We are very anxious to make ourselves a proficient organi sation as soon as It Is possible to do so, so thnt we can get into the big game across the water. None of us in Buttery D enlisted for the pleasure of lying around a camp, but with the sole intention of getting into the game, but if men have had the amount of training that we have now had. it Is much easier to convince them that they need more training than it Is to convince raw recruits that they need any training at all. oGing up as we are going to do. gulnst one of the most efficient imies of the world. It would be a suicidal on our part to do so until we are thoroughly efficient, but I am in hopes thnt a degree of efficiency- can be accomplished In time for the early spring fighting and that when the boom of the big guns start In ALLIANCE MEN ARE ASKED TO HELP 'lutirmitn of National Committee on War 'amp Recreation Fund Write Ixxal Men At the suggestion of President Wilson the directors of the Alliance Community Club have been called on to get their organisation behind the campaign to raise a national fund for War Camp Community Recrea tion work. The purpose of this is to inspire men, increase the efficiency and help develop the lighting spirit in the American armed forces. Fea tures of this big work include the providing of wholesome, healthy en vironment in mi communities sur rounding the ninety or more training camps and posts. John N W illys, of Toledo, auto mobile and arcroplane manufacturer, appointed joitly by Secretary of War Raker and Secretary of the Navy are properly entered.

TOO GOOD FOR PACIFISTS, SAYS DAY Hot Water Each Morning I Puts Roses in Your CheeksJ fje0isc83O8 To look one's best and feet one's best is to enjov an inaide batb each morning to flush from the system the previous day's waste, sour fermentations and poi sonous toxins before it is absorbed into tbe blood. JuBt as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of in combustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in tbe alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the bkod through tbe very duct which are intended to suck in only nourishment to sustain the body. If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see your skin S clearer and clearer, you are told to nk every morning upon arising, a clacs of hot water with a teaapoonfu) ef limestone phosphate in it, which is a barm less means of washing the waU saatertal and toxins from the stomtch Bver, kidneys and bowels, thus ehwns tag, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract, liefon putting more food into the stomaon. Girls and women with a)Uw kins, liver spots, pimples or pallid complex ion, also those who wake up with omted tongue, bail Ubdc, ikihU breath, others who are bothered with besdacbes, liiliotm spells, acid stomsch or constipa tion should begin thin phosphsted not water drinking and arc amured of very pronounced results in one or two week. A quarter pound of liniewtone phos phate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate that just 1 l . . , , m us Houp ana not wt cieanum, purine and freshen the elcin on the outaide, so hot water and Hmestone plmsphsle act on tbe inside organs. We must always eonaidcr that internal sanitation is vast ly more important than outside cleanli ness, because the skin porni do not ab sorb Impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do. S) Women who desire t tmhance tbe beauty of their oomplexioa should just try this for a week and notice results. Daniels as chairman of the national committee on the War Camp Com munity Recreation Fund, has written a letter to each of the following Al liance men, asking their assistance in this important war work: Karl D Mallery. Ben J. Sallows, W. D. Fish er, Fred W. Harris, John W. Guth rie. W R. Haras. L. H. HiKhland C. B. Newberry, J. S. Rheln and S. W. Thompson. The public, it is pointed out, must be made to realize that they must iielr. to win the war. The "first vie tories" will be won in America, and will depend on the way in which those who stay at home receive, wel come and hearten the men who are ready to bleed and die that democ racy" may live. The work for the iOldiers and sailors in the communi ties outside the camps should not be confused with what is being done for i heir entertainment and recreation by the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Columbus, the Y. M. H. A. and in other ways during their leisure hours in camp, Mr Willys summarises the big pur pose of the War Camp Community Recreation Fund when he saya: "The spirit of the new American : inny ia to he made in the next few ! months. Mere numbers do not make I KB army: millions of soldiers who .lack tin tluhting spirit can retreat 'without a struggle. The American boys must know that the finest Ideals I of civilization are in their hands, that I the folks at home are living and j lighting in their hearts. "Three Hollars for Each Soldier and Sailor" is the amount required to carry on the work for the next year. ' This money will be used In a hun Idred ways, such as building and maintaining clubs for the men, ar iintlng dramatic, moving-picture, musical and numerous other forms or entertainment In auditoriums. . lubs, schools, churches and private homes: in short, to see to It that the community around the camp Is as "near like home" to the men as possible.
