Recreation for Soldiers.

The military authorities in France are
beginning to realize that much remains
to be done in the matter of providing
men serving under the colors with
healthy recreation. AS matter of fact,
in almost every regiment at the present
time soldiers have little choice to make
as to how to spend their spare time.
They can either stay in barracks and be
called upon for extra fatigue duties or
go out to wander aimlessly about tho
streets of the garrison town or spend
three or four hours in the taverns.
The minister of war has now sent
circular letter to the generals command
ing the twenty army corps asking them
to consider the question of the organiza-
ton of recreation and reading rooms in
barracks in order to provide the men
with 'moralizing atmosphere" Pri-
vate initiative had already taken a step
in this direction and had provided a GER
tain number Of games of draughts, chess,
etc., together with outdoor games, for the
use Of soldiers in barracks, and in one
or two towns soldiers clubs have been
opened. Now that the authorities are
taking the matter in hand much good
may be effected in this direction. Paris
