Book Description
Excerpt from The Romance of the Red Triangle: The Story of the Coming of the Red Triangle and the Service Rendered by the Y. M. C. A to the Sailors and and Soldiers of the British Empire The final proofs of the American edition of this book were corrected during the concluding days of the writer's first visit to North America. During that all too brief visit he had many opportunities of seeing for himself the great work the Association is doing in the United States and Canada; of getting to know and love many of the men who are administrating that work, and of observing the tremendous hold the Y. M. C. A. has on the community. It was an inspiration to visit some of the great Association buildings of America and to note the efficiency of the work, also to go to a number of the great Military camps and see something of the effective service the Y. M. C. A. is rendering to the men of the Army and Navy. Whilst expressing gratitude for the warmth of the welcome he received everywhere, he is particularly grateful for the hospitality accorded by the Y. M. C. A.'s of North America to Sailors and Soldiers of Britain when they have visited the United States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
His Majesty congratulates the Association on the successful results of its war work, which has done everything conducive to the comfort and well-being of the armies, supplying the special and peculiar needs of men drawn from countries so different and distant. It has worked in a practical, economical and unostentatious manner, with consummate knowledge of those with whom it has to deal. At the same time the Association, by its spirit of discipline, has earned the respect and approbation of the military authorities.—His Majesty the King.It was in the summer of 1901, in the old volunteer days, that the Y.M.C.A. for the first time had its recreation tents at Conway in North Wales. The Lancashire Fusiliers were in camp, and the men had thronged the marquee all day, turning up in great force for the service that Sunday evening. It seemed as if they would never tire of singing the old familiar hymns, and when the time came for the address the attention of every man was riveted from start to finish. At length the tent cleared, and the men retired for the night. Now and then the chorus of a hymn could be heard coming from a bell tent, but soon the 'Last Post' sounded, and a few minutes later the plaintive notes of the bugle gave the signal for 'Lights Out.' Thereupon two of the Y.M.C.A. leaders, leaving the camp behind, walked up and down the sands of Morfa. It was a perfect night; not a sound was to be heard except the gentle ripple of the waves, three or four hundred yards away. The moon was near the full; everything seemed almost as light as day, and the bold outline of the Conway Mountain stood in clear relief against the sky. 'I wonder what all this means,' said one of the two, referring to the impressive service of the evening and to the crowds that had thronged the tents all day. 'I have been wondering,' said he, 'if there is a great European war looming in the distance, and if God is preparing the Y.M.C.A. for some great work it is destined to perform then.' How often have those words come back since the beginning of the war! God was indeed preparing the Association for a work infinitely bigger than any of its leaders knew or even dared to hope. In those days H.R.H. the Duke of Connaught became Patron of our Military Camp Department, and he has ever since been a warm friend.
