CHRISTMAS EVE TREAT


The Christmas festivities here
fittingly begun with a baritone re-
cital by Cpl. Joseph Cole, Service
Company GRIND Infantry. Cpl. Cole
possesses excellent press notices
from well known daily papers, evil
IDENTIFY given at a critical time in
his musical career, career inter-
rupted by a call to arms for the
defense of his country. He is to be
commended for keeping up his sing
ing even as he trained to be fight
ing man.
At his request and for the express
purpose of enabling his Command
ing Officer, Col. Gourdin, to attend,
the recital hour was changed to 8
o'clock, at which time the front
doors were locked. Quiet was OBJ
tanned, all games closed, lights low
cred and a beautiful concert got
under way. The spontaneous ap-
plause gave evidence of real joy in
listening to well trained singer.
The program consisted of three
groups with Negro music composing
the last group. Not the familiar
Spirituals, but new versions of them
and some new Negro songs. In re-
sponse to enthusiastic applause Cpl.
Cole gave a much enjoyed encore as
we'll as took repeated bows.
Singer Wins Prize
The talent mite program produced
a surprise when Sgt. Frank G. Har-
din, Hq. Co. lst Bn. won the first
prize of $500. Upon the insistence
of his friends he sang Molettes, THE
Lords Prayer" playing his own ac-
compartment. Other winners were:
End prize, $500, Pvt. Charles M.
Daniel, Co. B; third prize, $500, to
Pfc. Harry R. Westray, Co.. A. The
NC, Jodie walker, Co. F, was in
fine style.
The next talent night will feature
contest of quartetss Remember!
You don't show up with any dances
on the past program.
Christmas Fun
1t was truly Merry Xmas Mon
day afternoon when 1900 packed the
Service Club Number and 80 cou-
pies were swinging and swaying,
jumping and cheering to that sweet
227th music.
If you failed to come last Friday
night when McCoy's Post Swingsters
gave out at your Service Club, you
truly missed some NICE music.
Crumpler's fine songs added much
to the ensemble. We want him to
come back next time.
The difference in the styles of
music rendered by these two most
excellent dance bands is interesting
and refreshing. To us the styles ap-
pear to be:
227 dance Band, the Harry James
style; while Mccoy adopts the
smooth gliding sweet style of Guy

Beckons Soldiers
On First Sunday

Although there is no Post Chap
lain assigned to Sou 1922 at the
present time, religious services are
still being regularly held for the
Post complement on the Old Post

Post, wishes soldiers or their faml-
lies to know that he can be reached
at any time to discuss problems with
personnel. He can be called at 3178
during work hours or at 3187 in the
evenings.
"God Expects Service"
He urges that everyone should
start the New Year right by going
to church. Don't forget God" he
counsels, "for His mercy to us dur
ing the past year"
He went on to state: Many, per-
haps, who have lived cleaner lives
than we have, have gone on and we
have been left here to fill some
purpose in His Divine plan.
I'VE must remember" he said,
"That God expects some service from
each of. us"

A Poem To Service Club No. One
1 find much Joy at evening
When the day is done
Because 1 find my happy way
To Service Club No. One.
There may sit and ponder
And idly dream awhile
How fine are these sweet visions
That makes the heart to smile.
Then too / may read book
And thus relax the mind
The hostesses will lend smile
A smile tender and kind.
There's also entertainment
That cause my blues to run
Another reason why go
To Service Club No. One.
So 1 confess no further
Because my heart is won
And thanks to you fine people
At Service Club No. One!
Written December 81, 1914, and

dedicate themselves to making the
soldier feel at home away from

Captain Lazarsky had enlist

An instructor in an engineering
school, he had volunteered for

five months in China, training
troops. Later he had gone TO the
Burma theater, TO parachute

Among Jap officers in the
Burma theater, a Colonel Mari

his cunning, savage fighting. A
price of 500 rupees. the equiv

his head. The sum was large
one for the natives.
Captain Lazarsky had orders
TO get Colonel Mariana. He para

SAN FRANCISCO JOSH e
Bishop owns a radium mine
Pitchblende. radium-bearing ore
Is also the source for uranium
- the vital ingredient in the
atomic bomb.
For that reason, her buried
treasure, 900 feet under the
Mojave Desert, Is even more
important now than IL was in
1897. when tests of her Red
Rock mine first revealed the
presence of pitchblende.
The discovery created an in
ternational furor. The Curie In
stitute in Paris made tests and
was convinced. The precious
substance was then - and still
is - mined at only one place
in the world, and that was in
Canada. One other mine in the
Belgian Congo had long since
closed down. Mining interests
began to bid for drilling leases
on the Red Rock claims.
Fantastic riches were dangled
before the eyes Of Josie Bishop,
selfstyled desert rat. She was
feted in San Francisco. honored
in New York. She planned a
home for crippled children -
and refuge for worn-out pros
pectors. She brought with her
to the streets of the cities a
Whff Of pungent desert holly.
CLAIM MINE "SALTED"
Then an "official' test of sam
pie ores from her mine showed
