Excerpt from Keeping Our Fighters Fit, for War and After The twin Commissions on Training Camp Activities - one for the War Department and one for the Navy Department - were appointed by Secretary Baker and Secretary Daniels early in the war to link together in a compre hensive organization, under official sanction, all the agencies, private and public, which could be utilized to surround our troops with a healthy and cheerful environment. The Federal Gov ernment has pledged its word that as far as care and vigilance can accomplish the result, the men committed to its charge will be re turned to the homes and communities that so generously gave them with no scars except those won in honorable con¿ict. The career to which we are calling our young men in the de feuss of democracy must be made an asset to them, not only in strengthened and more virile bodies as a result of physical training, not only in minds deepened and enriched by participa tion in a great, heroic enterprise, but in the en hanced spiritual values which come from a full life lived well and wholesomely.
