However, the outlook seems much brighter at presil ent. The revival will start off with a sweeping publicity campaign.

Although the attendance was unusually poor for various reasons the men had as good a time for a\l that Smokes were freely distributed and before long one might have thought that the house Vas on fire. The pro. -Saur. } gram opened with a short talk by H5&'.- ? Mr. Nabow who. though a town resident. is taking commendable interee! R - was followed by an address by Mr - .. - Konowitz who outlined the activities for the men and gave them, espeN cially those who were newly arrivals a glad welcome. "We are always al your command." he said, "and if yot need any advice, help or friendship we will be at your service. Privatt I I JAZZ BAND Wc could send you a complete Jazz-Band (or camp use.

His minstrel features were particularly good especially his impersonation of Al Jolsop. Pvt. Gordon then sang some comical ditties in which all the men Joined in. Cocoa and cake were served and the evenihg was called the end. On Sunday night the men spent a similarly enjoyable evening. Plenty of talent?and good talent at that were not larking: Wednesday night was another big - night. The weekly dance was hehl at the town club room at 4UJ >\ esi Seventh street and proved a great success. Both the town and the .men came with flying colors. The affair did not fall below the "high standard set by the predecessors. All of the affairs were very successful and it is hoped that in the future the attendance will be doubled and even tripled. Jewish Welfare Building. Plans and specifications .are at Washington for the erection of a Jewish welfare building. Wffen completed it Will cost $7,600. It will contain a meeting and lecture hall seating about four hundred, and a clubroom adjoining. As many of the comforts of home will be supplied. The building will be two stories high and very impressive, because of its unique, ; yet simple construction. The site has not as yet been chosen but it will no doubt be in the vicinity of the post, office. Contributions. , Contributions for this column will be more than wel<y>roe. This is also true of" personals. Send ull communications to the Jewish welfa^p board, "Y" 105, before Friday at noon. PUBLIC DRINKING'CUPS. we nave recently nouceci in various parts of the camp tin cups suspended from hydrants or faucets. These are apparently placed there for the convenience of those who desire to drink water. The public drinking cup. for these are nothing else, is a very dangerous thing. Examinations! of thesfe cups n-.ade at various labor- j atories throughout the I'nited States j show that they are not only covered ' with the scales from the lips of the ; previous drinkers but also contain i many germs which cause disease. - One Instance we know of some- j thing like forty cases of measles j which were spread in this way. It'is probable that not a few persons have i contracted syphillis by drinking from ' cups which had previously been used by a syphilletic. There are times in the historjf of most cases of syphillis when the disease is largely manifested by,small ulcers in the mouth I Should such a person drink from a I .1111 u-nul.l loavo mw.n it (ho or. ganism which causes syphillis and the next one to use the cup. should lie have a slight abrasion-on his lips such as a. cold-sore, would he very apt to contract syphillis. Every man in the army Is provided with a cup and he should tuke particular pains to keep it clean and uhe no other unless lie is certain that it has been cleaned since it was last used. Each female fly lays 120 eggs at a time. Her family at the end of the summer amounts to several millions. A swat NOW means a MILLION less flies during the summer. A flies bowels move about once a minute. Each movement contains thousand of germs. If a fly rests on | a particle of food for five minutes it will swarm with germs; many of them may cause serious sickness. ^Keep flies off your food. LOYALTY. A squad of fifty soldiers Faced sturdy Captain French; HeNsaid: "It's twenty volunteers I want to raid that trench. "The job Is fraught with danger, But one thing we must try ' To rout the Hun, destroy his base. For it means live or die." He turned his back, he loved them all; Ills eyes filled with tears. And said "Advance one pace, my boys, You twenty volunteers!" i "My God!" he crieu when faced about. And looked down at their feet, "Is there not one-among you all Who dare that Hun to meet?" Up spoke a young lieutenant, # As he scanned that tear-stained' face, - "Why, captain, when you .gave the j word, We all advanced one pace." WRITER UNKNOWN.
