 Worlds Best Loved Trademark.
 This war has made us think harC and fast. Your boy or your neigh bor's boy or some boy you know an6 love has been called to do his share in the big job of policing the world fol democracy and human liberty. Is i any comfort to you to know that wher ever his duty may call him your boy will nave a friend that will serve him in body, mind and soul? Are you glad to know that this friend will place books and magazines at his disposal organize classes to teach him what ever he wants to learn, give him 6

Did yoI realize that the association provide, athletic equipment for his favoritt games, teaches him games if he knowt none and holds concerts, lectures movies, Bible classes, dramatic enter tainments and every kind of whole some amusement to keep him interest ed? Are you glad to know that thii friend will go with him overseas, hell to shield him from score of difficult and dangerous temptations and follow him right up to the front line trenct and beyond 1t? The last contact the soldier has with this life he loves SC we'll is a cup of tea given him by the Y. M. c. A free just before he goei lover the top" to a hand to hand strug gle with the enemy.

 If every thinking citizen could see with his or her own eyes something of the actual work being done for oul men by the association there would be no question of the Y. M. c.

fOrego coveted possessions or even ne cessities. The work must go on, be- cause there is no one thing that con- tributes so much to the spirit and ef- fciency of the troops. The Y. M. c. 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 KaIeidoscopic Work.
 In all the big cities in France where our men pass through in large num- bers, the Y. M. c. A. is operating hostels, where they can get beds and meals at a minimum cost. In London the American Y. NJ c. A. mas erected large building for our soldiers and a clubhouse for American officers.
 There are Y. NJ. c. A. dugouts right behind the front line trenches, where the soldiers can get hot drinks, crack CTS and ether comforts at all hours.
 Over 2,000 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 big 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 im- portance of this service can be esti- mated by the fact that at least 50,000 soldiers are on leave in London every week. Over half of these sleep in Y. M. 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 2,500 in the other encampments. The association is run ming a p week entertainment circuit among the camps and is paying Is companies of entertainers, who are travelling to 30 camps performing be- fore the men.
 In each of the draft camps the Y. NJ. c. A. has ten secretaries engaged in educational work. The association is seeing to it that every man who cannot speak English is taught to do 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.
 Of GA Y. M. 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 its 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. M. c. A. is supervising athletics on 120 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

least Is on its way to you. Each one of our 16 cantonments, where the new national army Is being trained, is using more than a million sheets oi this paper every month. In the draft army alone that means 16,000,000 fila
 ments of love every month reaching out from the great encampment where the men are being trained into the greatest army this nation has ever dreamed and binding them to the hearts at home. Multiply that by thinking of all the other places where Uncle Sam has men with the lag-iI navy yards, on the high seas, in arse

In each of these a soldier was strum- ming on 8 piano; others were reading books and magazines; hundreds were writing letters home. Behind the raised counter at one end three or four young men were busy passing out notepaper and envelopes, selling stamps and weighing parcels, which the men were sending home. One of the soldiers said to me as I stood in the tent used chiefly by men from Iowa: "We came all the way here from Des Moines, and we were mighty lonely. Then we found this Y. M. C.. A. on the job, and it's been home and more than a home to us. It gave us what we wanted when we needed it most. We'll never forget 1t. The boys best friend Is the Y. M. c. A"
 Fine, cIean-cut, Outstanding Fellows.
 How close those benches were pack ed with men, bending over the long tables absorbed in their writing! What an appeal to the sympathies those great groups of soldiers make! Fine, clean-cut, upstanding fellows, some of them mere boys, one thinks immediately of the sacrifice they have made for the rest of us and how pre- cious they are to some one back home. Somewhere, in far off farm or village or city street, there are parents or brothers or wives who would give all they possess for one glimpse of those sunburned faces as you and I see them on their last night before going across. And it was with a throb of the heart that l watched them, bent over their letter paper, in one after another of those seven big tents.
 These were the tents of the Y. M. c. A. On that last night in America the association was serving the soldiers in the best of all ways-giving them an opportunity to write home. On previous nights they had enjoyed box ing bouts, movies, concerts, dramatics and a score of healthy entertainments as well as religious meetings. But on this last night home ties were strong est. And perhaps that is the keynote of the splendid work the Y. M. c. A. is doing among our men in uniform keeping them in touch with home.
 Magic Words, "With the CoIors."
 In these times there are some let ters that mean more to us than any we have ever read before. They are written on sheets of paper stamped | with the Stars and Stripes and the red triangle of the Y. M. c. A., and | they bear the magic words, With the Colors." There are many more than million such letters in the mails now while you read this. Perhaps one at

It had been raining hard in the afternoon-a cold, steady autumn downpour-aHd there was nothing to suggest the rainbow in the outward aspect of the camp. Lines and lines of sodden- canvas housed 27OOO men, gathered from 27 different states. The ground was dotted with pools and quagmires. Under the wet canvas it was damp and cold, with penetrating chill. Lit by fickering candles, the tents were far from cheer full shelter for a mans last night in his native land.
 But there were seven big tents where electric lights, numbers and friendliness made the night pleasant.

necessity of the placing, wherever neces- sary, by state police or consta abulary, mu- nicipal police or private watchmen, the National Guard now performing the duty Of guarding bridges, tunnels, plants of private corporations, public and private utilities, etc.
 Pursuant to war department instruc- tions, one-third of the National Guard, not already in federal service, will be drafted by July 15; the second third July p, and the remaining third August 5. Pre- lininary thereto, and, indeed, anticipating the complete drafting of the National Guard of the states comprising the south eastern department into federal service, I have caused instructions to be sent to al commanding officers to render imne- diate reports upon all public utilities, from the guarding Of which National Guard units may be immediately with drawn. It is intended to relieve such guards and to return them to their regi- ments within the next two weeks. It will be necessary similarly to relieve, before August 5, all other National Guard units guarding utilities as above referred to. except, possibly, those guarding public works of vital national importance.

 The corporations heretofore guarded by men from scattered detachments are not expected to raise any objection to the withdrawal of the Natoinal Guard. In fact, as stated by officers at headquar- ters today, the corporations have been benefited beyond expectations and the National Guard has suffered in loss of morale and training.
 The governors of the nine states of the department of the southeast were notified several days ago that such withdrawal of troops was contemplated. Letters from General Wood were sent them as follows: Headquarters, Southeastern Department,
