is Killed Somewhere
in France
BY The Rev. James Warfield

BY Inc Rev. James Warf1eId
Fate is no respecter of persons
even the mighty fall In battle.
A pathetic story has come to our
attention; a story which we can
add to the many others, to tell why
war should never be.
The Christian Church assembled
on its fourth anniversary; an occa-
sion which summons joyful spirit
but such could not be expressed
Moistened eyes revealed that rumors
had been confirmed. Pvt. William
H. Croly, 27145 Eureka, their be-
loved Bible School superintendent
had been killed in action" some
where in France.
Pvt. Croly was charter member
of the church, and had served as
the director of religious education
since its establishment. His winning
personality contributed much to Its
success. Only a short time ago, he
had visited the congregation and

"NORMANDIE"
I've stood upon the deck and seen
The beach with wreckage strewn,
Upon its shallow, watered sides
Thru which the Yanks had heWn
A path in blood, a holy trail,
Up thru the sands to breast
The hill and onward, ever on
To give the Boche no rest.
I've clambered down the scramble
net
With pack and gun to leave
The troop-ship for a landing boat
And felt my stomach heave
And fall again, and pack-straps cut
To make my shoulders sore,
As thru the shattered hulks I rode
And met the Norman Shore.
In heroes footsteps I have trod
Across that stretch Of sand
And up the same steep, arduous
slope,
Off to the left a band
OF trim white crosses row by row,
Are cleaning in the sun.
The world will know how bravely
there
They rooted out the Hun.
BY trade he was a commercial
artist. At the time of his enlist
ment, he was employed by the Ford
Motor Company at the Willow Run
Plant.
OF those who knew him, he shall
always be remembered as a capable
and efficient leader who always had
a smile and kind word for every
body. A great personality has fallen
Truly, we can say that a blue star
has turned to gold and now adds to
the luStre of Gods heaven.
