ing by. military Intelligence. They
are working under Army direction
Referring to the mountain trip for
IS Italians in five Army trucks, Col
Pease added:
Trips such as this are authorized
by the commanding general of the
Army service forces, as the only re-
ward received by service units for
their contribution to the American
war effort"
The investigation was asked by
Representative Norman, Republican
OF Washington, who said that Vic
tor Lindberg, commander of the
Washington department of the Vet
Grams OF Foreign Wars, had pro-
tested to him by telegraph that this
coddling of Italian war prisoners is
an insult to our boys who are living

sciousness Of personal relationship
with the Diety. The blight Of civili-
zation is the mass of incompetents.
who can do no job well, not even the
primary task of living.
Military service has taught mil
lions of young men the primary les
son of discipline. They have learned
to obey and to work together. This
condition portends mighty results
when the boys come home. Most Of
them will not drift back into the
carefree, irresponsible habits Of pre-
war life. They have learned how to
subordinate desire to duty and to
keep fit for great objectives.
As authority at the top is the
king pin holding an army together,
50 the power that makes for q self
disciplined life is the recognition Of
the leadership of God. As our
lesson text says, The fear Of the
Lord Is the beginning of knowledge"
A God-obeying life Is surest to be a
life that endures and achieves. We
cannot overstress the Bibles practi-
cal teaching that the most satisfac-
tory and successful personality Is
secured by consistent effort to do
what God would like to have us do.
Everybody knows the tragic story
Of the American general who was de-
NOTED and sent home because, under
the influence OF cocktails, he talked
too much, betraying the approxi-
mate date of D-day His bitter ex.
perience has been to countless thou-
sands lesson upon the folly of sur
rendering self-control to the dnsidi-
GUS influence of strong drink. Our
lesson centers the whole theme Of
self-discipline upon the perils Of
alcohol. The story is enough to
make total abstainers of all boys and
girls.
