CAPTAIN Sheldon O. Hall. former
football star Of FinGlay, Ohio,
writes form the South Pacific that
he owes his life to the work of Brit
ish Methodist missionaries who
years ago converted the natives of
some Solomon Island outposts from
cannibalism to Christianity. Some
weeks ago he was shot down while
flying near Japanese-held island,
but managed to get into his rubber
raft out in the Pacific. For 366
hours he drifted heip.essly, and
then was washed ashore on jungly
| Choiseul Island (i1 the Solomons).
This island was once the home OF
headhunters and cannibals. After
some hours ashore, he was found by
a group of natives, some of whom
spoke English, ana all of whom
were Christians. They ministered
to him for eleven days, and then
led him to an American outpost
and safety.
Through Polish church circles in
London comes word that the pro-
cess of beautific alton, or declara.
ton of saintnood, for Father Rap
phael Kalinowski, Polish patriot, is
now taking place in Rome. Once a
Russian army instructor, Father
Kalinowski joined the Polish insur-
gents in 1865, and when it failed he
was arrested and sentenced to
death by the Russians. However,
they feared TO execute him because
of his popularity and he was exil-
ed to Siberia.
There ne continued and advanc-
ed his charitable works, forming
cooperatives and religious organl-
cations among exiled Poles. Upon
his release ten years later, he be-
came the tutor Of the Polish here,
Prince August Czartoryski, whose
Identification is also under way at
the present time. Later he entered
the Carmellte Older and spent the
rest of his days as priest. OF
him it is said: Father KalinoWski
was so virtuous and exemplary IN
life, and the graces received
through his intercesslon were SO
numerous ttat even during his life
time he was looked upon as a saint
by all VINO knew him."
The United States Army needs
more than 300 additional chaplalns,
according to recert statement by
Chief of Chaplalns William K. Ar
siold. Of these, $50 are needed by
the Air Force and 500 by ground
forces and service forces. He lists
the Method1sts, Lutheran, Presby-
terians, Catholic ard Negro Meth
odist communions as especially lag
ging in furnishing the quotas as
signed to them for filing chaplain
CIV vacancies. Since Pearl Harbor
General Arnold points out, 50 army
chaplains have made the supreme
sacrifice-indicating the fact that
they are serving close to the active
fighting forces.
These are times which demand
the finest in churchmanship and
call for the churcil's most adequate
ministry says Director James c.
Flint, Of the Service Committee OF
t h Congregational Christian
church. "Al the agencies of the
church-those newly created to
meet the peculiar needs of the day
and the oldest ones carrying on
programs OF 1ong standing-must
unite their efforts to present the
fullest possible Christian ministry
to world which awaits it. Service
has always been Christianity S
most effective instrument. In these
