PAUL'S CHURCH Lovers of organ music in Key ‘West heard an extensive program ‘at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church last evening when three accom- plished organists took turns in furnishing entertainment at the! console. The recital was arranged by Mrs. Riba Sawyer, under the} ‘auspices of the Women’s Guild, and judging by the members of those who turned out for the oc- casion,—and by their subsequent enthusiastic comments,—this sort of music should be heard more often in Key West. The Navy was well represented, both on the program and in the} audience. Mrs. E. J. Quinby (wife; of Lieut. Quinby, USNR) played compositions of Bach, Saint- Saens and Guilmant. Stanley Plummer, Sp. 3c, USNR, played compositions of Grieg, Boellman and Bach. Mrs. Helen Hoglin, popular ‘receptionist of the Jack- son Sq. USO, sang “The Lord Is My Shepherd”. There were sev- eral officers and men in’ Navy uniforms throughout the audi- ence. Charles Roberts, regular organ- ist of St. Paul's, not only played compositions of Handel, Nevin and Sir Arthur Sullivan, but he also accompanied the vocal num- bers of Miss Mary Ann Matchett and Mys. Hoglin. The program was designed to satisfy a variety of musical tastes, ranging from _ sacred music through heavied classics and in- cluding some of the lighter semi- classical selections familiar to all. At the close of the recital, the audi- ence had an opportunity to con- tribute their own vocal talents to the program by singing the timely “America” to the accom- paniment of Key West’s biggest pipe-organ. Father Arthur B. Dimmick delivered his benedic- tion. The program which was ren- Miss Betty Rae Russell and Miss Jessie Gibson will be hos- tesses to the Junior Woman's Club at a special social meeting to honor the new members {Thursday afternoon ‘at 7:00 o'clock.

Voluntary enlistments may be closed any day. As the manpower problem becomes more acute, need for absolute control of channeling manpower into the armed forces and pro- duction will force thd powers that be to disregard a man’s likes and dislikes and put him where they think he is most needed. Even if that time should never come, Johnny-come-earlies are skimming the cream off some branches of the services. Today | a lawyer, for example, has as much or more chance of being an Army chef as he has of prac- ticing law. The judge advocate general's department is crammed to the doors and the waiting lists look like about half the Who’s Who! of the nation’s legal profession. Why enlist in the armed forces rather than wait to be drafted? There are three good reasons: (1) By enlisting you can Pick | your service (all selectees go to the Army); you can, to some ex- tent, speed your way into the job for which you are best fitted | and hence to quicker advance- ment in pay and rating; and you may even land a commission forthwith. (2) You can get the jump of many months on those who are sitting back, waiting for the call. (8) You can always have the Personal satisfaction of ‘having answered the country’s call be- fore that call became a com- mand. This is something few , enlisted men would willingly part with. From the time they Marted to build this Atmy, the War Depart- ment has recognized the vital importance of getting the right men for the right jobs. There’s the story about the lawyer who couldn’t get into the adjutant general’s depart- ment but is walking up the mili- tary ladder today because his hobby was building electric trains. He’s a technical sergeant in charge of instrument repairs at one of the major air bases. in. the Navy. where he was a gunner. A bank teller who was a cook in a CCC camp highway. A Ph.D. is one of the Signal Corps’ ace photographers because he relaxed from his stud- ies by puttering around with a miniature camera. There isn’t one of these men who wouldn’t have been where he is or farther if he had real- idéd his talents were valuable and jumped into the fracas be- fore he was called. WAR THREATENS NEW SOOTHSAYER CROP OVER U. S. As ‘(By Assotiated Press) out for a growing swarm of mer- cenary..soothsayers, seers time, warns well-known authority on magic and author. “During and after the last World War,” he says, “there was a tremendous’ increase in the numbers of those who offered to establish contact with the dead ... for a price. Now, again, peo- ple are upset and worried. In- evitably, many who have lost sons or husbands will fall prey to conscienceless grauds who promise the impossible—unless they are forewarned, and guard against it.” MOTHER SEES CHILD KILLED NEW YORK—While her moth- er looked on helplessly, Carol Ann Shanks, 6, was run over and killed by .a, trolley. car in the Bronx. The child’s father was on the scene in an instant, his car being directly behirid the trolley when the accident occurred.’ The child ran into the path of the ap- proaching car and although the motorman jammed on the brakes, he could not stop before the front truck of the car had passed over the child’s body, killing her in- stantly.

WARNING GIVEN ON SUBJECT OF | TUBERCULOSIS MOBILE UNIT COMING TOF KEY WEST FOR PURPOSE OF MAKING TESTS BEGIN-; NING NOVEMBER 23 Every person who has been around someone with tuberculosis should have an x-ray of the lungs taken immediately. This is the advice of Dr. H. C. Galey, Presi- dent of the Monroe County Medi- cal Society. Persons in close as-} sociation with an active case of tuberculosis are called ‘contacts’ by the medieal ; profession, and} thé.rate 4 of jtibe . among Ao is occur- jed in children’ from drinking in- fected milk. Now, however, cows are tested. and those infected with tuberculosis are killéd. There- fore, today the statement’ . that every, case .of tuberciélosis. comes from another case is true. “When a person, sick with tu- berculosis coughs and does not cover his mouth, small droplets} | are sprayed into the room for several feet. Each droplet con- tains thousands of tuberculosis germs. Other persons in the room j } will breathe in these germs and |frequently become ill with the} disease. Tuberculosis germs are so small that they cannot be seen by the naked eye.” Tuberculosis is not hereditary. When several members of a fam- ily are infected, it means that the} disease has spread from one mem- ber to another. i | The Monroe County Health! Department has arranged to have the State Board of Health mobile x-ray unit in Key West, Monday, November 23 and Tuesday, No- | veriber 24. : The Monroe County Medical! Society and the health depart- ment urge all who are eligible to have an x-ray taken by the mo- | bile unit to determine whether; ‘or not they are free from tubercu-} jlosis. In early stages before symptoms develop, doctors have found that only x-ray will deter- mine its presence. In addition, it is desirable to |have all food handlers, domestic; | servants, and other similar groups} |x-rayed. Should anyone of this \group have tuberculosis the chance of infecting others, be- cause of his_occupation, is much greater. . | Special arrangements have} | been made with the Monroe Coun- |ty Medical Society and the Mon- roe County Tuberculosis and | Health Association to . x-ray all J.
