The Part You Will Play If you aro old enough to graduate Iroin college you aro old enough to put UHido childish thoughts and habits. You ure old enough to art like men and women. It is to you youngsters facing bravely a new world that I want seriously to write this week. I have Bald before that 1 envy you. My rruHona are aw follow#: You will have been a factor In Having the good thlngH of this world agaiiiHt the gangsters of Kurope end Asia. Yon will In* acquainted with tho new I)?.feuno Industry which will continue iin Important factor after the w ar. \ You will belong to the world's leading and greatest nation, when, after I tho war, all the world looka to us lor Ku Ida lice. You will see I he airplane coming into Its own. carrying passengers and freight to all parth of the world, levoluiionizing commerce. You can have a part In reforming and rebuilding democracy; In lau h" veterans of World War II nay < ontrol pol11Ich. You will enjoy a more sensible vtatidiird of living with much of (lie present foolishness and waste eliminated. If you are an expert ou.somo phase of business, with a real helpmate tor a wife, you need have no llnancial worrleH. You will enjoy new inventions, new products, and new proces&Ofl not yet discovered. These will give further new openings. You are fortunate to enter business without the handicaps of having trained In the "good old days" which your parents miss. Most important of all, you will witness a great spiritual awakening in which 1 sincerely hope you will tako a most active part. A Way Of Life Of course, much depends on the I length of the war. It may last some years or it*. may ho over within twelve months. One thing I am certain. namely, the longer It lasts, the greater opportunities 1t will offer to those who are alert and anxious to he of real service. Right now young people can render great service by keeping calm and helping others from getting excited and going off halfcocked. Too many people?old and young?are not showing the courage necessary to face these wartime days. They are running around, waving their hands in the air and saying, "What will I do?" "What can I do?" Just tell them to hold on a minute, to quiet down, and to take it easy. Furthermore my young friends, don't you jump through the first hoop held before you. Consult with your parents ?they've been through the mill. If in disagreement with them try cbmpromising. After the war, much pressure will be brought upon you to join this group or that group. The age-old question of world expansion or national isolation will again come up. Blocs of one kind or* another w ill be formed Labor problems will again be in the forefront. Even if many of the Administration's wartime powers are revoked, new social order schemes will arise to take their place. My advice i8 to avoid all of these. Go quietly about your business, keep your own cofinsel, be not talked Into or against any faction. Such cycles come and go. During the coming one there will be marvelous chances for the young people who keep their eyes and ears open, their life clean, and their mouth shut ? | WARTIME NEEDS 1 CHANCE GREYHOUND SCHEDULES EFFECTIVE MONDAY JUNE 15TH ... Greyhound buses will operate on new wartime schedules. This change in 1 service is being made in order to cooperate to the fullest extent with the wartime plans of the Office of Defense Transportation. The purpose is to make every <5us work full time ? keeping vital traffic on the move. America's wmr program trot the right oi way! The great majority of the people Greyhound is carrying today and intends to carry efficiently are aelecteea traveling to examination center#, fighting men on leave or furlough, war worker# moving to their jobs, buaines?men traveling on easential work. The trip# they take are necessary to keep the war program rolling. i With increased service demanded for war I production area#?and little increase in buses available?it is necessary to divert ' equipment to routes where it is most | needed. MsMty peacetime features are discontinued. Operating speeds are somewhat reduced. Express and Limited Schedules are eliminated entirely. Second sections of regular schedules are being I eliminated unless the buses carry a | sufficient number of passengers. Greyj hound schedules will be combined with 1 those of other bus companies, when necessary. Co<ii?rvo(ran of rubber is all-important? j and Greyhound is taking every possible step to increase the big savings already effected. Today buses use only a fraction ss much rubber as private cars per passenger, per mile?and they average more than 40,000 miles per tire. We hope thai th?s wartime* cheap? will not cause you inconvenience, crowding or delay. But if you don't find travel as comfortable and easy as in normal times, please make allowances! The war j effort comes first with Greyhound as it does with you! You Can Help by getting information about the new schedules before you travel?taking as little baggage as possible ? traveling before or after tbe mid-summer rush ' period?taking your trip on mid-week j days, leaving seats on week-ends for soldiers and war workers.

A very timely and instructive discourse?directed specifically to young men, many of whom at this time are finishing their high school .studies, and who have made no definite plans for future studies or for a lifetime course of action. To such he stressed the need for pleasure and power for good to be gained by adopting a course of gospel training and ministerial work for those who are fitted for such work. Dr. Jopling backed up his discourse by relating some interesting personal experiences in his ministerial work of forty years or more. The vacation season has arrived < and most of the schools have closed for the summer months and the i teachers have returned to their homes ' for a period of recreation, if not, of rest. Some will attend summer 1 school, some go to the beach resorts ' and some to the mountains to enjoy < the cooling breezes of the higher altitudes. It's a season of pleasant i anticipation, of meeting wijh friends ] and loved ones. It also has its se- ( rious side of breaking up of pleasant ; and congenial friendships formed ( during school time which will in , many cases never be renewed by ] teachers and pupils alike.
