1 WENT AND SAW
(By the Parson)
The slogan “Don’t say no to the
U. S. O.” should be in every store in
our county to call people’s atten
tion to the most vital part of our
defense program.
The U. S. O. is the United Service
Organization that is composed of
Catholics, Jews, and Protestants,
and will be operated by them.
I received a letter the other day
from one of the soldier boys at Fort
Blanding, in Florida. In this letter
he states that the camp is forty
miles from town, therefore, a very
drab life. This boy is a north
erner. I met him several years ago
when he was in the C. C. C. Camp at
Reidsville, Ga. He is a nice, clean
chap with high ideals and morals,
an Episcopalian. There was not the
church of his choice in our town, but
being eager to care for himself spir
itually, he sought out the Methodist
parsonage. It is needless to say
that fellowship with him was con
genial. He was a regular attendant
at our church and. a constant vis
itor to our parsonage.
There are many miles between his
camp and his home. When he is
off duty there is nothing to enter
tain him except the black, sandy,
and swampy country that composes
the state of Florida. He could visit
some of the girls that have moved
into the country about the camp for
sinful purposes. This is repulsive
tn him and his type of manhood.
He is a lonely young man. He
would like to read. He would enjoy
games. He desires fellowship with
clean, intellectual people.
What are we going to do about it?
The answer is we are going to do
something worthwhile and do it
through the U. S. O. That is the
only business of the U. S. O.
The Y. M. C. A. and other moral
agencies that operated in the camps
during the last war will not be per
mitted to do so during this train ng
period, which of course is war. The
Chaplain will have full authority on
government reservations but when
the soldier is off duty he naturally
wants to leave the camp. Mr.
Roosevelt has agreed to build nice,
convenient, and suitable buildings
adjacent to each camp and lease it
to the U. S. O. He insists that the
citizens should run the U. S. O. and
not the Federal Government.
When you contribute to anyone
soliciting funds for the U. S. 0., just
multiply my friend by more than a
million and visualize these boys
having a decent place to which the
may retire while off duty and have
wholesome games, reading clubs,
religious services, and whatever
else they need under the super
vision of competent workers from

Glamour Girl of Babylon
Used Rouge and Mirror
In ancient Babylon Matrunna and
Amnestris touched up their eye
lashes with black, their lips and
cheeks with rosy pigment, ho'ding
up their mirror to appraise the re
sult, even as Joyce and Sadie and
Muriel today. But the pigments
were contained in little shells, and
the mirror, though shaped exactly
like a lady’s mirror of today, was
not glass, but bronze.
The bloom on Amnestris’ cheek,
whether painted by the goddess Ish
tar or by Amnestris’ own tapering
hand, has faded, and Amnestris’
charms are dust. But the shells
that held her cosmetics, the dainty
earrings of wrought hollow gold that
she wore, and her necklaces of
etched carnelian these weapons
from the arsenal of a Babylonian
lady can be seen in Chicago, in the
new Hall of Babylonian Archeology,
in the basement of the Field Mu
seum of Natural History.
The hall is described by Clifford
C. Gregg, director, as one of the
most ambitious projects in re on- j
structing the life of a long past
epoch ever undertaken by the mu
seum. It represents 18 years of re
search and contains material ex
cavated at the ancient citv of Kish
by the joint Mesopotamian expedi- ■
tion of Field museum and Oxford
university.
Some of the objects go back to
the fourth millenium before Christ,
as the models of saddle-shaped
chariots, or the carving of a ram in
lapis lazuli so small that you need
a magnifying glass to appreciate its
excellence, or the cylinder seals, an
ancient form of reproduction.

It could be your boy, so let’s give
him a chance to continue a decent
way of life in the camps and not
throw him on the lap and into the
arms of licentious men and women
who will take from him his money
and his morals. “DON’T SAY NO

A PRAYER MEETING IN JAIL
(Acts 16:16-40; by Mrs. Earl Miller)
Most of us would not feel like
singing and praising the Lord in
prison, especially if we had been
beat by an angry mob and blood
was running down our backs, but
in the Bible tells a story of two
men by the name of Paul and Silas,
who bad this awful experience.
They had done nothing wrong but
were being persecuted because they
were preaching the old time reli
gion. A damsel possessed with an
evil spirit fololwed these men. She
was what we call these days a for
tune teller. The men who owned
her for a slave were getting rich.
One day Paul cast out this evil
spirit and she could not tell for
tunes after the evil spirit departed.
Ths made her master mad and so
he had Paul and Silas taken before
the rulers. After they were beaten
they were cast in jail, their feet
; were put in stocks. They were not
■ wormed, but began to sing the old
’ time songs ol Zion and praises unto
the Lord. The other prisoners could
: hear' Paul and Silas and could not
I understand why they were so hap
p . At midnight there was a great
earthquake and the jail was shaken,
all the doors were opened and eve
ryone's hands were loosened. The
jailer came rushing in and called
an old time prayer meeting. He
and hs family were saved and bap
tired that night and Paul and Silas
went their way rejoicing.
