interest of recruiting for the
Women's Army Corps.
Any interested, eligible Tart
women may find one of us at

His knowledge of Spanish also
became useful in Italy. He said
there was but little difference be-
tween the Italian and Spanish
tongues, and he was able to carry
on conversation with the citizens, j
whom he described as “welcom-'
ing the American troops with I
open arms." Despite reports to J
the contrary, Flores asserted the •
shopkeepers over there did not
charge high prices i,m articles
they had for Rule, which were
not very many as the Germans
| had looted the stores before
| leaving.
Goods that, the Italians had
managed to hide from the looting
Nazi troops, however, were sold
very cheaply by the happy shop-
keepers, Flores also found many
of the townspeople who could
speak English.

Taft Churches To
Open For Special
D-l)ay Prayers
Speck! Time Set Aside
For Prayer On Evening
After Invasion of Europe
Churches of Taft will be
open for special prayer services
an Invasion day. Such a decis-
ion was reached early thl*
week after it. wa* suggested by
various citizens of the commun-
ity. Whereas many people are
looking to God daily in their
homes and as they meet to-
gether in the church, it is felt
that a special time for prayer
should be set aside the day the
invasion of Europe starts.
At S o’clock on the evening
after the Invasion starts, citi-
zens who so desire are urged
to go to the church of their'
choice and there come hum-
bly before God Almighty to
seek hi* forgiveness, to implore
a speedy and victorlou* end to
this war and to pray for God's
leadership in making u* the
sort of people worthy of vic-
tory and peace. Special peti-
tiens will no doubt be made
for our men engaged in thi*
battle.
