The Real Sky Pilot
PFC. ERWIN l.. KOERBER.
JoE PRIVATE SAYS

The bomber was riddled, Was out of control. The pilot was desperate Feeling the aileron go; As, close to the earth the stricken
 plane sped, Prepare to jump, men," the pilot
 said. The speed was too great, The earth was too near. No time to jump From the plane and be clear. So the crew stuck, to see 1t
 through, Though there was nothing skill
 could do. Suddenly, the ship came out of the dive. As if by magic, the controls came
 alive. The ship strengthened out on a
 level course Death played no longer Then said the pilot as he mopped
 his brow; Thanks, Lord, I'll take over now."

These are the words Of right
eous God. 1 am told in one case
where a Judge talked to his mother
about a 26-year-old boy, whom he
was going to have to sentence the
following day. They had quite a.
conversation about it so I am told.
But in the end the young man
was given the electric chair, but
before he died one of the judges
sons was killed accidentally.
I just wonder in these cases is
God not trying to open someone's
eyes?
Divorce Courts.
In the 10th chapter of Marks
Gospel, verses l through II, We find
that God tells us plainly it was
never his will for men and women
to be divorced once they were
legally married.
Verse 9 says, What therefore
God hath joined together, let not
man put asunder.
wonder about some of these
judges who so frequently and 80
often have torn asunder father and
mother to leave children homeless,
what will be their end?
Isaiah lit, Here God speaks Of
Judging the fatherless and the
widow. Also in jeremiah 5:28 God
again speaks of judging the father
less. 4.
Therefore today I wonder what
some of these judges who have
children think when without muchla
consideration they say divorce
granted" !
If they would make it strict and
not so easy for men and women toe
get divorces, giving them perhaps
a year to think it over, they might
become reconciled to each other.
1t would be far better than children
having two fathers and two moth.
ers and still not have home.
