A. work on the Lorraine front in France, has had many Interesting experiences. Of course he is asked again and again in regard to the carping criticism of the Y. M. C. A., which has become quite popular in some quarters, but which in the light of real facts seems to have r.D real foundation. j Mr. Funk has only the highest praise for all the American organiza tions who were In war work In France, the army, navy, Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., Salvation Army, Knights of Columbus, and all others. What was accomplished by the United States, considering the diliicultiss to be overcome, was nothiug short of miraculous, Mr. Funk says, and there is glory enough for all. Some few mistakes were made by all the agencies at work there, but these are all overshadowed by the big things accomplished. I If every kick and knock against' the Y. M. C. A. servico overseas had been handled as one American cap tain treated a case in his company, ' which Mr. Funk tells about, there would be more praise of what the "Y" did and less criticism of what it failed to do. "The eeasor one evening came' across a letter frim a boy to his folks back home in which the Y" wasj panned and ssrved on toast with a1 garnish of all the Scotch- blessings ! and reverse English the boy had on ! hand. Now the censor is a pretty tired man and I should not have blamed him if he had let that letter : go. But there was an extra strong ' touch of exaggeration in. it that : roused the censor's sense of justice. . So he sent the letter to the cap-1 tain of the boy's company and the captain called the boy in. This is the conversation that followed: "Did you write this letter?' "Yes, sir.' - "Read it over. Is there anything ou'd like to change before it is sent?' " 'No, sir.' "Then there was a short pause in which the captain studied the boy and the boy set his jaw stubbornly. Finally: " 'Where did you write this letter?' "The Y, sir.' "Who gave you the paper?' "The Y, sir.' "It's warm and cozy and some thing like home there, Isn't It?' "Yes, sir.' "Where do you get your cigarets, candy, etc?' "The Y, sir.' "You're always sure of finding what you want here?' "Yes, sir.' "You go to the movies and a real show occasionally?' "Yes, sir.' "Who runs them?' "The Y, sir.' Doesn't cost you a cent docs It?' "No, sir.' "Thero was another pause, and the boy's face was redder and his expression softer. Then: "If you don't mind, sir, I'd like to see that letter again." "Without a word he took it from the officer's hands, tore it onco across and dropping it into the basket, made his salute, turned on his heel and walked out." Frank Turner returned home Sat urday from Hot Lake Sanitarium, where he has been for the past four weeks taking treatments for rheuma tism. He feels much improved. Mrs. Maud Pointer and Mrs. E. R.

The Texas Oil Critic for some years was known as The Critic, but oil, the all-absorbing topic of the day, led the publishers to make their paper an organ of oil. Tho Texas Oil Critic is not a house organ, but a free and independent paper published in the interest 01 oil stock Investors. It promises to to tho fncts ahout stocks and promotions just as it finds them without fear or favor.
