There is an early curfew and little recreation, says the dis- patch. An article by Richard W. John- son, veteran United Press corres- pondent, published in the \Stars and Stripes,\ also forwarded by Sergeant Watson, looks upon the fighting in North China and Man- churia as the beginning of a third world war.

Until we were brought face to face with the great importance of a hospital and trained nursing care talked about it but never thought too ser- lously about it. Cuba Hospital needs help.\ Nur- ses are working 15 or more hours a day in some cases. not enough nurses and yet the hos- pital has 27 patients today of which eight come from Friendship. Help is badly needed and if any- one in any way can assist in eas- ing this shortage they will be giv- ing to all a Christmas gift that is almost priceless. _| Cuba Hospital and trained care never really hit home until we are in trouble and we know today what it really means to have need for both that hospital and that trained most folks-had Even one day of service or a few days of service will mean a great deal to those who find themselves forced to seek hospital care. Such service can be a Christmas; gift that in the end will fulfill both ; the joy of giving and the joy of ; \receiving. Have We Caught On Yet?

Next month will mark another chapter in - American generosity when the second nationwide cloth- ing collection for overseas relief begins here. The Christmas ann- versary is a good time to begin to plan on what we can give to the UNRRA for the destitute, homeless and looted people who are in des- perate need of clothing. We like to think that the res- dents of this community are not only \representative\ Americans but a little above average when it comes to opening their hearts for the less fortunate. The first cloth- ing drive here netted a quota above the one assigned to this town, and we are confident the second drive will prove even more successful.
