RICHNiONDERS ENTERTAIN THE
SOLDIER BOYS AT CAMP
LEE y. Nj. &. A.

Monday night in Camp Lee was a
record breaker at Army Y. NJ. C. A.
40. So. The big remnant OF the
10000 men remaining made three
hundred noble and beautiful maids
and matronS of Richmond their moth
ers and sisters. Six Of those so soul
fully honored were present to share
in the flood tide Of enthusiastic wor-
ship whcih 1900 khaki-clad heroes
gave them and their co.workers.
They were Mrs. Ora b. Stokes,
president of the National Negro Girls
Protective League. with Mrs. Rosa
Sutton Caffee, Miss Ethel NJ. Stith,
Nj IS Bertha Lockett, Miss GLADYS V.
Booker and Miss Martha A. Fowlkes,
officers and members of the league.
The JOY which their inspiring pres
ence gave was greatly enlarged by
their very fine and serv!ceable pres
ents.
They brought $40 worth Of care
fully selected graphophone records,
Il mahogany record cabinet and a
large supply of needles together with
soul-feeding words from their ma es-
tic leader. Mrs. Stokes so served and
gladdened Sergeant Thomas Harmon
Of the 3Sth Company of the 10th
Training Battalion, that he arose in
behalf Of the 1000 colored soldiers
of Camp Lee and praised the spirit
which resulted in the unique service
Of the Girls Protective League. He
stirred up the greatest response when
he moved that Mrs. Stokes be voted
Kegimental Mother and the other
ladies present and Their co-laborers
in Richmond, be Regimental Sisters.
The outburst OF greeting to First
Lieutenant Clifford l.. Miller, Chap
lain, the first commissioned officer
assigned to Negro organization was
volcanic and hcart-feed ,ng. Building
General Secretary Randall introduced
him amid deafening applause. His
every sentence in response was Vo-
c'fcrously applauded.
Lieutenant Miller comes from Tai
ladcga College. Alabama, where he
served as college minister. He is Il
graduate with A. b. and B. ID. de-
grecs from Fisk and Yale UNIVERSE
ties. Before working at Talladcga
he served Congregational Church
OF Haverhill, Massachusetts. He has
been power in the communit es
wherever he has laborod as we'll as
a constructive leader Of his own or
CARNATIONS. SO far no frict on has
resulted from his assignment here.
Every Negro soldier puts on dress
parade manners and salutes as # his
noblest act is being made: and all
white enlisted men and officers meet
ing Lieutenant Miller salute HIN.
Other great treats were associated
with the introduction Of the Chaplain
and the presentation by the Regi-
mental Mothers and Sisters. State
Y. NJ. G. a. Secretary J. II. McGrew,
and the Richmond Secretary, REV.
Scott G.. Burrcll and Mr.. John Pow
ell were guests and speakers to the
overflow meeting.
Wednesday night was made very
memorable and pleasant by the pro
gram and presence Of the Spartans
and their Ladies Auxiliary. Chaplain
Miller highly praised their fine efforts
which made very happy tho hearts
Of the 1900 men present. Mr.. Nor
rell and his co-workers have made
themselves lasting benefactors to the
khaki-clad boys at Camp Lee.
