the front for several miles, with
out contacting any Germans.

FEBRUARY IS
A MONTH OF
BROTHERHOOD
' I
_
February is Brotherhood j
Month in the churches of the!
United States.
While every month in the
church is Brotherhood Month,
February is set aside as the time
to emphasize this great Christian
fact. The fact that we have one
God and Father of us all and in
the sight of God, we, the people
of the earth are one family, one
brotherhood.
Many things that are happen
ing in the world today tend to
help us keep faith in brother
hood.
Take for example the incident
of the four chaplains who gave
their lives for the men on the
transport SS. Dorchester that
torpedoed off Greenland in Feb
ruary, 1943.
Two of th^se chaplains were
protestant,, one Catholic, and one
a Jew. There were no questions
asked about their faith or the
faith of the men to which they
gave their life-jackets.
According to affidavits of the
Dorchester survivors, the four
chaplains went among troops on
the torpedoed transport calming

As the ship sank, the four
