Ask the question to the average per-
son, who is the Queen of the Nov
ies?" and nine chances out of ten one
will hear the reply, Mary Pickford.'
This week much to the delight of the
boys at 78 this charming Movie
Queen" appeared in the finely devel-
oped five-reel drama "The Little
Princess" The men certainly did and
will appreciate such treats as this IL
our movies.
Last Monday evening the men OF
the Sd Officers Training Camp held
lecture in our building The lecture
was preceded by a Sing-Song of ex-
ceptional merit.
Lately the men are beginning to
think that they are indeed going
over" Therefore. it is fitting that the
men become acquainted with France
and the French people. Although
Paris is but a small part of France
.fot
a step has been taken in the right di-
rection by giving the soldiers a lecture
upon Paris. 1t is said that all. the
boys when they arrive "over there"
will not see Paris by themselves, but
will have the opportunity to take "Y.
M. c. A. tours with apologies to
Cook. The lecture was given by
Lawton b. Evans, Superintendent Of
the Board of Education of Richmond
county, who having visited Paris, was
well qualified to speak upon the sub
ject. We appreciate Mr.. Evans kind
ness in giving us this treat.
There are two great institutions
which in this day of war are bringing
to light the best qualities of the race;
namely, the Red Cross and the Y. NJ
c. A. Both these organizations are
with the colors" and will be until
victory is achieved. Consequently il
was quite fitting that the Red Cross
should present it's part in the strug-
gle before the men in the ~" hut
We were extremely fortunate in hav-
ing DR. Nusbaum the General Secre-
tary Of the Red Cross, deliver this
message to the men. The speaker
presented quite graphically and with
many Illustrations the work of the
Red Gross, demonstrating that the
Y. NJ. c. A. and the Red Cross are
supplementary to each other
"Coming-Big Mason-hear his Big
Message" So read the posters in our
''Y." Friday evening big Mason"
came, and neither the man nor his
message were overestinated when both
were termed big" Mr.. Mason gave
us every bit of the praise both in his
physique and his message. He spoke
upon The Square Deal" using the
Golden Rule as the Scriptural basis
for his talk. So
Very few entertainers would care to
appear before audiences after Mary
Pickford had delighted. them for two
hours.
c. c. Mitchell, of nation wide repu-
tation as lecturer, was the man who
dared to do this, and came off with
equal honors. This lecture upon I'm
Gle Sans Punch and Spirit" was as
timely as it was interesting. Humor
and facts were so intermingled that
the audience was delighted with both.
Before Mr.. Mitchell finished everyone
most firmly believed that Uncle Sam
did possess a powerful Punch, and
that his spirit was going to give this
Punch an impetus which would shake
the throne of Kaiser Bill
Mr.. ST. John. the Religious Work
Director of the building gave the adj
dress at the Sunday evening Song
Service.
Since the daylight is still with us
for two hours after mess Mr.. Whit
ney, our Physical Director, has adop-
ted the slogan of "a base ball game
every night" for the summer All
companies or batteries wishing to get
on the schedule should see Mr.. Whit
ney as soon as possible
Don't forget the boxing and wrest-
ling.
