American Soldiers ard Sailors to
Have Benefit Of Organized

Aboard.

A good idea OF the work OF the
American Y. M. G. A. in Great Britain
lis given in q letter which was writteI
by Claude F. Durgee, formerly Of Keo-
kuk, to ]. o. Boyd. attorney. Mr.. Dur.
gee is now at Cayendish Square Inn,
In London.
The association work is best known
through its Eagle hut. situated in the
heart Of London, he declares.
Excerpts from the letter follow:
being situated in the heart Of the
city in street which II London's
Broadway, Eagle hut attracts daily
literally thousands of soldiers and sail
ors who are wandering about the
Strand seeking recreation and too oft
en- finding only unhealthy amusement
Eagle hut has dUmitOfy accommoda-
tons for about 800 men and has
served rs many as 800 meals IN a
day.
Large Staff There.
There IS a large staff Of voluntary
workers, composed mostly OF Ameri
can men and women living In London.
Among the workers are many promi-
nent business and professional men,
likewise number of American WON
en- who have married into the nobility.
Caring for Men.
Zone of the. important phases OF
the American associations work in
Great Britain is the taking care of the
troops stationed at rest camps. After
the tedious crossing it is very import
ant that the men have chance to
rest up before proceeding to France.
AT these camps the men have practical
~ no drill or military duties, SO If 1t
were not for the work Of the associa-
ton vino can create and furnish
amusement and recreation, the troops
would be quite at loss to know how
to fill in their days at these rest
camps.

Revcrontly men and women bowed
their heads In prayer In Philadel-

had pledged themselves to pray
They prayed, too, fervently ,and
sincerely, They asked divine blessing
on the soldiers in the trench and the
sailors on the high sea. They asked
Providence TO guide the president as
he led the nation through this, the
time OF great crisis. TO these petit
tons were added another that
speedy victory would crown the war
fare OF the allies against the Nun.
As an Innovation. the national
movement for brief prayer at noon
became an. instant success. Tho first
tap OF the clapper In the church
tower awakened men and women TO
their personal responsibility and to
their pledged devotions. Men barred
their heads in tho swiriing crowds
TO pray. Women shoppers paused IN
their quest to join with the business
