A., has taken a very keen interest In the promotion of these sports, and much of the success of U?e undertaking has been due to his efforts. There is one feature of the men's ! entertainment that is absolutely unique. They have a moving picture : theater thai beats the world's record i for originality. It is an open air affair, a oicture of which appears elsewhere In ,. this issue of Trench and Camp. The | theater has to be oat in the open, of course, and the audience has to he f! separated. Such little details don't jj stop Mr. Beaty, the Y. M. C. A. mov- 1 ing picture expert, though. He built his theater out in the open, western ! corral style, with fenced-in compartments for the measles oontacts, i mumps, etc. The pictures are shown each night, with large and appreciative audiences. Mr. Beaty has found apt pupils among the interned soldiers, and they're running the show themselves now. This camp is very fortunate indeed in the personnel of the officers who command it Lieutenant Eddy, ranking officer, is a man with a vision?a successful business man in civil life who has brought efficient ideas into { the service. Ideut. G. C. H. Franklin, ranking surgeon of the camp, is run-1 ning his" department along-construe-j tlve lines that are mailing for the bet- | ter health of men. The whole staff at j the camp is working under the sym- i pathetic direction of Major General! Cameron, whose keen interest has led i to continual improvement. JEWISH WELFARE NEWS OF THE PAST WEEK! The Jewish welfare board of Camp j Greene was the guest of Dr. Bern-' stein, who is at present field secretary : of the Jewish welfare board, covering the southern camps. He Is well I Renown in the Jewish social service | field and gave up his position of su- j perlntendent of the Hebrew' shelter- j ing and guardian society in Pleasant- | viMe, N. Y.. to do war work. Dr. Bernstein addressed the Charlotte | community on Monday night and. visited the camp. Wednesday. April 3. the weekly dance took place in the town club- I room. Due to the warm weather, the ! ottanrfonro was rather small but the; affair, despite all. was a success. Through the courtesy of the Knights of Columbus the Jewish wd- j fare board was enabled to hold their services last Friday in tfaeir baUtUng. Rabbi William Lowenberg of Raleigh made a special tHp to camp to ad dress the men. He offldated at the ati tlce and In his sermon explained the true significance of the salute and I the necessary obedience in the army, i Jewish religious services will be "held every Friday night at 7:30 o'clock. AH are welcome. Mr. Seligmas. one of the Jewish , welfare representatives, left camp for! a short stay in New York. His ab-' eence is keenly felt by the men who cannot forget all that he has done for 1 them' especially during the last Pass- j I over festival. \\ I^LDIERSHEMGOOD ^ 1/ SERMONS AT T Raster Sunday -was the climax of a! very helpful and uplifting series of meetings in our hut. Dr. Jackson brought us his final message at the' evening hour when 18 men made a definite acceptance of Christ as their Saviour. Both the men of the "T" staff here and the enlisted men learned to love Dr. Jackson while he labored with us during the week. On Easter morning provision was made at the "Y" for both Protestants and Catholic to enjoy the worship of their choice. Chaplain Sheeran, of the 58th Infantry, and Chaplain Stamps, of the Casual Motor medianIcs> both held services for the men. We greatly appreciate the co-operation of these chaplains, who are not only trying to assist us but each other in making their work most effective. On Wednesday evening Dr. J. O. Grogan. the Y. M. C. A. camp secretary, gave us a splendid address. men to prize their physical, political and spiritual birthright. If any of the enlisted men came to the meeting doubting the justice of the cause for which they had enlisted their lives, they certainly must have gone away assured that they were in the line of sacred duty. We wish that every young American could have heard the address. HEALTH EXHIBITS. * The best way to avoid disease is to keep healthy.
