F. from mili tary duty in order that their servfoes might be utilized by the Y. M. C. A. resulted In the recrfiiting of a large number of soldiers for “Y” work, and naturally resulted in u decrease in the number of men being sent from this country overseas. Up until the time General Pershing's offer was made, the Y. M. C. A. had done extensive recruiting for the pur pose of sending a large number of workers overseas. But when it was learned that workers could be secured In France—men well fittfMl for the work because of their familiarity with conditions—the services of many men in the United States were not needed. While many candidates for service overseas were disappointed over the outcome, the Y. M. C. A. could not flave acted otherwise. General Per- ting tcld the *‘Y" to take audr sol.

Modra has been with the Polish Ibrces continuously since his arrival in France five months ago. and has given many notable exhibitions of gal lantry and fidelity to duty.

From this hut he made trip after trip, carrying supplies to the men at the most advanced posts, and was Good Tires Speed Deliveries No car is better than its tires.
