LARGEST NUMBER YET
 AT SUNDAY BREAKFAST

While there have been splendid crowds at the Y. M. c. A. Sunday breakfasts for the men in uniform. the highest recorded attendance was pres ent yesterday at s.15 o'clock when fully one hundred occupied seats at the ta- bIes in the "Y' lobby. It was neces- sary to bring in several extra chairs i1 the emergency, and the menu Of baked beans fish balls. bread. butter, doughnuts and coffee was thoroughly enjoyed by those who partoek. Wo- men of the I. M. c. A. Auxiliary were assisted by several young ladies in serving, and this fact as usual con
 tributed to the feeling at heme" of the fine fellows of the U. $. service.
 The brief address was delivered by C. Edward Smith. and he made Init with the boys as in a very earnest manner he delivered his message. In part Mir Smith said, Men, if has been d real pleasure to have you here these weeks and months on Sunday morning,
 and as I look into your faces this morning, realize that some if not many of you will soon leave this part
 of the country and we will probably
 see you no n1Sre on earth You. like the fellows who went over there have
 done your duty to your country for you were willing to go over and make the great sacrifice if that were neces : Sary. I have been wondering what you
 were going to take back to your homes
 with you.

 mingled with men from the most hum
 ble homes, and men who had been en gagged in important positions have en- tered with good heart into the most l1a1n iaI I rr-oe .oS iT1e c V7 os. tiele recently in which it told how one man who had owned and run a Pack ard car was now driving a mule an. other who had high position in bus mess was now moving sand in 2 wheelbarrow, and still another more or less prominent young man was picking cigarette and cigar butts ou1 Of the sand. etc, etc. I hope you vii 70 back home determined to be tht kind of men you ought to be. and this 1 iS possible only as you follow thu teachings of Jesus Christ. It is won. derful how the great struggle hag l brought out the fact that down in ev. l cry heart there is longing to do tht right, and whether you men in thu l service are Catholics, Protestants ol Jews, there is. I believe. the desire il 1 the majority of you to obey tie be ! ANS4o%o VI 1AAS SOAAo~ADISC Ali Slt2 A-S-StC l of right and wrong. Take with you young men, out of your experience il l the service that determination to fol 1 low the Christ, and then your llom, l tclks will be really proud of you. ant 1 in the years to come you will have al influence for good in the world?
