The Panora Vedette says the fact
that the cheap falsehoods about the
Red Cross are all almost exactly alike
ought to prove to anyone of common

fountain head Of misinformation. Ger

Robert H. Scott, field representative of the American Red Cross, will ar rive in Seward on the Admiral Evans en route westward and desires while here to confer with a committee from the temporary organization here.
 On his return from westward, MT. Scott will assist in establishing a per manent organization here.
 The war committee of the Ameri- can Red Cross wants every unit or ganized on working basis as the need for everything that can be pro- duced in the way of bandages, and hospital garments is great.

 On this trip Mir. Scott will organ ize units at Cordova, Valdez and An chorage in addition to the chapter here.

SUNDAYS
 SERMONS

Rev. Patton used the theme, "The Eyes of the Heart" Sunday morning. The pastor said that there are vari- ous ways whereby men are able to see. By careful training those who have lost the sight of their eyes are made able to read by the sense of touch. Their fingers are made to act as substitutes for the eyes. Jesus says in Matthew 5:S, "Bessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God" What a man sees depends greatly upon his education. Men walked over the Cali fornia oil fields and picked up the resi- due of oil as one would handle coke and merely wondered what it could be. It remained for man who was taught in those lines to make for tune from that which others had passed idly by. Within our own Ter ritory miners for years trudged over tungsten ore and merely wondered what the queer appearance of the stone meant, yet within the past two or three years a mineralogist has reaped a rich harvest by shipping this ore to distant markets. Paul pleads in Ephesians 1:18 that Having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints and what the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, accord ing to that working of the strength of his might which he wrought in Christ"

COMMUNITY CHRISTIAN CHURCH

Rev. Munro found his text in John 14:8-9 where Philip expresses the fun damental human desire: "show us the Father and it sufficeth us" What is the nature of the creative and direc- tive force back of this universe? With what kind of God have we to deal? Is he vengeful, domineering, malig- nant as many primitive peoples have thought, or is he benign, fatherIy, loving and forgiving? Jesus answer is complete and satisfying. "He that hath seen me hath seen the Father" Jesus is the creative and controlling dynamic of the universe translated into human, personal termnology. His life and character show that force to be a personal loving Father, whose dominant quality is service prompted by a loving, longing, breaking heart. God laborS in the universe as mans servant, conducting it's forces to the end that men may grow into real sons of God. Human failure and soul dis ease broke Jesus heart, nor does Cal vary mark Gods only suffering be- cause of sin. The cross has always been in the heart of God. On Cal vary he let men see it there, the tenn poral sign of Gods eternal heartache. How can we be indifferent to a God like that? Yet "he that hath seen me hath seen the Father"

N BOYS

From some bright writer the fol-
lowing fugitive verses come, and
while they may not strike the fancy
Of every reader, they have some home
ly philosophy and bring out L truth or
two:
Hey! Hey!
You folks that say
Tobacco is a sin
That's %draggin' men to hell,
An pitchin' of 'em in,
An that you'd rather see
Our boys in khaki get
A wave of poison gas
Than smoke a cigarette
Let's calculate a bit
An get the straight of it.
You say it's wasteful? Yes,
Sos gum and breakfast food,
Ice cream and soda water,
An everything that's good
An people like, but could
No doubt
Exist without.
It's just a habit? Yes,
Sos golf an clubs an dress,
An books, an maxim rhymes,
An even church, sometimes.
1t takes the sweetness from a kiss?
That's true,
But onions do that, too,
An it's not much amiss
For whom this kissing is too free,
The biggest troubles be.
AS bad as drink, you say?
Did you, in all yer life,
Hear of a cuss who, cause he smoked
Too much, would beat his wife.
Or pawn his baby's shoes,
Or let the hunger grippe
So he could have the money
To buy another pipe?
An say, what is a sin?
Some habit or some waste
That YOU amt never got into,
An don't jest suit yer taste?
