talon at Cha4eaq

Four wounded fellows were seated
in the Hostess House eating q good
hearty supper Thursday, and congrat-
ulating themselves among other
things on not being annoyed any more
with inspections and early morning
roll calls. One morning recently their
commander, who was also wounded
held the roll call in bed, which they
thought was about the finest spirit
possible.
we were giving them hot
machine gun barrage in connection
with the regular barrage Of the
artillery when suddenly the Germans
began Smelling US with high explo-
sives," said Private Earl Heck Of
Reading, Pa, S2d Div, from Camp
Gordon, who began his military
career at Meade.

Dave" Goldberg, Company M. 31Sth
Infantry, laughed when he passed by
the dugout of the German crown
prince at Montfaucon and read the
sign Just for the Kronprinz."
1t so happened that the crown
prince was a good many miles away
from the dugout at the time and the
American soldiers were throwing
grenades into the place that they
might make sure that none of the
princes pets was going to get away
alive.

act Two Brazilian Nuts"
The show was repeated Saturday
night at the Hostess House and with
Mrs. 8. C. Seymour, Mrs. Edward Burr
and other ladies of the house and a
crowd OF soldiers as audience they
made a big hit. Kolonskie walked in
with that cocky air of his which -

does. He is a little fellow. but he

1t happens that the name of the

Abe furnishes a lot of peculiar gyra-

so clever and the whole appearance
of the dancer, on and off the stage,
was so unusual that a numbec of per.
sons really believed that he was a

To prove that the overseas men and
the Meadites were good pals, Dave"

ACTS FROM " HUTS
VIE AT AUDITORIUM

The vaudeville show put on at the
Y Auditorium Tuesday night was q
whirlwind Of a show and attracted
one of the largest audiences that have
yet attended an auditorium show.
Samuel Goldring. representing "
hut, started things humming with a
nifty juggling act. 1t was q good
starter and Immediately the boys

good monologue man in the person of
c. g. Gentry. He made his appear
ance from the audience, when 1t was
announced that the act billed for the
No. position would be unable to
fine results, The boys grabbed his
camp humor with relish, and he
secured fine hand at the finish.
When 1t comes to hoop rolling and
hoop juggling Howard Nichols Is in
a class by himself. Hut G had the
honor of sending on this clever boy,
and he made good without a minutes
hesitation. Despite lighting and
space handicaps he did his stunts
with great success. It's said that
ness who keeps seven hoops in the
air simultaneously. 1t took him
little while to do this trick on Tues
day night, but he finally put it over
amid thunderouS applause.
A solid hit was registered by the
Hut E. Numbering six persons, they
did a number of Hawaiian songs with
fine effect.
The comedy hit of the bill was
secured. hands down, by Country and
Levine. who came down from the
base hospital hut. Each performer is
capable of putting on lively single.
but joining talents for the night
made the act young riot" When
they came on they admitted that they
didn't know just what they were
going to do, but it wasn't long be-
fore they had the house roaring with
their Hebrew comedy. Levine sang
his parodies, worked some cross fire
stun with Country and recited poetry.
Country gave sections of his popular
told q number of good stories and
displayed his talents to the satisfac-
tion of all. Why didn't you do your
Chaplin stuff. Country?
Leroy Morton, representing &C hut
No. 2, scored the vocal hit of the
show. The boys went wild over his
camp songs and he showed dramatic
ability in his handling of a serious
ballad. He tried out new number
Another Man Gone Wrong" and it
was greatly liked. Morton can handle
a comedy number or ballad with
equal success and he secured a big
hand when he left the stage.
The closing number, Prince Lideo.
otherwise known as Corp. Smith. gave
the show a great finish. Smith did
his magic stuff and followed it with
his hypnotic work. He had his sub
iects doing all kinds of stunts, and
it wasn't a minute before the prince
had the audience laughing all the
way. There are no dull moments in
this act. and it is sure fire from start
to finish. The prince is a clever chap
and the boys always ask for more.
Not the least important feature of
the show was the musical contribu-
ton of the musicis ms. Walter Sobey
at the piano and Richard Clyne with
his violin. They gave the perform
ers fine support and were important
factors in making the show such a
success. The program was arranged
under The direction of Harry simpson

