Pastor of St. James Church
Brings Inspiring Message
From Camp Lewis.
BOYS WELL CARED FOR
TSo riner Morale, Declares Rer. W.
E. Brinkman, Can Be Found Any
. wtaee; Men Drawn Together
by Ties of Mutual Service-
Aa Inspiring message to the folks at
lone from the boys In training was
brought 'to the congregation of the St.
James Lutheran Church yesterday by
Hat. W. E- Brinkman. pastor, who took
for his morning topic "A Message From
CamD Lewis.
"I have brought a message " said Rev.
Sir. Brinkman, "and personal word from
these great and thriving places to each
one of you who have brothers, sons or
Erlends at any ot toes places.
"I met many f the officers and me
rreat. bin:, strong, happy-looking lad
with faces tanned, bodies straight, wit
muscles strong as steel all of them
busy at something: drilling, training,
studying, preparing for the great tasks
when duty will take them 'Somewhere
In France.
"Our boys are well eared for at Camp
Lewis, equally as well as In any other
camp in tba country. Our uovenjmen
Is dolna wonders la providing tba 30,
000 to 40.000 men up there with th
best of food, good water and proper
sanitary safeguards, livery Army camp
such as Camp Lewis and the scores ot
others throughout the country are so
daily nothing less than great human
melting pots, where men are recast in
the mold ef common brotherhood. Caste
and class distinction are done away
with and forgotten.
"Men who have been used to luxuries
and social distinction at home are dally
meeting, associating, training, eating
and sleeping in friendly comradeship
with th fellows lower down, who have
been less fortunate in many ways. So
cial distinction and discrimination
which have prevailed between th
been broken down. Th men regard
each other as pals and comrades. They
are drawn toward each other by tie of
mutual service and aim.
"The protection offered the men
along th lines of their moral well
being is a great credit and commeftda
tion of the camp. In my opinion the
personal morality of the soldier in camp
Is far safer and superior tq th personal
morality of the young man in civilian
life in our cities. No finer morale
among the thousands of men can be
found anywhere than I found In this
camp and at Seattle and Bremerton.
"From observation the men in th
camps are not. In my opinion, any more
religious than they were before enter
ing in Army, out tney are more open
to the religious appeal. The T. M. C A.
and th Chaplains are doing a great
work and in my opinion the gospel has
never beta given a mora earnest pres
entation and better hearing than right
now in vry Army camp in th United
States."
