I Perhaps the best account of the' Y.M.C.A. in Italy is that in the Sun- day edition of the N. Y. Times of July 21, by Ugo Ara, formerly a mem- ber of the Flonzaley Quartette. We quote a portion of this referring to one Well-known here. In January, 1918, the Y.M.C.A. reached Italy. Unknown, reserved, modest, its representatives began to wander from hospital to hospital, from barrack to barrack, offering not only their time, love, and science, but also, with the Well-known generosity of the people of your country, a Whole rain of games, musical instru- ments, books, sporting articles, maga- zines, phonographs, and everything Which could recreate and amuse nor- mal and convalescing soldiers. The beginning was a failure. The most extraordinary rumors circulated about them. Hidden political and re- ligious aims were attributed to them. Difddence surrounded them. But, nrm on the rock of their tranquil consciences, the members of the Y.M. C.A. continued their benencial work. Finally, When the military and civil authorities, as Well as the entire population, began to realize what they were doing, with what a pure, clean spirit they were working, what a noble, human mission had taken them to our country, and what a sense of charity and love dictated each of their actions-when every- body at last became convinced that they really never meant to install Billy Sunday in the Vatican, turn the famous Maria del Fiore into a Chris- tian Science Church, all the sym- pathy toward those generous friends, and no manifestation of gratitude was deemed too great in order to prove to them that they were fully understood and appreciated. It was my privilege, during four delightful months, to be attached as a Secretary and interpreter to the Italian Commission of the Y.M.C.A. presided over by Professor J. Nollen, former President of Lake Forest Uni- versity, and it was a source of in- expressible joy to see their Work growing in success and importance up to the moment when the Minister of War, after a long, intimate inter- view with George Braden, Director of Physical Culture, recognizing ohicial- ly the enormous utility of the society, spread through the whole of Italy a bulletin directed to the commanders of the army, ordering them to open wide the doors to the members of the Y.M.C.A. and facilitate their Work in every possible manner. From that day Mr. Braden, a real apostle of health and happiness, Whose devotion to our cause cannot be praised enough, began a triumphant tour through the country, organizing all kinds of races and sporting events, installing courses in physical culture at the military schools, convalescent homes, and rest camps, and intro- ducing his 'file method', which was soon adopted by all the military in- structors of the kingdom. Inmates of hospitals were cared for with spe- cial love and patience and cheered with all kinds of games, moving pic- ture shows, musical performances, and regular instruction in sports like volley ball, shuffleboard, quoits, etc. The most touching and encour- aging letters of thanks and admir- ation poured in from everywhere. 'You have transformed my con- valescent home from a house of sor- row into an abode of joy,' Wrote a well-known Colonel. Another direc- tor of a hospital thus expressed his gratitude 3 'The austere atmosphere of my hospital has been transformed in- to an atmosphere of perfect serenity since your coming!

THE TE Ton Volume Xxxiu. LAKE FOREST, ILLINOIS, November 8, 1918. NUMBER 3, 60 New Men The Government has raised our quota I . Q . . for the S. A. T. C. unit to 200 men. Sixty new men will be added in all of which twenty have already arrived. Elgin has again contributed to our num- ber with twelve more men. Preparations are being made to pro- vide classes for the new-corners, in view of the fact that it would be impossible to enter classes with arsix weeks' handi- cap. Mr. Sibley is offering a course in English, there will be another course-in Mathematics, and those with previous work in Chemistry or Physics will have an opportunity to enter classes in these subjects. When the quota is filled, all the men in the Corps--are to-be divided- in four platoons, arrangedf according to height and distributed in the barracks accord- ingly. -We expect the quota to be-filled this week and doubtless will be able to print the full listx in our next issue. .l,T Spooks on. the Campus A good old fashioned, as well as a very modern military-Hallowe'en party, was given last Saturday nighti in- the Institute. All who were anxious for the good time which had been promised were as- sembled at Lois Durand- Hall. After being formed into squads they were marched over to the party in true mili- tary style under thevahle leadership of our top sergeant. They were immediately led. through the Chamber of Horrors--where they -were introduced to ghosts, wild cats hanging. from thee cei-ling,-. upturned: chairs. and bed springs. After their recovery from this scene of horror the guests-were again .formed into-squads and put through some real military. drill.: Then the squads were taken to the different stunts. The. committee incharge had planned for a. much. bigger-party, but the- men on the committee. failed, to .do theirpart at the-last. minute, and. it looked- as if there would be no party. Butswith the aid of Miss,Hamiltong..Dr. Wright and Lieutenant Thompson, who detailedmen to help, the. girls were. able tovgo ahead with, their- plans. and give a very suc- cessful ..party.. ' Personnel of S. A. T. C. Military Staff The Lake Forest Unit of the S. A. T. C. has for over a month been operat- ing under the new system prescribed by the War Department. Much of the suc- cess of this unit is due to the able direction of the commanding oflicer of the post, Lieutenant Frederick M. Thompson and his adjutants, Lieuten- ants Axelrod and Brown. Lieutenant Thompson's home is in Detroit. From the Detroit High School he went to St. John's Military Academy graduating the Univer- end of his the training After three he received his commission and was put in charge of the Army post here. Lieutenant Thompson has been marked by his sup- in Manlius, N. Y. After from St. Johns he went to sity of Michigan. At the Sophomore year he entered camp at Fort Sheridan. months' intensive training eriors as a man of extraordinary ability, with great power of leadership. He stands as an example of the highest type of manhood. He has a reserved and modest disposition yet beneath this then is a commanding nature that you cannot fail to see. Lieutenant Brown, the Muskateer in- structor, received his training' at the North Dakota State College, Fort Sheri- dan, and Camp Perry, Ohio. Lieut. Axelrod hails from Ohio but received military training in the cadet corps of the University Fort Sheridan. Lake Forest men-in the S. fortunate and this type here. enza epidemic of Nebraska and also at College, as well as the A. T. C., may well feel proud in having men of Not only has the influ- been most successfully handled, but a most delightful spirit exists between the military staff and the faculty on the one side and the staff and the student body on the other. Sarah Moore spent the week-end at her home in Aurora. News reached the campus Thurs- day noon that Germany had agreed to the Armistice, Wild excitement prevailed. Lunch was left untasted on the tables in Lois Hall. The girls rushed across the campus to an im- promptu mass meeting with the men and Musical School students. The band came forward willingly, leading the procession of girls, men, and faculty, all in military formation. The enthusiasm of the crowd grew as it neared the village where all the children of the Lake Forest Gram- mar Schools were assembled. After marching around Market Square the Parade halted while the band played the Star Spangled Banner. After a west of town, by this time children, fire cars, turned circuit of several blocks the students, who had been joined by school department and many east toward the Academy. On the way the Ferry Hall girls added ma- terially to the number and the Academy followed suit. After the Academy, Ferry Hall was visited where the paraders stopped long enough to give a number of 'peppy' yells and songs. By this time the original marchers were growing weary and fagged although their enthusiasm never lagged. On reaching Lois Hall the parade dispersed after more yells and songs, concluding with the Star Spangled Banner. With the consent of the powers- that-be arrangements were made for a Peace Dance in the evening at which Dr. and Mrs. Allee acted as chaper- ons. Scrap- in Faculty Another scandal on the campus! Monday afternoon the entire campus was startled by. the intelligence that the fighting son of Dr. Allee had exhibited his militaristic tendencies in a hand-to- hand ,combat with the daughter of Act- ing President H. W. lYright. The casualties resulting up to date consist of one black eye. Latest reports in- dicate that an armistice has been de- clared andwe trust that peace soon will be restored to the campus..
