Old Homo Week. I ^ s t week we gtjvc an account of

Old Home Sunday. Today we have a brief report of the doings of Wed­nesday, July 30, the day we celebrate.

This was the eighteenth annual ob­servance o f . t h e Old Home. Weok so dear to all old settlers a t home and tbe coming biick to- the dear old home and town by those abroad. Added to the usual event was the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the set t le­ment of the town and the welcome home of thc soldiers and sailors of t h e ' l a t e war. These three combined gave unusual cause for celebration and rejoicing. Several of our boys are still overseas; others a re yet fn camps in the United States, but all were remembered and each o.ne would have, been gladly .welcomed had It been possible for them to be here. . The day dawned most propitiously and at an early hpur people began to arrive in great, niimbers. and by ever>' conveyance obtainable from electric car to the bicycle, arid the square was .soon thronged with an eager, happy crowd of. .social people looking for old friends and enjoying the cheerful greetings of rnany new ones.

The-first event was the registration of visitors in the library, In charge of the ch.airman of the reception com­mittee, James A. Litchfield. Every soldier and sailor, every gue.st and resident was ' Invited to register for the edification and gratification of those who may come • af ter us. .\ great 'many availed themselves of this privilege.

At ten o'clock 6. baseball game be­tween the married and the single men took a large port ion of the younger people to Marshall park, where they witnessed a very good game, won by the married men.

At eleven o'clock a reception and welcome home, was given to the re­turned soldiers aild sailors at the Bitter Memorial l ibrary, after which a group picture was taken of them on the library. Much to the di.sap-polntment of everyone the bronze medals which were Intended to be publicly presented to the boys a t this time, had not arrived, and will be giv­en them later.

After the boys of 1917-1919 had 'been photographed, the b^i's of '61. headed by Abner B! Hale; ninety-one years young, stood up and had their pictures taken.

Noon lunc.h was then served ln_ the Congregational -vestry to all who wished.

At one o'clock athletic sports on the common tjt the Center and at two o'clock n game of baseball between the T.\mcnburg Athletics and West Fi tchburc at Marshall park, won ity L. A. -\. 8 to 4.

I-'rom two to three o'clock tho Mili-tar.v band gave .a concert on the L.vver common, where, a .st.and h.a.i boon erected for tho speakers, near Th. bandstand, and seats provided for tho audience.

At three o'clock James .\. Litchfield, gave a very interesting historical ad­dress, beginning with December ", 1719, and clo.sing with t he se 'words ; "Lunenburg, called the mother of many towns, the mother ot the sreat city of Fitchburg. where are mado the best ginahams .and saws in the world. Lunenburg .always ready to iz.. over the top."

His address abounded in most in­teresting facts concerning the early settlement of the town, and its name, the part takon in the various wars, names o'f somo of *he early settlers and incidents.of their lives, prices of food, clothing. Hour, corn, oats, pota­toes, wood, niybt's lodgings, etc.. in 1776; again in ISfil. At the close of his address ho was enthusiastically appl.auded and Iho b.and gave a soloo-tion. after which I.ieut.-Gov. Chan­ning H. Cox. of Hoston gave an ad­dress.

The speaker hohl the closest at ten­tion of the Croat audience for nearly an hour in nn ohiquent. s t i r r ing a,d-dress vipon tho ciirrent topics of the day. In rlo.s-n: be said "Wo hnve every reason t.i bavo confidence in the future. Thoro will always be pcs-siftiists but !ho r..nduct of the boys over there wh-. fought .so bravely In the 'Lost T'.attnlion.' men from the east side of Xow York city, proves that the hoar! of . \merica is trtic and sound to tho roro Thc country has been ma<lo bo".-!', has been sanctified by the sacrilico ..f tbe boys. Let us try to do wh.'.i they d id—make the world a litllo honor."

At this timo i; was five o'clock and time for tho h.mquet. fpr which every ticket hnd i.ecn sold, hut so many more wero ca'.lo.l for t h a t tables were set In tho l..wor hall and numbers iriv­en out until ".'-" were sold, and every seat in both h.i'ls were taken. Lunch­es were soM i'X- tho Womnn 's club, tho C. K. sooioty ..nd the Boy and Girl Scouts.

