PRAISE FROM GEN. KUHN
STIMULUS FDRY INCA.
Welfare Features Are Now q Very
Important Part Of the Soldiers
Life at Camp.

The enthusiastic Endorsement and
praise which Gen. Kuhn has given the
Y. M. c. A. at camp has given stimulus
to that work here and has concentrated
interest among the soldiers in the ef-
forts being made to raise the funds
necessary to carry II on without any
retrenchment.
over five hundred business men from
Baltimore visited Camp Meade Friday,
saw buildings and heard about the plan
or work OF the association.
1t Is clear from what Gen. Kuhn has
said and from what others have OBJ
served that the association activities
are OF sort so important that IL there
were no organization Of generous and
patriotic men to put up the money the
government itself would have to tackle
the proposition. The welfare features
sucn as the association provides are
now 50 much part or the life in camp
that IT would be hard to imagine the
place without them.
The impression among officers and
men Is that Gen. Kuhn put II Just right
when he said:

MOTHER IS BEST FRIEND
TO THE BOYS IN KHAKI
More Frequent Letters to the One
Who Needs Cheer at This Time
Is Soldiers Duty.

We make many friends as we go
through life. Some are friends while
you have money others are our friends
because our friendship is worth having
But take the word friend and analyze
1t. How many of the different mean
ings can you find that will compare
to the one and only friend that God
created as your best friend. The an
swer Is short and sweet There is no
friend in this wide world who Is any
better friend than the khaki-clad war
fiors mother. Find one IL you can and
TIL prove to you that you are wrong.
Noted men in all walks Of life have
laid their claims to success at the door
Of their mothers. What about you.
nephews of Uncle Sam? DID not your
beloved mother, the purest of Gods
creations kiss you and bid you God
speed" when you went off to do your
bit? Did it hurt her to see you go,
maybe never to return? 1t did, and IL
hurt her deeply. but, with strong
the cause that will soon spell victory.
Khat have you done in return?
Have You Kept Your PromiseP
Have you kept your promise to her
that you would keep clean in mind,
word and deed. and. above all, that you
would send her q letter or a card OF
cheer to let her know you think of
her, even though other duties occupy
your mind?
When did you last write home to your
gray-haired mother? Wasn't she proud
to hear from her absent soldier boy?
OF course she was, prouder than the
NJ mr. arf ha
Have you ever thought of the pain and
suffering she endured to make you
what you are? Is 1t too much then TO
mail her your letter OF cheer?
Think how her love and faith through
all these years has never changed or fall
tered. You are the pride of her loving
heart, as you were in your childhood,
when, as a babe, needing the care Of a
forter, your inspiration in all that is pure
and clean, and. above ALL she was, as she
is today, your mother; she still believes
that you will make something out of your
many turns She hasn't lost faith In you,
as your friends OF the hour will after
your money is gone.
None Can Take Her Place.
You will never find any one in this
world of warning nations who can take
the place of mother. Your wife. baby or
0WSctHcATt, al nave pace In your nearts
but none of them can give you what your
mother already has suffered and given
you
So now, while the country is in state
Of war, when mothers. fathers, brothers
and sisters are longing for the ones they
dearly love, why not sit down one or two
days out of each week and write home?
Tell them all about it; how you like the
life, the experience, etc. Let them know
that their soldier boy has not forgotten
them, and he will f1nd that their love and
letters Of cheer will follow him when their
love is most needed.
So let 1t be duty to every one of you,
Yankee fighters, to write your mother
once or twice week and let her know
that his mother is not forgotten by the
boy she can't forget
