Stand up and fight like heck, I
say.” Rut now his gait is lame

V. M. C. A. W AR WORK
NEEDS VARIETY OF TALENT
To win this world war the Allies
must have in the service many work-
ers in addition to the soldier* and
sailor*. The Y. M C. A. is helping
to meet this demand. It ie enlisting
men, over the draft age, i. e. between
32 and 50, men with varied talents
and capacity and training, and is
4,925 employing them in many ways. Sev-
eral thousand have been received, in-
structed and put to work in all parts
•>f the work!. Rut many thousands
more are needed now and far greater
numbers with the new draft. Some
one will say, what character of work
can we do 7 The answer is. all sorts
of work, back of the line* or among
men of the cantonments, work that
will r-uetam their morale, keep up
their spirit*, put heart into them
when they are discouraged, war sick
or homesick, or among the wounded;
help them in their rorrespon.lence
and entertainment end keep them
from unusual temptations
Who can do this* The man wh't
| can organise men, lead them, inspire j
"{ them, sympathise with them Men
