Selber of Phoenix several hun dred books were collected from the citizens and sent to us. We also received from Tucson some victrola records, from Morenci and some smoking tobacco from the Red Cross at Phoenix. But nine months has practical ly exhausted our equipment, and now that we will soon have two thousand men in the regi- ment we will need to enlarge our hall and put in a moving picture machine and other things to furnish the men with amusement and keep them in camp when they are off duty. We have organized a school of instructions on military sub- jects and three evenings a week are devoted to lectures by off, cers who have specialized in their line, also medical officers who lecture on the body and its care. The other three nights are taken up with lectures on various subjects, amateur plays smokers, and on Sunday nights we have the young mems Christian Endeavor followed by a sermon or a lecture.
 Now what I want is a liberal contribution from the people of Arizona in order that I may be able to provide things neces- sary for the entertainment and edification of our boys. I am asking this with the approval of my commanding officer.
 My books are audited every thirty days and there is also an amusement committee of which I am chairman, appointed and authorized to receive and ex- pend funds. So please make your checks payable to the Amusement Committee, First Arizona Infantry, and mail me today lest ye forget.
 With the welfare of your boy at heart, I am,

 FOR BOYS AT FRONT
First Ariz. Infantry,

Naco. Ariz., May ', 1917. Dear Editor:
 If you will allow me a little space in your valuable paper 1 would like to tell your good people what am trying to do for "our boys" as Chaplain of the First Arizona Infantry.
 No doubt there are but few people who know the relations of Chaplain to his regiment. Consequently he does not have the cooperation of the people which makes it impossible for him to do his best work. Briefly the duty of a chaplain is to hold religious services on Sunday, bury the dead, and make a re- port each month to the War De- partment of the births, deaths, baptisms and marriages.
 But no man, if he is a hustler and really interested in the wei fare of men, can be satisfied with the mere performance of the above prescribed duties. He is ever on the alert and ready to help the boys out of their diff culties. In fact he is the one of fcer of the regiment who may be best approached by the men at all times and under all cir cumstances, with the assurance that they will receive all the sympathy and help which their particular case may merit.
 And then you have to be on the lookout for the boy who has the wrong conception of what it takes to make a good soldier. So many get the idea that in order to be good soldier one must be tough; drink, gam, ble, swear etc. There never was greater mistake. As a rule our boys are morally clean but of course, a tough will slip in occasionally and make his in- fluence felt for while but a few months military discipline usually works wonders with him.
 A great many people think the army is detrimental to a young mans character. I hon estly say thatif I had dozen sons 1 would urge them to take military training. Of course he is exposed to many evils, but if | he has been properly trained in l the home he will not yield tol
Williams news., 1917-05-17

would in civilian life. In fact the only way to develop char acter is by coming in contact with evil and overcoming it. The principle must be taught and developed in childhood but if boy has not had this train ing in the home, then military discipline will be of great bene- fit to him.
 Military training IS not all. These boys must have clean, wholesome recreation and a place where they can read, write, play games, etc., and 1 am glad to say that we have such a place in our camp. The Hall was built last July and dedicated to the men of the First Arizona Infantry. and for the past nine months it has been in use day and night. It is we'll seated and lighted and equipped with games, books, stationery, and victrolas, etc. Also a stage for amateur plays a post office, canteen, barber shop and laundry.
 Last July when I contemplat- ed this building for the boys 1 found that the government did not furnish anything of the kind in the field. Therefore I was up against it for funds. So l took the matter up with the Chambers of Commerce of the State of Arizona, but, to my great surprise did not receive a single cent from any of them.
 Of course I naturally felt that Arizona was not interested in the welfare of her regiment but after thinking the matter over I finally gave her the benefit of the doubt by concluding that she just did not understand the circumstances and the need of the hall.
 We'll I might have given up the project then and there but | not being used to defeat I walk ed bravely into the city of Douglas one morning and walk ed out that evening with nearly four hundred dollars and all kinds of games, writing mater ial, and a one hundred and sev- enty dollar victrola. But my cash was not sufficient for the hall, so I made a trip to Bisbee, where I raised forty dollars in forty minutes and with a big donation from the Cochise Lumber company in Warren I was able to build my hall and it to the men.

Lithographer Will Superin-
tend Two Departments.

r. L. Dewar has been appointed gen.
eral manager of the job printing de-
partment of the Missoulan Publishing
company. He will also have charge
OF the lithographlng department, of
which he has been the head ever since
the department was started three
years ago. The new superintendent
Is we'll known TO the trade throughout
the state and Is we'll qualified in ev-
cry way to turn out the highest class
of work. AS head of the lithograph-
ing department he has helped to build
up the big business of the company
and his large acquaintance with the
trade is a. big asset to him now in
taking charge OF the two departments.
The merging OF the two departments
under the one head has been decided
on in order to insure the public bet
ter service in the future. Orders that
are wanted in a rush can be put
through without the delay of having
them pass through two departments
as in the past.
Mr.. Dewar has had practical expe-
rience in each of the departments of
which he will be in charge. He was
brought up in the printing trade and
his more recent experience in the lith-
ographing business gives him the
knowledge that few lave for this i'm
portant position.
