SOLDIERS REST HOUR.

Providing generously for the physi-
cal weil-being of his boys in khaki,
Uncle Sam does not stop there. He
throws open in all the camps whole
some recreati0ns for the soldiers play
hour, baseball, tennis and water
sports; at the same time he does all
that any government can do to protect
tae army community from the inroads
Of vice. In number Of environments
the Y. NJ. c. A. will have as many as

and instruction and giving facilities
,or study and writing. The American
Library association Is preparing to In
stall suitable libraries and give the
services of trained librarians. Lecture

meet the wants of young men who may
have been taken from their studies to
be made into soldiers, says American
Review OF Reviews. Altogether, the
soldiers mental and moral betterment
will be more effectively and systenati-
cally promoted than has ever before
been possible In the massing of so great

TRAINING REGULAR ARMY.

We read much these days OF the
d0lngs Of National Guardsmen and
National army conscripts in their can
tonments. but nothing ever appears
about the training of the regular army,
which Is now no small affair. ON April
! it contained 10000 officers and men.
Now they number nearly 35OOO0.
Where are they all? The natural pre-
sumption is that most Of them are in
France, where they are being prepared
for trench work, says Milwaukee Wis
cousin. Recent events have also
brought out the fact that number Of
National Guardsmen, possibly two d.
visions, have crossed the ocean. More
may be expected to follow soon. Wash
ington refuses to let 1t be known how
many soldiers Uncle Sam has in
France. but 1t is u fair guess that the
number is much larger than is general
ly supposed.
