Christian Science Reading Room In church building. This room 1s open Wednesday afternoon from 2:30 to 4 o'clock and after the Wed- nesday evening meeting Golden Text: Isaiah. “Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; | and the government shall be upon his shoulder.” The following selections are taken from the Lesson-Sermon: From the Bible: “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will raise unto David a righteous branch and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and jus- tice in the earth.” (Jeremiah). From Science and Health with; Key to the Scriptures by Mary Bak- er Eddy: Jesus was the highest hu- man concept of the perfect man. He expressed the highest type of divinity, which a fleshly form could express in that age. Into the real and ideal man the fleshly element cannot enter. Thus it is that Christ illustrates the coincidence, or spir- itual agreement, between God and man in His image.

Pastor Midnight Mass | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA WALKER IS KILLED ON WAR FRONT (Continued from Page One) broke down with emotion. Maj. Gen. Frank E. Milourn, who took over as temporary commander after General Walker’s death, told Captain Walker: “Sam, I want you to know that this is still your father’s army.” “This wil be hard on my grand- mother,” Sam Walker said. Young Walker, who had pleased the General by turning down the father’'s offer of a comparatively safe commander’s aide job, is 2 combat officer by choice in the U.S. 24th Division. Alive When Picked Up He wept after viewing the body shrouded in the same kind of rough GI blanket that covers any dead soldier. A medic at the hospital the Gen- eral was taken to said: “He was alive when picked up—he was dead on arrival here” The ambulance trip to the hospital here was two miles. A Sergeant from Brooklyn, identi- fied as E. E. Donlin, who was driv- ing a following escort jeep, said Walker’s driver was doing about 20 miles an hour along the wet but | not icy road. The body was due to arrive in Tokyo by plane at 11 am. Sunday (6 p.m., Saturday, PST) and will be | met there by General MacArthur's highest staff officers.

The invitations were extremely formal and begged the invited to consider that. “. . . for thousands of years it has been so; with us it has not commenced, with us it will not cease. Do not, therefore, disturb the festival; do not bring the good people to despair. Without you there will be no maiden festival at Anna Karpowna's.” In planning these houseparties, hostesses gave particular attention to the selection of partners for the young ladies, The selection was sometimes very satisfactory and DOLLIES ALL . . .
