'WHAT THE Y.W.C.A.'
DOES FOR MEN ON
ACTIVE SERVICE
By Rev. Andrew Lane
The Young Men's. Christian As-
sociation is making a 'nation-wide ap-
peal for funds for war service. The
campaign in Clinton and district is
to be conducted frotn May 20-25. You
have genero'usly supported the var-
ious worthy war service appeals that,
have been Presented to you in recent
months. I entreat you not to with:-
hold
ith-
hold your heart and your hand from
the appeal of the Y.M.C.A, Let your
response be generous. .
Many have, asked why the -Canadian
chinches have not undertaken a mil-
itary service similar to that of the
Salvation Army. The Young Men's
Christian Association in war service
is the answer to.that question. In a
sense the Y.M.C.A. is performing this
service for the Canadian churches as
its support is drawn largely from the
peoples of the various Protestant de-
nominations. It carries on a service
similar to that carried on by the Sal-
vation Army, but on a vaster scale.
In the First Great War the Y.M.C.A.
was the only unit of its kind operat-
ing in the front line areas, All along
the line in hastily constructed shelters
(usually of corrugated iron) the "Y"
served the fighting inert with hot tea
and refreshments whenever the men
were free to partake of the same—a
great service to cold or weary of
muddy men. The "Y" moved into
the battle line with the troops, and
other than the. chaplain service was
the only war service unit allowed to
do .SO by the military command.
Farther back in the war zone the
work .of. the. Y.M.C.A. was carried on
in great marquee tents, and at the
bases and in "Blighty" in large cab-
ins usually called huts. These afford
ed meeting places for the troops un-
der the finest Christian conditions
There were reading rooms with plenty
of good literature — writing rooms
with free paper and envelopes—re
freshment booths and lounges—games
and wholesome amusements. Where
it was feasible, the "Y" also planned
and conducted tours and arranged
entertainment for the boys. Best of
all the "Y" co-operated admirably
with the chaplain service. Nightly
their huts and tents (or some portion
of them) were turned into places of
worship where the boys who so wished
could sing_praise to God and hear His
Nord read and preached by a chap-
lain in the service of the King and
of the Ring of Kings,
It is quite impossible to estimate
the real service performed by the
Y.M.C.A. in the First Great War. Evil
spirts and customs 'followed the
troops—just as they do the trail of
r h t home. Thefol-
loweda 1 c. .. i.l4LC A,
lowed the trail of the troops too and
was a clean, wholesome, Christian
social centre where the boys could
congregate and enjoy fellowship and
sport and play in a decent atmosphere
—where healthy amusement and
friendship were promoted. The "Y"
proved to be a bulwark in the main-
tenance of a decent Christian charac-
ter in hundreds of thousands of men
in the last war. It will do so again if
you will give it a chance. Already
the "Y" is in the field with the
troops, working on borrowed funds
and counting in faith on your gener-
osity and support,
We are in a mighty straggle—It
will be mightier yet. Is your boy in
it or your neighbour's boy? Perhaps
he will be before this thing is through.
Would you like him to be followed
by such a Christian institution, as he
makes his way forward to grapple
with the foe? Better be generous—
This is a small duty as compared
with risking life—Perform it willing-
ly and grandly. As a veteran of the
World War I know first hand the
Christian importance of the Y.M,C.A
at the front.
