This leads to the exciting se- quences where, having established | himself as a feature on the Berlin| radio, he sends coded messages through the air to the British In- telligence, the while he is hurling| words of abuse at his own country. ———.— USOFOR | “THE USA { PROGRAM THURSDAY, April 6, 9:00 p.m. Regular Thursday night dance in USO.

EASTER SUNDAY, 1944 As this war of savage butchery {of millions of people and the literal laying waste of whole cities enters upon the season that presumably will involve slaughter and chaos beyond anything yet seen, Easter Sunday looms significant as never before within the experience of men now living. Can any'person professing what- ever religious faith or claiming to profess to none, face the coming of this Easter except in a spirit of ut- ter humility and with either a pro- found faith in its full significance or at least a frankly avowed hope in the truth of the eternal triumph of Life over Death? This is not the place to preach on the subject. But we simply cannot bring this column to a close with- out reminding all servicemen read- | ' ing it that this coming Sunday is Easter, and that all the churches of Juneau will have their doors open |wide that day in cordial welcome. We remind them also that at 9:30 |that night Easter will be observed in the USO at a service which is to be led by Capt. T. J. Dyck of the Salvation Army and which they are invited to attend. . — NOTICE After April 10, no telephone rentals for the month of April will be accepted at a discount.
