The Kid Brother in Gimp
How Uncle Sam Ha* Organized the Training Camp
Activities to, Provide Healthful Outlets for the SokVen Energy
By James H. Cofliai
• (Continued from Yesterday)
Can Find" Congenial Pais.
There will be other attractions In
curup for the kid brother. Suppose he
lsji farm boy who has had few oppor
tunities to get to town or few pals
when he got there, or suppose he Is
that even more lonely chap, the boy
who does not Unci his sort of pals In
the gangs around his neighborhood.
Turn him loose In a city of 40,000 fel
lows his own age, with his play or
ganized as well us work, abundant out
door exercise, and good food, careful
medical attendance, supervision, and
personal hygiene. For the first time In
his life he feels the fascination of team
play, and has the benefit of associates
that will meet his very Idea of what
good pals should be. If he Is red
headed, freckled, and abounding In
rough boyish energy, and likes vigorous,
harmless deviltry, he will soon find
around him a gang of his own kind
larger than he ever hoped to see In his
life, and one that will help him develop
his every aspiration, whether It be to
lead or to follow the lead. If he Is a
quieter boy with Inventive or artistic
or literary tastes he can soon find con
genial fellows of his own way of think
ing. pals who probably understand
what Is in him better than anybody he
has ever met—better than he under
stands himself.
With all these attractions it might
be thought that the kid brother would
never want to leuve camp, but he will,
and the director of training camp ac
tivities knows that he will, and has
provided for him Intelligently. It has
been found that soldiers In camp will
go to town whenever they have an
hour's free time.
When Uncle Sam set out to select
sites for his army cantonments last
spring, there was excitement In every
community from ocean to ocean. Cham
bers of commerce aud citizens' leagues
brought pressure to bear upon their
congressmen and senators In Washing
ton In the effort to secure one of these
prizes. The prospect of a city of 40,
000 men suddenly set down within a
few miles of their borders made a di
rect appeal to the business Imagina
tion ! Think of the millions of pounds
of supplies to be sold to the canton
ments! Think of the thousands of dol
lars of soldiers' money to be spent In
the nearest town! The prospect was
dazzling. Every community that sought
an ariny cantonment sought it on this
basis of huanclal good to the town,
and when the sites were announced
there was Jubilation In the 16 towns
selected—Joy over the prospect of easy
money. But today these 10 towns have
a very different conception of a sol
1 dlers' cantonment. They know that It
brings responsibility as well as money.
[ They have found that their own town
standards must be Improved
Millions Spent by Communities.
More than three million dollars Is
being spent In these communities to
provide convenlecces for the soldiers.
And every cent of that money has been
raised In the towns themselves. The
soldier wants good eating places, good
movlng-plcture theaters with attractive
programs, well-managed pool rooms,
and places where he can rest and write
and read. Some of the community
work done by the little towns would
put a big town to shame. Gettysburg,
Pa., Is a town of only 4,000 people, and
It will have this population Increased
by 12.000 soldiers. It has fitted up
two big, centrally located recreation
rooms with pool tables, reading and
writing materials, and music. The col
lege there has turned over Its athletic
field to the soldiers with tennis courts,
baseball diamonds, running track, gym
nasium, and a hall for dances, enter
tainments, and movies. There was no
swimming pool for the soldiers. The
citizens raised $500 and built a dam
in a near-by stream. Junction City
and Manhattan, Kan., are even smaller.
They raised $3,000 for a soldiers' club
In Manhattan and ?8,800 for another
one In Junction City. The school play
grounds ad college athletic field were
turned over to the soldiers. Then a
sanitary survey of the city was made,
classes in French provided, and finally
thfese typical small American towns
did a typical American thing—famlles
Invited Individual soldiers to dine with
them In their homes.
Training camp experts have found
that when the soldier first comes to a
community the people of that com
munity can be classified in three
groups; known as the sentimental,
avaricious and the resentful. Many of
the sentimental are women, naturally.
They flock around the youth in uni
form, persuade him that he Is a hero,
and thrust upon him attentions which
quickly spoil him. They break down
his self-respect, pauperizing and giving
him false Ideas of his own family.
There are sentimental men who do him
as much harm; men of greater means
than his own, who entertain him in
ways that give him false Ideas of life
with which to go back home.
Soldier Makes His Own Way.
