SOLDIERS ALONE
TILL THEY GET ABROAD

Observation-Disclosures of Amer
lea if you would help the soldier in
the training camps-let him alone"
This was the advice given by Brig
adler General Edward F. Glenn to a
group of Indianapolis women at a
women's patriotic mass meeting. The
women had gathered to hear how they
might help the 1000 men at Fort
Harrison. The general then qualified
his advice to let the soldiers alone
until they get on the other side. Then
they will need all the delicacies and
sympathy woman can give.
"The American soldier, when let
alone, is the most peaceful and uncom-
planning animal in the world" said
General Glenn, a grizzled veteran of
many tropical campaigns "You don't
think much of him in peace times, but
in time of war you fall over your
elves to do something for him-you
don't know what it is, but it is pretty
certain to be bad for him.
"Please don't send thing to eat out
to the fort-they have all they need.
We are doing the very best we can
for these boys and we are going to
give them, and your boys-the boys
these student officers will command
sporting chance and that is all any,
body can ask.
Vixen they get abroad they will
be another matter. You will want
them surrounded as much as possible
with home influences. The best way
to do this is to send them things to
read-books, magazines, newspapers,
the various little luxuries that the
government does not provide as
scissors and thimbles. Send him let
ters. Trust the Y. M. C.. A. and sup
port the Red Cross"

SUNNY TENNESSEE IN VERSE.

Grantland Rice gives no advice in
what he writes of Tennessee. He
simply tells of southern bellies and
how from home he once did roam.
Tween you and me, his heart must
be way back in Sunny Tennessee, be-
cause he sings:
SIS the sunshine any brighter
From the years that used to be?
Is the moondrift any softer
Down in Sunny Tennessee
Are the song birds any sweeter,
AS they warble to their mates?
Are the mountains any higher
Than they are in other states?
For you understand the feeling
If you've ever had to roam,
The sky is always bluer
: And the old-time friends seem truer,
When a fellow thinks of home.
."When the way take is weary
Through the shadow of the years,
When the day has seen my sorrow
And the dark has known my fears,
Then | turn to you and whisper:
0, the night has grown so deep
Where | thought Fame's light was
fiaring
Only ghosts and shadows creep;
Can't you see Pm lonesome for you
Where the way of Fate is stark?
Wont you call me home, o Mother,
Call your boy in from the dark"

1T PAYS TO ADVERTISE"

more in demand than the sombre

Auditorium tonight.
1T Pays to Advertise" is a busi-
ness play. and therefore appeals
strongly To men But the plot is
also romantic enough to win enthus-
laam from the feminine portion of an
audience. The farce is from the
pens of Roi Cooper Meprue and Wal

forth one of the most laughable
plays presented in recent years.

SUNDAYS
 SERMONS

Helping Where Needed Me-" was the theme for discourse at the Mehto- dist church last night.
 Rev. Patton said:
 If men were as sincere to help where they are most needed as they should be, or as God would have them to be, it would settle many of our most perplexing problems. It would solve the difficult matter of obtaining mon for certain kinds of labor while there is, under the present conditions, an over supply in another. God saw it in many instances to remove men from their pleasant home environments and vocation and carry them to distant lands in order to make provision for a coming necessity. The selling of Jo- scph into Egypt is but one of a long series of such events. Some have seen only the dark side of such examples, but God in his sacrificing love has seen fit that man take into account the good of humanity and not magnify his own pleasures or desires in life. It is not pleasant for the physician, for in- stance, to be awakened in the middle of the night and go long distances to administer to the needs of suffering humanity, nevertheless, society at once realizes that he is not worthy of his vocation if he does not arise and face the most bitter storm. If we apply this principle to the religion of Jesus Christ. we at once see that the author of the statement, Hebrews 2:3, is jus tifed in saying, "How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salyation?'
