 "You shouldn't smoke in train ing" Blythe murmured, looking not at him but out at the stormy darkness.

 LIE broke off in disgust. His H manner said much. His high, clean forehead, his sensitive lips. the whole Barrymore profile and hauteur of him were tinged now with cookiness and conceit. He was not, in truth, man to take" licking. Blythe knew that hav- ing to swallow on did things to his pride. But he didn't nurse the mood long: instead, he turned to her direct and smiled in Norman Dana's own devasting way.
 q wanted to talk about you; you, Bly," he murmured. You know I'm crazy about you, don't you, hmm"
 She answered him, flat tone. T ought to. You've told me enough. !"
 "Then you'll marry me? Now? Tomorrow"
 Don't be dope"
 She felt his quick anger again.

 "We make powwow," she sig naled, using Indian signs Duane himself had taught her. She pointed to the rear.
 Not Duane, but another young man stood up. He had been alert two seats to her rear. In g. mo- ment he leaned across the sleep ing Pop Miller and whispered.
 You're lonesome, By, and SC am I. Let's go way back and have a cigaret."

rNBEDIENr at last, Miss Blythe " Miller nestled down in the big bus seat and took some of Pops oyercoat to cover her own shapely limbs.
 ''Now see that you stay put" Pop ordered. '"The lads have worked and they've got to rest, for at dawn again they'll be up flying"
 "You go to sleep" she bossed him in turn. Are you warm enough?"
 "Mmmm."
 He was as tired and depressed as his "lads" and Blythe knew It.. Gently she pushed most Of the oyercoat back over him. Since age 3 - that would be 16 years ago - the bright-eyed miss had under stood this kindly man. So, too, did the cadets understand him, and love him; he shared their wins with hearty exuberance, and Sk1OWGu IlO 1d1oC 44CoA VAA1SN0o they lost. He was a good coach; indeed, a great coach.

She seemed never to be, She watched the sleet mix with the rain and come ticking against the glass in inter mittent dashes of colder cold, so that unconsciously she snuggleo Pop at bit.

 Presently, Pop snored. Blythe turned her head and peeked ex- perimentally between the seats.

 When he sensed her gaze on him he turned toward her, and w1nked, Big Duane did smile, then, very slowly.
 "slowly and benevolently, darn it!" Blythe told herself.
 NOR two years now the big blind II OK had treated her like a child! Courteous? Kind? Oh, Lord, yes, Blythe gritted out silently, think ing it all over again. It's awful, loving a man who adopts the role of gerat silent Uncle Duane uncle! Blythe knew it wasn't an

 France, or in China, or anywhere that men want freedom.
 We say that one mans life is an- other mans life, no matter what his race, his creed, or his nation.
 We say that in these days none is free unless his brother is free; and tomorrow none shall live unless his brother lives.
 Must Go On
 The ideal of America is bigger than America, because it is universal to mankind. We must go on from here, borne up by our deep love for this land, and our deep knowl- edge of the truths out of which 1t was created. Be it on the battlefield or be it at home, we must go on. There lies ahead of us new and vast experience new world that will absorb all our energies, all our time, all our intelligence, all our devotion. The gateway to that world is war and death. So was 1t in the past for our forefathers. But every evidence from the words of Jesus Christ, and every evidence from the deeds of patriots, bears witness that if we will but pass through that gate the answer will not be death, but life. Wo can create, if we but will to do so, a new era in the history of mankind, based not upon Peace for Our Time at any price, but upon Truth for Our Time, at any price; based not upon 8 selfish clamor for God to be on our side, but upon a devoted search to place ourselves upon Gods side.
 I do not doubt that we shall at tempt this. I do not doubt it in the least. We are Americans. But the struggle will be long, and while we are fighting 1t I recommend that we carry in our hearts some simple token of what has been done before us. And the token that l recommend to you is that most native of our national Songs-a song so simple, so clear that any child can understand, from singing it, that Amreica has no shore. A. Sabin Chase, former Ameri- can consul in the Far East, vivedly described his experiences under Jap anese internment in Manchuria.
 He said the Japanese have been trained to live as Spartans for dec- ades and the people are thoroughly indictrinated with the empires con- quest desires. The only way to stop that spirit is to destroye 1t. Any thing short of complete defeat of Japan is a victory for Japan, and a compromised peace would give them Q respite to develop their resources and Inanpower for future conflict. There Is no doubt that we can best the Japanese but it Is not going to be easy.
 Other program features included an organ prelude by Carl ]. Jen- sen; Invocation and Lords prayer led by pr. John 0. Walker, Sec- ond church pastor; Scripture read- ing and prayer led by Rabbi Wll- liam P. Greenfield, Heth-El ayna- gogne; olfortoy solo by Kathryn H Fenn, and closing prayer and hene- dictlon by Rt.

Victory of the stronger and anni- hilation of the weaker is one of the teachings Hitler professes' stated Russell Davenport, Time Magazine editorial writer, in his address at the Second Congregational church forum last evening for the benefit of Bundles for Britain and at- tended by an appreciative audience of 1900.
 MT. Davenport said in part:
 Not one shred of the teachings of Jesus did Hitler profess, but only the contrary. He never spoke of meekness. Rather, he said, "The great masses are only a part of na- ture." He does not believe in love, he believes in power. He does not respect the truth because falsehood serves his purpose better. He does not offer mercy, but cruelty. He has taught German children to lust for blood, fact that Is plainly written on the faces of his young soldiers. He has deliberately set out to ex- terminate whole nations. He has throttled religion, persecuted its leaders, butchered the Jews. And in order to bind together his empire of damnation he encourages, among his conQuering troops, every indul- gence in brutality; to torture their victims, physically or mentally; to rape women in public before the eyes of their own menfolk; to des- troy what is beautiful, to steal what Is desirable, to kill any atom of flesh and blood that offers the least ob- struction.
 Do I exaggerate? Every one of these accusations can be document ed, either by his own statements or by the accounts of eye-witnesses. And I say that what we have here is no mere conqueror. The mania of this man is not to conquer, but to subvert, the world. And not just any world, my friends, but specifically and purposefully the Christian world. This man and all his works are against Christ. His deep aim is to overwhelm and extinguish the very teachings that Jesus died for. If I were to call him Anti-C Christ you might not believe me. But l bring to witness words out of his own mouth that he aspires to be, not just an anti Christ but the Anti Christ. For Adolf Hitler has said: "There have been only two great men in history, Jesus Christ and I. And Christ is dead"
 Death Machine
 Now when I say that for almost ten years you--and I - have been faced with challenge that we have failed to meet, that is the challenge I mean. For nearly ten years, by every ingenious means that we could devise, we have tried to es- cape Adolf Hitler's death-imachine, We have tried to argue it away. We have tried to laugh 1t away. We have tried to shrug 1t away. We have tried to satisfy our consciences with words-denunciati ions-empty ranting and oratory.
 The challenge we thus sought to avoid was not just q political chai- lenge. It was not just an economic challenge. It was not just Q military challenge. It was-and is--a spirit ual challenge. We have had living in Our Time the greatest enemy tc the Christian doctrine that has ever sprung up since Christ was cruel tled--a cynical, deliberate, and sub. veraive enemy, organized with all the ingenuity Of propaganda and practical psychology. and mechali. lzed with all the scientific achieve msnka of man.
