Patton told a group of Sunday school children that he “hoped” a way would be found to end V»rs but he added that “in myj opiniof, there will be another war because i there have always been wars.”^ “We should always be in a con stant state of preparedness, for we have never found a way to stop war, i although I hope we do,” he told the | children, at the Episcopal Church of| Our Saviour, San Gabriel, where he; is a member. He was born in nearby I San Marino and was baptized fn<( confirmed in the church. ( The colorful “Blood and Guts’’ who with Lt. Gfen. James H. Doolittle, has been feted and lionized here for the past two days, warned the children that “you are the soldiers, sailors and nurses of the next war if we don’t stop wars.” Patton joined the children in sing ing “Onward, Christian Soldiers."

In memory of ‘my darling daddy I wipe away reverent tears. We lavish a day for mothers, And very little is said about dad, But day by day work takes a toll For sisters, mothers and lads. Let’s give him a show on the 17th, And let him know we’re proud God sent us a dad and a mother— We needed them both, God allowed. So now as we travel life’s highway, And learn the things we have, While giving away lovely flowers Please let’s remember “Our Dad.” He's human and needs our praises, Encouragement means a lot, Let’s give him a gift and caress him, Then he’ll know we never forgot.
