In the Open Attend
Vesper Services
Sunday evening at 8 o’clock the
Band of the First Group of Machine
Gunners marched from their quarters
to the Boxing Platform outside of “Y"
Building 232, playing a lively "air.’
More than a thousand soldiers were
soon gathered around the platform
listening to the fine music discoursed
by the band.
The occasion was an open-air ves
per service conducted by the Bev. Da
vid Lee Jamison, Acting Chapin! t of
the First Group Machine Gunners.
Chaplains Jenkins, of the Third Group,
and Beck, of the Fifth Group, were on
the platform and assisted Dr. Jamison
in the service.
The singing of "America.’’ “Onward,
Christian Soldiers”. "Old Hundreth”,
and "Nearer. My God to Thee”, bv a
thousand deep-cheste< men, led by a
“brass band,’’ was worth a trip to
Camp Hancock to hear. Dr. Jamison
spoke of the wondeful way all na

fused into one: “We are all Ameri

LIBERTY —both civil and religious.
Every man was created in the image of
God and has the inherent right to de

in this war to secure for the peoples

which we in the United States enjoy.

God’s sac in life or death—
and say: "I have done my best.”
“Take Jesus, the Nazarene. as your

A TWILIGHTSERViCE
The boys who are in quarantine near
”Y“ 75 had an honest-to-goodness
treat last Sunday. Dr. Alfred C. God
dard, the religious director conducted a
twilight service. How the boys did
sing and how they did listen when the
doctor spoke. It was one of those per
fect evenings that come now and then
—the twilight, the slow shifting
clouds, and the pleasant breeze, and
the sincerity of the speaker made it
an evening that will not be forgotten
soon.
How good it is to get together, and
we hope to look forward t many more
such “perfect days”
