Meanwhile Workers regularly stationed at Jefferson Barracks, Missouri; Fort Leavenworth, Kansas; Fort McPherson, Georgia; Fort Sheridan, Illinois, and the shell shock and tuberculosis hospitals near Asheville, North Carolina, were reporting interesting cases of healing, some of which are recorded elsewhere in this volume.

Having given the reader this brief outline of the Camp Welfare work in general, we now proceed to mention in more detail the several lines of activity which characterized the work everywhere. For convenience these have been grouped under different headings. The first, “Daily Deeds,” deals with the most conspicuous details of the daily routine of Camp Welfare Workers. The second, “Quiet Resting Places,” gives an interesting account of the various buildings and rooms operated by the Committee. The third, “Our Only Preachers,” tells of the Christian Science services held throughout the world by the men in khaki and blue. The fourth, “He Sent His Word,” gives some idea of what was accomplished by distribution of Christian Science literature. The fifth, “With the Forces Afloat,” is a brief story of what was done for the boys of the navy.
