L«aTiDg out the many well-inten- tioned and loyal people who hare come to do real good practical work over here, it seems to us that a good many of our fellow-countrymen â€" some in skirts, and some eyen In khaki â€" "just came for the ride," â- ays a writer with our Expeditionary Force. What they are doing oyer here Is beyond us. They speak vaguely of "uplift," of "investifatlon," or "co- ordinating branches," and some eren more braienly speak of "getting at- mosphere"; nothing more. Some â€" we will let the reader guess the gen- der â€" are as naive as to exclaim: "Why, didn't you know that France is all the rage this year? Everybody is coming over!" If that "everybody" referred to the army, all would be well; but we rather imagine that the young lady â€" ^you guessed it â€" who employed the word has reference to "everybody worth while," or "everybody in our set." Now, while "everybody worth while" or "everybody In our set" have their uses â€" when in khaki, tot- ing a gun or an automatic, or (in case of the ladies) working in the hospitals or canteensâ€" we don't see how they can be so very useful if they approach the war In that spirit. People who come over to Franco without definite, concrete, telling work planned out ahead of them, people who merely drift over hero because "it's the thing to do," are really hindering the cause more than they are helping it. We are cheerfully foregoing a lot of expected parcels from home be- cause we are told that they take up too much ."^pace in ships destined to bring men, steel, beef, and other rock-bottonr essentials of war over to us. It doesn't add to our cheer- fulness to see our forfeited ship space 'taken up by a lot of folk who "just came for the ride."

While our soldiers have need of the comforts â€" spiritual as well as bodily â€" DON'T shut the doors in the boys' faces â€" Keep them smiling 1 The Salvation Army appeals for a Million Dollars for the boys who won the victory. This is the first time the Salva- tion Army has made a general appeal for its work. We urge you now, for the sake of the soldiers, and as a VITAL factor in the solution of Canada's Reconstruction problems, with the Homecoming of her boys, to give and to give liberally! Our men in Khaki may not all be home for another year. While there is a company of Canadians in uniform over there or over HERE, there is work for the Salvation Army Lassie. The weary waiting and the relaxed discipline spell dangers that MUST be guarded against. A happy smile and a com- fortable body help to keep trouble at a distance. Do not let the Hostels shut for lack of funds! The Salvation Army Million Dollar Fund January 19th to 2Sth "First to Serveâ€" Last to Appeal" A WORD ABOUT THE HOSTELS!â€" Have you ever been inside a Salvation Army Hostel? If not, ask a returned man about the Hostels in Paris, London, Toronto, Hamilton, or any others that he has stayed in o\er HERE. Let HIM tell you about the REAL beds, the home cooking, the fried eggs, and hot coffee â€" and hot baths. If he knows you very well, he may give you a hint about the spiritual comfort the Salvation Army Lassies give these men far from home and all it means!
