| "THE OLD GRAY" By E. I'hiUp Ellis ooooo c :*?; . J? WERE 1 A SOLDIER V? It I could be qualified as an ^ American soldier to light in this bloody war that's being waged all over the world today, I would * tiiat consecrate myself to God. We have some enlisted men in the , \ service Unlay who are very discreet and seem to be God fearing. ' "r? able to observe are just out foi a Big Time, which is damaging . to the success of the war. Strange to say that America is a chris1 tian country but some of its 1- drafted men have?no more?eon- .Germans and Italians. They arc half drunk one part of the time when they are in the streets, ami ' 06 city oustis, and instead of go~f?. in j?to church - on?Sundays they . frequent all of the alleys and , dives of the cities looking foi what they call a "big time." They can be seen all times with a bunch of women many of whom don't worth their names. A veiy foolish saying is that a soldier's life is rough, and they endeavor to make the saying true. Some . -time ago several ministers ami I K were on a train with any numbcr of soldiers,?ami?they tursed and drank whiskey before ls as though we were gangsters. Some women were on board, but the. soldiers cared nothing for- them. 1 notice^ that the theatres and USO Centers are crowded with them, and I am wondering ,what l~t time they attend religious services with their chaplaais. I have no '* idea of being living when this - war ends. Fof sin is the cause of it, and the people are not getting a b??. hettor- The rich want ' the war to close so they can continue to accumulate. The strong want it to stop so that they may continue to oppress the weak. And so far as this talk of freetlom it has no reference to Negroes under the sun. But we must all fight, for if this countiy loses, it will l? the beginning of the judgment in this world upon every tribe and nation, kindred and pcow pie. To be continued.
