The first inrge teinperaiue society was founded in Washington v. 1810. Many others soon sprang 111 Id being. Next a "sign the-pledge" wave swept the country. This movement was give its impetus by churches in America und PLAY, SING AND WORK TOGETHER. Lorain, 0 has a community service league activities may be said to have just fairly begun with the ending of the war. The league has recently hired a play leader whose job it is to teach the whole city how to play. He will begin with about twenty play leaders, men from various fraternal and business groups of the city. Then these men will go to their associates and carry on the play instruction under the direction of the city leader of athletics. Organized athletics and games, healthful exercises'and recreation, walking for pleasure will become matters of daily experience and joy to everybody in the community as the plan is carried out fully and progress made. That is not all the community service is doing. It has a music department as well as a division of athletics. Lorain citizens, men, women, and children, will learn to sing. There will be public concerts and community sings which everyone can enjoy and in which all who wish may participate. The idea seems to be that a certain amount of sing ing and playing together is good for the people. It de velops a wholesome social atmosphere and a friendly good will that carries over into the workaday routine of life. In other words, people who sing and play together will also work together. This community, liko similar towns all over the country, learned this truth in war work. Any town may continue to profit from the lesson if it will, as this paiticular Ohio town seems to be doing.

Base Hospital Unit No. 46 is highly commended for its work by Surgeon General Ireland who requests that the organization be maintained if possible for future emergencies. The fact, also, is worthy of mention that only two other state uni versities, California and Pennsylvania, sent similar units to the front, and that our own made a record not surpas sed by the larger, wealthier states. One incident however, saddens the history of Oregon's hospital unit and makes (he celebration of its home-coming one of mixed emotions --the failure to return of its organizer and inspiration, Major Eberle Kuykendall. This young man, a son of Dr. Wm. Kuykendall, long prominent in state affairs, died in France, ending all too early a career of bright promise.
