new SLANT ON WORK
OF Y. M. c. A. IN FRANCE
Prominent Western Minister Tells
of Religious Activities Within
Sound of Hun Guns.

The Rev. Robert Freeman, d. d. of
Pasadena, CAL, one of the best-known
ministers of the West, is in France as
n secretary to the Y. NJ. G. A. Here's
what he has to say of religion within
sound of the German guns, where isms
merge into helpfulness, and creeds
don't count so much as being kind:
you can get any opinion you want
on the religious work of the Y. M. G.
"A. in France.
ut is ~overdone, it is UNDERGONE, it
isn't done at all; it is narrow, it is
bigoted, it is too generously broad; it
is stiff, it is highty-tighty, it isn't child
like; there is no singing worth speak
ing of, and why don't you have some
thing besides hymns? And any n of
these opinions can be defended, first
by the character of the person voicing
it, and, second, by reference to the
place visited by the critics.
But here's a little incident that
happened the other day which tells
the whole story of the religious work
of the Y. M. G. A. ia France:
An American lau with nerves Snat-
tered by what he had seen at the
front, was going out of his mind. He
had had the experience before, and
was in an agony of anticipation. He
was a Catholic, and, as such, most anx-
ious to confess. He could not speak
French and the only available priest
could not speak English.
ais there anyone here who can
speak French?' inquired the priest.
1.-THE Y. M. G. A. woman running
the hotel knew the language. SO the
three retired into a quiet room, and the
American soldier confessed his sins,
through a Protestant wOman to a Cath
Ollie priest, in a Y. NJ. G. A. hut in
France"

fingers on In emery wheel in ar effort
to avoid having finger prints taken

Washington authorities Immediately or
dered his internment.

BURIED BARREL OF PORK
Found in Good Condition After Be-.
inq Hidden Five Years.

A barrel of fresh pork, government
inspected, was unearthed on the farm
of former County Commissioner Henry
mont, o., by Mr.. Bergman, as he was
blowing in the field. The pork was
found to be in good condition.
1t is believed the barrel containing

was discovered in a low spot, along the
Sandusky river, and covered with sew
eral feet of dirt. The barrel contained
500 pounds.

Empyema Cure Found.

Medicine has found a cure for

pneumonia. The Carrel-Deakin meth

new cure. 1t has been tried out among
National army soldiers at Camp Meade,

a few days in cases deemed almost
hopeless under old methods of treat
ment.

When the whole story of this war
shall have been written it will be in
complete without a chapter about how
the American boys behaved in France.
The historian should get the material
for that chapter from the provost mar
shall. He is the chief of police, so
far as the Americans are concerned.

ment stationed in a little French vii
lage where from time to time we can
hear the booming of the guns On the
battle front, keeping the boys always
reminded of the direction in which
they are headed, writes a correspond
ent Of the New York Times. There
are few French folk in the place;
they moved to where it is safer. And
so the Americans are pretty much in
control of the town, and incidentally,
there are about ten times as many
American soldiers here as there ever
were civilian Frenchmen and French
women. They are quartered in every
available house, and in SOM that
would not be available were it not that
they had to be.

writer, and some blankets are the only

room l have to go through the room
of the provost marshal. His room is
better than mine; it has a bed. He
didn't know it was a bed until the
owner of the house put in a charge for
billets. Under the army plan, a room
with a bed in it costs one franc a day,
but if there is no bed the charge is
only 80 centimes. And so the provost
marshal knows he has a bed to sleep
on and not a box. 1t says so in the
official records of the war department.

specting the room of the provost mar
shall the other day and noticed a part
of the wall at one end was corrugated
steel. We pushed it up, and 10, there
was a fireplace. We Immediately call
ed the owner of the house and
demanded a fire. 1t was very diff
cult, he said, because he had no wood,
and never used fire except for cook
ing.

Threat to Burn Bed.

When we convinced him that unless
we got wood quickly the provost mar
shal's bed was going to be sacrificed
he changed his mind about the diff
Guilty and said that perhaps for five
francs it might be that someone had
some wood to sell. He got the five
francs and two hours later reappeared
with three bundles of fagots, explain
ing his delay by saying that on the
way he had stopped to milk three
cows. We got the fire started and
quickly saw that at the rate the fagots
burned we were o going to be cold
again. We explained to the man of
the house that we must have big pieces
of wood. He r -.,lied that only the
cure had such wood, and that it was
impossible to buy wood from the cure,
and besides it was Sunday. The pro-
vost marshal gave him ten francs and
told him to bring the wood. And he
did. / was sorry l didn't go along to
see how he got the wood from the cure
on Sunday, but the main point was
that he got 1t. The provost marshal
has dominion only over the misbe-
havior of Americans, and so it was
zone of eur affair how the man got
the wood.
But when it comes to Americans
this provost marshal is a very differ
emf man. He is a young first lieuten-
ant, and his home is in New York
city. He has told me that after the
war he is going to get out of the army.
He hasn't said what he is going to
do, but l think he is training to be a
rival of one William J. Burns. He has
to do some very nice detective work.
The American soldiers behave gen.
orally like a lot of college boys in
their moments of relaxation, but 1t is
not to be supposed that they don't
break loose a bit at times. And be-
aus they do the provost marshal has
his hands full, and sometimes the lock-
up. AS college boys do, the soldiers
make it as difficult as possible for the
provost guard to obtain material for
conviction of violators of army rules.
1t was eight o'clock in the morn
Ing. The provost marshal was sleep
ing soundly, having got to bed at one
o'clock after his last round of the vii
Iage streets, which he found de-
serted of the regiments comedians"
as the trouble makers are called. There
was a loud rapping at his door
and the "Y" mar entered to say that
early in the morning the Y. M. G. A.
hut had been entered and one box of
cigars and one baseball taken, and
that the damage was 35 francs. He
asked that it would not happen again.
The lieutenant thanked him for the
information and sent for a corporal Of
the military police, and put him on
the case.

PRESIDENT AND MRS. FROST SOON
TO RETURN

Dear Friends in Berea:
We have greatly enjoyed reading
each day one Of the letters from
citizens and fellow-workers that
were put into our hands as we came
away. They were so numerous that
they have lasted until now when We
are planning 10 return for few
lays. We have been away so much.
and so absorbed aud confined by our
duties when in Berea, that we fear
ed our neighbors did not know how
much we really thought Of them.
These letters show that you do really
know our hearts and understand the
goodwill which we have expressed
so poorly.
We have gained in health and
feel confident that the Lord has i'm
portant work for us yet. Yesterday
we attended church for the first
time since last June. and it did not
prevent our having a good night's
sleepl
Florida is balmy - our windows
open night and day. But we shall
be glad to see Kentucky again,
With love To each and all.
Faithfully yours,
VIM G. and Eleanor Frost.
