George V. Funk, of Larned, who
has just returned from Y. M. C. 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

free lance and will continue to be so, !
favoring legitimate promotions and ,

erly done. It is opposed to fakej
advertising or any other destroying,
agency. Crawford believes that the:
Texas oil fields are too big and per-j
manent to permit fake stock selling
schemes to throw distrust into the!
game.
Gai'fleld Crawford tor years was(
