THINKING OF THE BOYS IN SERVICE

BY Marlee Hollns
Through this dark and lonesome world
Our boys are risking their lives.
They toiling through rain and snow
Going almost hundred miles
They arc fighting for our country
They trying to give peace
SO people must send up a special PRAYER
For our boys who
SO listen my dear people,
We all must stop and pray
And think about the boys who are on the
That they will return some dav
Wake up people, wake up
In this sinful world they need Your pray
And our soldiers who in service now
Would think of us ii we were there.
Our boys who on the battlefield
They are facing the unknown land.
They are giving their lives for the people
Dear God give them Courage TO stand
Keep on America we bound to win
With Gen. Macarthur and his fighting
America walked out and took the line.
With the Lord in 'front.' we the people
behind
Dear TREND you must continue to pray
DO not lose too much time in play
Buy bonds in every drive that starts
While Saints Industrial, too is doing her
part

skids Wednesday when general re-
cessions were the sharpest since
November 26. Exceptions were as
sorted specialties, particularly shares
and bonds of concerns with South
American properties which were
spurred by the divorce of Argentina
from the Axis.
Liquors came to life Thursday on
revived whisky dividend hopes and
word there would be no new manu-
facture of potables in 1914. Latin
American dollar bonds also con-
tinued their upswing. The share
market snapped back Friday for
the best rally since January IA, ap-
parently buoyed by the better than
expected Bethlehem Steel report
and the appreciable drying up of
offerings in the preceding session.
Many Buyers Aloof.
Many potential purchasers held
aloof to await completion of the

tant foreign developments and final
