WAR WORKERS CAMPAIGN

Peace may come Tomorrow, and
it may not; there is never any read
ing beforehand the German mind.
But no matter what comes, our
boys are in home and foreign camps,
and there they are likely to remain
for many months. For no army of
any war was ever demobilized in
anything that might be counted short
order. If the war goes on these boys
will need care and attention and ten
derness unspeakable; for there will
be ache of wounds to soothe, ache of
hearts to alleviate; there will be let
tiers to write for crippled hands and
blinded eyes; last tender offices to
be performed, graves, per chance, to
be marked for those who will come
seeking, seeking when the peace sun
shines.
So many things to do while the
battle smoke still rolls, and so much
money it will take to pay for the ten
der service! Is there anybody who
will not give of his bounty or his
poverty to soften life and pain and
death out yonder under the red glare
of the guns?
Is there anybody-is there?
X
And if peace comes those boys are
still there, for who may say, if we
turn our backs too soon, that Ger
many may not make another "scrap
of paper" Of our treaty and throw
the Hohenzollern banner again to
the wind?
And even after the terms are Sc
cure it will take time to move those
100000 men across the ocean.
And during the wait there will come
to the souls of your sons the crucial
time of the war.
The excitement of the fight will
be gone, the exhiliration of specula-
ton on what the day will bring have
died down into a monotony of une-
ventfulness a hundred times harder
to bear than the zest Of the battle.
What is to be done with those men
with canker of idleness and home
sickness eating day by day into their |
lives? They need to be mothered |
and loved and cared for even more
than in the full days of the fighting.
To leave them in those foreign camps
or even in the home cantonments
without such fostering care would
be a crime scarcely short of Hun
atrocity.
And they will not be left without
it if the people of this country wake
up to a realizing sense of their needs
and give beautifully and generously
of the money that is necessary. |

in that trying period she has shown
rare courage. She was wounded at
Antwerp and as result of the brav-

 The change had been achieved. it was explained, by army doctors who cured him of the hook worm, re moved his tonsils and adenoids. and made other slight alterations.
 The boy had been resentful over being forced into the army and little promise of ever becoming 8 fit sol dter. Today he is about the smart est man in the company, his captain says. After several months of serv. returning he frankly told his conn pany commander that while he had been mighty glad to see the home folks, he was glad to get back to the army.

b1e for attacking camps and troops in
 formation.
 | Accidents have occurred in the
 camps where the Americans are being trained and a few men have been killed but the records show that the percentage is far less in Tngland than
 Tn the United States. Those in train
 ing here are inclined to attribute the difference more to luck than to any things else, although there also is pointed out the probability that the average airplane used in Fngland is 2 better made machine than the aver age that has been used in the United States.
 The bombing devices being attached to virtually every plane is not the con triVanCe that was used in the earlier days of the war. That used then was little more than mechanism that re- leased the projectile. allowing it to fall at point approxma tely near the target. The device now being used is one with which the operator may with much practice become almost as pro nclent in marksmanship as an artil-
 lerEman with his gun. Almost every nght plane will carry hcmbs of at Ios st 70 pounds and from the heavier types there will be hurled the huge contain CTS of high explosive not materia llI- different from those used by the Ger mans in some of the more recent raids

HOW ARMY WORKS
 CHANGES IN MEN
Insights Into Fighting Material the Huns Will Have to Buck
 Against.

Louisville, Ky, Aug. 8.--Some of the men to come to the National Army cantonments at Camp Zachary Taylor in the first quota of selected recruits came reluctantly. These same men as members of the S4th division, National Army, recently transferred to Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, Ohio, wouldn't quit the army if they could.
 Illustrating this change in feeling, company commanders tell many stor- ies, one of which concerns a noun tain boy who profanely objected to his fathers efforts to get him out of the army. The boys father had writ ten many letters to the Captain de- claring the lad was not. strong and might break down completely under strain of active service. To make sure of the boys health the captain had sent him before the various med ical boards. Their verdicts were that he was in good health.
 Finally the youngster came to the captain and wanted to know if these frequent orders to appear before med ical boards was caused by any dissat- isfaction of the captain with him Then he was shown his fathers let ters.
 Huh. Pappys crazy, Captain he said. ''I ain't delicate. Look at me He means well, but you just tell him to go to blazes. I'm going to France

EVERY AIRPLANE
 ID BE, A BOMBER
Dash and Daring of U. s. Pliers
 Wins Admiration

With the American Army in Eng land. July 25 Correspondents of the Associated Press) Almost every air plane used by the allies soon will carry bombs. Experts in aerial warfare are convinced that the general efficiency of the corps will be increased if 3 bonn blng device is added to every plane sent out, even though it be of
 the type once intended only for recog- nizance work, and Americans now training in England are being as care fully drilled in bombing as in handling 2 a machine gun.
 Lessons learned during the resist ance offered in the recent offensive have served to increase the already high regard of both British and Amer fcan officers in the air service for the [ ow-fying, bomb carrying craft. and, over the camps and countryside where aviators are being trained, planes are in evidence almost every hour. dipping down from high in the air and skim
 ming the nearby country, barely miss ing treetops and houses. It is the newer lessons they are learning, and observers back from the front where the allied planes did such remarka ble work not only in scouting and dis tracing the enemy but actually in breaking up formations and at points checking the onward movement have
 urged concentration on that form of training.
 British trainers detailed to Amert~ can aviation camps have been liberal in their praise of the new f1iers from overseas. their only criticism being that the Americans are "a bit too keen" Their tendency has been to go
 in for flying stunts rather too early in training, but even this the trainers have admitted is 3 valuable fault, al though not one to be encoura ged.
 It has been pointed out to the Amer jeans that team work as we'll as indi- |vidual efficiency is a prime requisite and the Americans have steadied themselves to the routine their train

 vancement if not for individual ap-
 plause. Fancy flying. the acrobat1c

 But as she sat among these vivid reminders of her brief happiness she became more and more unhappy She did not care what happened; she would not even take care of herself and began to neglect her appearance and her health.

CHAPLAIN HERO
WINS. THE Y. G.
Rescues Wounded Men Under
Terrific Fire
(By Newspaper ENTERPRISE Ass'n.)

( (By Newspaper Enterprise Ass'n.)
London, Aug. 1.-THE Rev Theo-
dore B. Hardy, a chaplain who has
been at the front since 1916, and who
had already won the medal of the Dis
tinguished Service order, has been
awarded the Victoria Cross for his
her0ism under fire.
Though SO years DID, he has won
great praise for his fearlessness and
his. devotion to the men of his bat
talon. Three examples of his valor
were cited in honoring him:
Hearing firing in No Mans Land,
heA followed patrol for 400 yards
beyond the front line and found an
officer dangerously wounded. He re-
NAMED under fire until he got help.
On another OCCASION, despite she'll
fire, he went to the spot where a Ger
man shell had exploded to extricate
two men. He got one out who had
been completely buried; the other was
dead.
In another battle it was believed
that all the British trops had been
withdrawn from a wood, but the chap
lain came out OF it, asking for help
to- get in a wounded man who lay
within 10 yards of pill-box which
had been recaptured by the enemy
The man was too week to stand but
the chaplain and a, sergeant got him
to the British lines.
