lawn tennis, as it affords. officers es- pecially, an opportunity for exercise of a strenuous kind within the limited time at their commands. There is a demand for tennis equipment already from our forces overseas, as no less than 1S0 dozen balls and 30 nets have already been requested. Dick Will
 ians. former. national champion, who is known to be overseas, has spoken of the uses made of athletic equipment provided by the Y. N. c. A, and it is nc far step of imagination to state that this game will be largely used by our officers, just back from trench duty, to bring them back to normal
 In the cantonments a demand is al-
 ready known to exist
 As the U. S. National Lawn Tennis
 Association is one of the leading pa
 triotic sport bodies in the country, as witnessed by it's patriotic tournaments
 for the purpose of buying and equip ping tennis ambu1ances, manned by tennis players. for work at the front, there is every reason to believe that tennis will be stimulated by that or ganization in our various environments. This is a. far seeing organization. as i it has funds in hand for the purpose Of creating interest in tennis in thoso sections of the country where interest l is most needed. What more worthy cause than to use these funds in our various cantonments? Not only would 1 it carry out the purpose of the fund, 1 but it would provide added wholesome irecreation for both officers and men. I think it was Nal Logan, former 1 star quarterback at Harvard, now a
 commissioned officer in our army, who Itold me of all incident in the exami- nation of enlisted men at one of the cantonments winch shows how anxious American boys are to get into service There was a lot of them assembled in the examining room connected with ] the medical department and two or ] three would be sent together into an- !! other room for final looking over. ]! One of the tests is to have. a can didate sit on the edge of a table, with This legs dangling over, and then strike
 him on the knee cap to note the re-
 fexion of the leg. Three men came in, all stripped and all anxious to make good. A captain glanced at them and commanded them to hop up on the table all three of them jumped on top of it and began hopping around
 on one foot. When the captain got through explaining what he wanted
 them. to do all three joined in the
 laugh. e-