Major lloniv U. Wheelock was tbo .after-dinnor t-i-.-.tker. who w a s - c n -.thuslastiralK i.-rolved and often ap­plauded as ho I..Id of hl.H work and experience, .ir.l that of his .soldiers In France, at S.>iss ns. In tho Toul .sec­tor and tbe Moaiix sector, a t Chateau-Thierry and at .''t. Mlhlcl. I t was .1 most thrilling account and gave the people hero some Idea of the kind of experience our boys we're hav ing in a far-away countr.\ in t ime of war .

At seven n'rhiok thc people again gathered on the common and wit­nessed a very Interc-stlng exhibition by the Boy Scouts—putting up tents, flre drill. emerKency work in accident and drowninc. signaling, relief work, etc.

Following this came J o h n Thomas, great Impersonator, who created all sorts of fun for everybody—telling stories, impersonating • all sor ts of people, oven t.-iklng the tflace of the leader of tho band with gestures and actions fast .-.nd furious, and ot last iicndlnK everybody h o m e t ired but happ\ It \ \as 1 \er> flttlng climax to a most succc'sful OM Home Da\ and reu i ion

The press announces that aa effort will be made in the Senate to separ­ate tUo Covenant of the League of Natlptls from the Peaco Treaty. Would such action bo compatible with t 'olted .Stati-s honesty?

Since Swtion- i of tho Treaty ot Peace niakes specilic provision for a League of .N'.ations, it Is sale -to as­sume that the following sections are framed on the basis of the forma­tion and functioning ot euch a League.

Remove Section 1. and most, if not all, of the succeeding provisions of the Treaty wiil have to bo changed to meet changed basic conditions.

A careful re.ading of' the terras of the Treaty will show that certain pro­visions win be possible, only if a League is formed to function as i protection and a guarantee. Further more, in the correspondence leadinj. to the Armistice It was specIDcally stated by Germany, concurred in by the United States, and later accepted by the allies, that the negotiations for an Armistice should proceed upon the basis of President Wilson's speech of January 8th, 1918, which Included the now famous "14 points", the Wth being a provision for a League of Na­tions. This speech, and Ihe Presi­dent ' s subsequent speeches, laid down certain )]rlnciples upori which a Just peace could be made, and these prin­ciples were accepted by the Allies as well as by Germany. Shall we now repudiate one o t these fundamental principles and abandon the first sec­tion of the Treaty ot Peace ori which all subsequent sections a re based?

Are we as a people willing to join those who Ignore their agreements? Are we ready to placer-ourselves be­side. Germany In this respect?

It Is not conceivable that the people ot the United States will willingly permit such a breach of faith as -would be Involved in the separation of the Covenant from the Peace Treaty.

It Is Important howover, tha t tho members ot the United Sta tes Senate should not be lett In.doubt as to how their constituents feel about this. It will not do to let a group ot politi­cians because of antagonism to the administration, misrepresent the senti­ment bf tlie people on this paramount .question.

The fact that there is a Republican majority in the Senate by no means implies that the majority ot persons, or even the majority ot the Republican party a re truly represented when .these men voice their own opposition to the League of Nations. For it -will be remembered that every State re­gardless of size or population sends two men to the Senate and the mi­nority a t one Stat.e may be numeri­cally much l a r g e r ' t h a n the majority of another State. In AEaseachusetts, tbe last Senatorial election returned a Democrat 5o that it is fair to a s ­sume' that the Senior Senator of .Mass­achuset ts , Henry Cabot Lodge, repre­sents but a minority *.' the people ot thl.4 State.

Also a large group of Republicans are Independent thinkers and are con­sidering; this Important question ori its meri ts irrespective of politics. Ot this group, Mr. Taft is the notable lea­der. That a world issue be made a question of party politics wlU not be tolerated by the people of the United Sta tes , and this the Senate should be made to feel. I t is therefore ' of vital Importance that every voter should write to his senators and reg­ister with them his wish relative to the Covenant of the League of NaUons as embodied in the Peace Treaty.

It you find yourself in doubt as to whether you wish to advocate the ratification of the Covenant, con­sider frankly the al ternative. Arc you content with the system and interna­tional political tnethods that have ob­tained in the past , and whicli have resulted in the Great War? Are you willing to let things drift along as before with every probability, nay certainty, of a repetition of this catas­trophe on even a larger scale? Or is it worth while to t ty some change ot plan to see whether better things can be brought abont? Have you any bet ter plan to offer than a League of Nations? Granting that the Covenant as amended does not meet ail the views of every one, does it not express a purpose greatly in advance of the old system? Do you dare to turn down this new scheme that offers a hope of better things, and cling to the old scheme that kills all such hope? . \ re you willing to tread over again the paths that lead inevitably to Arma­geddon?

