'ALONE GOD
Gunfire it shattering the air below the enemy objective is only a few mo
ments away. A turmoil of thoughts follow each other within a lone American
boy's mind. They're distinct and sure. They've been nurtured all his life in the ,
' unclouded atmosphere of Tightness and decency. In the midst of roaring motors
and tense anticipation of hair-breadth escape, the boy's eyes are calm, his hands
unfaltering in performance. He feels strangely at peace. It is Christmas night. '
The remembrance of past joys on this beloved anniversary are engraved for
ever in his heart And now, at this important life-or-death moment, they have a
reassuring effect. The belief in his iiopes arises from his strengthened faith.
More than ever before in his life, he is "alone with God." And his increased
power growing out of his great faith is such that no enemy can vanquish!
We, safe in our gay, Christmas-cheered homes, can match our faith to his.
We MUST do that, or deny loyalty to the freedoms for which he's fighting. We
MUST and WILL buy War Bonds and MORE WAR BONDS until Victory.
