over. and drops wounded in that dreadful area. The Red Cross is at his side then. There is not and cannot be any possible conflict be- tween the Red Cross and the Red Triangle. The leaders of these two organizations are generally agreed that this should be the di- vision of responsibility-the Red Triangle should care for the boy while he is we'll, or convalescent; the Red Cross should care for him wounded or sick. There are Red Triangle huts at the Red Cross hospitals.
 SEVEN DAYS OF FREEDOM.
 Then comes the day when the boy has his leave of absence.
 Seven days s allotted to him
 every four months. For weeks in advance he looks forward to it, and the great day comes at last.
 Seven days of freedom! What
 shall he do with them? The
 Frenchman may go back to his
 home; the Englishman turns
 across the channel to "Blighty."
 If you will read the history of
 wars you will discover that every
 army has had one great common
 enemy. Its name is Leisure. The
 Y. M. c. A. is trying to remove Leisure from the liability column

 assets.
 General Pershing, who feels the
 eyes of every American mother
 upon him, has no love for the grea1
 cities as a place of leave for the
 men. With his help and at his suggestion. the Y. M. c. A helped to work out plan.
 Over in one of the beautiful cor ners of France, near the Swis' mountains, Is Aix-les-Bains, one O the most famous resorts in thu world. There the association wen and rented all those great hotels even. the great gambling hall VI : rented, turning it into a motio' picture theatre. There are sta , tIoned fifty or sixty of the fines mon and women in America wearing the ~" uniform. main tain that American soldiers nc where have such a vacation a they have at AIxIes-Bains, wher the best plays and recreationa sports, the most distinguished Ies l turers and actors, and the ables
 preachers in America combine { ]. inspire and instruct and entertai
 them.
 l. Our boys are going across yer l fast these days. The resort at Ali l is already overcrowded. But " have arranged for five simila l. great resorts. Nothing is too goo l. for the American boy-and In hi s leisure hours, the "Y" offers hi, ? its best.

And one mother sal n to me: Y can stand the thougl l. of losing him in battle, but tt , thought of the horrors of tho: Il camps is more than I can bear" q. Have you seen the prise st camps?" they ask me. And
 sometimes wish that I might trut @ fully say that I had not seen thel \. The picture of those camps, as :? saw them in the early days of u .r war, is burned deeply and ind 10 structibly into my memory. 10 Before my country entered u Id war I visited the prison camps ip Germany, Austria, and Hungar ,e Let me remind you that there a

are in the eneny's hands-British, Canadians, Americans, Italians, Russians and others.
 What can America do? you ask me. The "Y" can do much. Be- fore we entered the war there were Y. M c. A secretaries visiting and helping in all those camps. l wish you might have seen tho miracle of their work.
 SAVED CAMP PRISONERS.
 In camps where men were drift. ing into insanity for lack of occu- patton, the "Y" secretary ap- peared. He found among the pris- oners one who had been a fine musician before the war. Securing some band instruments, he started a band. He found another who had been a banker. He organized a class in banking with the prisoner as teacher. Another had been a shoe manufacturer and was soon busy with corps of men repairing the prisoners shoes. The secre- tary brought with him a phono- graph and a motion picture ma chine. It was a miracle those men achieved.
 With our entry into the war VIC were compelled to withdraw our men gradually. But still there are channels open to us. The "Y" has it's offices in Copenhagen and in Switzerland. Through neutral agencies like the Danish Red Cross it still reached out a cheering and helping hand.
 AS I finished my tour of France. the Y M c. A. secretary who had me in charge said to me: Now
 you have seen everything, haven't
 you!"
 I looked at my list, and it was
 all checked off. Yes" I answered,
 T have seen everything"
 But he answered, "No. There is
 one place yet to visit"
 So he took me in a machine out
 to a cemetery. There we stood be- side a few scores of newly-made
 graves-the graves of American soldiers and sailors.
 ALL cREEDs ARE ALIKE. I'm not preacher" said the
 secretary. Only a layman, but have been alone here and as there : was, until recently, no chaplain at this point, I have had to read the last service over these boys-all of them alike, Protestants, Catholics,
 Jews"
 Then be told me of a. beautiful thing. He had conceived the idea of finding for each one of those |. graves a French mother in that town to serve as Godmother-of getting each mother to say: q will keep flowers over this grave
 while the war lasts" And some said: T will take two graves, one ]. for each of my sons."
 Our Army. and Navy will in a crease by millions. These million! will go overseas. Some day they Q will come home-that is, most O 8 them The Y. M. c. A. will accom-
 pany them and minister to then n all the way. We will make jour neys to meet them at the American l. ports. AS we see them coming. of ]: the transports or troop trains, ma, we be able to meet them unafrai, @ and unashamed because we shal B. have done all in our power t,
 servo them through this agency e which goes with them from tn n time they leave home until the 7. return home, representing to then @ home during all the intervenin s. months and pursuing in truth tn v tradition of the -Awsrican mntha,

LAST NIGHT IN AMERICA.

