Fames Ain s each Friday the stars mad Stripe Oran daily will print a message written by a chaplain of this area. This is another in a series what kind of Steward am chaplain Karl Schleede cd. C., a s. Army i there was a certain Rich Man who had a Steward a Are the opening words of the gospel for the eighth sunday after Trinity and with these words our Savior tells us the subject of the lesson for the Day. We must remember that a Steward is not simply a business Man but a business Man operating some other persons property. Each Christian is a Steward for it is part of his Faith to confess that All he is All he has belongs to almighty god. This includes not Only his material possessions but his very life and soul. As members of our military forces every one of us has certain accountability toward our government and there is a practical application in this parable for every officer and Man in our army. Brer since we have had an army it has been necessary to adopt regulations which a Down not Only that we Are accountable but also to Naim the fines and punishments that Are meted out to those who rtt Bryc to Kef responsibility and Are poor stewards of those material things Broadway done to look now but is the suit coming to North Africa. Seen about town were a dozen or so French dandies whose Reat pleats were strongly reminiscent of the now frowned upon strictly american style. And to you who still appreciate the Cartier things in life take another look at the Grande Galerie do Art Pasteur 5 Rue Alsace Lorraine. Jean Gabriel Domergue the famous French Painter has a half dozen new pictures of his specially parisian women. And very pretty they Are too. And at the arc it s Hail  Farewell to Vivian Acord who goes to Algiers and Points East and Welcome to town Kay Bateman. Who hails from a town called. Dallas in a state called Quot a As. And speaking of Texas. Jerry Wilke in the Quot state room reports 14 visitors from Austin in three Days. What is this a Lone Star convention. A a tis rumoured around can Astel that 500 Waco a Are soon to be quartered there. Remember we said rumoured. And is it True what we hear about Canas tel i ricers  restricted. By the Way who Are those two new meets at a local pm Camp who have the place jumping with activity. T. Even italian generals work and like it. And today sees the hanging of the Quot open for business sign of the Only Arab shoe Shine boy in town who is fully equipped to handle White shoes. He a septic up his stand in front of the Allied club. Voting dear editor i read with interest the news item Date line August 19, Quot opposition to overseas vote and read with further interest Quot the same argument used in the recent successful Light against the anti poll tax Bill is that the Mil is unconstitutional in that it interfere a with a states rights to determine the voting qualifications of its  a Isnit it a pity that our being overseas interferes with our voting qualifications. If we Are not fully qualified to vote for our fur Ture then who is. This next election will determine the future for members of the aimed forces. It seems that not Only should we be entitled to vote a tic is the privilege of every american citizen., despite what the poll tax congressmen think but we should be encouraged to vote. A. It brings to a mind a few lines from a song a we March into the storm ahead confident for to us belongs the  we overseas have the right to Mold that future and Only through the democratic method of voting can we voice our opinion. Give us that Opportunity that is rightfully ours. Would it be possible to take a poll to see what the rest of the boys and our Sisters in Aims think Jack Rosenfeld Datebook dear editor As a Reader of the stars and stripes i would like to make a suggestion Why not run the Oran Datebook in the saturday edition and let that information suffice for the week the space ordinarily taken up by this feature can be used from monday to Friday for the Pup Terc poets or mail Call or More news. A pfc. Francesco Btu Ona the saturday edition of the stars and Snen is published in Algiers. While the Oran daily edition is published in Oran. Due to the time and. Distance involved it would be impractical to confine the Datcy of to the saturday edition since changes Aru made in to every Day. In necessity warrants the Datebook Wutti be dropped.1 a week in the future Lor two Days editor. Contest play dear editor / \ will you please answer the following questions 1. Is the stars and stripes play contest open to commissioned officers 2. When is the closing Date of the contest 3. What topics Are wanted for the plays answer to these will be greatly appreciated. A hopeful playwright 1. Yes. The contest is open to All enlisted men and commissioned officers in the u. 8. Armed Force. X september 13. 1m3. 3. The preferred Topi is the present War. However other topics Are . Oran Datebook placed in their Core. We As Somers Are furnished with clothing food arms and transportation by our government the Christian Soldier knows he is to use and not abuse that which is furnished to him. He realizes that in Many cases at great oust and through dangerous sea lanes All material has been brought Here to North Africa. He readies this when he stops to consider but like any other human being he does not always Stop and think or he is carried along with Tif who wantonly carelessly indifferently ruin for further usf1 splendid Flag hug of n Fogo Cutsy to forget the rest Ami it could Only happen Here. A sign in the Broadhurst theater now housing Quot party to bed a reads any gentleman requiring aspirin or a Carbonate of soda please see the attendant in the Imd Tes powder room.

Every unjust and poor Rte Waid puts that Day off further by wasting that which is Given to him to use in the fray. Every Man and officer who does not keep his equipment in the Best of condition hampers our War Effort. Every Man and officer who wastes food who does not Core for his clothing properly does not keep the Faith with those at Home. Every Man and officer who whether deliberately or carelessly wrecks transportation is a poor Steward and will in no Wise escape punishment while at the same time bringing Comfort to our enemies. It is Post time that every Christian be reminded that his religion is not Only a heavenly religion but also has practical application on Earth for him no matter in what occupation he finds himself. A Christian Soldier Steward is the greatest Force in our army. He knows his responsibility to god and country. God keep him so and increase his numbers.
