BOY SCOUTS SEE INTERESTING MOVIES Boy Scout Troop 52 held a very interesting meeting Friday night. One of the important parts of the meeting was the showing of war films as courtesy of Scout Robert Archer. Two reels pertaining to the battle in the Pacific was interest- ing. Some of the highlights of the films was the Coral Sea bat- tles, sinking of the Lexington, Pearl Harbor bombing, Congress in war session and U. S. Navy at sea. Thomas Swicegood was given his Tenderfoot badge making him amember of the Boy Scouts of America. Since the United States Marines celebrate their anniver-| sary on Tuesday a special pro- gram was held in their honor. A brief history of the corps and the singing of the Marine Hymn was the main topics on the program. A Emergency Service Corps will be organized in the near future. The work of the corps} will be to serve in case the com-|} munity emergency arises. The} corps will act as Key West's, minute men on the job. Studies of First Aid, Civilian Defense, Knot Tying, Firemanship, Life Saving, and Safety will be in- cluded in the corps training pro- gram. -The meeting closed with the blowing of Taps by the Scout Bugler and the Scoutmaster’s Benediction.

Seen eae RRNA A SOLDIER LETTER HOME Twas a short, sad but sweet let- ter His mother received that day; He said that the war would be over soon, He'd be on his homeward way. He said that he'd fight for his country And God would take care of’him, But little did he know that soon His life would come to an end. Yes, he fought for his country, He fought against strife and sin, But God* led him home to the}; land of peace, Where all of his battles came to an end. i So, do not grieve, dear Mother, Your son will not fight any more, For he has sailed to the other side, Where there's no such thing as oe.

AS. DEW,let i be really wany?And) the intensity of warfare _-would “be something quite different! . War is not a polite: recreation. accept it serenly and solemnly as ta fearful necessity.” Drafted mothers of our na- tion, how many fully realize to- day—as you, yourselves—that war is not a recreation to ease life’s routine, but a “fearful ne- cessity”? How many fully real- ize that to fight with the Sreatest degree _of intensity for jour free-way ‘of life has come sto be ‘fearful neces- ity”? Indubit ably ‘too many of.us, ~. here on .;.the ERAINE TURIN fronts of, home, still disregard ‘the sacrificing re- quired,to win this conflict,. ,The sacrificing of certain conven, iences, of selfish ambitions, or even of personal grievances. Un- less the hazards of war are brought to our own doorsteps, it seems as if we are unable to get the real meaning of sacrificing, which this “fearful necessity” de- mands. A letter from a drafted mother came in today which stresses the same issue. She writes that, even though her son: was in the thick of battle, she had little comprehension of the gravity of the war; that is, until this son was seriously wounded. Then for weeks she and her family suffered such anxiety over his critical condition: that they began to feel no sacrifice could be too great for them to make there- after. And when at last he was sent to a General Hospial in his providential recovery, the father gave up his high-salaried position to take a war job; the pay here was so decreased that the family had to move from their opulent home to smaller and less pretentious quarters. Also the mother made friends with several women acquaintances with whom she had long been on hostile’, terms, and whom she di- rectly inter ed bd war a This) df: shane the her soh’s$ ‘Ie paragraph 2 chee awakened het j td ; the; are of working with these women. The following is the paragraph: “Do you remember how I used to hate that fellow, the bully, who. lived next door? Of all the people in the world, he had to be the one who was wounded and fell right next to me when I got hit. Of course, I didn’t know it at first, because I was unconscious. But when I woke up, I began to understand I'd fast and furiously. I heard the thing awful. to turn my head, I recognized the fellow to be that bully. From what, was being said, I discover- ed that they had cut his Jeg off right, fyere on the. field while: was unconscious. I saw. them holding him up in their arms and offering him water. But he couldn’t drink, because his lips wepe swollen and trembled so. He let out one terrible groan and fell back. Right then a piercing pain hit me in the back again. It was that awful pain which kept up till they finally operated on me, that made me have nothing but the deepest sympathy for the fellow. As he looked my way, I knew he recognized me too. Suddenly a silent bond |seemed to tie us together in our miserable state. And I knew if we ever could get going again, we'd be buddies through. thick and thin.

With home offices already open at Winter Haven and the expecta-| tion of opening headquarters for the West Coast Area soon, the or- ganization purports tg enlist the aid of housewives and other con- sumers, as well as merchants, in assisting the government to rout what the group describes as a “homemade fifth column”. The movement, while cooperat- ing in every way with govern- mental agencies, will be totally independent of any assistance from the government;. self sup- porting on a strictly non-profit, able , basis; financed .through a yoluntary membership plan. r For field. organization and ex- ecutive purposes and for con-} sumer wepresentation in Washing- ton, there will be a paid person- nel. But these expenses will be kept at as low a level as is prac- tical, in compliance with the! spirit and letter of the charter. Through the medium of a five- | purpose market list and a def- inite program of instructions, it is expected that housewives acting concertedly can swiftly bring to a halt the upward swing of prices in foodstuffs, and in some instances, even bring the prices down. It also is believed that housewives will act, once they are acquainted with details of the progarm. The plan further proposes ad-j| herence to recommendations from the government; frowns on hoard- ing, waste and extravagance; ad- vocates friendly helpfulness to merchants but constant watchful- \ness for gouging, upgraded) quality, “chiseling” and, “black markets.” Sponsors of the plan include business and professiénal men and women, housewives of aver- age means, a Catholic priest and} a Protestant Minister.
