BONDS AND STAMPS
War bonds and stamps are what
they're asking
Buy them freely every day
For all the people want to get
Japs and Germans out of their
way.
We are having plenty of trouble
Trying to fight against the Japs
Buy war savings bonds and
stamps.
And slap the Jap right off the
map.
Everyone buy bonds and stamps,
And always stay in practice
to help our soldiers.
Beat the Axis.
So stop buying the bracelet and
luxuries,
And start buying things you
need.
And the subject of war stamps
and bonds,
To it we must take heed
For the Japs and Germans are
trying
To make it harder in every way.
So let us all start buying
War Saving Stamps today.

 This local effort of Professionalism which was also fittingly celebrated yesterday by other churches from Maine to the coast of California, was staged to show the interest be- ing demonstrated by Protestant leaders in a just and durable peace and their determination as Chris tian citizens to achieve it.
 Prof. John Bennett of Union The ological Seminary told his local audience that revolutionary fer ment in the world must be given constructive channels or there can be no peace. Most of the people of the world desire peace, he added, but 1t is difficult to will the condi- tions of peace.
 Tn & panel discussion, composed og clerical and lay leaders yester- day afternoon, a spirit of recon- ciliation was emphasized as major aspect of p Christian world order. Participants in the group were Rev. Dr. John c. Walker, Miss He- len Haugh, Waterbury; Rev. o. Lawson Willard, New Haven, Prof. Bennett and Rev. Harold Bosley, Baltimore, with Rev. Alan M. Fair bank as moderator.
 Rev. Dr. Edwin E. Aubrey chair man of the Theological Field at the University of Chicago, pointed out that the work of the church in the interest of peace is laying the foundation for world order.

 Dereskevice dropped the case and started to run, but was collsred by Levesque. The black sedan drove away.
 Levesque told Detective Iieuten- ant George McElligott anG Sgt.

It was forced on them and they never were able to under stand how to defend themselves. But they will win eventually. For their spirit Is the spirit of right and the right will win"
 Ask If she wished she could have fought with her girls, Helen replied, "Yes, often I wished l could have been with them when the fateful days came. I had prepared with them and knew how they felt, But perhaps 1t is just as well, Now maybe I can tell others what they stood for. And maybe that will en- courage others to fight harder"
 It has been a long time since she has had a rifle in her hands, she explained, and preferred to do radio work in the STARS to actually shooting Q gun. q am out of prac- tice now anyway she pointed out with a grim smile.
 Helen's parents are dead and her sister and brother-in-laW are cap- tives in Poland. A younger brother only IT disappeared before the in- vasion and Helen hopes he has es- capped into England, Her older brother Alex Is Q private In the Army Signal corps. He was in Pol and when Helen started her sharp shooters ard organized male coun- terpart. Most of the men were later absorbed into the army, however, and Alex came back to America with Helen.
 To Remain Here
 When the war is over the young SPAR will want to stay here. "When you are here you realize that 1t is the greatest country in the world, I always considered 1t my homeland. Most all the world does. And be- sides Europe will probably never be the land 1t was before this started"
 Without any souvenirs of her now famous organization, Helen says she even left her uniform in ! Poland before she came back. q have nothing but memories Of those girls, But shall never forget how they sang as they marched and drilled. Their song should be the song of the STARS and all other women In the war.
 | We are the future of the Nation
 Proudly we march ahead
 We believe in Liberty and Freedom
 And we fight for 1t even to death.
 Maybe the women sang that song as the Nazis rolled over them in Poland. But other women will sing 1t when Germany Is defeated"
