One estimate heard, although its accuracy is open to doubt, fixes the total, including prisoners at between 125,000 and 130,000. This is to be com pared, if correct with the French esti mates of 350,000 to 450,000 Germans killed, wounded or captured.

THE ''YS" ATLANTIC TRAIL
~ WnLIam a. shenherd.

Ten days on the ocean is heavy drag
on soldier morale How to get into these
lots of play as we'll as lots OF drill is no
easy problem to solve,
The army men realized, as soon as
we began transporting troops to France,
that mid-ocean strains on the men
might injure their morale considerably
and, perhaps undo much good work that
had been done previously in the camps
at morale building.
transport work came to the same real
izauon both as regards the troops they
transported and their own civilian or
merchant marine crews.
And thus the y, NJ. c. A. was invited
onto the ocean.
After several months Of experimenting
the Y Nj. c. a, has learned that service
boys and nothing but the best of service
is what is needed to make their work
efficient. The secretary who goes on
each troop ship to France keeps himself
in the background and only men who can
do this are chosen for the work. The W
service may stand out but never the man
who renders it,
About the second day out the young
men are glad enough TO read that, in
their particular section of the ship that
evening, there is to be a boxing match
or movie show. Word gets around
that a ''Y' man on board has brought
library of the latest books with him
and thousands of magazines,
Punching bags appear here and there
Checkers are distributed TO all who want
them Photographs appear at uneX-
pected times Of the day or evening. Down
in packed hatchway white curtain
goes up and before the men realize 1t a
moving picture show with the latest and
best films is going on at fun clip

ious fashion, big "sinE-song' is start

ment in the history of Camp Hancock.
This delightful music-and it was jazz,
SOME JAZZ-was furnished by the
Jazz Orchestra of the Headquarters
Company, Main Training Depot The
orchestra was ably assisted by Mr.
Bolger, Of the famous Bolger, Hand
man and Casey Trio.
During the main intermission, Can
didate Farley, of the Twenty Sixth
Company, entertained the dancers with
several selections from the immortal
Kipling, His rendition of "Gunga Din"
was heartily encored and he had to re-
peat with more selections from the
wonderful Britisher
The dance was originally scheduled
to end at midnight, but when the wee
hours came the dancers were loath to
go and so, with the kind permission of
Col. Westmoreland, Home Sweet Home
was not played until ~: 30 o'clock, And
even then they parted with reluctance.
Delicious fruit punch was furnished
by the management of the Country
Club, and was served throughout the
evening.
Those on the committee in charge
of the dance were: Candidate Glen
denning, who served as chairman of
the committee; Candidate Dalrymple,
who acted as treasurer and publicity
man. Candidate league, who worked
with the chaperones; and Candidate
Corbley who was in charge Of the re-
ceptlon of the guests on the night of
the dance, Candidate Hanna acted as
floor manager, making the announce
ments and calling the dances.
And so the second dance given by
the now famous Twenty sixth Com
pany is history. The initial dance was
credited with being a huge success;
the dance of Friday evening surpassed
it in every way and the general opin-
ion is that it was:

their tables barrels etc, have an act

fact Joe Jackson and Bert Melrose have
nothing on him when it comes to gather

thrilling and clever ground work.
Resale Ashner, a little girl with
big voice and personality followed the
above riot of fun and also scored an
immense hit She sang four songs with
