Kaiser Bin's Chest

II would perhaps be fitting for that
modest violet of the central powers
William Hohenzollern-to accept the
crowns of Esthonia and Iivonia, as
has been urged by some of his sub
jects. If he does he will beat his
own record, for now he possesses
more titles than any other monarch,
A rare volume In the State Depart
ment includes them all. and also coy
ly states the Kaiser is a doctor of
philosophy. But here are the titles:

Thousands OF applicants for service
in the Y. NJ. c. A. overseas have
Quailcd before the Installation of the
prospect that lies before each man
who is accepted for the work that
the United States government has
asked the association to do in the
fight to win the war. Thousands OF
others have passed muster and still
thousands more are needed IL the Y.
NJ. c. A. is to succeed as the allies
hope.
This in a nutshell is a description
of the situation which the War Per-
sonnel Board of the National War
Work Council is facing. There is
this to be added, according to A. H.
Lichty. executive secretary for the
Central Military Department
The thousands of applicants who
have been rejected have included
many who picked out the Y. NJ. c. A.
as a nice soft branch of war service,
where they could see the war al
close range but always at a point OF
safety far from the rain of shrapnel
and machine gun bullets. The thou
sands who have been accepted include
many who have been under fire, but
for one reason or another have been
rejected in the combat branches OF
the service. There is nothing tame
about Y. NJ. c. A. work in this con-
flict. 1t involves actual danger 1t is
no task for a man faint-hearted and
Of low physical vitality"
Must Follow the Fighters.
Not every secretary who goes over.
seas is sent to the front line trenches
but he may be. The Y. NJ. c. A
follows the fighting man Of the allies
everywhere but over the top. The
man who goes up to the trenches
pitches a tent, or erects q hut or finds
cellar or deserted building in which
to begin work. One day the Germans
may raid those trenches, and by the
vigor of their assault kill or wounc
several of the defenders. Will the Y
NJ. A. secretary jump in, grab q
gun and help to repulse the foe? II
he won't. the Y. NJ. c. A. cannot use
him.
Every day young men. middle-aget
men and men who. under any other
