Six weeks in a theater of the activities of this organization makes . J the. writer declare that it is an <:s --,1 sential to the Army. Far from be-j j ing polite reasoners of dilettantes, 1 ]; the Y. M. C.

I It levels all class distinctions in 'he ! broad-mindedness of its outlook and the general appeal that it makes tot innate manhood and to no especial ; class. In Camp Meade the Y. M. C.

It has put every dollar! where it would do the most good, | i and it has 25.000 men who proclaim j 1 it their home, their fireside, and the 1 association in which each of theni holds a personal interest. Its activities are manifold. It! i teaches men the strength of con- j tinencc and the value physically of j clean living. It has its meetings I where the boys are told of the dans- ! | ers of the primrose paths of dalli | ance. The men sing the grand old ! hymns and they read their Bibles. ' But the objective of the Y.

Thus the road I is easy toward cultivating one an-1 other and there grows between them a bond of sentiment that is stronger 1 than ordinary friendship. Stamps, envelopes, everything ofi that nature is furnished to the boys. | The interior of the building is large enough for basketball, and here thej interregimental contests are staged, I with seats enough for the spectators. Often there is a ring placed inside ) the building and boxing bouts are i staged. Nearly forty thousand soldiers are > here.

How War Tax Operates on Your Theater Tickets Much interest has been been man- I ifested as to why a tax of six cents I is charged when two twenty-five cent theater tickets are purchased. The war tax is one cent for every ten cents, and most of the patrons of the boxoffice think that for two twenty-five cent seats the war tax ' should be five cents. The man in j the boxoffice. however, asks for' six cents-. The ruling of the tax! bill is that for every ticket transac- I tlon there must be a tax of ten per i j cent, and every ticket bought is a I | separate transaction. Therefore in buying a twenty-five cent seat, the i I purchaser must pay a tax of three! | cents, and buying two twenty-five l cent seats, a tax of six cents. j | MR.
