You deserve more from life than
you have been getting, MaTgie, and 1
can give it to you. l can give you
every wish of your heart except con-
Ventional prOpTiety. If you come with
me, dear, it will mean the world lost

relatives that would grieve and
think could make up to you for all
the things you might miss in your
new life.
HAS your old life been so happy,
Margie, that you can conceive moth

tent?"
All the time Malcolm Stuart was
talking we had been Ieisurely walk
ing along the board walk. 1 heard
his voice almost in a dream, for l
was going over our acquaintance and
friendship carefully and wondering if
1 really did love him. Was this beau

If it were, was l a nameless thing, fit
to be classed with all those women
that mad been Dicks paTamOurS!
All my precOnceived ideas about

Again I heard his voice: "Margie,

mocracy. When young America in civil
life is not at work it is at the ball game
or at the motion picture show or at
play in some form. The American eX-
peditionary soldier will play as fast as
he will train for service.
This is the dictum of a recreation eX-
pert who knows the value of recreation,
moral and educational, and who also
knows the philosophy of Messrs. Baker
and Gorgas. My authoritative inform
ant continues with an enthusiasm that
is infectious:
Good athletes take such pride in
their physical fitness (and good SOL
diers are necessarily good athletes) that
they will not abuse their health by IN
dulgences. But, aside from personal
pride in fitness, play is in itself the
great prophylaxis against immoral
abuses.
Work is a prophylactic agent against
disease, but play is its counterpart II
not its peer. Play means health. The
play spirit alone is strictly normal Play
is the preventive against physical and
mental and moral breakdown"
The rediscovery Of play as a social
agent is one of the most vital dlscov-
cries Of modern times. Recreation Is
its organized application. 1t has been
anpled educationally. 1t has been de-

number Of recreation experts for the su-
pervision Of recreation at the large
training camps. There is here no mere
theoretic attention to play, no paper APP
plcation of recreation philosophy, no
mere philanthropic interest in the SOL
dier's idle hour similar to the interest
which a charitable gentleman would
take in supplying tracts to hospital, or
books to an old ladies' home. or bat
and ball to a nephew. One can detect
the grim purpose of the department to
carry out Section Is of the draft law to
the letter.
The problem before us is scarcely of
a part with sewing society work How
ever. to avoid any gesture Of sensa-
tionalism, it is we'll to follow the plain,
serious words of the War Department
bulletins to illustrate the vice side of
the problem. Captain f. B. Vedder. of
the United States Medical Corps, in War
Department Bulletin No. 8, writes SUBJ
stantially as follows:
Our sick report has been reproach
in that we have had more men on the
sick report because of venereal diseases
than any other army in the world. Tests
show that 16 per cent OF the recruits
are infected on enlistment. Venereal
prophylaxis is the order Of the day"

garrison to healthful exercise, to whole
some amusement, to off-hour activities,
10 athletics, to play and to the devices
that healthy men indulge in at home.
Says Surgeon Major D. c. Howard IN
recent War Department bulletin:
Recreation will be Of great value.
Idleness is said to be the mother OF
echery. Wholesome amusements and
athletics will make the garrison so at
tractive that the soldier will be inclined
to spend his spare time in garrison. No
present-day problem in military pre-
yentiVe medicine is Of greater impor-
lance in relation to the physical eff
cheney of the army than that OF eff
fectual control of venereal disease"
Thus boldly is the issue stated. be-
cause thus boldly does the Secretary of
War propose to meet mans worst en-
envy, which Surgeon Major Maus de-
scribes as "The Great Red Plague"

mankind. Aid and comfort have been

The American Army of DemOC-
raCy Is Not To Be a Disease
Infested, BOOze=InhiCfed Force

Infested, BOOze-InfiCfed Force
The draft law contains no provision
more vital to the security of the nation
than Section Is, which authorizes Sec
rotary of War Baker to draw a dead
line about our military camps for in
lection.
Barring aliens OF enemy nations from
cur military posts and works is chlld's
play compared with this preventive
task.
The Canadian military camps became
excursion points for thousands of wives,
mothers, sisters and, under this cloak,
of others who had no particular qualifi-
cation except enthusiasm for the soldier
and a pronounced reaction toward the
uniform.
Driven from the mile or more limit,
these latter set up at whatever distance
and expressed their patriotism in indul-
gences for which the war made toll
Grant conscience. And Canadians are
among the strictest puritans in the
world. By devious preteXts, hundreds
of these soldier-smitten women followed
the units to Europe.
We may quite as well ignore the ex-
periences of the Allies in Europe, for
our own experiences are rich enough.
The government has issued no bulletin
showing the number of soldiers inca
pacitated by disease during the MeXi-
can expedition, but the only available
authorities, the Individual militiamen
and officers, recite a distressing nara
tive of debauchery on the border. In
more than one instance dives were set up
in full view of the officers camp, though,
of course, outside Of the authority of
the War Department. And to such
wretched dens the soldiers resorted be-
cause of the utter vacuity Of border SOL
dering and the lack of adequate recrea-
ton facilities.
1t is these experiences which now de-
termine the War Department to achieve
new triumph for sanitation by in
augurating a system Of thorough pro-
phylaxis, substituting recreation for
stupidity, idleness and vice indulgence.
The American Army Of Democracy is
not to be a disease-infested, booze-in-
ficted army. 1t is to triumph over
mankind's worst enemies before 1t
leaves our soil, and it is to carry its tri-
umphs to Europe, there to advertise to
the whole world the new American idea
in social prophylaxis.
To such an army every American
mother will be proud to lend her son.

EEPING CLEAN THE ARMY OF DEMOCRACY

will not give them specific publicity
showing that these social diseases I'M
fitted hundreds of thousands of soldiers
al the front from duty on the firing
line. More terrible than the bullets OF
the combatants alike to the invaders
and TO the invaded were the ravages OF
these diseases at Badaios, in the PENN
sular campaign. as to Rome and Naples
in the Spanish invasion. More terrible
than an army with banners are the
camp followers in its wake.
These disquieting truths should be
kept hidden, lest the patriotic spirit be
discouraged, provided the United States
proposed to take part in the war on this
basis. provided the propagation of dis
ease were one of our objects in the
war. and provided there were no way
of protecting our 100000 chosen SOL
ders and thereafter the nation from
the ravageS of a plague.
But the War Department knows this
enemy to be vulnerable and it proposes
to fight it in the open field with social
prophylaxis, and to crush it, both in the
training camp and in its present So
fruitful lair, the trench zones of Europe.
But before these preventive recrea-
ton plans can be made effective there
must be positive exclusion of the unfit.
Weed out the infected is the new
watchword of the recruiting authori-
ties. Infected recruits, if not detected,
will prove an impediment to the army,
filling first the hospitals and finally the
pension lists.

Science and sanitation triumphed
over the mosquito. Now it remains for
American army moral sanitation to trl-
umph over the ruthless enemies, booze
and disease.
One can read in the draft law, in the
regulations and in the express actions
Of Secretary of War Baker that he
means this army of 100000 clean young
americans to be the first army that ever
,ook the field and stayed in the field and
returned from the field untainted by the
dual war vices. Secretary Baker is de-
.ermined that the wounds inflicted upon
our Army of Liberation shall be those
inflicted by the Central Powers, and not
those so habitually inflicted by the army
upon itself.
