Many. Are Buying
Red Cross Seals

The campaign for the sale OF Red
Gross Christmas seals is progressing
nicely with prospects that the fall
quota of $4,000 which have been re-
ceived by the local society, will be
disposed of. In times of peace t,s,er-
culosis has been pronounced the dis
ease that kills most and is among the
chief causes of poverty. In times of
war 1t must be fought doubly hard
to strengthen the army, conserve the
strength Of the nation and thereby
hasten victory.
This is time OF emergency and
every state. county and town nedds
to do its part. Red Cross seals are
sold for the purpose of combating the
disease wherever found and the pur.
chase of these little stickers aids in
this great work.

HO! YOU FRENCH TEACHERS

There are number of the enlisted
men and officers in Camp Hancock
who have had three years or more
of French at College or University.
number Of teachers of French are
no doubt to be found among them.
We appeal to these men to report
either to Trench ana Camp, or to
the nearest Y. M. G.. A. building.
While more than one thousand men
are studying French, there are thous-
ands of others who would be glad for
elementary instruction, but the great
est difficulty of the Y, M. c. A. is
to discover sufficient number of
competent French teachers.
Professor Foster has two normal
classes in French, teaching teachers,
He will he glad t. organize number
of other such classes. provided cap
able men willing to give their time to
instruction in French win signify their
willingness to teach. Here is chance
for an important service that will be
greatly appreciated.

Mon English Speaking Men at
Camp Hancock

With every increment of drafted men
from Camp Meade and elsewhere comes
a considerable number of foreign-born
men, and some of the foreigners who
but imperfectly speak the English lam
guage. OF the fourteen and one half mill
lions of men in America. of foreign birth,
one million and one-haIf are IN Penn
sylvania 1t is not strange therefore
that many Of these naturalized citizens
should come into our camps under the
transcription law. Our duty, indeed a
military necessity, is to teach these men
the English language so that they may
quickly understand the commands OF
their officers. and be able to work in
harmony with the men in their squad or
company.
The Young Mems Christian Association
has for years taught English to foreign
born peoples. Every year in Pennsylva-
MIA, about three thousand non English
speaking men, are taught to speak and
read the English language in the evening
schools of the Y. M G. A. The associa-
ton has q simple method by which any
American of high school training can
teach elementary English to persons OF
any foreign speech.
A few classes have already been form
ed in the camp, and the association is go
ing to organize others as soon as per-
mission can be secured and arrangements
made.
