FATHER OF THE MONTH Dear Boys: Thaiiks to the editor of this paper, I have the privilege and honor of tall-cing vdth you boys for a few minutes. As for the news on the horne front there is no bad news. Everything is going along just fine. As a father, having a boy in the service, I would like to pass on to you what has meant much to me in the pact, I pray that it may add a measure of strength to your manhood in the hours of peril that may lie ahead of you. Always remember your God, your home, aii.d your country. Put God first in your life. Fatl.,er and mother, in the past, have tried to take care of you^ but now that you are in the service, we can only hope that you will pub your trust in God. He can and v;ill take care of 2’’ou, Let me urge you to get acquainted with God and take time each day to read 3'‘our Bible and pvs.y. It is not necessary that ^'"ou parade your devotion to God before your comrades in arms; but on the other hand, there is no reason under the sun v/hy ^^du should be ashcimed to pray. By living for God, you will be better fitted to serve your country as a soldier. 7fe fathers have every expectation that you are goin' to be a good soldier, Me realize you didn't ask for this job; but nov; that it is necessary, we r.re glad that you count it an honor and a privileg'e to serve your country. We are proud of you. Trust God and confess Him. It is your duty to home and loved ones as well as to God. Remember we are praying for you and x^'our safe return. May God bless ajid keep each of you. With best wishes, Julius Earls, (I would like to take this opportunity to toll you boys, that the above father, Julius Earls, is not only backing you with his prayers, but also with his money - Mr. Earls and his wife ai'c leading all persons who work for Cleveland Mill Power Company in the buying of bonds - and they have held this Icac^ership for a long period of tirae, now, so we are proud of Mr. Earls as well as bcinr very proud of c.ll you boys. I might add also that Mr. Eax’ls is the teacher of a large class of men in Sunday School and we feel th.:t the prayers of rigliteous men like him, availeth much.) Jim Osborne.
