"CAIRO BRADLEY" TOUR.
"The Sdldiers' Friend." On account ; of the magnificent services rendered to the troops during the Egyptian campaign, "Cairo Bradley" has been aptly described by many returned njen as the "soldiers' friend." While the great training camps -were quartered m the vicinity of Cairo, Mr. and Mrs. Bradley kept an open home for the men, and large numbers made it a rendezvous to escape from the corruptions of the grecit city. Mr. Bradley received special recognition and thanks for his services m Egypt be■fore.and during the war from the highest military authorities, including Lord Kitchener and General Allenby. He is an attractive speaker, with a magnetic personality. His racy descriptions of various experiences with men have made him very popular. One soldier said: "He hits hard but it's true" He has a special facility m talking to men and intimately knows Cairo, Alexandria and all then- varied life. His lantern lecture "Palestine and the Land of the Pharoa-hn" attracts great crowds everywhere. H» s tallc °P "The Tragedy of Lust and the Triumph over it" is as fine a bit of manly straight-hitting, inspiring-speaking as any man can listen to. He was the only civilian with our troops when General AJlenby made his victorious entry into, Jerusalem, and is a personal friend of that fine soldier.
