s
forego coveted POSSESSIONS or even ne
eessit:es, The work mus: go on, Dc.
cause there is no one thing that con-
tributes so much to the spirit and ell
aciency of the troops. The Y Nj G.
A. Is working night and day to help
the government win this war. And
every penny that is given to aid the
work is a direct assistance to the
health, happiness and strength OF your
boy and mine.
Snapshots Of kaleidoscope Work.
In all the big cities In France where
our men pass through IN large num-
bers, the Y. NJ. G. A. is operating
hostels, where they can get beds ana
meals at minimum cost. In London
the American Y. NJ, C. A. mas erected
q large building for our soldiers and
clubhouse for American officers.
There are Y. M. C. A. dugouts right
behind the front line trenches, where
the soldiers can get hot drinks, crack.
ers and other comforts at all hours.
Over 1000 men who had been reject
ed on account Of physical disability
have been able to get into the British
army by reason of the physical Work
Of the British Y. M. c. A.
A fleet OF motor cars leaves the DIG
Y.M. C. A. headquarters in London at
midnight every night to pick up SOL
diers who are wandering about the
streets without any wholesome lodging
In which to spend the night. These
cars are operated by EnglishWomen
of position and refinement, who report
that they never meet any discourtesy
at the hands Of the soldiers. The i'm
portance of this service can be esti-
mated by the fact that at least 5O,ooe
soldiers are on leave in London every
week. Over half of these sleep in Y.
NJ. C. A. beds every night
Entertainment on Vast Scale.
The Y. M. C. A has erected a big
auditorium, seating 5000, in each OF
the big draft camps, and huge chautau-
qua tents, seating $500 In the other
encampments. The association Is run
ming a % week entertainment circuit
among the camps and is paying 70
companies of entertainers, who ars
travelling to 80 camps performing be-
fore the men. o..
In each of the draft camps the T..
M. C. A. has ten secretaries engageH
In educational work. The association
is seeing to 1t that every man who
cannot speak English is Taught to dc
so. In many of the camps the asso-
citation has a singing director, who IS
teaching the men to sing the popular
and martial airs that do so much to
keep UP their spirits.
or "a Y. NJ c. A. men at Camp
Dix only three are being paid full sal
aries. In all the camps the majority
Of the Y. M. C. A. men have left lucra-
tive positions to do this work simply
because it's appeal Is irresistible to
any red blooded man. Harry Lauder,
the famous Scotch singer and come
dian, now on his farewell concert tour
In the United States, Is giving all his
spare time to the service Of the asso-
citation and Is singing to the soldiers
| at all the camps he can reach.
In one Of the draft camps the Y. NJ.
G. A. is supervising athletics on 12a
playing fields, providing full athletic
equipment The winners Of the inter
regimental games will play the cham
pions of the other camps.
One of the greatest services render
ed by the association Is the making

MEXICO MAN SPEAKS
At HISTORIC SERVICE
W. W. Fry, Sr., Speaks at D. A. R.
Dedication to Old Settlers at
Louisiana Sunday
MEMORIAL AT Fl. GORDON
Miss Mildred Burlington of Mexico,
Unveils Statue-BOy Scouts
Offieiate

A bit Of Pike county history brought
W. W. Fry, Sr., of this city, to the
speakers platform at Louisiana Sun
day to tell a little Of the life Of his
great grandfather, Robert Gordon, to
whom the D. A. RS Of that city
were defeating q huge monument at
Fl. Gordon, Louisiana.
Away back in the days Of the Amer
lean Indian, Robert Gordon, his wife
and two sons brought a company of
settlers into Pike County and built
a fort on the summit Of a hill about a
mile south Of Louisiana.
Here the little band of Americans
str0ye 70 live in spite Of the hostile
Indians and scarcity Of food. The
men would 20 out in little punches
and cultivate and plant their crops al
ways leaving a guard against the In
dams at the fort for the women. One
evening as Robert Gordon and his son
were returning from some such duty
in the fields, several Indians fell upon
them about a quarter Of a mile from
the big gate and murdered both faith
er and son. They were buried in
the same grave. and from it has
sprung Buffalo Cemetery and Church.
An old elm tree and a few stones
mark the fertilization Of owe a hun
bred years ago, and the old spring
which supplied the settlers with wat
er is still flowing.
ID. A. RS Present Memorial
Hundreds Of people gathered at the
old fort Sunday afternoon for the
dedication services of the D. A.
IS, who presented a large monu-
ment to the memory Of the pioneer
leader, Robert Gordon.
W. W. Fry, of Mexico, and his
cousin, Issac Orr, Of St. Louis, made
two Of the principal speeches Of the
day.
The splendid Boy Scout organization
Of Louisiana with their large band
and uniforms added much to the pro-
gramme.
Miss Mildred Burlington, Of Mexico,
was chosen to unveil the gift and as
Old Glory was lifted by her the in
scription on the statute was revealed
10 the crowd, She is the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. W. Burlington, of
this city.
