War Time RISKS
Are Exaggerated
Soldiers Not More Liable to Lose
Limbs Than in Hazardous
Occupations at Home.

Not more than one man In thirty
has been killed during the past year
On the battle fields of Europe. the Vir-
Sinia Council of Defense declares, in
n statement just issued urging the peo-
pie not to worry over the welfare
OF American soldiers. Fifteen men out
Of every sixteen in the allied armies
have been safe through three years OF
fighting. The death rate from disease
Is less than in peace times, and only
one man in 500 loses limb-a risk
that Is no greater than in hazardous
occupations at home.
The impression is current In
America" the statement says, that the
present war Is so destructive of human
life that the drafting OF an American
youth means his probable. II not al
most certain death or permanent MAIN
ing. Statements have been publish ed
that half the men that go into the
trenches never come out alive. This
impression is false, and tho statements
are lies.
LAS matter Of fact, the death ratio
in tho allied armies on the western
front is only about three times that
among men OF the Same age in civil
life. Statistics proving this statement
have been compiled by the committee
on Public Information from the report
of NJ. Tardieu. French high commits
sioner. and others. 1t Is true that in
tho first year of the war. with the al
lies unprepared, the mortality was
great because Of the superiority OF the
Germans in ammunitions and artillery.
This situation. however, has been
removed. and the allies have the pre-
pondcrance of guns and ammunition.
AS to the health OF the soldiers In
camp. 1t is better than at home. be-
cause OF the healthy condition OF life
and scientific -anitation."

'M'GlLL CATHOLIC UNION
TO HOLD ANNUAL MEETING
Wnr Work Policy VIII Be Outlined To-
NfSht-Bishop O'Conncii Expected
to Make -Address.

The annual meeting OF the McGiI
Catholic Union will be held to-
night at sis o'clock in the AIcGill
auditorium. 1t is expected that large
number OF the members will BIO present
These annual meetings. generally bring
out the full membership OF the union
AS the meeting is not only devoted to
the election of officers. but Is the time
when the policy of the union for the
ensuing year Is determined. Particu-
larly will this be the case at this
meeting, as many matters Of impor-
lance have taken place during the past
year that vitality affect the union
About 10 per cent of the membership
is now in the service of the United
States. and the many interests that are
dependent upon the young men have
suffered. Practically the entire basket
ball and baseball teams are with the
colors. a determined effort will be
made this year. however. to continue
the athletic interests of the union, as
the continuation of athletics is a true
form of preparedness for those who
have not as yet been called to serve
their country.
During the past year the union has
been actively engaged in extending a
welcome to the troops in the city.
Recognizing the value of a centrally
located recreation headquarters for the
soldiers. the entire facilities of the
club rooms We're thrown open to the
Maryland and New York troops who
have been doing guard duty in Rich
mond. That this action was appre-
ciated was shown by the large number
of the men who daily awaited them
selves Of this privilege.
With the establishment OF Camp Lee
and the large number Of soldiers, who
will be in Richmond from that camp, 1t
is expected that the McGill club rooms
will be the headquarters for the
knights OF Columbus war camp work.
1t is thought that the union will es-
tablish headquarters at Its club rooms,
where the comfort and pleasure of the
men from Camp Lee will be looked
after.
The officers who served during the
past year are: James NJ. Purcell, presi-
dent; Thomas a. Reddin, vice-presi-
dent: Thomas l.. Cox. treasurer; Ben
jamin A. Leigers. secretary. 1t is hoped
that Rt. Rev. D. j. O'Connell, who
is honorary president OF the union, will
be present, to give short talk to the
members.

MUST SET UP AUTHORITY
AND DISCIPLINE OF HOME
These arc but glimpses into what Is
going on. I could state facts even
moro alarming because they reveal tho
wholesale and prevalent nature of tho
evil that Is attacking our homes. What
shall we do about it? We must set
up again the authority and discipline of
the home. Nothing else will avail AS
long as young girls are permitted to
ciothe themselves as they please and
go where they please, and when they
please. we must prepare to suffer the
consequences. Our only hope Is in the
Intelligent and loving instruction of
discipline Of the parents. We must
warn them plainly against the danger
Of violating the social conventions, we
must forbid their walking the streets
day and night without restraint and
without chaperonage; and we must
throw around them all the holy in
nuences of the home. And we must,
above all, realize that not only other
girls In tho community are in danger,
but the girls In ouf own homes as we'll
If there ever was time when we need
to warn and instruct and protect our
girls. that tfme is now. when patrio-
tic sentiment abets general social

I'VE must. then. gather up nil our
resources Of faith and devotion and
strength and consecrate them to tho
salvation OF our boys and girls, to the
defense of the home against the foes
that seek the ruin of Its children.
General Pershing is reported to have
said: 1 may not win a victory on the
field Of battle. but am determined
by as much as in me lies. to bring our
boys back from tho war as cleansand

our prayer and our earnest effort and

task Of saving our homes from the
gravest peril that ever threatened
them.
