NEW CHEVRONS
FOR NON-COMS
New and smaller grade chevrons,
providing distinction between “com-
bat” and “non-combat” personnel.
A. FIERY fura-tce, and a lion’s
den. These are the tests to
which Sunday’s lesson will put our
hero about whom-we studied last
Sunday, this young
man Daniel. Three
friends, Shadrack,
Meshach and Abed-
nego, will ungerdo
the test of the fiery
furnace, having
been convinced by
Daniel’s example
that God is tPust-
worthy And Daniel
will spend the night
in the den of lions.
You will need to
read chapters three
through six to get the full story.
* * *
DANIEL IN THE DEN OF LIONS
npHE sixth chapter must be read
A to have an adequate background
for this study. Daniel had been
chosen as the first of three presi-
dents to rule over 120 princes who
should govern the kingdom. The
other two presidents, and the princes
could find no fault in this Hebrew,
save that he believed and observed
the law of his God. So, they con-
spired against him by persuading
the king to issue a decree that- no
person in the kingdom was to make
a petition to any God or man for 30
days, save to the king, on the pen-
alty of being cast into the den of
lions. This decree was issued by
Darius, and Daniel’s enemies re-
ported to Darius that Daniel was
opening his window three times a
day, praying to his God. Darius
was greatly troubled, but had to
stand by his decree, and Daniel was
cast into the den of lions. Darius
spent a sleepless night, and hurried
to the den at dawn to know about
Daniel. Daniel replied, “O king,
live for ever. My God hath sent
his angel, and hath shut the lions’
mouths, that they have not hurt
DARIUS REWARDS DANIEL
/CONVINCED that Daniel’s con-
victions had been miraculously
rewarded by God, Darius ordered
the other two presidents and the
princes, together with their wives
and children, thrown into the lions’
dens. They were all destroyed by
the lions.
Then Darius issued a decree to
all the nations and people of all lan-
guages that dwell in all the earth.
Hear this decree:
“Peace be multiplied unto you.
I make a decree, That in every do-
minion of my kingdom men tremble
and fear before the God of Daniel;
for he is the living God, and sted-
fast forever, and his kingdom that
which shall not be destroyed, and
his dominion shall be even unto the
end.” So Daniel prospered in the
reign of Darius and of Cyrus, the
Persian. , .

COURAGE TO PUT GOD FIRST
T OOK now at the other test of
-L faith—that of the three Hebrew
children, Shadrack, Meshach and
Abednego. Nebuchadnezzar, king of
Babylon, had made a golden image,
90 feet high and nine feet wide, and
set it up in the plain of Dura. On
a certain day, when he was going to
establish his state religion, he or-
dered every subject to fall down
and worship this image.
But Shadrack, Meshach and Abed-
nego refused to worship the image.
Nebuchadnezzar was furious when
he heard of their refusal. He sum-
moned them into his presence, and
warned them of their' fate if they
further refused to worship his gods.,
They answered him frankly that
they would not bow down to the
image. He ordered them thrown in-
to the fiery furnace.
They decided that death was more
honorable than apostasy. The men
who cast them into the furna.ee fell
dead!
* * *
UNSEARED AND UNSINGED!
O UT THE three Hebrew children
O walked in the flames, unseared
and unsinged! The king was as-
tounded The people were amazed.
They had witnessed what the God
of all the earth can and will do.
Then went forth the decree,
“There is no other God that can
deliver after this sort.” Thus we
have the golden text for Sunday’s
lesson:
“Be it known unto thee, O king,
that we will not serve thy gods, nor
worship the golden image which
thou hast set up.”
And what happened in the long
ago when man dared to stand up
and trust in God will happen today
and every day.

will be adopted by the Army in
July. After the changeover, it is
announced, men in combat jobs will
wear chevrons of dark blue on a
golf embroidered background (above
right), and non-combat soldiers
will wear insignia of gold on a
blue background (left).
The new emblems will be one and
three-quarters inches wide on back-
grounds two inches wide, or about
two-thirds the size of the present
style. Basically, chevrons to
be worn by each grade will be simi-
lar to those worn now by the same
grade. However, there will be no
differentiation between “technician”
and “Ivne” personnel in a given
grade except for the color of the
insignia. Those illustrated above
will be worn by non-commissioned
officers in the third grade.
Power Failure
Handicaps Show
Because of a power failure,

sent parts prepared by them for

torium

attended, was sponsored by the
C’arson County Council of Home
Demonstration Clubs for the bene-
fit of 4-H boys and girls and
consisted of piano numbers, vocal
numbers, one act plays, dances
and a style review.
One of the outstanding num-
bers was the girls chorus of
Claude High School, which sang
three selections. The style review
with music and dances of the
pencd was also well received.
Receipts for the evening
amounted to nearly §125.
