I COMMUNICATION. I V. M. C. A. Has .Made Good To the editor: The report emanat ing from New York which has been given publication regarding . the "widespread complaints by home coming soldiers of exorbitant charges Tor service in Y. M. C. A. canteens overseas" comes rather as a surprise at this time. In view of the great serviee rendered by this organization in the war just closed, which service has been so forcefully vouched for by hundreds of actual recipients, it seoms as if the fault-finders were go ing far out of their way to offer this nature of a criticism. Tho writer has talked with a number of our boys returned from the front and every one has spoken in most glowing terms of the wonderful part the "Y" has played in administering to the needs of and cheering on our sons and brothers to a most glorious vic tory. .. What the "Y" has done for our boys in the cantonments et borne be fore they went overseas . is history j easily verified by us. The good it has done "over thero'! is recorded history. He who would know the facts can readily ascertain them. While It is trne that much printed news given as facts turns ont to be otherwise, it seems almost inexplain able how so universally commendable statements as have been received first hand can be so distorted S3 truthfully to portray the condition which this latest Xew York report conveys. Arthur Guy Emper, author of "Over the Top" and. "First Call." who has seen active service in the trenches is only one of many who speaks in terms of highest laudation of what the -"Y" is to the boy in khaki. While your boy is in training and is stationed In the United States, do not, on every stormy and rainy night picture him sitting in a tent, cold, wet and shivering, miserable In body and. soul, because many times he i3 either sitting with his chums around a hot and glowing stove in a Y. U. C. A. hut-or tent, thoroughly enjoying himself, or at one of the numerous writing. tables, composing the letter which you are so eagerly expecting. A littls later In the evening'a concert will be staged by soldier talent, after which a ten-minute religious service lakes place. This ten-minute talk does-a- lot of good to your boy; it is a man's talk from a man to men and has a punch in it. Then the Y- It. C. A., closes and your boy returns to his tent to' sleep, well satisfied that he is in the army, and if ho has not already written to you, he will do so on the first opportunity the following day; "The .V. M. C. A. Is a. noble institu tion and is tho true friend of every soldier regardless of his religion or belief. , It Is ,an institution' which every mother should thank from the bottom of Tier heart, because it cares for her son In the right way. : Show me a soldier who has a disparaging word for tho Y. M. C. A-. and I will show you a Boldier who is a detri ment to the army. Even -in France the T. M. C. A. is much in evidence; It does not hug the safety zones be hind the lines, bnt goes right into shell fire. : I have seen Y. M. C. A. huts less than a mile behind the front-line trench; in fact, I have written letters io my own mother in the Y. M. C. A. while occasional, en emy shells would go screeching over head." " .-.
