Sunday school lesson was found
in the 18th chapter of Acts of
Apostle, seth verse also 18th
chapter and the 22nd verse. Sub
ject of the lesson was Planting a
Church in a Pagan City" Mrs. o.
B. Franklin gave a few remarks
on temperance.
The morning service was con-
Quoted by our pastor, Rev. H. w.
Bolts, Sr.. assisted by our assis-
tant pastor, Rev. f. Henderson. At
the beginning of the service, a
special prayer was offered for the
many sick and shut-ins.
Text for the sermon was taken
from the 22nd verse of the 29th
chapter of Acts of Apostle. The
theme: That l Might finish my
course with joy in the Ministry"
The fact that most people think
they are Christians and nothing
should happen to them, but yet
they have to be petted and pam
pered to keep them going straight.
If a person thinks he or she has
to be kept with a silver spoon in
his or her mouth to keep them
saved, they never were saved in
the first place. Life is a journey
because you are going some place,
but you have to decide where you
are going and have a determine
ton to get there. Religion is not
to be lived for today but should be
lived from day to day in order to
furnish your course with joy.
In opening the doors of the
church our pastor made it under
stood that Christians should find
their place among Christians and
concentrate on things that go to
make a Christian life.
No matter how heavy your load
might be, God is always ready to
hear your plea and if you'll trust
the Master right, I'm sure your
burden will be lighter. Try trust
ing him.-Rev. H. w. Bolts, Sr.,
pastor; Theresa Warren, reporter.

Water Supply
Coming From L axe

City workmen continued to
pump water this week from
the lake near the city reser-
voir as the local supply con-
tinued to diminish.
Many Alaskan communities
and several large cities in the
states have suffered water
shortages this winter.
Kodiakians are cautioned to
conserve water and use caution
with fires. Recently Peters
burg had a disastrous fire at
the time it's water supply had
gone dry.
Many families using private
water systems have been with
out water for the past week,
due to the sudden change in
weather.

I've Never Seen q Red Canary
I've Often Hoped to See One

Gelett Burgess, the humorous
poet, once said I've never seen a
purple COW: I've never hoped to
see one. but let me tell you here
and now. I'd rather see than be
one"
If he thought the purple COW
was the ultimate in rarity. it
must have been because he never
heard of a red canary.
If you've got a lot of time and
patience, you may manage to breed
such a bird. But people have
been trying vainly for 80 years. 4
The successful breeder will be
$1,000 richer, according to Charles
F. Adams. president of the Cage
Bird Society of Washington, now
putting on its cage bird show at
the Hotel Annapolis for the bene-
At of the Children's Hospital polio
ward.
Pink is as close to all red as
anyone has come, Mr.. Adams says
The $1,000 prize is offered by

the $1,000 if M/Sergt. John E,
Quigley's experience is an indi-
cation. The sergeant, assigned to
the Walter Reed provost mar
shal's office. says. "I've been fool
ing with selective breeding for
IL years and haven't succeeded yet
My wife Pauline spends most OF
her spare time trying to develop
red canary. I work at it in the
evenings"
The usual method of trying tc
breed the red canary. Mr.. Adams
said, is to cross a black-hooded
red siskin a wild finch from
Venezuela - with an ordinary
canary. THE purpose of this" he
said, rs to breed out the dark
plumage of the siskin and bring
out its red plumage, which is its
predominant color.
| Others have used the Aus
tralian fire finch with wonderful
results" he said. but the Aus
tralian bird will kill canaries il
not watched carefully"
Regarding the famed myna bird
of India, a member of the crow
family, Mr.. Adams is scornful OF
reports that it only whistles at
pretty girls. "They do whistle at
girls" he admits. "but they will
whistle at anything at any hour,
if not covered or in the dark"
But Mrs. Musette Smith. visi-
tor to the show from New York
City, is not convinced. 1.-THE Shrek

the thumb. But they agreed thc.
wouldn't work and there was al
ways the risk Mr.. Serkin would
be IN to much pain to finish the
concert.
AS he left Washington yester-
day for his home in Vermont to
wait for the thumb to heal, he
said he was glad Mr.. Shure was
coming. He praised his fellow
pianist as a fine artist, "for whom
I have the highest esteem" Mr..
Shure will play Brahms Fantasies,
Op 116; Beethoven's Sonata, Op.

CIV Victory Noise Inevitable,
Try Ear Stoppers,' Girl Told
Dr.. Morvin's Reply
To Noise Protest
CounseIs Patience

Miss Wanda A. Bradham is "a
and a music teacher only a year
out of college.
But when the George Washing
ton University band and cheer
team, with assorted supporters,
cut loose after midnight in the
alley separating her apartment
from the campus. Miss Bradham
almost forgets she is young, a
music-lover and one in whom the
college spirit still burns.
She told of her plight last night.
Ever since the fall term began
at CIV this year. Friday nights
have been shattering experiences
for her and her parents in Marion
Apartments, 1000 H street NV.
For in the alley between home
and campus the band and cheer
team have been marching up and
Gown "in full force" between 10
pm. and 2 am.
THE din is terrific" Miss Brad
ham said.
IF they're victory celebrations" I"
chimed in her father. John I.
Bradham. Il don't know what in
the devil they win, but they must
win often"
Miss Bradham added she knows
about college celebrations. I'VE
had a wonderful school spirit
at Western Maryland parades
through the town and dances. But
We never did anything to inter-
rupt the town after midnight"
Protested to DIR. Marvin.
Miss Bradham penned a protest
to Dr. Cloyd H. Marvin, president
of CIV, on October 10, three days
after the student body apparently
bad ratified the alley cobblestones
celebrating football victory over
West Virginia.
In sorrow, more than in ire.
Miss Bradham provided a photo
static copy of the letter she re-
ceived four days later. Here is the
text:
My dear Miss Bradham:
I am sorry that your beauty
sleep has been disturbed. and on
behalf of the university I am
sending you these words to tell
you that we hope you will not
have to carry too great a burden.
I called a conference after I re-
ceived your letter yesterday to
ask what could be done to keep
