A PRAYER
O haste the day when Thou
Shalt have Thy rightful place;
When diadems shall deck Thy
Brow
As King of every race;
When righteousness shall rule,
And plough supplant the sword;
And all men join Thy praise
to swell;
Thy Kingdom come, O Lord!

Den 4 met October 12, with our
Den mother, Mrs. Wilcox. We
started our hike with Johnny
Grisham serving refreshments. We
met Den 3, three and one half
miles out in the country and hik-
ed back to our den mother homes,
it was a mystery hike. We had to
search for clues to know what to
do.
We learned what to do for snake
bites, and we had to retrieve a
bottle out of the creeK with one
clue, telling us how to get our
passport to cross the border which
was about half way.
When we reached the border
we had to say our Motto and do
our salute before we could cross
the border of Texas and Old Mex-
ico, just before crossing we all
sang "Texas."
Then our next clue was to learn
how to give artificial respiration
in case anyone needed it. Farther
on we found a target and B. B.
Rifle. Mark Seale won by shoot-
ing the bulls eye.
Our Mothers surprised us with
a weiner roast at the end of the
trail which we all enjoyed very
much. Those present were Johnny
Grisham, Rodger Willingham, Lar-
ry Hassell, John Waddell, Mark
Seale, Billy Jack Hudson, and
George White.

Charles A. Dana, famous editor
of the New York Sun, helped edu-
cate the public to want news.
The first newspaper in New
York City was named the New
York Gazette. It was started in
1725.
College Play To
Review Early
Shows Of Morgan
"Renew bygone days and come
to Jacksonville to see J. Doug
Morgan's show," said Mrs. Arch
Pearson, director.
"Masque and Wig Theatre of
Lon Morris College came into an
inheritance this summer," Mrs.
Pearson explained. Mrs. Morgan
left all her tent show equipment
to Lon Morris College.
Mrs. Pearson hit upon the idea
of reviewing one of the old scripts
and playing the show in the same
manner of J. Doug Morgan in the
20's and 30's. With this idea in
mind, Masque and Wig Theatre
went to work and is offering a
civic production October 21st
through 24th, according to Mrs.
Pearson.
The play "Pure as the Driven
Snow" is a "mellerdrammer" with
orchestra and big time vaudeville
between acts.
"A 40 x 80 tent rented from
Dallas will house the production
which will be on college avenue
on the vacant lot next to the Pres-
ident's house," said Mrs. Pearson.
Tickets will be: adults, 50c stu-
dents 25c. An additional cost of
25c is for reserved seats.
CARD OF THANKS
I'd like to take this opportunity
to thank all of my friends for be-
ing so nice to me during my stay
in the hospital.
Thanks for all the lovely flow-
ers and other gifts I received.
Thanks again,
Morris Goff.