Complaint is made that the Coven­an t is not perfect; can you claim per­fection for the oM system to which you cling? The fact is tha t very littla of perfection is realized even in the siiriplest mat te rs ot every day life. For example, who can claim tha t his home, hie clothing, his furniture is perfect, or is anything more than a compromise with his Ideal?

Is your food all perfect, or Is it merely the best you can get trom the combination of your provision dealer, yotiT pocket book and your cook? You can go on indefinitely citing In­stances, only to find that even with the higheet ideals and the most honest purpo?e on the part of all concerned, all things human fall short of per­fection.

Then are you quite reasonable in expecting that the Covenant ot the League of N'atlons. a thing ot groat magnitude, the first of its land, should be a perf.'ct document?

It unquiNstionably represents a com­promise and implies some concession on th" part of every member ot the Versailh^s ronferenc^.'. It may be con­sidered as xixo niinimiini' program of the ronf'^reos, and because they recocTiiz. tha' it is not perfect, they have nia.i'- i-iovision for .amendment at any -l-.e. I'nd.-r these conditions. Is it no- \i-.-th Iryint; as the tirst step toward .1 ne,y world order?

Ratify ' l i - Covenant: let thn I>>ague of NaUons !..> horn, thon help to de­velop (' ;.) ;!'.oi-t Ihe constantly chang­ing an.! (I.'vilopinf: world. Once In exist.'ni ,• xt rnn grow, bul do not de­ceive yi>i:isolf into thinking that It can he killoil lirst and Improved after­wards.

T H E P S Y C H O L O G I C A L M O M E N T . . Mr. T h r i f t has been offered a W 5 7 hat for $11. If he pays »3.95 he flet*

the hat—and stung, and herein lies a « o r y .

Ne'W that real summer -weather is here so also is a smooth and oily-tongued gentleman with an al­leged Spanish accent and a wicker Suitcase. With the aid and assist­ance of a near Spanish accent, he willtell you—if you come in his path, all about ho'w he is a second cousin of a nephevr of a ste-ivard on a boat sailing to and from South America. He -ivill also make kno'mi to you, that he, by remark­able ingenuity, has been able to smuggle a fe'w genuine Peruvian Panama hats into the United Statfes.

Then the Plot Thickens. He theri shows you the contents

ot the wicker sui tcase, -containing the Peruvian panamas and offers you the "never to be repeated" opporttmity of acquiring a geuiue twenty-five dollar Panama for eleven dollars. He will explain how the Peruvian Indians plait the ha t s under water, and if you make the slip ot offering him $3.95, you will get the hat and—stung.

It his hats were made in Peru, thejj were made m Peru, Indiana, and th6 only Indians in Peru, Indiana,, a m the improved Red Men and F r e d d j Snook who goes Joy riding with a bottle o[ applejack under tho seat ol Dad's flivver and carr ies matches and everything.

THE COFFEE HOUSE 9 N WEST- IVIAIN STREET, AYER

This.house has been used for the entertainment of the Soldiers dur ing the War, and was closed August 1st.

Previous to that t ime it was a two-tenement house, w i th seven roorris in each tdjjement. This house has been buiit aboirt f ive years, and is equipped with all the modern improvements—Cellar 'Cemented; Hot Water and Steam Heat; Bath Rooms and Toilet.

This house is located on the main road to Camp, and is part icular ly well equipped for a boarding house, and, as Carnp Devens is to be a permanent Camp, anyone look­ing for an opportunity to go into a business of th is kind wi l l do well to look this proposition over.

Lot about 120 feet by 120 feet, all set wi th shrubbery, and in fact is in a very attract ive condition.

The parties who have furnished the money for -the great work are well aware tha t they wil l have to take a loss, and are satisfied to do so. Do not be afraid to look this place over.and if i t interests you, get our price'.

