TEACHING SOLDIERS TO SING
Soldiers At Fort shafter Learn Words
and Airs Of Americas War Songs
From Movie Screen. d;

There is one officer on Oahu, says
the Sunday Advertiser of Honolulu, &C.
cord ing to the Army and Navy Journal,
who is a firm believer in the value Of
song as a military asset to the soldier.
Col. JGmes A. Irons, commanding the
Second United States infantry, believes
so thor bughly in the Importance of hav-
ing sol, Tiers know the songs of the ma
tion-p: lrticularly the war songs-that
he has provided a means OF teaching
the men of his regiment just what the
war soni.s of America are.
The 1ie thod which Colonel Irons has
started Mt: Fort Shafter is one which
should. be used throughout the army.
It consists Of having national and pa-
triotic airs played by the orchestra
at the even ing performances at the air.,
drome-Foi.t Skaters moving picture
theater-wlhile the words are thrown
upon the screen where the men can
read them. In this way the soldiers
become acquainted with the words Of
the songs, and. what is equally impor-
tant, they become accustomed to sing
ing together. The soldiers are enthusi-
astic over the new plan and the sing
ing IS worth going far to hear. 1t. is
not impossible that, sometime within
the service Of the men who are now
serving the second infantry, that regi-
ment may. be called on to march from
Bordeaux to Berlin. and that the march
will be made easieraapd the spirit Of

DR.. jenkins Lecture.

On Tuesday evening the high school
auditorium was packed to hear DR..
Burris A. Jenkins Of the Medical Re-
serve Corps, who has spent several
years on the various war fronts. and
visited for months in some Of the
stricken countries, lecture on the war.
He is a clear and forcible speaker. not
an orator, but tells a story Of vital
interest and greatest pathos in a
simple, straightforward way that
carries conviction to the hearts Of his
hearers and leaves with them an in
sight into the suffering Of our fellow
humans over there that will cling long
in the hearts Of all who heard him.
The message he bears is that we who
are spared all this misery should not
hesitate to bear the brunt Of the finan-
cial burden of the war. His wonderful
pictures Of the courage Of the allied
troops who are holding the lines and
the patience of the people who have
suffered the greatest outrages the
world has ever known at the hands of
the vicious Huns went home to all his
hearers, and it will be long before the
big audience which greeted him for
gets the pictures Of suffering and
heroism he painted. Lamar certainly
was fortunate in securing such splen-
did lecturer as DR.. Jenkins.
