Facilities for Servicenen
And War Workers

Harry S. Wender, chairman OF the
District Recreation Board, who is
interested in organization OF a def
mite war fitness program here, on
Monday will ask the Hospitality
Committee of the Civilian Mobiliza-
tion Division to take such a program
under its wing.
After meeting this morning with
Milo F. Christensen, recreation
superintendent, and Acting School
Physical Education Director Hardie
Pearce, Mr.. Wender, who is a mem
ber of the War Hospitality Com
mlttee, decided to ask the committee
to emphasize fitness and co-ordina-
ton of lodging and recreational IA
cllities for servicemen and war
workers.
Mr., Pearce emphasized to Mr..
Wender that an existing organiza-
ton should be. asked to undertake
urging of District youth to put
themselves in good condition, rather
than to set up an entirely new
organization.
We should develop what we have
IN the recreation department, in the
schools and in private agencies -
said Mr.. Pearce, rather than start
Ing an entirely new organization.
urging utilization of existing
facilities. Mr.. Christensen suggested
concerted program of publicity
sucn as radio talks and a series of
newspaper articles on fitness.
Stressing the influence of news
paper publicity, Mr.. Pearce praised
afticles in The Star which he said
were instrumental in obtaining the
Ss0,o0o appropriation for an ex-
panded physical fitness program in
the District hign schools.
Both Mr.. Pearce and Mr. Chris
tinsen advised Mr.. Wender that a
big organization" and funds would
nave to be made available from
some source unless those interested
IN war fitness program could
persuaoe an existing agency to
assume responsibility for it.
Mr.. Wander plans, if Floyd n
Akers, chairman, and other members
OF the War Hospitality Committee
are willing, to issue invitations under

committee to about so leaders of
character building institutions" to
attend conference after the War
Fund drive closes November u on
setting up of the type of co-ordinat-
Ing fitness program he is advocat-

Notes Analytical and Expcsitory
/. The Polluted Temple was
clcansed by the authority of Jesus
who magnified it as a place of
prayer. Passing the barren fig
tree on the way, Jesus and the
disciples went on to the now bar
rem city, finding it also fr'litless
despite its snowy foliage. No
sooner had they entered Jerusal-
EN- than he entered into the
Temple area. the sanctuary be-
ing the objective point of the trip.
"a In the main Court of the Cen
tiles and ostensibly for the bene-
fit of the worshippers who came
from every quarter, a number OF
business inteests had been per-
mitted to locate: dealers in cat
tie, sheep, doves, and other anu
mails for sacrifice; money-chang-
ers who could accommodate visit
ors from other lands by supplying
them with the currency Of the
city and country which alone was
acceptable in Temple worship;
keepers of food supplies, and the
like. While the introduction of
this traffic may have been meant
for good originally, there was in
it not only Temple dissertation
on the very surface, but also the
temptation to all sorts of abuse
including every chance at thievery
and every impulse to greed. These
very abuses had crept in and
were at their height when Jesus
now appeared. (2) With what holy
Indignation must Jesus have sur
veyed the Temple Courts, thick

suffer such dissertation. In right
eous wrath he raised his imperial
voice and drove the whole miser-
able gang from the sacred pre-
cincts. Nor did they linger then
to question his authority. for their
own conscience assented to the
utter truth and justice Of his con
duct, they knew that they had no
business there and they knew that
they were, as he said, nothing
more than a band Of thieves who
had changed the Temple into a

there when the trafrickcrs had re-
tired! Nor would Jesus allow even
those who were passing from one
part of the city to another to
shorten the distance by going
through the Temple, or to carry
vessels back and forth needlessly
on this holy ground Thus for the
second time did the Lord of the
Temple cleanse the Temple Of the
Lord. 90 Wa. it necessary for
Jesus to declare the mission Of
the Temple? In their own Scrip
lures the Jews had time and again
quoted My house shall be call
ed a house Of PRAYER for all peo-
pies" Thither the peoples of the
earth were to come in order to
learn of the one true God and to
worship toward his holy throne.
Alas, that the very court set apart
for them should be den Of thiev-
es! (4) When he scrouged the
traffickers out of the sanctuary,
Jesus was not exceeding his pre-
rogative; it was his right and
duty to cleanse the Temple. At
the same time, this striking event
exposed him to fresh amnesty,
