Provost Marshal General Crowder

big DRIVE
ON This WEEK
Montgomery County Has Not Failed
Our Boys at the Front-Shs
Must Not Now

The big drive Of the United Was
Work Campaign is on this week and
the various committees in this city
and county are busy at work. Chair
man Marcus A. Prewitt is busy as he
can be and feels confident of the
success of the campaign. This coun-
tvs quota is approximately $4,000
and it is confidently believed that
Montgomery will go way cover the
top" as she has done in every other
campaign for war funds. A house to
house canvass will be made and it 10
hoped the soliciting committees will
be heartily received and co-operated
with.
The coming of peace brings great
responsibilities. The pages of history
are filed with bitter examples which
prove that the reconstruction period
following bloody warfare may be
even more dangerous to the life of
nation than the period of actual
strife.
DR.. John R. Mott of New York, d.
rector general of the campaign says,
"The period of rehabilitation must
not be a period of Generalization"
American troops cannot be brought
home under two years. This is the
statement of army and navy officials.
During that time our boys over there
and over here must be furnished the
right sort of diversion to counterfeit
the temptations which go with the
dull monotony of army and navy life
in peace times.
Montgomery county has never
failed her sons at the front-she will
not-she MUST NOT NOW.

First Thing Done for Recruit Is
To Furnish Writing Material.

An interesting and important phase
of the "Y' work being done in Camp
Funston is that of Building No. s.,
which has for it's constituency the
brigade and the receiving station,
thru which all the new recruits pass
upon their arrival in camp. Here the
men have their introduction to the
Army Y. Immediately upon their ar
rival in camp they are assigned to a
barracks for the short period inter-
vening before being taken to the re-
ceiving station for examination.
As soon as they have been assigned
to their temporary hunks they are
gathered together by the Y men and
given a friendly talk. Among other
things they are told how to dispose of
their clothing, being advised to give
them to the Belgian relief. They are
told something of the things that await
them in the immediate future, and re-
assured as to the kind of treatment
they will receive at the hands of med
ical officers and others who will di-
rect the examination.
Writing material is distributed to
them and they are urged to write
home at once, while awaiting their
examination. One of their number

of the days news as it appears in the

Many questions are answered, and
the men are cordially invited to the
building as soon as they are allowed
to- leave barracks. They come in
