WANTS GYMNASIUM AT

March 9. 1916.
Ny Dear Mr.. Editor will be OBJ.
liged to YOU for little space in your
excellent journal as to What shall
we do for the soldier. Having made
a study of the subject during my ~
months sojourn in the Paradise Of
the Pacific" as army chaplain, be-
lieye I may speak with some author
ity. While the good citizens Of Homo
irlu are not obliged to do anything
for the boys, it seems that they want
70 make some present TO them as q
mark OF patriotism and good viii.
Nothing would be more. acceptable and
suitable than a gymnasium at Schoa
field. for not only the largest post ~
the islands, but the largest IN the W
s. army. The soldiers IN the other
reservations must admit thai we have
twice as many enlisted men in thls
isolated garrison as they have in all
OF the others combined. There is no
need of anything Of the kind in town
because the boys go to the city 70 en-
ioy themselves. in way that cannot
be had in the post, being anxious TO
visit the theaters, have bath at Wal
kilSi. enjoy an auto ride and revel
among the bright lights of the town
generally.
/ would like to see building out
here that would be a matter OF pride
to every civilian, monument tnal
could be exhibited to every tourist as
having been donated by the Honolu-
lans to the enlisted men. The cost OF
erection would be the only expense.
10 he sure. we will contribute some
ourselves, but a very small amount

gold braid that we wear is represerl-
tative of SO much real wealth. 1 have
vet to hear OF any officer or soldier.
having been made wealthy on what
he derives from his regular income
in the service. VIII the Chamber Of
commerce allow .ps 70 60 ahead and
solicit subscriptions from sucn gooqs
citizens as would like to give?
I may say that this is the plan tnal
has received the formal Endorsement
Of Gen. Wiser himself. and he ought
to know what would be best having
been commander Of this post for some
time The governor has also given his
approval of this idea
There is no need at all of blaming
either the soldier OF the civilian. mas
much as there viii arise misunder-
standings between the best Of friends.
.Boys will be boys" You know. Nor
can you put old heads on young
shoulders.
Finally this hall could be erected in
the center OF the post, so that it might
be used by each regiment IN its turn
for basketball, indoor baseball, dane
ing and an occasional lecture by some
distinguished civil or military au-
thority.
Yes. give us the gym and then you
may say with just pride, See what a
fine present we have made our soldier
lads. This win bring to an end the
controversy.

SOLDIER DOESN'T WANT
GYMNASIUM OR CLUBHOUSE
Respectfully
IGNATIUS FEALY,
Chaplain, q. s. Army.

- Mr. Citizen. ri have heard and read
SO much In regards to that famous
old question What can we do for the
soldier2" that the thing Is beginning
to CRATE on my neryes-not that am
egotistiral enough to think that the
condition of my nerves should have
any hearing on the case.
You may or may not know that at
least half Of the men in the ranks Of
the End Infantry Ct hesitate TO say the
Army of Oahu" because | am not
familiar with the personnel of the 9TH
er regiments) enlisted about two years
ago when the situation in Mexico vas
at its worst. They enlisted for purely
patriotic reasons, not for the purpose
OF having anything done for them, but
with the express intention, If the need
arose, of doing something for some
one else. namely protecting their flag
and their countrymen from insult and
outrage at the hands OF a horde of
barefooted. sombreroed, semi-heathens
IN Mexico.
The fact that the danger failed TO
materialize dosn't detract one whit
from the hneness of their motive.
DO you suppose that that spirit Of
patriotism. that fine sense of loyalty
which sent them hurrying TO the col
ors at the first hint of impending dan
ger is going to flourish under the con.
ditions imposed upon them by the ig-
norant, narrow-minded, patronizing,
supercilious, not 70 say hostile atti-
tude adopted toward all men in uni
form by the very citizen whose rights
he has enlisted to protect.
The soldier is drilled in the art Of
looking out for himself and is un-
doubtedly as well able to do this as
the average civilian. He doesn't want
to be petted or patronized, or treated
like child He is a man doing a
mans work and all he asks is that
you accord him the same treatment
accorded any other man under the
same conditions Get over the old

FEELING EFFECTS
OF SALARY LIMIT
Three.Eye Clubs Unable to Sign All Of
Last Years Stars at Figures
That Are Offered.

Bloomington, H., Feb. 2S.-Three-
Eye league clubs are commencing to
feel the effects of the new salary
limit which was adopted at the Chi
cago meeting last fall. This forces
a reduction in salary for number OF
the players and they are baking.
Those who will not sign at the lower
rating are being disposed of to other
leagues where the trade or sale is pos
sible.
The Three-Eye league is not alone
in this action as most of the other
minor organization shave been forced
to a similar stand. 1t has been real
lied for some years that the players
were getting the money and the sup
porters of the various clubs were pay
ing the bills. Not to exceed 10 per
cent of the associations have been
able to show a surplus, while the ma
jority have been operated at a loss.
With the elimination of the Federal
league, and the increase in the num-
,, Der of players seeking employment,
the Three-Eye magnates are in posi-
ton to be more Independent, and, so
far as known, all are observing the
limit

HOLD MONMOUTH
BOY HAS Chance
Ralph Greenleai, 16 Years Old, Is Aft
er Pocket Billiard Title in Chi
cagO Tournament.

Chicago, Feb. 2S.-What bids fair to
be the greatest pocket billiard tourna-
ment ever held in Chicago for the
west was inaugurated Saturday night
at the Inter Ocean building, where
last spring was staged the memorable
worlds championship three-cushion
tournament won by George Moore of
New York
A field of 12 of the leading pocket
opponents of the country will fight it
out for the crown long worn by Bonnie
Allen of Kansas City, and as a fitting
setting to the first nights play the
champion and Mike Petrie of Chicago
were carded as the second half of the
opening attraction. The first half, the
curtain raiser, enlisted Frank Taber-
ski OF Schenectady, n Y, who is said to
be the best Polish player in the world,
and John Layton of Sedalia, Mo, d
veteran who Is almost sure to finish
in the first flight at the close of the
tournament.
Much is expected of Ralph Green
leaf, the 16year-old boy from Mon
mouth. Ill, who despite the fact that
he is the youngest player that ever en-
tered championship tournament is so
good that he is conceded a chance to
finlsh, one, two, three by those who
have seen his practice work.
Besides winning the Brunswick dia-
pionship the victor will carry off $500
in cash, $2,400 in all having been hung
