Golden Book" three nominations of
the legion Of hoonr, two military med

legion of honor are the Rev. Father
Catlin, professor at the seminary, a

Recently he came to Rome on short
leave after nearly three years fighting

Y HAVE received large number of
 communications from various so-

T HAVE received 8 large number or
 communications from various so-
 cieties and fraternal organizations
 in all parts of the country, protesting
 against an alleged discrimination by the War Department in allowing the
 Young Mems Christian Association
 and the Knights of Columbus to erect
 recreation buildings inside the lines of the cantonments and National Guard training camps, while forold-
 ding other societies the same prlVll- ege. These letters and protests nave become so numerous that I have de- cided to make a public statement to clear away the misunderstanding
 which apparently exists.
 Ever since the plans for the can- comments and training camps were first made the War Department has been flooded with requests from all sorts of organizations to erect spe- cial buildings inside the military res- ervations. Various religious denom- nations. a large number of lodges and fraternties, and many athletic and recreational clubs have petitioned us, each seeking>to minister exclu- sively to it's own membership inside the camps. To say nothing of the confusion which the admission Of these various societies and orders would involve, it would, of course, be physically impossible, from the standpoint of available space, to al- low all of them to erect buildings within the camps. It seemed, there- fore, a fair and reasonable solution of the problem to admit the two or which had already been identified with recreational work within military. camps, to wit. the Young Mems Christian Association and the Knights of Columbus. Both served, the soldiers along social lines on the Mexican bor- der last summer, without regard to any question of membership. On this condition, therefore, that they would not limit their activities to a par ticular constituency, and that their buildings would at all times and> for all meetings be open to the entire camp, they were allowed admission to he military reservations.
 The Young Mems Christian Asso- ciation represents the Protestant de- which will constitute roughly 60 per cent. of our new Army. the work of this organization in all military camps both in Canada and abroad is too we'll known to re- quire comment. The Knights of Col

 For assaulting Michael Abackertis on Center street last evening Charles Pathus was arrested and appeared in court this morning. His case was con- tlnued until tomorrow morning as Abackertis was so badly beaten up that he was unable to testify.
 Louis Grosko, charged with violat- ing the motor vehicle law by running his car without license on Broad street last evening was fined $3 with out costs. He left his car standing in the middle of the street with the engine running Officer McAvoy who made the arrest testified that he asked the defendent where his license was and that he told him it was in his other clothes.
 Peter Wfobel, was charged with in- toxication and having no light on his wagon after sunset. He was arrested about 7:30 o'clock last evening by Officer Moon. who testified that he told Wrobel to get a light and go home but that the driver objected. He got on the seat of the wagon and took the relns away from the de- fendant and drove him to the police station, he said.

Has Grown Since Its Opening and
 Will Continue to Grow.
 That Museum Week." at the Mu- scum of Natural History and Art of the New Britain Institute was a suc- cess, has been demonstrated by the fact that 2,423 persons were visitors between October 29 and November 3. In the six days that the Museum cele- brated this event, it not only had the largest attendance for single week since it's opening, not eighteen months ago, but it also receiYsd the largest number of gifts to be made to 1t dur ing any one week. The donations were of nature which will largely increase several of the collections.
 Since it's opening to the public on- May 31st, 1916, the Institute Museum has grown, under the direction of Curator E.. Birmingham Schurr, to twice it's original size in the number of exhibits. Within the next few weeks other additions will be made which will greatly increase the Mu- seum's value to teachers and school children. It is a wonderful place to go for instruction and entertainment, a fact which is proven by the large attendance it constantly enjoys. It is doubtful if any museum in New Eng land is more popular with the people.

WHY Y. M. CA. AND K. OF (. HAVE
 SUPPORT OF U. 5. WAR DEPARTMENT
Secretary Organizations sod

umbus represent the Catholic denom- | ination, which will constitute perhaps l 35 per cent. of the new Army. While this society is fraternal organiza- tion, it will sustain exactly the same relation to the camps as is sustained 1 by the Young Mems Christian Asso- ciation and will hold no meetings to
 which all the troops in the camps are
 not invited, regardless of religious or
 other preferences The Young Mems
 Hebrew Association in it's recreation
 al work has identified itself with the
 Young Mems Christian Association, and 1t seems to me that this task of m1nistering to the social needs of the soldiers within the camps has been met. fully, and in a way which will not needlessly complicate the machin- cry of camp organization.
 It seems to me- moreover, that the communities near by the camps
 where the soldiers will undoubtedly spend much of such leisure time as IS allowed them, present genuine op- portunity to those various soclecles and organizations, which have sought admission to the camps. ExperAence has shown that the inst1nct1Ve desire of a soldier with an hour or Tree tune lis to Ego to town," if the town Is only a crossroads For this reason. there fore the commission on traintng-camp activities, with my approval and un- der my direction, has given great deal of time and thought to the task of organizing these towns and cities along recreational and social lines. Local committees have been appoint ed in each such community, and the attempt has been made to harness up the lodges, churches, clubs, and oth- CT local groups and organizations, with the men in the camp. This, it seems to me, is an opportunity for service which can not wisely be over looked. Each lodge, church, and fraternity can look ut for the needs of it's own soldier membership, and where local groups are unable finan- cially to provide adequately for this task the larger organization of the church. or fraternity, as the case may be, can como to the rescue with more ample means.
 Indeed there Is so large 8 task be- fore us in surrounding our troops with a healthy environment, and the emer- gency is so great that trust that all gfoups can cooperate in a cordial spirit of loyalty and fellowship, re- gardless of any differences of race, creed, or aff1liation.
