's Christian
Association which has extensive plans
for carrying its recreational, education¬
al, social and religious work to the
hundreds of thousands of American
troops who will go overseas to Prance
this winter.
The "Y” is already “over-there.”
Buildings have been constructed for
tiie first American overseas expedition¬
ary army and at. the harbors of Prance
for the navy. They are the nearest
approach to home that General Per¬
shing's and Admiral Sims’ men find in
all the foreignness with which they
are surrounded. There they can write
letters, read American newspapers
and magazines, have their athletics,
learn French, hold their Bible classes.
These “little hits of America’’ takr
the place “over-there” of school, the¬
ater, gymnasium, club, church and
home. They must be supplemented
with other buildings in all of the
fighting zones as rapidly as the Unit¬
ed States reach the other side.
The “Y" is also “over-there” among
the troops of our allies. It gets its
refreshment stands right up into the
trenches themselves and serves hot
drinks and many other supplies to the
A Few Thoughts To Our Readers,
I just want to tell our beautiful
young ladies some things I *uess
they have never thought about.
Girls, did you ever think you was
to blame for our many young men
drunkards, for our young men
players, and swearers. To be sure
you are. Why? Because if you
would never keep company with
one of that kind, they would sure
quit at once, unless he had gone so
far into the slums of sin and
grace that he does not care for any- |
thing except his hellish
ness. I haven’t any boys who
drink the damnable stuff, and 1 ;
thand God for ,t. but .t they should I
and I was with to see him, a young I would lady feel, in j
company !
sorry for her for not having any
more respect for herself and her
parents. A drunkard , , , should , , , not
have the plearure of keeping com
pany r J with any j lady, j as thev are
-
not fit even for the company of a j
man. Girls, think about it. VY hat j
influence for good '
a great you can
be if you will only trv. i love all !
of them, and God knows it, but it j
makes my J heart ache to see them j
reel and stagger to and 1 ro when
they get their system full of the j
hellish stuff. We would have more
fine young men if they would only |
leave off those bad habits.
May God bless and save them all
from a drunkards grave is
prayer.

in the Holy Land. "The more
we can get up to the front, the
more we can dispose of,” writes one
the secretaries with these troops.
“The men come for many miles, most
them, and we can meet only a part
their needs, as the supply is never
to the demand. A line of men
quarter of a mile long waiting their
turn is not uncommon.”
There are now 600 War Work Y. M.

camps of the United States manned
by 2,000 secretaries. Hundreds of oth¬
er buildings and men are required for
overseas.
