The Cast.

around with him is a dramatic
detail for which Battle Cry"
lacks the time to explore.
On the wise premise that his
script is dealing principally with
touch-and-go romance, Director
Walsh has not insisted upon
more than surface representa-
ton of Battle Cry characters.
If his actors look their parts,
and this they do, he can see no
need for them to act them
Nevertheless, a few better than
routine performances are evident
in the sizzling movement Of the
film. Van Hef1in, for one, has a
rewarding go at the hard-boiled
major with a kindly heart; James
Whitrnore puts bit of substance
into the inevitable top sergeant:
and Miss Olson and Ray do well
by the nice New Zealand girl and
the lumberjack who understands
only the basic facts Of life.
On the whole, Battle Cry" is
a kind of Hello to Arms" that
is not to be compared to Hem
ingway's Farewell to Arms" Of
World War I.

another sermon in a series on
prayer. Scripture, Psalms 1914.
LET the words of my mouth, and
the meditation Of my heart, be ac-
ceptable in thy sight, o Lord, my
strength and my Redeemer." Some
thoughts to be remembered are:
the words of our mouths should be
those that are pleasing in the sight
of God. In praying we ask for
many things we don't need. We
should ask for wisdom. Let US
think before we speak and ask
God to help US. not only speak the
truth, but think the truth also.
