BIG INTERNATIONAL WAR WORK
OF Y. M. C. A. TOLD BY MR. EDDY
BRYN MAWR, PA.. NOVEMBER 28, 1917
Need of Money and Trained Women
to Carry on Work at the Front
What the Y. M. C. A. huts, fronted with
their red triangles, mean to the men of
the Allied armies, and to those in the
Allied and enemy prison camps, was viv-
idly told by Mr. Sherwood Eddy, the
noted Y. M. C. A. preacher, at a meeting
In Taylor Monday afternoon. Mr. Eddy
has Just returned from a tour of the
Western battle front, and is already on
his way to Russia.
The speaker described the Student
Friendship Fund, which is being raised
by American students to benefit men in
the Allied armies and the European
prison camps through the Y. M. 'C. A. and
to aid the Hostess Houses of the training
camps at home and abroad through the
Y. W. C. A.
Trained women, well rounded phys-
ically, mentally and morally, are needed
by the Y. M. C. A. abroad, according to
Mr. Eddy.
Over $1,000,000 of this fund has already
been raised, Vassar giving $15,000 and
Wellesley $16,000.
"If I don't win another battle I'll win a
moral one", General Pershing Is quoted
as saying to Mr. Eddy when they were
mapping out the war work of the Y. M.
C. A. together.
