HUTS HEAR SONGS OF THE HOMELAND "Way Down Upon the Suwan nee River" to Hum of German Guns The American Camp in France, Nov. B.—Moonlight—"Somewhere in France." From far away the low rumble of guns. Over there, beyond those dim ly silhouetted hills and across valleys from this spot, invisible iron mouths are vomiting a deafening Niagara of death. Here, however, only that distant rumble hints of war. Had you noth ing else to tell you of the origin of that sound, you might think it. the roar of a long train, subdued by dis tance, the- breaking of waves on a rocky coast. Moonlight, and a straight white road, shining silver under twin rows of Lombardy poplars. Behind you sleeps, or seems to sleep, a tiny vil lage, tiled or thatched and quiet; nothing could be more foreign, more un-American, more French. Ahead of you, in a field, a few steps off this road, a black hulk arises; a big building with a peaked roof. Its door opens. It is amazingly full of men—men at tables, writing letters, reading magazines, playing checkers: Rembrandt men, whose faces are lighted by the yellow flicker of can dles planted on rails along the walls; men in some sort of uniform, and, at the far end of the great hut, a group of them about an older man, who sings, not to them, but with them. What is that tune? It's " 'Way Down Upon the Suwa nee River"—in France. It's the American Army, or a bit of it, and a bit of the American Y. M. C. A. in France. It is America in France. The evening progresses. In a quiet room at the back of the hut a T. M. C. A. worker is teaching French to a class of American soldiers, or tell ing them in their own style of talk, the history of France and the -ssues of this war. In one corner, behind a counter, another worker is serving ginger ale and crackers and choco late. To-morrow afternoon, the bul letin board informs you. there will be a track meet or a baseball game in the field outside; but to-night most of the men are following the admo nition of a conspicuous sign that reads: YOU PROMISED MOTHER A LET TER—WRITE IT NOW A couple of soldiers have rehears ed a sketch; they get upon the stago there at the far end and give it— exceedingly well. A "strong man" from the ranks twists horseshoes in to bow knots. "The Human Pin cushion" —who is Private Jones in military life—thrusts needles into his cheek and likes it. From some where "up the line" a rusty motorcar brings a group of Y. M. C. A speak ers'and. entertainers that hold the men's attention for an hour more, and answer their demands for en cores almost as long as they are re peated. It is a pity, you think, that there are not more entertainers; the men are so obviously hungry for them, xxx The hut was full. Now it over flows. Soldiers hang in at the win flows. Some soldiers can neither force an entrance through their com rades at the door nor squeeze a head between the heads that crowd the window sills. They have to go away. It is a pity that they have to go away, x x x The songs cease in the hut. Half past 9 o'clock. That overworked motorcar limps down the white road, bearing its overworked workers to their distant cots. Leaving a trio of other overworked workers to up the canteen, take account of stock and set the hut in order, the -sol diers must file away to their bunks in village haylofts, or their beds in those sheds that are now just visible in the neighboring fields. Within eight hours the bugle will call them to their morning's work, and they will rise to it—to these last prepara tions for fighting your battle and mine, dear sir—the better for that big hut, for the "Suwanee River," for the letter home.

CHIEF OF ST ATE TROOPS SUPPORTS Y.M.C.A.WORK Need of Clean Recreation in France Impressed on Maj. Gen. Clement Major General Charles M. Clement, to whose lot it has fallen to com mand the largest body of Pennsyl vania soldiers assembled together since the Civil War and who has served more than three decades in the state's military forces, holds that the first duty of officers and men is to keep themselves fit to fight. Health and strength are paramount says the General and men should be given every safeguard in the opinion of this commander. When the Pennsylvania Guards men were mobilized! the General de clared he wanted Pennsylvania sol diers not only to be the best equip ped and the best drilled, but the best fitted to tight. "We have the ma terial in these men and we want to maintain it at its best." was the way he put it. The campaign about to be launch ed by the committee in charge of the War Work Council movement in the ten counties comprising this dis trict has been thoroughly organized. There are committees for each of ten counties and the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., two great agencies, have joined forces. There is a distinct work for each in the general scheme of looking out for the soldiers and the members of their families who go to visit them. General Clement's idea of mak ing his soldiers fit to light, which is the soldier's business, and keeping them so, which is everybody's busi ness, is to be put into force at each camp and cantonment with the funds which will be asked next week. In his address at the Harrisburg Cham ber of Commerce war meeting re cently Secretary of War Newton D. Baker said America was going to send a strong Army, cquipned to Ihe last shoelace; armed with the latest and best; strong limbed, supple and clean to fight Democracy's battle. Students of war and observers of I military training in every land, nota-] bly in the United States, says that the efficiency of the Army that is, kept fit wins the battles. The mo-{ notony of camp life makes amuse ment essential. The War Work Coun-I cil plans to provide clean, wholesome j entertainment at the camps, to give j those little things that make men j contented and that will not makei them wander and get into mischief.' The practicability of the plan hasi been well established. The value ofi it is that it makes winners. The officers of the Sixth District committee, in charge of raising the| funds in the ten central counties of Pennsylvania are as follows: Ed-j ward J. StacUpole, chairman. Har risburg: William Jennings, treasurer, Harrisburg; Robert B. Reeves, cam paign director, Harrisburg; Arch 11.
