Newsboys Day Today is National Newsboys Day and it is well, we think, to pause and give a thought to the boys who make it possible for your Times to be on your doorstep each daycome rain or shine. These youngsters are Sullivan's coming business men and leaders and they are learning to think and act business how as they deliver their papers just as so many of today's greatest men started out years ago. They are learning responsibility and how to meet the public, how to satisfy customers and how to make their collections meet their books on papers they take on their routes. Sometimes it's pretty hard on them.' These freezing aays that will be upon us soon are days that newsboys are forced to. brave the elements in order that "the customer is satisfied" and. too. few persons are ready with a pat on the back for them when day after day the newsboy brings them their Times'. - ,-, Tliey are youngersnow but . they are the ones who Will be.tready in a fejv years, to"-shoulder the responsibilities of community leadl&'Ship and even: higher jobs. 'Sometimes they: may'miss a customer accidentally but usually1 he's the first to try addbrrect such an occurrence wherein lies one of the se'craSiiof success in life. ,, The Thn-et-aaproud of its newsboys and is proud of the ecS$ W-y'gmy--' of former Times newsboys who are now hoMig t rjegs1l)ilities in Sullivan county and the state.

DELEGATES ATTENDING the 28th National American Legion convention in San Francisco heard their former commanders and the U. S. secretary of war in a series of addresses that brought the battle for peace to the fore. Left to right, the speakers shown are: Gen. Omar N. Bradley, veterans' administrator, who accused the Legion's commander, John Stelle of Illinois, of hampering the veterans' program; Secretary Robert Patterson, who revealed a new Army draft plan calling for a regular army of 1,000,000 men; Gen. Jonathan M. Wainwright, who struck back at critics of the Army "caste system"; and Adm. William F. Halsey, Jr., who attacked "isolationism and radical disarmament" as defeating the goal for which the military won the war peace. (International Soundphoto)

- We advanced cautiously toward the bishop's house NOT without some trepidation, Marcus and I drove with Colonel Cornelius through dimly-lighted Antioch toward the house of the bishop on the Street of the Biver. We knew now that Cornelius was sympathetic with the Christians we had come to ridicule arid our own feelings toward them were becoming mixed. At the Fisherman's Tavern, we alighted from the colonel's vehicle. "We'll walk the rest of the way," Cornelius said. "The distance is not great." We advanced cautiously over the uneven paving stones toward the bishop's house. I saw a lighted oil cresset above a portal and then the colonel knocked softly. J "Good evening," a soft voice said as the door swung
open. I decided trie woman who smiled a welcome must

' "Uncle Theo is in the sacristy of the church," she told the colonel after Marcus and I had been introduced. "We will wait in the library for him." When we were seated. Alee told Marcus, "I have read your poem about princes and paupers having the same bed in death." "What did you think of its philosophy?" "None too logical. You imply that death is final.." The remark touched off a discussion of the Christian belief in life after death and complete justice. Marcus and I were both baffled and moved at her logic. Then, Ignatius, bishop of Antioch, entered. He was a small man but virile and dynamic. "Welcome, friendly

"Here is a cup," the bishop told us. .; ' enemies," he said. "Gaius Cornelius has told me all about you." The bishop was pleasant but firm in condemning our theater plan against his cult and his face darkened when the name of Cynthia Mamuta was mentioned. "She is the child of Satan," he said. "Let me show you something." He left the room and came back with the silver chalice which we knew Cynthia planned to seize. "Here is a cup," he said, "which the actress' grandfather wrought. He gave it to the church which she deserted." Patiently, he explained to us the meaning of a fine fretwork about the chalice, symbolic of Christianity. We were entranced by the story of hope for mankind. "There," he concluded, "I have taught you some of the things you are to ridicule. What a mission for two strong men!" . (Continued tomorrow).
