600 Medical
Officers Needed
For Expansion

The expansion of the army creates
a need for about 600 civilian medical
officers in various grades for tenn
porary and part-time service. The
duties of full-time officers will be to
act as doctors of medicine in active
practice in hospitals, in dispensaries,
and in the field. The duty of part
time officers will be to report for
sick call at a fixed hour each day and
to be subject to emergency call at all
times.
The Civil Service Commission in
making this announcement calls par
ticular attention to the fact that part
time officers will be able to continue
their regular practice. In order that
this may be done, appointments to the
part-time positions will be made of
medical officers in the vicinity of the
place of duty.
Information concerning these pos
itions may be obtained from the Sec
rotary of the Board of U. S. Civil
Service Examiners at any first or
second-class post office, or from the
United States Civil Service Commits
sion, Washington, D. c. Physicians
are urged apply at once. This
work is of the greatest Importance to
the success of the National Defense
program.

RADIANT LIVING
Never Lonely
BY Rev. G. M. Griffeth
Cecilton, Md.

One day I called upon a dear saint.
She was aged and lived alone in a
house entirely too large for her.
care you lonely here" asked her.
81 am never lonely" she replied
with a smile. "My heavenly Father
is always with me.
Her statement caused me to think
of the many lonely people that I had
met. What would they not have Civ
en- for such a consciousness of divine
fellowship she enjoyed!
Lonely people are like those who
stood along the banks of the Jordan
and listened to John the Baptist when
he declared: "There is one in the midst
of you whom you know not"
Are not the words of the Baptist
true concerning the most of us today :?
Is there not One in the midst of us
of Whom we are not aware? Is not
God ever with you even though you
are not conscious of his presence
In fact, st. Paul, in writing concern
ing the presence of God goes to the
extent of saying: "In Him we live
and move and have our being"
The presence of God around about us
is like the presence Of the program
that is being broadcasted by some
radio station. The program with its
music is everywhere about us, yet we
are utterly unaware of it's presence
until we tune in the program by means
of a radio.
In a somewhat similar way God
is about US at all times. But it is
only the spiritual man who by his
spirituality is able to bring into his
consciousness an awareness of the Di-
vine Presence.
The spiritual man is never lonely
for there is around about him the glory
of that heavenly Presence which fills
his otherwise empty hours with con.
tinuous joyful companionship.
"Rev. Griffith has helped others to
live a more radiant life and he would
be glad to help you. Write him con-
corning your difficulty, addressing
your letter to Cecilton, Md.

It is we'll to have in the house a
small plumbers suction cup of rubber
attached to handle for use when the
pipes are slightly clogged. Applying
this to the drain causes suction and
relieves the blockage, IF it is not too
severe. A long snake wire is also
useful to clear out a clogged pipe.
