 The net result, for which the Chris tian Science committees and camp workers have received many com mendations, has been noticeable raising of the morale of many men in the service and the development of better feeling at home regarding the participation of their boys in the service.
 The camp workers say there is an increased willingness among the com handing officers and surgeons to al- low Christian Science treatment for those men who ask for it, and many Christian Science headings have been recorded. Recently services in hos pital wards was received by camp workers from medical effects of Chris .tian Science treatment.

A light touring car has been added to the equipment of the Christian Science camp workers at each camp to be used wherever and whenever possible in assisting the men.

 The aim of the Christian Science camp workers is to be as helpful as possible to all the men in the camps, whether or not they give assistance which may not be available at the time or place through any of the other camp welfare agencies A fea- ture of this phase of the work is an arrangement for keeping soldiers and sailors in close touch with their rrla- tives.
 Quick Communication.
 Cooperating with the committee in Boston there is Christian Science camp welfare committee in each state. The committee in the home state of a soldier or sailor cooperates by mail and telegraph with the com mittee of the state in which he is camped or stationed to form a direct and constant link between the soldier or sailor and his relatives. Thereby the relatives are quickly made ac- quainted with needs of their boy in the service, and he is provided with an avenue Of quick communication with his home.
 This linking of home and camp, combined. with the personal attention of the Christian Science workers in the camps, has frequently been the means of changing a soldiers outlook from one of gloom to one of joy, and not infrequently it has proved to be tn means Of relieving relatives of finan- cial embarrassment, the committee in the home state making loans for use by the relatives until their boy in camp should be prepared to forward
