It was around Christmas time that I met Mrs. S. A. Meckel, wife of the pastor of the Mayflower Community church out on Diamond Lake Road. We talked about her husband, now a chaplain with our armies in Belgium.

I told her that some of my most interesting mail has come from chaplains overseas and that if she ever got a letter from her husband with something suitable for publication that I'd like very much to see it. The letter has come, hut it's more than a letter. It's an article written especially for This Corner. If you have to miss church tomorrow, here's a sermon as powerful as any you might hear if i i IT WAS an afternoon of tragedy in the little Belgian village where we were temporarily stationed. There was nothing strange about that most afternoons are "afternoons of tragedy" in these little villages which have felt the endless see-saw and tug-of-war for the past four years.

The tragedy seems the greater, standing pathetically against the nun-participation of the peoples of these little countries, who have been helplessly caught in this hitter struggle MAKIXKS SOMEWIIKRE IX THE PACIFIC are looking over a copy of the Minneapolis Star-Journal and deciding what they'd do if they had a 48-hour liberty pass to spend in Minneapolis.

My driver and I had just returned from a four of duty. Suddenly, as we drove into the narrow streets of the village, we heard the terrific explosion and felt the hurricane percussion which meant just one thing a rocket bomb had landed in the village!

I AS I TI'RNED away from the tragic scene I saw a picture which had been blasted from its frame lying partially buried beneath the plaster at my feet. Almost unconsciously I stooped to look at it.

I saw the picture of a baby sleeping in its cradle, and above it an angel hovering with outspread wings. In my childhood home I had often seen that same picture. I had often fallen asleep with its image in my mind, and the assurance of God's protective love deep in my heart.

IIAI.I.OKAN Mar-Jtiuriial rolltiial Wrllrr Chances of the 18-year-olds' vote bill seemed hardly worth a nickel today after the mauling it received in the state house of representatives Friday. The measure is still alive, but was given a setback when returned to the elections committee that had oncp reported it favorably to the house. It may fmp back from committee (at leat Chairman Henry Rines, Mora, said it would) hut probably with an unfavorable report.

And 1he house has a habit of backing up its committees. With adoption of an unfavorable report the bill would be dead.

The matter of a quorum, and the rights of a quorum are involved, too. Under the general rule a majority of a committee constitutes a quorum, that is a sufficient number to transact business.

Hut when they split almost evenly, there really was only one more than third Hi of 15) of the inemlicrsliip putting an OK nn the hill. Dunn saiil this wasn't enough.

There will he a lot fewer hills considered on the floor of the nouse, it that principle is now es- lablished. The melee started when Ktnes announced a majority of the committee now wanted the lS-year bill hack so opponents could he heard. As always is the result in a move of this sort, this brought loud protests from the authors of Ihe measure. Otto Clark, Osakis. and Curtiss Olson, Roseau.

They charged the design was to kill the mens- ure. On Ihe showdown, the vote stood B2 to 33 for sending the hill hark and Speaker Lawrence M. Hall ruled the motion carried.

He showed that the rules idid seem to conflict, showed the speaker holding the fi2 votes needed to send he a close study was right in all that were bill back to committee. However, he asked reconsideration of Ihe molion and a more positive expression. It was at this time Dunn asserted his ideas--and incidentally bucked up the majority membership so the bill was sent hack to committee this time by an emphatic 70-31 vote.

The bill merely authorizes submission to the people of a proposed constitutional amendment changing the voting age from 21 to IS.