We are anxious to make a quick sale, and wi l l give someone a bargain. For particulars inquire of

Reverend Edward Cummings of the South •'Congregulional Churcb, Bos­ton, s a y s : -

"If I 'were 'writing a. le t ter a t the p r e s e n t ' t ime giving, my views, I shotildVslmply restate the a rguments given in the following resolution, adopted by the Mas.sachusetts Joint Commit tee of a League of Free Na­t ions, leaving oft the "whereas" and the 'therefore'. '"

• RESOLUTION. •WHE21E5AS, wo believe tha t the

Uni ted S ta tes should now enter the League of Nations In order to pro­mote internat ional co-operation and to achelve International peace and secur i ty ; and

WHERJEASr the Peace Conference a t Pa r i s , a t i ts first session, recog­nized tbe necessity of making tbe l e a g u e of. Nations the basis ot the t r ea ty of peace, and has shaped the whole t rea ty on the assumption that th is l ieague of Nat ions 'wUl be formed; and

WHKREAS, the flrst d ra f t of the Covenant of the League of Nations i ras submit ted for ivorld-'wide dis­cussion and, in the l ight of siicb discussion, bas been largely mended to mee t suggestions made by Amer­ican statesmeu;^ and

WHBRHAS, ample provision Is made In- t h e present Covenant for such future amendments a s prove des i rable ; and " ' " ." -

WHHRilASy a nation - i rh lch fails to secure Batlsfactory conditions Is a t l iberty a t any t ime to give two years ' notice of wi thdrawal ; and

WHEREAS, the perfected Coveiiant has already Become an essen t ia l pa r t of the peace treaty, with. Germany, and cannot be fiirther amended a t this time, withotit jeopardizing the whole peace t reaty , and invit ing the spread of in ternat ional .anarchy, - -.

NOW, 'THBRBFORl;;, -we eme.it ly urge tha t the United S ta tes Senate , wi thout unreasonable delay, ratify the t rea ty qf peace -when, i t shal l be submit ted for ratittcatlon, and thereby secure the maintenance of 'world peace, which is the g rea t end for which we foush t - tbe -war, and with­out the a t ta inment of.-which all our sacrifices of blood and t r e a s u r e -will have been In vain.

Adopted by tb£ Massachuse t t s Joint Commit tee for i 'XiCague of F r e e Na-Nat ions .

H a y , 1919.

The Independent May 24th says:—^

in t h e issue of

REPUBLICAN CONTRIBUTION TO T H E COVENANT,

If only the Republicans had the -wit to seryiB thei r party and the 'world by coming out in favor o t t h e Covenant as now amended, it wonld be good po­litical s t ra tegy. • Then Instead of a fight .which-would do nobody- any good, we should have both par t ies compet ing for the credit and honor of hav ing originated, i)opularized, amended and ratified the League of N a t i o n s , .

I t Is -well for the, RepuWtcans to r emember t h a t ' M e s s r s . Taft , Lodge, Hughes and Root, easily tbe i r most inflne.ntlal and competent men , have all m a d e soggestions for t h e improve­m e n t of the Covenant and t h a t these have been substantially- a d o p t e d in the revised draft by P re s iden t ' m i -aon and the Peace Conference.

All four urged tha t ( l ) . t h e Monroe Doctrine be specificially recognized, (2) domestic questions "be reserved from the jurisdiction of t h e League, and (3) secession be pe rmi t t ed .

Messrs . Taft , Lodge, and Hughes suggested that (1) the language of the Covenant be revised, and (2) the Council should act by unanimous vote.

Mr. Root proposed tha t (1) justici­able questions be referred to arbitra­tion, (2) they be defined, (3) provi­sion be made for a general conference to formulate internat ional la'w, (4) any nat ion may be relieved of its obligation to guarantee independence ot Lieague members aftor flve years , (5) the l e a g u e shall have full powers to inspect a rmaments , and (6) the Covenant shall be revised a t the end of flve or ten years .

Mr. Hughes advised tha t (1) no na­tion shall be a mandatory -without its consent, and (2) the provision for the guarantee of the independence of the League members a s agains t ex­ternal aggression he ent i rely stridden out.

A comparison of the ten ta t ive draft of February 14 -with t h e revised draft of April 2S shows tha t the Conference has adopted in toto t h e th ree sugges­t ions in which the four dist inguished Republicans concur a s 'well a s the two recommendations In 'which Messrs. Taft, Lodge and Hlighea uni te . In addition they have completely incor­porated Mr. Root's second and Mr. Hughes ' first point, 'whereas Mr. Root's flrst, third and s U t h potnU a re substantially recogjaized In the orig­inal draft. They have tailed to adopt only Mr. Root's fpnrth and flfth poinls and Mr. Hughes ' second.

