TO MY MOTHER

It's been a year since | went away,
My thoughts of you, mother,
Have not gone astay;
| think of you always when Pm happy
or blue
couldn't ask for a better mother
than you.
We babe farewell that day in August,
The tears on your kind face
| will always remember
You said be kind, be faithful and true
And God will find a just reward for
you.
The days have gone the months have
passed,
But memories of you will always last.
You've given me strength and courage
too
Something only a mother can do.
The little boy who once crawled on the
floor
Is now matured and has gone to war;
love you so, and proud | am, too,
To have such wonderful mother as
you.
From your loving son,

Brotherhood is one of those fine
qualities or impulses of the soul of
which men like to speak when all is
fair and prosperous, and promptly
forget in times Of distress and strug-
gle. That is Just where Christiani-
ty shows forth at its best, for it is
in the hour Of need, sorrow, or afflic-
ton that real Christian brotherhood
shows its depth and durability.
Paul was in prison when he wrote
to Philemon. TIE one of whom he
wrote, Onesimus, was a slave who
had deserted his master and proba-
bly, dcfrauded him (v.18) He had
been converted, and now was being
sent back to his master. So we
have three Christian men dealing
with a very delicate matter, and pro-
viding us a picture of brotherhood in
action. We learn that it is

Undoubtedly Paul could have been

He could have assumed that the re-

keep him?

A housewife, wearing a fur coat
although it was July when the pic
ture was taken, is shown taking a
package of quick-frozenf food from her
locker. 1t is possible to keep as much
as $50 pounds in the storage box.
Most customers keep their boxes
full, replacing whatever they take
out with something of equal bulk, SO
that the compartment really holds
many times its capacity during a
years time. Rental of ordinary
sized lockers costs from $3.50 to
S16.50 year.
Quick freezing may be done at
home by means of specially made
small units. But these are limited
to wartime restrictions. Every home
may have one after the war; for
the present, however, the housewife
who wants to plan ahead may use
the community lockers in frozen food
locker plants which are now located
in many places throughout the coun-
try. A recent government survey
revealed that there are 1900 of these
locker plants in 46 states, handling
about half-billion pounds of meat,
poultry, fruit and vegetables year.
OF the million or so families served,
about three-quarters are farmers.
But lockers in the metropolitan New
York area report an increasing num-
Der of city folk taking advantage of
this method Of insuring a supply of
food months ahead as fresh as the
day the vegetables were taken from
the garden or the chicken was killed.
Many suburban victory gardeners
are preserving their crop SURPRISES
by the quick freeze method and
storage.
The American Frozen Food Lock-
er in White Plains, N. Y, reports
that its 1000 lockers began to fill on
last July Is, when first fruits of
Victory gardens began to come in.
Since then steady stream of GUS
toners has been pouring through
its doors with bushel baskets, car
tons, packing cases, etc. This plant
has butcher for processing meats
and poultry before freezing and stor-
age. Vegetables and fruits must be
prepared by the customers them
selves.