And what of those unnamed ports" where our men embark? A few months ago I approved the largest appropriation the Y. M. c. A has ever made for the erec- tion of one of it's huts.
 The arguments that led me to ap- prove it were six photographs of our American soldiers. They were pictures of men spending their last night in AInerica-sleeping upright in chairs at our overcrowded build ing at an unnamed port Men sleeping on billiard tables, and on the fioori
 said to myself: This is intol- erable. What would the fathers and mothers of America say if they saw those pictures? What sort of appreciation is this for a great country to show to its sons"
 So we have provided for that port a super-hut; and have filled it full of the things of home.
 With the approval of the War Department the "Y," as the boys call, it, steps with them onto the deck of the transport. Dreary trips those used to be; dreary and uncomfortable enough they are even now Yet somewhere on those great ships motion pictures are be- ing shown; somewhere games arc going on among the men; some where there is a room where they may write to friends back home on the letter paper of the Red Tri' angle.

AMERICAN ARMY CLEAN.

So the long, trying, dangerous journey is ended at last and we come to the port of debarkation;
 the kind of a port that in other wars was often more dangerous to the boy than the sea journey, or even the battle itself. The ports

Cof- fee and soup made and served until building shattered by Ger man shells. 93 foyers been de- stroyed by shell fire or captured by the Germans. Three ware houses of the Y. M. c. A were burned by Association officials in order to prevent remaining stores falling into the hands of the enemy.

Mss Bowler, who stayed at the post at Soissons all through the last offensive, held it again In this last one despite the terrific bombardment. Finally left when everything in flames, less than an hour before the Germans entered"
 Then the despatch goes on to mention two of our secretaries who were exposed to shell fire until they were gassed; others who helped back thousands of refugees and wounded. That is the first message.
 "" MEN AT THE FRONT.
 Take this one also:
 Secretaries at front are re spending splendidly to intensified labor placed upon them by attack Secretaries are going almost con stantly as close front as permitted by officers, giving the men frui1 and chocolate, often taking then in the front trenches. Many sec retaries are suffering from shel

' STOOD one day a few months l ago in the office of Gen. Ed
 wards in France. It was a fateful hour. Only a few minutes before my arrival his telephone rang. An officer near the front line sent the distressing word that a company of his men, caught be- tween the enemy's barrage and the fire of their own artillery, had been terribly punished. This news still rang in the Generals ears when he welcomed me.
 Gen. Edwards led me across the room to a great map of the front lines and pointed out to me where the awful punishment had taken place.
 Tt was their first baptism of fire," he said sorrowfully, their first exposure to the fearful destruc- tion of modern warfare"
 Hooked from the map to him and said: General, how do you ex- plain ity How is 1t possible for these boys to come from their peaceful homes right into the teeth of such a terrible experience, and to stand up before 1t like vet erans?"
 PRAISED BY GENERAL.
 Turning to me impressively he gave this splendid answer:
 If you want my explanation, Mir. Mott, it is very simple. l give all credit to the tradition of the American mother"
 The tradition of the American mother Among all the priceless treasures we are risking in this battle for democracy there is none more precious than this We should be cheated indeed, were we to win this war and lose one iota of that traditions power. It is part of the task of the Y. M. c. A. to keep the tradition bright.
 Day by day as l have travelled the United States I have seen ser, vice flags grow thicker in the windows of homes. 1 am writ. ing this 10 the fathers and mothers who live behind those service flags. want to invite them to travel with me. as I have often travelled it. the path that leads from home to lover there"; l want them to see how the Y. NJ. c. A. goes with their boy every step of the way.
 Recently there came to my office a letter from a Ran in New Eng land.
 "Twenty-three draft men are leav ing this country this week" it said "and of these seventeen have never before slept night away from home"
 Imagine. if you can, the loneli ness, the homesickness of thos' boys as they saw their home vii lages grow dim behind their train
 But those boys were not alone ol that troop train. nor friendless. B.

 The second link in that chain is familiar to most at home. We have visited the great army cantonments. We have seen more than 800 great huts where boys write their letters, play their games, and have the con- forts of the club, the library, the theatre, and the school. But after the cantonment there is another lonesome stretch on the road to France-the long hours on those trains that slip silently from the cantonments, carrying their pre- cious cargoes of human life to the seaboard
 On those journeys, too, there is a r NJ. c. A. secretary, a friendly hand and voice on every train-a representative of the fatherhood and motherhood of America.
