With seventy members of its
congregation in the armed for-
ces of the United States, the
North Shore Baptist Church, of
Chicago, 111., has had several hun-
dred of its members sign a
“Covenant Book” in which they
pledge to be more faithful in
their church attendance and thus
take the places left vacant for
the duration. “As our fathers,
brothers and sons have pledged
themselves to defend our prec-
ious liberty until it is assuerd
beyond a question,” the Covenant
states, “I too declare myself
ready and willing to be especial-
ly faithful to my church for the
duration of the war or for that
period of time our men have
given themselves to the service
of their country in the cause of
human freedom and religious
liberty.”

many and elsewhere. These have

ly nothing else to read. The vol-
umes have been in more than a
score of languages: English,
French, Dutch, Norwegian, Sla-
vic, Greek, Roumanian, Russian,

Dr. Edward H. Hume, veteran
medical missionary to China and
now secretary to the Christian
Medical Council for overseas
Work, is urging that Christian
hospitals in America and
throughout the world enlarge the
scope of their ministry by em-
ploying trained staff members
“to inquire as to the economic,
social, mental, and religious back-
ground of each patient, in addi-
tion to discovering the facts of
his physical wellbeing.” In the
search for ways in which “the
ministry of the spirit might aid
in bringing full health to nations,
we have scarcely crossed the
threshold,” Dr. Hume believes.
He adds: “We need continued
study and development of the
contributions that faith and pray-
er and religious practice can
make to the maintenance of
mental and physical health and to
the cure of disease.”

gether with others agencies, and

quately their responsibilities for
providing a vital program of re-
ligious education for every child,
every youth, and every adult.”
An interdenominational commit-
tee, sponsored by the Interna-
tional Council of Religious Ed-
ucation, Chicago, 111., is planning

Fleeing along the Burma Road
ahead of the advancing Japanese
army ,and suffering from mal-

tagious diseases treated 5,250

Mr. and Mrs. Lon Whetstone
were Kerrville shoppers Mon-
day.
Hearing that the United States
Government is planning to settle
in Arkansas about 10,000 Japan-
ees uprooted from the Pacific
coast, some 200 Methodist minis-
ters recently gathered in Conway,
Ark., for the Arkanass Pastor’s
School ,adopted resolutions which
constitute a welcome to these
new-comers. The pastors agreed
to maintain a Christian spirit
“toward these fellow citizens of
our,” to provide them church
buildings if necessary, and to ask
the Board of Missions and Church
Extension to place a Japanese-
speaking missionary among
them. They have also set up a
“Board of Managers,” under the
chairmanship of Bishop C. C.
I will attempt to take my
readers with me on another day’s
journey through the sunshine
state. A view of the country so
vast can not, of course, be pre-
sented in a single picture, it re-
quires a panaroma to do it jus-
tice. We decided to visit Lincoln
National Park, prepare a picnic
dinner there and after dinner
visit some of the lumber camps
and mines with which the place
is dotted. We tamped almost in a
canyon where our road took us
near by a large spring. While
the balance of our crowd wander-
ed around exploring and admir-
ing the beauties of the place, I
placed notebook and pencil on my
cook table and proceeded to take
notes and prepare dinner.
The day was very warm, but
there was no indication of an ap-
proaching storm. I had dinner
fairly under way when my
friends arrived in a breathless
haste. A moment later and an
electric storm in all its fury
broke upon us. Four inches of
rain fell. The lightning was al-
most an incessant blaze, lighting
the wet canyon with a blinding
glare. We concealed our car as
best as we could and took ref-
uge in it. Thunder crashed and
bellowed as every now and then
lightning bolts would splinter a
tree in the forest where we were
camped. Branches of trees were
falling all around us, but fortun-
ately no one of us was hurt.
When the wind struck it lifted
dinner I was preparing to heights
above the canyon and it came
down with a tremendous rebound
and cracked like rifle shots. The
great pine and spruce trees bent
and twisted as they interlocked
their branches above us. They
would lift their tall heads in
stately and solemn grandeur al-
most to the clouds while the wind
in holy alliance played upon
their foliage until the murmers
rose and swelled in moving ca-
dences, thrilling the soul to its
depths, like the notes of some
great organ under the hand of
a master musician. Nature, after
an extended fit of passion, is
quickened into an angel of hope
and charm, clothes tersely into
beauty and goes on dress parade.
The new-washed skies are dotted
with amethyst and the golden
glow of the topaz is seen in the
King of Day as he trails his
robes of burnisheed gold over
land and sea. An odor of pine
filled the air, mingled with the
breath of flowers, and all the
wild birds of forest and field
UNHAPPY WIVES FIND NEW HOPE
BN SPECIAL VITAMIN COMBINATION
Clinical Tests Demonstrate Sterile Women
May Be Aided—Happy Homes Are
Dependent on Babies
Nothing equals a baby to bring com-
plete unity and happiness into the home
and tie husband and wife into a stronger
bond of enduring love and mutual in-
terest.
Many homes break up from lack of
children and contribute to the amazing
American record of one divorce for
every five marriages. Unhappy wives,
childless due to a vitamin-deficient finc-
tional weakness, may now enjoy the de-
sires and activities of Nature’s most
ymnderful creation—a normal, fully-de-
veloped, vigorous woman.
Sensational clinical tests demonstrate
'that, in vitamin-deficient instances, a
neVv vitamin of the B Complex group
has a striking effect on sterility. Twenty-
two women, with known sterility records
for as much as five years were selected
for the test. After weeks of heavy dosage
with Paraaminobenzoic acid (a vitamin
of the B Complex group) more than
half of these women became mothers.
Many of these women had been told
their condition was hopeless. The vita-
min is absolutely harmless and decided-
ly beneficial to general health as well.
Thus it is apparent that highly forti-
fied vitamin combination may be just
the thing needed by the childless wife
and quickly bring the happiness of a
baby into the home.
If you are childless and have even giv-
en up hope, if you wish to eliminate one
of the greatest causes of unhappy mar-
riages, by all means give the Periex
Combination Vitamin System a short
trial in the privacy of your home. To
introduce this new vitamin combination
quickly to a million women, the Periex
Company. 3J4 North Michigan Ave.,
Chicago, Illinois, will send a regular
$2.00 supply for only $1.00 and a few
cents postage. You need send no money
—just your name and address. Periex
comes in a plain wrapper—directions
are quite simple, and no special die! or
exercise is required. f

We next visited Capulin Moun-
tain. It is situated in the center
of a volcanic region whose wes-
tern extremity is about 50 miles
east of the Rocky Mountains and
which extends to a distance of
more than 80 miles. Evidence of
the tremendous volcanic activity
is disclosed today in the Mesas
built up by layers of successive
lava flows of varying thickness,
separated by long periods of
time, and now exposed to the
action of erosion. Great cracks in
the earth through which the
molten rock poured forth are ex-
posed in eroded areas as dikes
of solidified lava. Capulin Moun-
tain is a magnificent example of
a recently extinct volcano. Rising
to an altitude of 8000 feet above
sea level, it stands 1500 feet a-
bove the general level of the sur-
rounding plain. It is a steep-
sided circular cinder cone, having
a well marked crater as its sum-
mit, with a broad platform as its
base, built up by successive flows
of lava.
