Excerpt from Service With Fighting Men: An Account of the Work of the American Young Men's Christian Associations in the World War Notwithstanding the extended, varied, and rich experience of the Association Movement before the War, its efforts, like those of all other organizations, and, in fact, like virtually all departments of all governments engaged in the con ict, were attended with shortcomings and mistakes.