81 The Christmas Message.
DY GENERAL SECRETARY e. C.
BALDWIN.

BALDWIN,
"Peace on earth, good will to
men," the old, old message
which the angels sang so many
centuries ago, rings with a new
meaning in all Christendom to-
day. In that far-away day God.
evidenced His interest in the
accomplishment of this much
to-be-desired end by the gift of
His Son to the world, and,
through the centuries since, men
have-blindly enough, to be sure
been slowly working out the
process by which universal peace
and good will toward men might
become a reality.
AS the years have passed and
men have continued to practice
the cruelties of war and to con-
done the selfish inconsiderate-
ness that has prevailed in their
dealings with one another in
times of peace, those who cher
ished the hope that good will
among men" might prevail have
lost heart and wondered if the
song Of the angels was but the
iridescent dream of fanciful
poet rather than the pronounce
ment of the Lord God Omnipo-
tent. And the most optimistic
Of as admit that the history of
the ages since Christ came into
the world contains innumerable
pages SO dark as to seem to
Justify such Questioning.
n But in our God there us no
variableness, neither shadow OF
turning" and the march of men
through. the ages has been Under,
His ,watchful eye. He has used
even the wrath of men to for
ward His purposes. This awful
war which has just now come
10 an end has advanced His
world peace program more than
q century Of normal conditions
could have done.
The men who fought in this
war on the side of the allies
fought for justice and righteous
ness and peace, and they fought
to victory. They hate war more
now than they ever did and all
over the world the cry is for the
kind of peace terms that will
make war forever impossible.
The lust for war may not yet
be stamped out of the hearts of
those who began this conflict,
but such terms will be imposed
upon them as will put them be-
yond the power to crafty their
lust. The people of the nations
who defended democracy would
not tolerate "war lust" in our
leaders.
Today, therefore, the Christ
mas bells ring out sweetly and
iiisistently the peace and good
will message, calling us to still
higher attainments and bidding
Us do all that in us lies to hasten
the day when the angels mes
sage shall so permeate the lives
De men in all their relationships
throughout the world that Gods
eternal purpose with reference
TO Els children may be fully
realized and find its expression
in q finer and more wholesome
civic and social and economic
ind religious life.
TO the men at Camp Meade,
whether they have served here
or "oyer there" is given the op-
portunity to make mighty
contribution toward this end.

to keep the Christmas spirit
alive while the camp remains,

TRAINING AT BURLINGTON.
Total Of 565 Young Soldiers at the
University of Vermont

Among the educational institutions
which have placed their resources at
the disposal of the government for the
period of the war is the University of
Vermont. At present 565 enlisted men
are being trained there-200 in signal
corps school and 365 in mechanics
school. In the latter school are go
auto mechanics, IS carpenters, 90 ma
ehinists, and 90 blacksmiths. The base
ball cage with its dirt floor and glass
roof, makes an ideal garage, while the
shops of the college of engineering are
used for wood and ironwork. Rooms
have been equipped for telegraph and
radio instruction, and scientific sub
ieets. are taught in class-rooms and
laboratories by instructors who have
given up their vacation for the pur-
pose.
More than 900 Vermont students, for
mer students and the faculty members
have enlisted. The president, DR.. Guy
Potter Benton is organizing secretary
of the Y. M. C. A. in France. For more
than fifty years the university has been
giving military instruction under the
direction of a regular army officer. and
it is one of very few institutions
ranked in the Distinguished Class
by the war department. So many men
left the college during the Civil war tc
enter the service that few student:
were left. There was a prompt response
to the call for volunteers in the wal
with Spain and for Mexican border
service.
