You're Invi To Attend Our GRAND OPENING RECEPTION ted rO-DAY Saleifi Well Represented Among " Y" Workers Who Make Good In Important Capacities Oversea Pitcher Maintains Record By Refusing To Oppose Phil lies At Home. New Vork, Sept. 2 Slim Snllce rnme very near being the most Important part of the famous. Red machine that has run rampant through the National league this year, but there are very rew tans who know that his fume ex tends also in another direction. Siiliee, canny, wise old pitcher, never has situ ted a game aguinst Philadel phia in its home hand box. In fact, only thirteen stnrts against (Philadelphia's alleged National league club have been made by the elongated southpaw. The reason for Slim's refraining from pitching when his club visits Phil adelphia is simply this: lie is easy for the opposition to touch for long flies. And loug flies In the (National league bailiwick in the sleep city tire home runs. Some one would be b'renking the home run record if Sallee did much serving. Occasionally the left handed master has finished a hall game against the Phils, but never In all the years ho has been curving in the National league under the colors of St. Louis, New Vork and Cincinnati has ho started against the Quakers on their home lot. Quite a record? Bute I i The (Hants have been accused by Cincliinatians of attempting to buy u pennant. What would they say if they were told that Col. Jacob Support nnd Col. T. L.

By James Elvln Secretary .Vnleni Association. Probably no other community iu the United States so .t as many men into the Y. M. C. A. service according to pop- j ulutiuu us our town of Suleui. 1 have I been iu elosetouch with the work of the Salem men overseas and every onii has 1 made aood. Watson, Holvorson nnd my-j self were the first three to go. I Watson was placed in charge of the I circulation department which was then in a state of great confusion. He work ed up an efficient system, u system that wus adopted by all other welfare orga nizations, and part of it by the army itself, and. for this service he was high ly commended by army officials. He Is now emnloyed iu a bankers office in New York City but is homesick for Sa lem and the west. One of tho biggest jobs in tho Yt M. C. A. service overseas wus put across by Hulvorson. The transportation problem was a most difficult one. We needed at the head of the transportation depart ment a man who could handle other men, a man who could bg entrusted; with vast sums of money, a man who whs a good "buyer and Hulvorson tinned -jut to be just the man to fill the bill. L"fore leaving France all I had to do to muke myself solid with any of the transporta tion men was to tell them that I was a friend of Hulvorson. For the first seveu mouths' of my own term of service I worked as a divisional secretary under the direction of Dusty Rhodes. I was then given a few weoks experience in front line work and every duy and sometimes at flight I carried my fifty pound pack for three miles to the trenches to distribute supplies to the men. F. W .Porter was very unforiunnte never getting farther than England staying there only a short time before ho was obliged to return to America on account of sickness. Sick as he was h devoted every minute of his time to the work of cheering the sick and the wounded whom he found in the English hospital where ho was a patient. Mr. Porter would have been a most valuable helper for he certainly was Intensely in terested in every effort to hip our sol diers. Can you imagine such a man n Carl IT. Klliott, former pastor of the Presby terian church, posing as an nuthoiily on the relative merits of Velvet and Prince Albert tobacco and Lucky Strike, Sweet cups, Piedmont, Pall Mall, Camel and other brands of cigarettes f Mr. Elliott was the successful hut secretary in a large hut near the front. He returned home with me on the same bout and told me that iu the Inst mouth of his work with the soldiers in the army of occupa tion as a little side line he had written home fiften hundred personal letters for the doughboys. Mr. Klliott expects to be located in one of the towns in Ohio. II. A, Harris never got Miy farther than Paris. We had nearly 12,000 work ers in the Y. M, 0. A. service and ns these workers were constantly on the move it was some task to keep correct records. Harris was just the men ifor this job and he has kept records ever since he landed iu Puris rearly a yer.r ago. ' '- s Oue day while traveling in southern France I met another Y man and 1 said to 'him "What is your particular jobf he said, "I'm the divisional secretary at Nevers. ' ' I ssid, ' ' Then you must know Ray linker." He said. "I certainly do, and I wish that all Y. M. O. A. men wore All day and evening to 9 p. m.

He is part of the backbone of my division and is a sincere, capable and enthusiastic work er." Professor Walsh, formerly of Sulem, was fortunate in securing the Croix do Ouerru. Walsh was a great fcilow iu doing favor for the French soldiors. His work was entirely with tho French army. When the armistice wus signed there was a French sergeant who has been promised his commission. Of course aft er the armistice it was very difficult thing for any French soldier to get a commission. Professor Walsh went di rectly to one of the leading French gen erals and told him the circumstances concerning the sergeaut and in a very short time the commission was granted. 1110 kronen, general was astounded iu the first place, because un Amciicun would leavo his profession and his fam ily and come to Franco to holp French soldiers and also "that any American should interest himself in the advance ment of u French sergeant. During his stay in France Professor Walsh w en gaged in doing little acts of service which finally attracted the attention of French officials and as a reward foi these services he was given the. Croix de Guerre. I have read the official order contain ing the citation for Burgess Ford, an other Salem man. ,, Ford was stationed in the Toul section and went over the top with (he men assisting them in every possible way under the dealiest shell f iro. Any town might well be proud for the words of commendation that were bestowed upon Ford in the official com munication from his commanding offi cer, l might sav in passing that iittv- four of our men were killed in action mid that twenty-three of our men re ceived the highest honor given by the United States for bravery, the distin guished service cross. I am not alto gether sure but I belie vo Ford's cita tion was for the I). S. C. Another man who has done good work for the Y is Clinton Ostrander, former ly Boy Scout secretary of the boys de partment of tho Sulem Y and ta resident of our city. Clint served with the army until January of this year when he was transferred to the work of tho V. M. C. A. About 800 soldiers were transferred into tho work of the Y. M. C. A. Rfter the armistice was signed. Cliut worked as assistant to one of the regional re ligious directors and put up a fine piece of work. Guy Fitch Phelps, former pastor of the United Brethren church of our city, worked- as a guide in one of the sight seeing department iu tho city of Paris. He also put over a very important ptet of work. . Lockhart, formerly editor of the Statesman, lm had the privilege of act ing as guide to thousands of doughboys taking them through the Louvre. When the men .were drawn from the advanced area back in to tho S, O. S. it became a most difficult matter to bil let them. One of the most important tie mobollxnticn centers was the one situ ated in the vicinity of LeCans. Seven or eight divisions were billotted in the vicinity of this town. It w;a a Salem man who finally mastered the pioblcw of serving efficiently these huudicds of thousands of men. And O. L. Ferris, formerly with the Thes organisation, rose to the highest position for u wel fare worker in that area and is now and has been for some months past tiie i gional director of all Y activties. There were several other men whose nn-nie's t rannot now recall who same from the vicinity of Salem and who did good work. This is a great record for a little town the size of Salem to send fifteen men all of them with responsible business and professional obligations and all of them, with one exception, meu with families and I wish to iiupha nine the fact that I. doubt very much whether any other town in America with the population of Salem has such a rec ord, Salem, I am sure, is very proud of the splendid record of her soldiers, sail or and marines, and is also proud of the record made by the men she scut into the service of the Y, M.
