eral wounded Canadian officers. It was not their wounds or pain that was their concern, 1t was how soon would they heal, so that they might resume their places with their companions on the battle front, he said.
 eff this Is the Canadian spirit, why can't we adopt it?" How much is 1t worth to sit at home and escape those things which the men on the battle fields have been unable to do?"o the speaker asked.
 Another of MT. Smiths questions that brought forth applause was What is money worth anyhow? Why in Gods name don't we let it go when 1t means so much for our liberty 9"
 In concluding his remarks Mr. Smith said that no worker should go about with 8 club, but 1t should be remembered that this country is out to win this war, and also to do all we can for the men who are fighting so bravely on foreign fields, where tragedy has brought so much de- structlon and ruin.
 Chairman Pease in bringing the rally to close, urged the team work CTS to use MT. Smiths remarks as an 1nSplTdL1Ou tO Suluo Llen1 III Ln01r work. He called attention to the noon-day luncheons of the Y. M. c. A. workers Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday and the final rally to be held with the K. of c. workers in the Elks home at 6:15 o'clock Friday evening.
 Some Expect More Than $85 1000.
 With enthusiasm on all sides, the campaign opened last evening at the luncheon at the Elks club. On one side was pessimism displayed by the team workers that success would not crown the undertakings, and many went so far as to predict that the sum would be in excess of $65, 900. At the outset of the meeting E. Allen Moore made a few remarks, in which he said he was glad to see the Y. M. c. A. and the K. of c. aligned in the great movement. He spoke of the work the general committee had done and in it's selection of Herbert H.. Pease as general director the com- mittee felt that the proper man to be at the helm had been selected.
 General Director Pease was ex-

ment for the common cause of the government. MT. Smith assured his listeners that all that Is heard con- corning La Toilette Socialism and the l. W. w. was true.
 It was a great thing to see Protes- tant and Catholic organiza ations work ing hand and hand against such move ments as are fostered by Eugene V. Debs, Big Bilp' Hayward the I. w. w. and similar institutions. The speaker said that he did not intend to speak of the aims of the Y. M. c. A. or the K. of C.. but he was sure that the $65,0OO and more would be realized in the campaign. "In the North Sea, the greatest naval power in the country, has kept the Germans bottled up; but for this the war would have terminated long ago, and the United States would be paying a heavy war debt," he said. we owe a heavy debt to England and we also owe a heavy debt of obligation to France for the gallant stand 1t has made" MT. Smith said.
 In speaking of the work of the cam paign, MT. Smith said that any man who will refuse to assist the cause, is nothing more than a German SOL dier. The present campaign, the speaker said, Is probably not the last time that the workers will assemb mble; they may be called upon to meet within year, but they should con- t1nue to do so until the war is ended. "A man who will refuse to give his money to the cause has no right to enjoy respect in the community in which he lives." MT. Smith said, while applause accompanied the remarks.
 Mr. Smith said that within the past few weeks, the men in the financial world have sustained losses and many man was not able to say he was worth as much on paper as hereto fore. This would prompt some men to think that they should not con- tribute as liberally as when the sun shine of the almighty dollar was throwing it's most brilliant rays over them. and they would be inclined to use this as a cloak under which to hide their obligations to their coun- try MT. Smith told of being in Mon treal, Canada, a few weeks ago, and on the occasion he encountered sev-

tended a hearty greeting when he of the campaign. He said he was proud to be selected as the head of such 8 movement, which was certain of success. He clearly outlined the plan for the collection of money and the manner of extending the pledge card method
 P. F. King. of the Knights of Co., lumbus, delivered a short and in structive address, in which he called attention to the luncheon to be held every evening at 6:15 o'clock at the K. of c. rooms, and to which hearty invitation was extended to the Y. M. C. A. workers. He assured his audi tors that the K. of c. is always will ing to do it's share of any movement that was for the United States gov ernment.
 Seated at the speakers table were the following: General Director H. Fl. Pease, E. Allen Moore, c. F. Smith, Rev. John T. Winters, Rev. J. Leo Sullivan, Rev. Warren F. Cook, F. G. Platt, Mayor G. A. Quigley, Judge w. F. Mangan, P. F. King and F. s. Chamberlain. Through an evident mis- understanding George B. Chandler was not present.
 After the workers had partaken of a meal that was appetizing, Chair man Pease announced that the head quarters for the Y. M. c. A. workers would be at the War Bureau in City hall. and then he introduced Mayor 1 Quigley.

 A single inning, the fourth, produced all of the New Yorkers' runs Smiths wild throw on a possible double play which would have retired the side caused Rudolph to weaken and by three singles, a double and a triple the visitors gained their winning total. Allen and Barnes held them runiess subsequently,.
 The Braves had gained an. early lead of two runs by hitting Anderson hard in the third inning and, after adding another run off Sallee in the fourth, were within striking distance of tieing and winning runs in the sixth. but were retired with three on bases.
 The game was typical early season contest, with snow fringing the field, a cold wind blowing and a trace of rain in the air. The usual opening ceremonies gained color from the presence of bIuejackets and marines who took part in the march to the fagpoie preliminary to raising Old Glory. while an airp1ane circled over head.
