A movement known as "the Holy Name," was started among the troops at the front some months ago. Its members pledge themselves to refrain from and to oppose all blasphemous and obscene language. The movement has the support of General Currie and of the Generals commanding the divisions, all of whom had encouraged the propagation of the society's principles throughout the corps. It was equally welcomed by commanders of battalions and other units, and already some improvement have been effected.
Note: General Currie was noted for being able to swear profoundly for 5 minutes without repeating a word
