German Prisoners Captured by
Americans Are Well Treated

Thus was one of their first difficult
les solved.
Only one request by prisoner at
that same camp seems out Of the
province Of the American authorities
to try to grant. 1t is that made by a
certain German private. 1t seems he
was to be made non-com at noon
on certain day. On the morning of
that day he was gefangen by the
Yanks,
HE wants me to have the A. E. f.
take 1t up with his regiment" says
his American lieutenant commander,
the first Tennesseean who ever re.
fused colonel's (Oberst's) title, and
see If they wont make him a non
com any way, seeing that he missed
1t by only few hours and that i.
was through our fault that he missed
out on 1t. However, I am inclined to
think that the A. e. F. will have to
take up some other things first with
his regiment and his Amy STARS

scheme put into effect here fer ex-
tending hospitality to American

The plan is to distribute the visitors
among private houses, the hosts being
relieved as much as possible of ra
tioning problems, each guest being
provided with ration cards and spe-
eial permits for obtaining food SUP
plies. The entertainment arranged
for the Americans includes golf bowl
ing and tennis. The Y. NJ. C. A.
building is general headquarters anc
central club for the visitors. Ff-
forts are made to show the Americans

When he wants to write letter
(And you know that he had better)
TO his mother, or his father-or
The Girl;
Or he's feeling sort of lonely,
And the thing he Graves is only
An oasis in Their acket and the
whirl;
Or he yearns for conversation,
Or the glad exhilaration
or a movie with comic custard
5ie,
H. will hurry, helter-skelter,
To the Y M G. A. shelter
Hereinafter to be spoken of as "Y".
It's cozy little cot
When it's chilly or it's hot,
For afellow needs a spot
Where it's dry.
'Tis hppy little hut
Where they do not pose or strut,
And the door is never shut
AT the "Y".
No, they don't care what his creed
Is;
They're concerned with what his
And to help him in whatever way
they can;
And no matter what his rating,
There's welcome always waiting
For soldier and brother and a
man.
There are lots of books and papers,
There are talks and shows and ca.
pers,
And a pleasant voice to cheer him
II he's shy;
And they're glad to see him smoking.
And they love to have him Joking
In the hut or tent or dugout known
as "Y".
When he wants a friendly face
At the front or at the base,
It's handy sort of place
To be night.
IT'S a free and easy shanty,
Honey, pleasantlike and canty,
And the greeting isn't scanty
At the "Y".
So, that nothing need be lacking,
Lend the Hut your earnest backing
Let the boy who bears the battle
have his club!
Give more often than you car to;
Draw the biggest check you dare to,
For the entry will look we'll upon
the stub.
Help to cheer the youth fighter;
Help to make his lot the brighter;
You can spare little extra II you
try,
That he lonely, sad, or weary
Shall have comfort, warm and cherry,
In the winsome little wigwam
known as "Y"
It's heavenly retreat
For the lad on weary feet
Where we possibly shall meet
BY and by.
TITS happy little hut
Where they do not pose or strut,
And the door is never shut
