all a little sick.

The captain swore loudly as
the jeep lurched forward,
rapidly picking up speed.
Wide open, the jeep hit the

gambling that there were no

Nothing happened. No smiz-

crack of carbine bullet, no
explosion of mine-nothing
slowed the jeep's careening

And sometimes with slight

Daily Prayer
FOR NIGHT THOUGHTS.

In the sleepless hours Of night
we would remember T h e upon

in the night watches. o Thou who
keepest watch over Israel, and
neither slumberest nor sleepest
We take refuge in Thoughts Of
Thee, when fears assail Us ana
ghostly doubts haunt our bed. II
is then that our anxious love
reaches out toward our aocen

the woe of world at war, In
these wakeful periods of worry,
we pray that fresh reassuranca Of
Thy presence and Thy power and
Thy peace may comfort our
hearts and give us sleep In TIL
simple faith of childhood, ma7
we commit ourselves and our all
to Thy loving watch-care. May
the night not be a drain upon On
