ily ties incline them to disbelieve
such stories. Before I left the coun-
try I was loaded with letters for
italian relatives living all over the
United States. However, they were
taken from me by the censors.
While the Italians are not over
fond of the British-they consider
them patronizing and selfish-they
did not believe the circulated story
that their cruel treatment Of the
Duke of Aosta, who surrendered in
Ethiopia, resulted in his death. 1t
was too we'll known that the duke
died of tuberculosis.
I knew a woman with five sons,
one OF whom was prisoner of the
British in Africa. She was told he
would be tortured by his captors.
But she did not believe 1t. Il know
the English" she said to me. They
are not that kind of people"
The Italians heard a lot about the
cold in Russia. The newsreels
showed the snow and the condi-
tions under which the Germans and
Italians had to fight. And it made
deep impression on the women
Whenever son or husband is to
be sent abroad, the women say, Let
us hope it is not to Russia" II
their menfolk must fight, they pre-
fer them to 60 to Africa, which is
country they can visualize, and
where it is always warm. But you
would be surprised at the number
of young Italians in civilian clothes.
BY some excuse or other. they man
age to get themselves exempted
from the war service they hate so
much.
Young Prefer Love- Making.
No. the young men of Italy prefer
the more peaceful pastime of love-
making. 1t used to be the ambi-
ton of most young Italians to have
friendship with an American or
English girl Now 1t Is the fashion
to find a sweetheart among the
huge number of German women in
Italy. Some of these women came
to Italy with their tourist" hus-
bands, others are students at the
universities, some are working in
government bureaus. Italian men
have had great success with the
German women, and they boast OF
their conquests.
The German men are not as pop
ular as their women. But Italian
dislike of them is kept down through
fear of the Nazi and Fascist par
ties. The Germans reciprocate the
animosity of the Italians and are
contemptuous of the Axis weakling

Formation Of Committee
On Africa Is Announced

Formation of a Committee on
Africa, the War and Peace Aims,
with its major objective the ap-
plication Of the Atlantic Charter
to present and future African prob

DR.. Anson Phelps Stokes.
The unofIicial and independent

men and women who have lived In

who have visited there to study

Pastor Ernest Lewerenz, whose
pastorate extended until the year
1923, when he was called to be-
come professor at Concordia
College at Fort Wayne, Indiana.
In the same year Pastor Ar
thur Wuggazer of st. Clair,
Michigan, accepted the call to
this congregation. During his
pastorate, the fiftieth anniver-
sary of the congregation was OBJ
served. In April of the year
1897 the present pastor, Mr..
Louis Heinecke, took UP his du-
ties as pastor of Trinity Lutheran
Church.
From its very beginning the
church has fostered a Christian
day school. At first, Pastor
Claus conducted school, as did
Pastor Wilson; however. in the
year 1899 a teacher was called
to take charge of the school,
Fred Piepho, and from that time
on the school kept step with the
congregation in slow, but steady
growth.
The following teachers have
served Trinity Lutheran Church
Christian day school in the past:
George Golmjewski, Carl Ruff,
Herbert Arendt, Elmer Pflieger,

kamp. At the present the school
employs three teachers, Paul
Seeman, w. M. Graebner, Mrs.

Hold Successful
Farmers Night

UTICA. Farmers Night at
the Utica Rotary Club Tuesday
evening lived up to its usual
high standard, when more than
80 Rotarians and their farmer
guests assembled for dinner and
program at Trinity parish hall.
Highlighting the program was
the talk given by Leo Cards, of

agriculture, upon the import
ance of the farmer in deciding
the outcome of the war. Pro-
gram leader of the year, DR.. l..

more, who, in turn introduced
Cards. Stating that the farmer
was as necessary in this war as
the man in the front lines, Mr..
Cards cited instances in previ-
Gus wars where battles were
lost or won because of food. He
stated that he definitely knew
of an important battle of the
present war which was lost be-
cause of malnutrition.
The Utica High School band,
under direction of Oscar B.
Huyghe, played several num-
bers at the opening of the pro-
gram.
Carl Gladly, who has presided
at the piano for the Utica club,
will leave October IA for Fort
Custer to enter the service. He
gave some solo numbers for the
entertainment of the company
and then Rotarian Sidney Cd
gers, fittingly and with feeling,
presented Gladly with a COLLAPSE
BILE toilet kit case as a token of
esteem from the club.
William Murphy, county agri-
cultural agent, and Sherwood
Bennett and Paul Benz of Mount
Clemens, were guests.
Owing to an inter-city meet
ing at Richmond next Tuesday

For one of your old buddies
Would have never let you down.
