would not dry and harden in some
places before it was poured in others
so electric lights were strung around
the works and a night shift was work
ed until the walls were complete. AS

ficiently, moulds will be put in place
for the roof. There yet remains work
enough to be done on the reservoir to

Dear Friends:
In making my annual appeal for the
Christmas feast at Camp Nichols, /
would urge you to take up this work
as early as you can. The veterans
need all the help we can give them

retrench in many things that meant SO

always responded generously. Let me
thank you in advance and hope all will
send on in time for the old soldiers to
have happy Christmas.
With best wishes, am,
Yours cordially,

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love
the Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy
mind.
This is the first and great command
|ment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as myself.
On these two commandments hang
all the law and the prophets
While the Pharisees were gathered
together, Jesus asked them,
Saying, What think we of Christ?
whose son is he? They say unto him,
The son Of David.
He said unto them, How then doth
David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit
thou on my right hand, till / make
thine enemies thy footstool?
II David then call him Lord, how is
he his son?
And no man was able to answer him
a word, neither burst any man from
that day forth ask him any more
questions.
