"What the church needs now Is a playtime sche-lule uk well as the hour for spiritual development. It is the physical makeup of the human, to demand a certaii. amount of play and of pleasure.

An intimate glimpse of the deathrtrewn battlefield of Europe, with personal Incidents from the experiences of the lecturer, was given last night at the Gleaner hall. Center township, by Frank W. llolslag, a free-lancer, but traveling with the armies at the front lor over a year. Mr. Holslag described himself as "a wanderer, a free lance unofficial Red Cross tramp." His vivid descriptions of the storming of the bridtre of Tamlnea, the terrible flgnt of a French bloodhound, the mechanism and the havoc of the huge German guns, and numerous othr tales of bravery, love, carnage and -death held the attention of the audience throughout. Some interesting things were told of the German forty-centimeter gun. "To picture one," said Mr. llolslag, "you must imagine the stockholo of a great ocean going vessel, a huge stack pointed almost straight upward with sections of iron stalr and platforms extending upward on both sides. It requires 16 specially built massive auto trucks to transport one of these guns, and a crew of 100 hundred men is required to operate one. I have seen a crater made by one of the shells the.se guns eject, into which you could throw two common dwelling houjes. It costs J 6,000 for each shot and after six shots the gun must be taken to a gun hospital for repairs." Mr. Holslag also described the intricate and clever spy system of the Germans, and the preparations they havo been making for many yearj for war. He related his experiences

as beng suspected, hounded and imprisoned as a spy by every army on the western front, and his thrilllnf; escapes.
