TO OUR FIGHTING PADRES.
We admired the moral courage and conviction of the padres who . made bold to tell the men just where they stood with themselves. “ Play the man ” is a maxim which we would do well to, remember^ — and it certainly would relieve the congestion in A deck after leave. * * * :
Ever since they came aboard our padres have been a source of inspiration to us. Their manly qualities and spirit of service have won universal respect and admiration. * . * A * *
The padres job is a tough one. It will help if we remember that they are here to help us and to strengthen our moral fibre' —to keep us fit in every sense' —and unless we are fit we cannot hope to be good soldiers.
