Radiant Living
VISITING
HEAVEN
By
Rev. Charles Milton Griffith

For years I have been wanting
to visit Old Mexico. Although I
have never, as yet, been there; yet
1 have become well acquainted with
our neighbor to the South.
I have been able to do this by
reading books on Mexican geo.
graphy, travel, customs, history. L
have studied photographs of i'm
portant scenes, buildings and ruins.
1 have learned the language of
that country so as to read its pap
ers and feel the surge of its activ-
tiles. 1 have listened to it's en-
trancing music and felt the charm
of its romance.
If tomorrow 1 should suddenly
find myself in Mexico, it would not
feel strange to me. For in these
many ways 1 have already visited
in spirit this most interesting coun-
try.
Why not, in the same manner,
visit Heaven?
To visit Heaven, all one needs to
do is to take an interest in heaven
ly things. Read all you can about
Heaven. Think about heavenly
things. Speak about heavenly
things. Learn the language of
heaven and use it every day. List
en- to its music of joy and daily
sing it's songs of triumph.
In short, just immense your mind
into heavenly things and it will not
be long before you will be able to
sense the atmosphere of Heaven.
It's peace and joy will flood your
soul. It's radiance will beam forth
upon your countenance.
Every man lives in that particu-
lar realm in which his mind is most
continuously engaged. The ply
stefan lives in the realm Of science,
the banker in the realm of finance,
the business man in the realm Of
commerce.
This fact confirms us in the pos
sibility of visiting Heaven. Did not
Jesus declare: 1.-THE Kingdom of
Heaven is within you"
Visit Heaven often in spirit, and
someday Heaven will become to
you a glorious reality!

ment to the closing meeting of the

and conducting the exercises, which
consisted of singing, prayer, scrip
ture reading in concert, experience
es, &C., with a marked freedom
from the stilted methods of the
days of yore. AS matter of in
formation and to give some idea
of the spirit and enthusiasm of the
great body in New York, as well
as the impression made upon the
worldly minded people of Gotham,
extracts were read of the proceed
ings of Thursday and Friday even
ings, the first by Miss Katie Beck
EFT and the second by Miss Eva
Swinney. Edward M. Boyd was
called on by the president to give
reasons why young people should
become members of Christian En-
deavor Societies." which he did in
a modest statement of well defined
thought, drawing his illustrations
from incidents of the time and
place.

II am glad to know of the second
convention of the American Federation
of Women'S AuXiliaries of Labor and
want to send you my best wishes for
Il profitable series OF meetings.
"Your organization has an important
role to play in the war effort because
your activities are so closely associated
with the important work of the prepa-
ration of materials so necessary to
victory. In helping to carry on the life
of our people and doing your daily
duty of keeping the home fires burli
ing and promoting the family welfare
you are helping to make the essential
sacrifices-conserving resources, shar-
ing commodities, and helping in the
protection of civilians against the men
aces of air raids, malnutrition and
epidemics
For all this I want to thank you
and wish you continuing success"
Numerous other communications and
kilograms We're received from leaders
in civic life as well as those in the
labor movement.
The convention authorized the Off
GERS to- dispatch the following cable
gram to General Douglas Macarthur: !:
1.-The officers and members of the
American Federation of women $
AuXiliaries of Labor through their
delegates in convention assembled,
sOlemnly pledge their unqualified sup
port to you In our war for world
freedom. We desire to express our su-
preme confidence in your ability to win
u final victory"
Resolutions prOclaiming all-Out sup
port for every war activity were
passed. The delegates also expressed
their appreciation for the cooperation
OF the labor press as follows
Resolved, That the second cOnven-
tiOn of the American Federation of
WOmen's AuXiliaries of Labor express

the Shenandoah American Legion con-
demned the Intolerance against inno-

United Action Best

United Action Best
The AFL, Green said, had reached
record high of 6,OOO,OOO members. He
emphasized that it was ''paid-up and
not claimed or fictitious member
ship" Hailing this as progress, he
added that the ".AFL is pretty lively
corpse, although according to some
people it was dead and buried in 1885,
I'VE have always felt that labor
could best serve itself by one, strong
united union" Green told the delegates.
division and discord weaken labor.
We have never stopped appealing to
those who left us in 1885 to come back
same rooms that are awaiting them, as
the return of the prOdigal son. There
will he no recriminatiOns if they come
back home.
Our willingness to forgive and for
get is ONE reason the LAFL is united
as never before. l hope eventually that
the rising tide which l detect in the
ranks of the rebel rival movement will
compel their leaders to sit down
around conference table like men
and make an honest effort to bring
about united labor movement in the
United States
Points to CIO Row
Without referring to the CIO leaders
by name, Green pointed to the dispute
between Philip Murray, CIO president,
and John L. Lewis, former president,
as having reached the "name-calling"
stage while the AFL, he said, was
seeking to bring about solidarity in the
labor ranks.

Russia like the last That is why he
can be expected to gather his forces
for last desperate attempt to crush
Russia now. And that is why it is i'm
perative that the United Nations open
a second front in Europe at the earliest

"Yanks Are Coming"
I'VE are assured by our leaders and
by events that the way is being pre-
pared for such Il rear-guard assault on
Hitler which will compel him to with
draw some of his forces now cOncen-

And to the brave and unconquer-
able people of Russia we send this
word Keep up the good fight, for the
Ianks are coming
Pledging AFL help to the Russian
people, Green declared:
Our sympathy for the plight of the
Russian people now finds expression in
practical assistance. Our Government
is rushing arms and ammunition to
Russia. We can do our part by sending
food clothing and medicine to relieve
the suffering of the Russian people.
This is made possible through an
American agency, Incorporated as Rus
sian War Relief. More than million
dollars worth OF supplies has been
sent to Russia by this organization.
Much more help is needed.
LabOr's Help Pledged
speaking for the six million Ameri-
can workers under the banner of the

Russian people and to intensity their
civilian defense. | say thit knowing

registration of union members is being
urged to speed up recruiting of volun-
teerS for both the protective services
and civilian mobilization activities of
all local defense councils, the Labor
Section of the Office of Civilian De

Although union members will be

Corps.
teer as individuals TO work in either
the Citizens Defense Corps or the tiii-
Zens Service Corps.
Registration Methods
Several methods of group regstra-
ton have been worked oul-unons and
defense councils cooperating on re-.
cruiting Will select the procedure that
best meets their needs. Ways of regis
tering union members by groups are:
|. Civilian defense volunteer offices
may send registrars to union halls To
interview members and register them
for service
>. Where an Insufficient number of
registrars exists in the volunteer office
IL group of union members Is given
training in Interviewing and they then
register their fellow members.
3. Where the number of members in
any one local is too great to register
at the halls, the shop chairman and
business agents have been provided
with small cards on which they record
the name and address of any member
who wishes Ia volunteer. These cards
are then sorted by the areas In which
the workers live, and the volunteer of
flee, in cooperation with the union,
arrangeS meetings in various localities
wher" the members are registered.
Recruiting Officers Named
!. Some unions are appointing re-
cruiting officers, who are officially rec
OgniZed by the OtD volunteer office
These recruiting officers take II census
of the union members, noting special
skills and training. When II group of
volunteers is needed by OCD the vol
unleer office calls the recruiting officer
at the union and members are sent in
for registration.
The Office of Civilian Defense urges
all unions To make known TO the local
civilian defense councils the extent f.
which they can cooperate In these
group registration plans.
