What couTcfbe'mofe delightful?
Peter and John had spoken the
truth and declared salvation to be
only in the name of Jesus (v. 12). 1
Certain easy talkers within the (
Church who tell us that we must not i
be narrow but broad enough to see
salvation in all religions, had better
read that verse again.
Because they had preached Christ,
and for no other reason, they were
imprisoned, then released on condition
that they would not mention
Him again. What a splendid opportunity
for a smooth and comfortable
compromise! They could preach
but just leave out Christ. Did they
do it? No! (vv. 19, 20).
Obedience to God wa? paramount
with them, and it must be with every
genuinely Christian leader in the
Church. Nothing else will do, nor
will it have the blessing and approval
of God.

Services Need More
WAVES and SPARS
After tahulaing he past, month's reemit
lag results for WAVES and
SPARS in South Carolina. Lieut. Commander
Dan Henry, head of navy recruiting
for this state, strongly urges
all young women who ran qualify, to
redodleate themselves to the cause
for which all America is today fighting,
and rally to the Navy and Coast
(iuard's urgent appeal for volunteers
to serve as WAVES or STARS.
"It appears that the majority-of the
women in thlH state fall to take the
women*' auxiliary of the various services
serlodsly," Commander Henry
stated. "Wo want to correct this now.
The women who are today serving
with WAVES and SPARS are performing
a magnificent job. They are
filling jobs formerly held by trained
navy men on shore duty, thereby roreleaslng
hundreds of such men for
combat duty against our common
enemy. There are thousands more
men to he released, and we cannot
win this war as fast and decisively
as planned untfl we replace these men
with women botwoon 20 and 35 years
of age."
It wus pointed out by the recruiting
director, that special Women's Civilian
committees have been appointed
throughout the stato to aid in the
drive for more WAVES and SPARS,
but, that a greater uumber of applicants
must be recruited before these
committees can work effectively.
Commander Henry added, "Other
sates in this area are enlisting vast
numbers of WAVES and SPARS,
while we here in South Carolina have
not yet awakened to1 the full Importance
of the Job at hand. We must
prove to ourselves and others that
South Carolina's women are Just as
patriotic and eager to do a Job well
as women In other states of the nation."
Ensign Katherine Adams and Ensign
Margaret M. Jarvls are WAVE Interviewing
Officers at the Naval Officer
Procurement headquarters In Columbia
and Charleston respectively, while
WAVES-SPARS applications are avallable
at regular navy recruiting
