' follows:
■ “Bing Crosby doesn’t know it.
i but another “Bing,” a namesake,
j is delivering a lot of happiness at

■ Perpetual Help out on Washing

“The Atlanta ‘Bing’ is a canary
bird, presented by some women
employes of the telephone compa
ny to the patients during the
course of a Christmas party given
by these employes. ’Tis said that
Bing is taking liis responsP'iliUes
seriously—he opens up with his
trilling with the first light of day
and continues without interrup
tion, until evening.
“This column on numerous oc
casions has paid tribute to the no
ble Christian services performed
by the consecrated women in
charge of this cancer home fo 1 " in
curables. Here the victims of this
disease, of whatever creed or col
or, come to spend their last d-vs
on earth, mini (ered to by gentle
and loving hands.
“Here is vital Christianity in
action. Here, Christ’s command io
do unto the ‘least of these" is lit
erally being performed. Here
valiant disciples of the Master are
trying to make real pem lc, who
are holding with feeble tinge ; to
Ibis life, the Wbrds of Jesus when
He said, 'Be of good cheer
“So I imagine that many of I lie
patients ns they listen to the little
canary sing somehow feel he is
singing these words: ‘Be not ("i -
mayed, whate’er betide—God will
take care of you.’
“God is taking care of them
through these blessed disciples.
And He wlil continue to take care
of Ihcm when human hands are
no longer available.”
