NEWS OF THE CHURCHES
N a variety Of wholesome, helpful

In q variety OF wholesome, helpful
ways.
The amount OF experience that
the association has had in providing
for soldiers Is indicated by TIE fact,
that during the Spanish-American
war the international COMMITTEES
spent tsl 900. and state and local
committees spent $4,000. Tents
were maintained with various units
at the base camps in this country.
In Cuba, In Porto Rico. and in the
Philippine islands. Since the recent
mobilization many Y. NJ. c. A. secre-
taries have volunteered for this ser
vice. Some have offered their va.
cation time, and others have agreed
to serve In the war.
The thing has all been worked
out to q science by the army anc
navy committee In New York. which
In normal times OF peace Ia assfdu'
ously at work for the men In uni
form. On the wArshtps, In tho forts.
and At the navy yards. there are 10
branches of the navy Y. NJ. c. A.
al, built since the Spanish-Amerfcac
war. They have furnished lodging
for 20e, e07 men. not to mention
more thaa 1900 who have slept on
the f,oor. The scale on which this
work ID done II shown by the state
ment that in . single night in one
building. 1881 American sailors
slept. The average cost TO the sa''
or for lodging 10 10 cents. The reS
ords show an attendance on tssse
navy branches OF million and
half sailors. Something over 10000
meals have been served. Twenty
thousand men rent lockers OF the
associa ton for holding their civilian
clothes, and other possessions when
they are on cruise. Nearly million
dollars has been deposited WIN
naval branches for safekeeping. and
about 100000 men have attended the
religious services.
In 10 years the navy has increased
40 per cent, but in the same Pc
Rod. the attendance upon the naval
Y. N. C. A. has increased sl0 per
cent
So the association which under
takes now to follow the troops, Is
by no means unacquainted with It's
task.

made upon it for supplies in the way
of clothing and equipage. and with the
arrangement which we now have for
purchasing, In order to repienish stock,
it is not believed there will be any diff
Guilty. no matter how many troops are
called.
"As far as food supplies are concern
ed, these have been abundant in guam
tity and of excellent quality, and ar
rangements are such that the same will
continue when the large increase of
troops in Texas is made, the matter be-
ing entirely handled by the department
commander, through the department
Quartermaster"
The only difiictlty so far experienced
has been in obtaining q sufficient num-
Der of motor. trucks of q certain type