In other -words. In the flve cardinal instances whqre more t h a n one of these eminent, consti tut ional la-wyers have united on any partloulai ' point their recommendations •were adopted, 'Whereas in the less impor tan t cases where only one man made t h e sugges­tion, ttvo were adopted, t h ree 'were already partially recognized and but throe wore rejected.

It is perfectly cleaf) therefore, tha t as .111 of .Mr. Tatt 's and Mr. LiOdge's five .suggoations have been accepted, and as .Mr. Hughes got six out of his seven points and Mr. Root four out of his nino. with three partially recognized, the Ropublio.an party need not worry about it.s prestige In the peace nego­tiations in the coming President ia l elpotion. In fact It -would riot be strotchinK a point too far for the Re­publicans to •welcome the new draft as a Itopublican victory. If thoy do not olaim it Is a victory they 'Will, have to aoropt it eventually a s a de­feat, for as President Wilson h a s -well said; ' .No party has a right t o appro : priato this issue and no pa r t y -will In the long run dare oppose It."

WHTTBt J t tCE TREATY SHQOLD^BE RATIHED

. By Gleor9«. Nasmyth

T h e Covenant of the League of NaUons Is a n ;Integral .part of tbe Trea ty of -Peace-and the .Treaty can­not lie ratified without the Covenant. This ts no t due. to t h e personal -wish­es ot P res ldeh t Wilson or any of the o ther s t a t e s m e n I n t h e ' P e a c e Confer­ence," bu t Is Inharont In - the facts of the in ternat ional s i tuation;

At the outse t ' the_ delegates -were confronted -with t h» question of what kind d t a T r e a t y ot Peace should be made. Bl ther i t ;wou ld be- a "Treaty based o a - t h e old order In Europe, with the Balance p t Power and the chaos o t in te rna t iona l anarchy, a rma­ment competlUona and mil i tar ism^ OI it would be based o a _ a ' League of 'Nations, w i th t h e policy ot Interna­tional co-operat ion, ' - l i m i t a t i o n ' ot a rmaments and t h e development o t a n organized world. . ,

Before a n y ot the ! thousand prob­lems which confronted the P e a c e Conference could .be solved; th is fun­damental quest ion . had ' to. be ans-. wered. It was answered .by making the League of Nat ions Section 1 ot the Peace Trea ty . A)l o ther qoes-tlons were thefi se t t led accordingly, including such ' Int r icate prohlems a s the left bank of t h e Rhine, tbe Inter­nationalization ot the por t of Dant-zlg. Flume, and t h e future b t a score of new na t lpns wHlch; have been created. . f. •

It the l ieague of Nat ions covenant were separated from the Peace Trea^ ty the whole T r e a t y would ha've to

-be made over a n d ' t h e es tabl ishment oi the normal processes of peace would be Indefinitely. postpon.ed. Moreover, any. amendmen t concerning any ,'vital f ea tu res would have t h e same effect, -for t h e T r e a t y o t Peace Is a contract be tween nat ions , and one irarty to . the cont rac t cannot .modify Its t e rms wl thou t i t he consent of a i r the o t h e r ' p a r t i e s to t h i s ' c o n ­t r a c t '

• Thosd 'Who do not l ike cer ta in de -tsills-of the' T r e a t y o t Peace, because they consider t h e m too drast ic , a re

' therefore In the same position as those who object to cer ta in features •ot the League • o t Nat ions covenant. EUther th is t rea ty ot peace? wi th the covenant, h a s to .be accepted essen­tially as It s tands , or the who le , i n ­ternat ional s i tuat ion will be plunged Into cliaosi wi th ominous posslblU-t l e i for the tu ture of clvlllzatlpn.

If, however, t h e Peace Trea ty ' is ratified wi thout any .amendments which will compel I t s resubmission to all the o ther na t ions a t the presen t t ime, then tbe Internat ional machinery of the League of Nat ions can b e se t up and m e a n s will be provided by which revisions In t h e Peace Trea ty and In the convenant of the League ot Nat ions Itself, can be made. This can be done In accordance 'with t h e provisions ot ArUcle XIX, which reads as , fo l lows:

"The Assembly may from t ime to t ime advise the reconsidera­tion by member s of the league.of t rea t ies which h a v e - b e c o m e In­applicable, and t h e considerat ion of In ternat ional conditions .whose continuance might endanger the peace ot the world."

