Direction of all Army Y. NJ. G. A.
activities in the entire Southern De-
partment is the large responsibility
given to Wilman Il. Adams, Executive
Secretary, by the National War Work
Council early in the development Of
the extensive program Of the Y. N. c.
A. in its efforts on behalf of the sol
diers.
Mr.. Adams is the administrative
fhe5d of the territory made up of
Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisi-
ana, New Mexico, and Arizona, in
which is located a large per cent Of
the army camps of the entire country.
Under his administration the opera
tlons of the Army Y. NJ. C. A have
grown until there is now IN opera
tlon, or in process of construction, one
Y. NJ. C. a. building for every $500 sol
diers located in these Southwestern
states. When it is remembered that
there are several hundred thousand
soldiers in training in the Southern
department camps, including Camp
Camp Pike, Camp Bowie. Camp
Macarthur Camp Cody, Camp Doni-
Iphan, Fort Sill, Camp Beauregard,
Kelly Field, and the other great living
Yields Of the department, it will be un-
derstood that Mr.. Adams occupies a
position Of similar Importance TO that
of a Major General.
In addition TO the camp activities Of
the Army Y. N. c. A. directed by Mr..
Adams and efficiently executed by his
army of men in the uniform Of .he Red
Triangle, the Southern Department
executive secretary has under his
supervision the Army y. VI. C. A. ac-
tivities along The entire Mexican bor-
der, from Brownsville, Texas, to Yuma,
Arizona, where many Y. n. C. a. sta
tiOns are located ana where a feet Of
eighteen auto trucks take to the sol
diers in isolated places the comforts
and pleasures Of the Y. N. c. 4.
Mr., Adams is one of the pioneers
Of the Army Y. NJ. c. a. movement.
He was actively identified with the
Army "Y" work with the troops on
the border and in Mexico.

IRE in this world, this must be al

concessions to the merely practical.
In an ideal world one would merely
lift the receiver off the hook, not
only to ask whether he had time to
catch the 7:55 or must try for the
