Recognition of the self-sacrifice and willingness to face death on the part of men who put aside their business to serve in the wur zone, under fire if necessary, as Y, M. C. A. workers, j is being given by the Ked Triangle or ganization in the form of certiticates of honorable discharge to those volun teers who were not sent overseas. In a statement announcing this, the per sonnel division of the National War I Work council of the Y. M. CA. sets forth the particular need of specialists) instead of general hut secretaries, de veloped by the war department's speed in returning the American expedition ary forces. The statement follows: The Young Men's Christian associ ation as one of the larger organiza tions that have been serving our mili tary forces overseas finds itself con fronted, following cessation of hostili ties, with the necessity for a radical revision of its program. The charac ter of much of the work required un der present conditions is quite differ ent from that called for while men were entering, leaving or in the trenches. Immediately following the armis tice it was thought that a largely in creased force would be added, and a call was made for more men. Later, when the return of the army from Great Britain was put into effect im mediately, and tho early demobiliza tion of the American forces in France was begun, it was found that entire clusses of men heretofore needed in considerable; numbers by thj;.Y. M. C A would not be required.' "The Y now bas over fiOOO workers in France alone. Hereafter the re quirements will be limited to certain specialists and experienced leaders. This change of program will assist very materially in conserving the gifts of the nation. Educational work will be largely increased for the armies of occupation, and to an even greater ex tent than before an all-around Red Triangle. program will be maintained. This will limit recruiting to special ists. "Many men, some of whom already had reached New York on their way overseas, have had to be returned to their homes because the particular form of work for which they wovp chosen will not now be needed. They will add to the number of men in every community disappointed because they did not get overseas but are entitled to equal honor with those whose un selfish and patriotic desire has not been thwarted. All will receive cer tificates of honorable discharge in rec ognition -of their patriotism." The Golden Rul Company !