In ratifying the Peace Treaty , then, even though i t conta ins outs tanding injustices such a s the hand ing ' over ot the Chinese Shan tung peninsula to Japan , the German S a a r valley to Prance , and compelling the Germans to pay all t h e 'pensions ot the Allied armies for a genera t ion or a ha l t cen­tury to come, i t s h p u l d . b e borne In mind tha t the na t ions const i tut ing the League have the power to revise these t e rms a t any t ime in the fu­ture , and t h a t t h e tJnlted S ta tes would not be commit ted even " to preserve as agains t external aggres ­sion the terr i tor ia l Integrity and existing political Independence ot all members of, the league.'-' (Article X) for more than two years , because nn ­der the t e rms of the Trea ty it could withdraw from the League upon giving two years ' not ice In accordance wi th the provisions ot Article I.

The pract ical choice wiih which we are confronted then Is e i ther to plunge the world Into a wel te r of anarchy and chaos, with disast rous resul ts for the future ot American society as well a s tor the civlHza-tloh of the world, or the ratification of the T r e a t y including the Covenant of the League ot Nations, wi thout amendments which will compel Its resubmission to t h e o ther na t ions , and without undue delay.

•^n-AsMrican, on-ChxlstianUke and a blot upon tbe inteliixence and upon oor gratitude for. what the orsaiid» tlon.has dose," Is the way In which Ifr.-Albee stlgniaUzea criticism of the T. H. C A. In a letter addressed by him to Al O. Knebel, associate general' secretary of the *'Y'* '^ar Work Conn-cU. ' . '^ • ' _ .

He bases the .statements in hla let­ter upon Isformationlobtalned by him­self and the employes of- his theaters thipu'ghoat -the country In oon versa ties with thousands' of soldiers. Kr. 'Albee declares that, he personally Icnowsrof the high esteem In:whldi the theatrical priitessloB holds the T. U.. c l A. and an kindred IsstltotloaE

-that have done so mnch'fromi the be­ginning of.the war in the forelga oonstrlea.

He speaks also of the- aadstaiiios that aetae» aad .artist* . hsre so t i e ^ rendered.-and'aze'siau renderinjE,'-to the AnoelatieB, saylnt: rhie Thestri-esl people, as a whcSe, - hare done splendid'wOTfc,\^esp«dany the artists,' from• the-bngtmilTig: bt:the 'war, aiid axe stiil' doing it, 'Mac teOTO in esi-:iertaining: the abidlers la. the hbspit-als, at the ctotohsidita, betieflts of all kinds Cglven'fbr the relief and aid so^ detles for oor-homeboaiing trpops.". ';'"The Tp^g Men's .Christian Asso-datlon's de'ir^bn, otergy and self-

.sacrlflce," Hr. .Albee continues," h u been sb'gloHolis and ot: sucii .magnl-tnde that bne'^annot. believe that any­one would consciously criticise its great work, or refer to it any way ex­cepting in the mmt laildatory terms. - ' I have read some wonderful lettert

from artists abroad connected 'with the TouiLg Men's Christian ASsn. who have been entertaining soldiers, who deny that'there is any condition, exist­ing in the workings of that organiza­tion 'which is not.ot the most liberal and fanmanltarian kind.

"Praise has been given to the workers of the Y. M. C.-.A. -without stint, and to blame this great organi­sation for the short-comings of a few, would be un-American, nn-Christllke and a blot npon the Intelligence and upon our gratitude tor what the br-ganlzatloQ has done. I ha've talked with hundreds of soldiers, i might say; through my employes, we have talked With thonsands of tbem, who visit but theaters* each week, especially the wounded, to whom we give an enter­tainment one morning of each week, and we have not, up to. the present JUme;,.)!j;ard one.adverse criticism. On the contrary, there has been nothing but tfnstlnted praise for the seQ-sac-rlfice and the heroic deeds pertormeo as stretcher bearers and other dangei^ ous 'volunteer -woA by those who went abroad in the service of the Toung Men's Christian Association."
