He was a very strong, ‘]lugged man. He had eyes that look- |ed deep into yours and then on through. His skin was permanently tanned and he had the hands of a man who had lived outdoors all his llife. To his acquaintances in the {East he looked just like they thought a western cowboy should look. And this was not surprising because he had been a cowboy. An exceptional sort of cowboy, how- ever, he had come to the East to study law. He had earned degrees both in law and philosophy. Still he remained unsatisfied; he found that the one thing, after all, that really mattered was his entering the ministry. And so, at the time of this discussion, he was about to finish his course in the Yale School of Theology. (He seemed to his fellows then to be an outstandingly fine person. They have had no reason during the intervening years to change their high opinion. To- day in Connecticut he is a nation- ally known clergyman.) At the moment the group was wondering whether you might sum up in a single sentence a statement of the whole of man's destiny on earth. Several of the students made | choices from among remembered quotations. The discussion was nearly over. Finally the last of the fellows recalled a summary of man's destiny that had stood the test of many centuries. It was the Prophet Micah who had said that it was the Lord’s requirement of man simply “to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God.” The room grew quiet, and the sil- ence that followed seemed to give assent. Justice, mercy, humility— wasn't that summary just as com- plete, as nearly perfect, as you could hope for? Was there anything more to be said? As a matter of fact the discussion had seemed ended. when without a word the former cowboy moved across the room and stood in front of the fellow who had last spoken. He seized his hand in that powerful grip of his and held if there for some seconds. “That’s good,” he said, “but it lacks something important.” Nobody spoke. The statement appeared to be a challenge, to call for an an- swer; but none of the fellows knew the answer. Then as the hand still retained its powerful grip and the eyes kept their hold with no less of a strength of their own, the an- swer came. His voice spoke firmly, very simply: *Yes, what it lacks is |terribly important. It lacks THE {WARMTH OF HUMAN FRIEND- |SHIP.” | The years have rolled along since [|that night. Much has been learned (and as much, perhaps (or more) Ihas been forgotten by the men of that little group at college. But one {of those fellows (he happens at present to be the Director of the Juneau USO) still vividly remem- bers the grip of that hand and he can almost see the look in those keys and money. Phone 805. Lm' eyes. And he is quite certain that, inevitable and that they'd go ahead without much concern. But to make any such| high pride of Bob and Dick in this! being built up, and to ignore also| their love and respect for good music and their desire to have it| played really well or not at all. The | fact is that again and again they have been on the verge of disband- | ing in their concern over the music; and in view of the confidence of the other players in them their decision to that effect would have| involved the entire orchestra. One thing, and only one thing, has prompted them to keep on—their| deep loyalty to the USO and the girls and their many fellow-service- men who were counting on them. Because of the strength of thal loyalty it never once has’ been| necessary to cancel a dance; and a' vast amount of pleasure has been‘ given continuously to countless people. From “behind the scenes”| personally we've observed close at! hand most of the stress and strain to which Bob and Dick have been subjected.” We've kept our fingers crossed more than once; but every single time the curtain has risen on‘ schedule and the show has gone on.l This is an appropriate time to| say once again to a pair of fine musicians, able members of the| Army Signal Corps, and good men: | “We previously have said thanks gratefully for the music. Now, Bob | and Dick, thanks for your friend-| ship!” SUNDAY AT BUCK CREEK Unless you actually read it in| print, of course you'd be sure it ! wasn't so, Never before has this! column urged members of the GSO | to stay away from the clubhouse.! BUT seeing is believing, it's said. Here we are saying to you: Girls, don’t spend late Sunday afternoon or evening at the USO. If you do,! you will miss a. treat. ! The treat will be awaiting the girls at Duck Creek in the form of a party being given by the service- men of that post of all GSO mem- bers and the other young ladies of Juneau and Douglas. It will con- sist, we understand, of an open house in the afternoon (featured by some variety numbers, ‘oppor- tunities to play ping pong and pool, trips to the glacier,’ inspection of the camp, etc.) followed by supper and an evening of dancing and other entertainment. The invita- tions are said to be in the mail now. They give all the details, including the several times of the departure of GI transportation from the USO. It sounds as though it would add up to a FIRST-RATE PARTY. We know for sure that the men of the Post have been putting a lot of time and energy into getting it up.. So you can hardly wonder at our tell- ing. the girls not to miss it. | THE WEEK IN REVIEW Out of all that happens during the course of a busy USO week it is no easy task to select a mere half-dozen or s0 of items for this column.
