GROWING IN ,PEACE-TIME WORK
Youth Must Serve" Slogan of Organiza-
tion Famous In Nations Abroad and Now
Gaining Foothold in United States

There is a saying Youth must be
served We in Toe H say Youth
must serve"
1t was the Prince of Wales who
summarized in this fashion, the real
spirit and meaning of the Toe H
movement that is issuing it's chal-
lenge now to youth in America.
Established in Washington Is
months ago, the local Toe H group
has become by now a fixed institu-
ton in the Capital. A group of young
men, devoting their spare time to
serving youth, are endeavoring in
various ways to translate this real
meaning Of the Toe H movement.
Visitors who come to the Wednes-
day evening "open house." held week
ly by the members Of Toe House Mark
1, at 219 G street, are greeted by
enter here" That is the spirit of
comradeship that prevails throughout
the Toe H movement.
The story of Toe H is the story of
house that love built, that only love
could build The house stood in one
of the main streets of Poperinghe,
a place which the soldiers Of that
area knew during the World War,
as the first outstanding and habitable
place when they came out of the semi
circle of unspeakable mud and suf-
fering, shown on the military maps
as the Ypres salient. The salient
has faded completely from the aliases,
but Talbot House, as it was first
known, remains as living memorial
to those who. by the gift of their
lives, stand before the world, ex-
amples of service and sacrifice.
Founded by Padres"
It was founded by two padres" Of
the Church of England, but it was,
as it's signboard announced, Every
mans Club'-Whatever ones religion
or rank.
Unfettered fellowship among men,
bers Of an immense, hardpressed
family of men was it's whole aim,
and the seal of this, it's purpose was
set in the upper room among the
bench served day by day as the
altar of the Carpenter of Nazareth
Actually "Everyman's Club" as it
stood in the Ypres salient, is already
to be found, pretty closely repeated
all over England, Canada, New Zea-
land. Australia, Maylay States, South
Africa, South America and the
United States.
Talbot House was named after Gil
bert Talbot, son of the Bishop of
Winchester, who was killed in action
In July, 1915. But that was not the
end. 1t was rather a beginning. In
December of the same year, a house
bearing his name was opened in
Poperinghe and friend and leader
of mine, was put in charge Of 1t. He
was a chaplain in the 9Th Divi-
sion, friend of Gilbert Talbot, named
and known only as "Tubby" Clayton

FINDS few BOYS PLAN
TO ENTER MINISTRY
Educator Discovers Only Seven in
Canvass in Five States-Farm-
ing Also Unpopular.
By the Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA, November 13.-
Surprising results have been found
regarding high school students ideas
of life in canvass Of $4,000 boys and
girls in five States by Montaville
Flowers Of Pasadena, Calf, educator,
lecturer and author.
Among other things, Mr.. Flowers
found that high school students had
a big laugh for farming or the min
istry as their life work. In survey
Of high schools in California, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey, Delaware and
Maryland, Mr.. Flowers said he had
found only seven boys who admitted
they contemplated entering the min
istry.
The distaste for farming, too, was
so prevalent. that the educator freely
predicted that tremendous changes
in agricultural production will have
to take place if the present defections
from the farms continue"
"Why, the exodus from the farms
has just begun" he declared, "and
already it is admitted to be one of the
country's most serious problems. If
the present mental attitude of boys
and girls, as revealed to me SO far
does not change, important readJust-
ments may be expected"
The aspiration for "gentleman's
Jobs" was almost universal. even in
the more remote districts, he said.

First 1t got a queer name, a nick
name, as most loved things and peo-
pie get. Men called it T. H., until
some enthusiastic fellow in the Sig
nal Corps gave T the name it had
in the British telephone signal code
and it became known as Toe H.
That is the way the Toe Fl move
ment got it's being. In America, it
is but at the beginning Of its life
and work. Groups. exist in various
cities on the Atlantic seaboard and
efforts are being made to develop
them as a basis of expansion across
the continent.
House Established Here.
Toe House at 219 C street sets out
to be a fellowship, or-more simply
family. It's 80 members seek to
carry on" It's padre" is Rev
Andrew Bird, pastor Of the Church Of
the Pilgrims. One of the leaders of
the movement in Canada, Hugh E.
Ketchum, World War veteran, has
been loaned to the Toe H organiZa-
ton in this country and is directing
the work in Washington.
These young men, employed dur
ing the day time, devote most of
their spare hours in one way or an
other serving youth. Some are doing
Boy Scout work, others are engaged
in hospital work, while still others
are running boys clubs. The class
room, church and mission, the factory
and even the prison offer them op
portunity to render some sort Of
service to those less fortunate or in
guiding the youthful stranger to the
realization that the work he is doing
does not matter so much as how he
employees his spare time.
The Toe H movement was started
in Washington through the efforts of
Mrs Katherine V. II. Wylie, who has
made it possible for the small group
of volunteer workers to occupy their
present quarters, the members pay
ing their board and lodging accord.
ing to their means. Coleman Jen-
nings is chairman of the local COM
mittee behind the movement, the
other members being DR.. Larkin w.
Glazebrook, Rev. Andrew Bird, Lea
Luquer and Hulburt Wollfall. Right
Rev. Charles H. Brent, Episcopal
bishop for western New York and
chaplain general of the American
Expeditionary Forces, is president Of
the organization in the United States.
A guest night is held at the local
Ehouse every Wednesday evening,
when resident and nonresident mem
bers and candidates for admission get
together. At these meetings some
prominent social worker usually ad-
dresses the members on work as
sociated with the -Four Points of the
Toe H Compass"
These four points, embracing the
purpose of the organization, pledge
the members "to think fairly, to
love widely, to witness humbly and
to build bravely."
