DR.. L. Grady Cooper, presiden:

Japanese prisoner for six months
in an interment camp at Tsingtao
in occupied China, will speak from
the pulpit of st. Pauls Lutheran
church Sunday morning at the II
O. clock service. At o'clock Sun.
day night. DR.. Cooper will speak
in St. Matthew'S Lutheran church.
Following study in this country
and in Europe, DR.. Cooper went to
China fifteen years ago under the
direction of the Board Of Foreign
Missions Of the United Lutheran
church. He served in this capacity
until the day of the attack upon
Pearl Harbor, when he, along with
other Americans and Europeans,
was thrown into an interment
camp. From this experience DR..
Cooper has learned something of
Japanese war psychology, their
essential sadism, jingoism, and
feigned superiority.
Along with other missionaries,
diplomats, and civilian prisoners,
DR.. Cooper returned to the United
States last summer on the Grip
sholm. The former missionary to
China is now located in Columbia,
S. c., as field agent for the Board
of Foreign Missions and doing
deputation work for the cause of
''World-Wide Missions and Evan
gelism.'
DR.. Cooper confidently believes
that the United Nations will win
the war, and that China's freedom
will be restored. He says when
the United Nations have won there
will be opened a golden era of mis-
sions in the Far East, especially
China"
The public is cordially invited to
hear DR.. Cooper present first
hand account of the Far Eastern
situation when he speaks at the
services in st. Pauls and st.
Matthew's Sunday.
