to send back home. Then with the
officers he set out through that train to
try and locate any booze.
Not all departures from the home town
are of the noisy, hilarious order. Some
times there are weepy scenes. For instance,
in one Southern State a big, bearded
mountaineer boy was weeping his head off
as the train moved for the first camp, ac-
companied by cheers. The new order of
knighthood got next to him. 1t turned out
the poor fellow could neither read nor
write, and literally did not know what the
war was about, why he was going, where
or how long. All he knew was he had left
a wife and kids without a cent of support,
and he was scared stiff with financial
anxiety.
When he found what his own pay would
be, what the allowance would be to his
wife and kids, and that there was secre-
tary amid every bunch of men to write
postcards and letters home to the wife and
kids his relief knew no bounds.
All this is before the boys 60 in uniform
in the first camp training for raw recruits.
Now comes the first touch of discipline.
discipline for body and soul discipline for
feet that shuttle and toe in, discipline too
for morals that shuttle, toe in and tumble
over their own sheer physical clumsiness;
for the ordinary youngster does not sin
because he deliberately sits down before
o-l nh,NcoC 10 o,r,
because he stumbles over his own vague
moral and mental clumsiness.
Well, army and navy discipline take the
vague out of body and soul. They also
put hop into motion and thought. At
these first camps of training are athletics,
are theatricals, are movies, are rest and
entertainment huts, also religious services.
Such men as Taft or Roosevelt speak.
Such artists as Julia Arthur come and re-
cite Robert Service and Kipling poems,
but no soft stuff is handed out.
All Sorts Of Services in Huts.
On Sunday hut may house Catholic
services at A. M, Anglican services at
10 A. M, Y. M. C. A. lectures at P. N.
Writing material for letters home, cisa-
rettes, camp kit comforts may be bought at
many of these huts. In one camp that i
particularly think about under one tent
roof there slept the literary critic of
New York daily, professor of Latin in
a university, prominent and successful
actor, stock broker who made $4,000 L
year and a boy who could neither read
nor write.
Does any mother fear for her son the
influences of this preliminary training,
the discipline, the touch of the greatest
minds, the melting of all caste, eompulsion
to keep pace and step with the very high

Training and drill at this camp may
last from one to six months. Then comes

men They haven't had time for burned
out ideals and besotted middle age lapses
of will and vim and aim. Also there
never was war in which so many influ-
elees making for clean-cut, sword-sharp
manhood accompanied the young fighter
from the time he sets out in civilian
clothes till he reaches the firing line.
Not including UNCONVENTIONAL chap
lains there are the Salvation Army men.
There are the X. of C.'s. There are the
Red Cross. There are the Y. M. c. AS
these altogether separate from volunteer
organizations at each enlistment centre
and cantonment and even camp on the
battlefield behind the firing lines; and it
is well known fact to at least three, of
these big organizations Gen. Pershing
quietly passed word down the line that
apart from religious work he wanted
these organizations to consider their own
peculiar job keeping the army and navy
clean-clean and busy and happy; for if
they are buoyantly and boyantly happy
and busy-,busy with work and busy with
sport-they will be clean.
Coody-soody Type Disappears.
1t is also a well known and peculiar
fact on the inside that the sissy type
goody-goody worker has automatically
gou. out of business. 1t is a world of
action, and his soft stuff" doesn't 60 any
more. Goodness with punch in it, more
20 be desired than the devils pet tattooed
siren-is the new order of the new day,
and the boys are living it more than they
are talking about it. OF course the OLE
order, both good and bad, still hangs on
the edge of army and navy; but it
doesn't belong any more, and is falling off
more and more every day.
Follow a chap of the new order-I
don't call him a chaplain, for he wasn't
helping to get the boys off from the
time they leave home in civilian clothes.
1t is a mere chance that he was a
Triangle Man. He might have been any
one of the other groups.
1t was only repetition of the first
scenes when the western Canadian
troops enlisted. Could any possible good
come out OF such roughnecks officers of
the old conventional type asked when they
saw these fellows ripping sawdust out of
rules and roughhousing all regulations.
They saw what good could come out of
such roughnecks at the salient at Ypres.
1 know troops that went there thousand
strong and came back six alive. As the
Triangle Man said, it was only frontier
edition of hysteria to cover embarrass
ment.
The first thing he did to quiet the crowd
was to start songs going-not where is
Ny Wandering Boy Tonight but "Over
There and beautiful Katie" and national
airs and good clean ragtime. Then he
passed postcards round for each fellow

the transfer to the great camp near the
port of embarkation. At this stage many
a boy has been remade physically and
spiritually. At all events, he has found a
higher level than when he came in. His
peevish personal small ego has been
merged in the greatest current of the CEN
fury or of all centuries Going from the
small camp to the environments near port
there are of necessity long waits at GER
tain big transfer rail centres such as st.
Louis, or Pittsburg or San Francisco.
Here to-day through purely volunteer
effort are provided huts, pools, baths, en-
tertainment halls, hostess houses, canteens.
But consider for a moment the troops in
transfer; a million and a half in six
months. For the next six months there
may be two million poured into the reser-
voir of these transfer rail centres.
1t is marvellous the army and the rail-
roads do so well.
At the port of embarkation are more
drilling in the big camp, more shaking
down of special men for special services,
and always four or five days for the men
to rest and brace up for the ocean voyage.
The story of what is being done at the
ports of embarkation must unfortunately
be largely repressed during the war; but
it is story to make every mothers heart
beat with gratitude.
Woman Gives $4,000 Building.
For instance, at one port of embarka-
ton are seven large buildings fronting the
piers to take care Of the boys on their
four or five days rest; and a private
plilanthropist, Miss Tooker, is erecting
a 1000 rest and recreation hut near an
other port. Meals are served at 30 cents
and down, not up. Beds are supplied to
500 sailor boys at night. Major-Gen.
Shanks has charge of all activity at en-
harkation points.
Both at the camps and on the trans
ports there are given to the boys French
phrase books, army and navy song sheets,
post cards to send home, circulars of d.
reetion how to proceed in camp, where to
go, what to do, how to do it at home and
abroad. There is also placed in the hands
of every young man a pamphlet, ap-
proved by the army, really a nurses
story, fact but in the form of fiction, Of
how to keep clean morally and physically,
and what it means not to keep clean.
