St. John S Rector, on Leave,
Aids Midshipmen's School

TO whom ..ny man may speak with
out permission. Among his varied
duties is that of bringing comfort
and counsel to the enlisted man or
officer, who is troubled with per-
sonal, financial or family worries.
Chaplain Glenn finds a decided
resurgence of interest in religion on
the part of this generation of young
Navy men whose officers, he says,
look upon the war as great
crusade.
Men Attend Many Churches.
The New York Midshipmen's s
School has the Cathedral of St.
John the Divine and many fine
parishes nearby 1t has the help of
the Columbia University chaplains
and a Jewish Navy chaplain who
gives part time to the school, so
the 5000 officers, midshipmen and
crew have a variety of religious op-
portunities. The midshipmen are at
liberty from Saturday around 4 to
Sunday at 5:45, which gives them
Sunday mornings free TO attend any
church. Sunday evenings after mess
there are three services at 7:30 pm
The Roman Catholic service is
held at Corpus Christi Church and
is led by the Roman Catholic chap
lain of Columbia. The Jewish serv-
ice is held in the chapel of the Riv-
erside Church, and the vesper serv-
ice of the school, attended by the
majority Of the midshipmen, is held
in the Riverside Church itself
through the generosity of DR.. Harry
Emerson Fosdick. pastor, and the
trustees. The midshipmen choir is
one of the best in New York, and is
led by the chaplains assistant,
Grover j. Oberle. specialist. first
class, who was organist Of ST.
Johns Church in Washington, and
before that was with DR.. Tertius
Noble. at ST. Thomas in New York
Many chaplains in the Navy who
use large churches have such as
sistants. especially recruited for
their skill on the organ.

Sunday night services according to
each mans choice" Chaplain Glenn
says, because the tradition of the
Navy has always been a strongly
religious one, and at Annapolis and
the training stations the custom
generally prevails. The services
build morale, give a sense of unity to
the school, and provide quiet op-
portunity for prayer in week
crowded with activity. There is no
objection to compulsory chapel, even
from militant believers. partly
because in the Navy, religion seems
to be a natural part of life.