The avaricious group is made up* of
practical citizens, who exploit the sol
dier by overcharging and cheating him
and appealing to his baser desires. The
resentful group is made ap of people
who hate th« ldr-i of war. To them
the BoldTer peraoilliies tEey
take It out maliciously on the Innocent
kid brother who Is doing hlaf -bit the
best he knows how, and who la ten
times the man and the citizen that
these busybodies Imagine themselves
to be. But when the soldier comes
he makes his own way. He Is clean,
moral, strong, and enthusiastic. He
has his work and his play In camp, and
looks to the town only for a reasonable
amount of amhaenient of some other
kind. Theexperts "who org«U<ize the
soldier's play also organize the town.
They show the people that this boy In
uniform Is still a human being entitled
to human ties—friends, church, fra
ternal groups, the companionship of
good women. He Is neither to be pat
ronized nor slighted, pauperized or ex
ploited. He was a civilian yesterday,
uud he will be tomorrow a better civil
ian for his military training and the
service he has rendered his country.
Even the resentful group changes. They
see that opposition to the soldier must
surely react upon their community. If
thoy evade their responsibility to him
the result will be broken homes, vice,
disease, brutallsatlon,. and lower com
munity standards. If they meet the
responsibility by constructive commun
ity effort they protect themselves and
the soldier and benefit their coto*
munlty. ?e '"«•;1

Some Camp Songs.
[Collected by Kenneth S. Clark,
representing the War Department
Commission on Training Camp
Activities.)
"KaUer Bill."
Tune: "On the Beach at Walklki."
Kaiser BUI, oh, we am coming,
With our Army over sea.
And you forgot our motto,
Which Is, "Do not tread on me."
It's a Job we never started,
But we'll finish Germany;
And we'll hang you. Kaiser Wil
liam,
On the highest linden tree.
"Good-by, Bill."
Tune:"Good-by Girls, I'm Through."
Good-by. Bill, you're through.
You'd better start to fret.
We'll tie a can to you.
Without the least regret.
Our Army's mobilizing. It sure
looks terrorizing.
We will keep this aim In view:
We'll get you, we'll get you,
Good-by, BUI, you're through.
"Hot Time."
Here we are, and we're off for Ber
lin town.
We'll turn Bill and his army up
side down.
And when the Allies make the Kai
ser shed his crown.
There'll be a hot time In the old
town that night. Oh, baby!
Mined!
The makings of a small panic were
present at a downtown dairy lunch a
few days ago when a quantity of gns
exploded with a noise like a German
bomb, and the lid of the coffee pot as
cended to the ceiling. At first all
thoughts naturally turned to the war, 1
and to the probability of the building ■
being mined, and u few of the custom- j
ers rose and were about to search for
a means of exit.
Little damage was done, but a wait
er who was observed in the act of ,
trying to climb over the counter, was I
blushing furiously: and the waiter who |
was doing business with a lighted match
Just prior to the explosion remained j
for some time paler than usual.—In*

GENIUS INSPIRED BY WAR
John Masefield, English Poet and Nov*
elist, Sees Feast of Spiritual
Conceptions In Future.
John Masefield, the poet and novel
ist, thinks that the devastating war In
Europe by way of compensation will
Inspire great Intellects snch as flour
ished after the Napoleonic struggle:
"We shall have new Darwlns, Spen
cers and Carlyles with new messages
thnt will reach the whole world. We
shall have new Shelleys In poetry. Peo
ple will feast upon new spiritual con
ceptions as remote as possible from
the great tragedy. They will turn to
the romantic and fantastic, the beauti
ful, Just as they did after the Napo
leonic wars."
Thnt is a consummation devoutly to
lie wished. Certainly In the present
dearth of genius It Is gratifying to be
lieve that the world has a new Shelley
and a nefr Byron In the cradle, born at
the outbreak of the war as they were
born nt the outbreak of the French
revolution. Perhaps there are other
Darwlns and Spencers and Carlyles to
conic. But considering that the "First
Principles" was published In 1862, "So
ciology" in 1872 and the "Descent of
Man" In 1871. did the Crimean war and
our own Civil war have any part in In
spiration? S'lall we Infer that the war
between the states stimulated mid-Vic
torian literature while doing little to
inspire American letters?—Exchange.
