He Gave What He Had

Christmas was near at hand, and
Christmas trees were needed lot me
camp. The Field Director OF the Red
Cross surveyed the situation and asked
for the privilege of placing Christmas
tree in front of the major generals tent
not far from the fag-pole that indicated
Headquarters. Permission was granted
and a location was decided upon.
At the next meeting OF the Rotary Club
the Field Director asked their assistance
financially. 1t was agreed that all eN,
penses should be borne by the club and
not by the Red Cross. But the Field
Director was still on the job, for the
financial end was by no means the heavy
end of the enterprise.
Trees were scarce and tree-g atherers
were numerous. We wanted noble
symmetrical cedar that would do credit
to the accession and to the location. AT
ter much hunting cedar was found on
the farm of an old Confederate soldier
named Green.
He was quite old and feeble, and was
small of stature With hiT wife he lived IN
a one-room house some distance from
the public road. On all sides were con-
ditions of poverty and decay. He was
no longer able to work his field and there
were no sons, and labor was scarce. 10
ask him for anything seemed absurd
But we told our mission, and the old man
heard us through.
You say YOU want that cedar yonder
in the grove beyond the field for Christ
mas tree for the soldiers at the camp
and are willing to pay for it, said ~.
Yes" we replied, I'VE will put it in
front of the generals tent so that the
soldiers can all see and think of their
Christmas trees at home"
The old man thought awhile, and We
waited for him to answer. well" said
he slowly. Il am an old Confederate sol
der and 1 haven't got much Of anything
left l haven't even got long to I've, and
l had counted on being buried under that
tree, and before long, too My wife and
had picked that one QUIT o lie under
after we were dead"
"Oh, well, we will not ask for that tree
give us some other one," said we at
once, touched by the old mans wistful-
ness
NO, said he after a pause. you can
have that one. 1t is the prettiest tree
on the place. and it will not cost you 9
cent. That is what my wife and can
do for the soldiers in this war. If they
want a Christmas tree, they shall have
the best We've got. l did not think we
but we can do this-and 1 do not want
any pay"
And so the tree came down and was
hauled to town and put up in front of
the fagpole. 1t was beautiful tree,

NEW Y. M. C. A. BUILDING
OPENED AT REMOUNT

The new Y M G. A. building was for
lmally opened on Sunday morning. A
thousand dollars was appropriated by
the Atlanta office for the erection of the
building. This appropriation barely COW
cred the cost of material Through the
generous offer of Major Stryker to pro-
vide the necessary labor the building was
begun. From the very beginning the
major has shown the deepest interest IN
the Y M. c. A. Indeed the Y. M. G. A.
came to the Remount as direct result
of his earnest solicitation. In addition
to the labor detailed by the major The
men of the Wagon and Pack Trains, the
Horseshoeing school and the Remount
company sacrificed their evenings to-
work on the building. Only this gener
Gus cooperation made the building pos
sible at this time Now that 1t is COM
pleted we hope the pleasure and benefit
derived from it and the things it repre-
sents viii abundantly compensate for
every sacrifice.
The new building is 4Ox64 and in addi-
ton to the auditorium contains three
rooms, one of which has been furnished
and set aside as visitors ROOM
The dedication service was held at ll;lb
Sunday morning and was very well at
tended. The building was tastefully dec
GRATED with blooming mountain laurel
wild ferns and roses. Special thanks
are due to Messrs. Hugo McGettigan and
Moran for the decorations The 10th
Artillery band added very much to the
occasion by the splendid numbers with
which they varied the program.
Following the opening numbers by the
band the audience sang 1.-The Battle
Hymn of the Republic" led by Mr.. Trox-
ell. Mr. Thomas made the opening pray
err. Following a number by the band
and responsive sentences by the audi
ence, Mr.. Troxell carried us back to
thoughts of home by a splendid tenor solo
which was much appreciated by ALL The
address of the morning was delivered by
the Rev Mr.. Thomas of Denver. who
spoke most interestingly of The Sin of
Neglect" After a selection my the band
the. building was formally presented to
Major Stryker for the use of the officers
and men of the eRmount. In accepting
the building, the major contrasted the
camp in the days of '9S with the evident
concern and interest in the welfare of
the men of the army as evidenced by
such organized attempts to serve the
men as those manifested by the Y. Nj.
.C A The program was ended by the
singing of America and the benediction
by Rev. Thomas.
