By Bruce Barton ( WILL tell you what will happen some night this winter in France. Some night when its cold and dark. There will be a rustling through the front line trench, where our boys stand guard. And a heavy ladened Secretary will make his way along. In hi& hands will be great steaming pots: in his pocket chocolate and cigarettes. From one man to another he will go, passing a cup full of hot coffee to hands that tremble with the cold; bringing the k comfort of a bit of sweet and a smoke. Men will hail him cheerily, slappingJ J him on the back; and when he has goneV things will be a little easier in that trench ’ because he has passed that way. How much will it cost to make that trip, do you suppose? Counting the pittance that the Secretary is paid, and the cost of the chocolate and the cigarettes and all? . Five dollars? Twenty-five dollars? I do not know. But whether it is five dollars or twenty-five. I’d like to think that it is my five or twenty-five—wouldn’t you? That some night when it’s cold and lonesome, my money and your* might send a Secretary out along that front line trench. Lot's make up our minds that we are going to pay for a score of those trips. A score of the nights this winter shall be our nights —nights when the boys greet joyously the chocolate and cigarettes that our money provided; and are happier because our representative has passed.
