This is from your fellow workers, men whp have known you, men who will always remember you. We have lost a brother, a son and a father. Yet we shall not pity you. We shall envy you, for Leonard, you are in the garden of paradise. Mr. Owen, you are not dead, but you have gone to sleep only to wake and find a new world. A world more intoxicating than the world you have left behind. It is you who should pity us, the remaining whom you have left behind. We will die a thousand deaths before we, too, can rest in the beautiful garden of para dise which you have invaled before US. Leonard, you are a Martyr, Leon ard you have been a brother to all those with years equal to your own. You have suffered their pains and endured their troubles as the years have gone by. Leonard, you have been a son r1’ your elders. You have assisted them trough the rough and choppy sea of life. You have watched over your elders. We only know too well that your youth was your elders’ light through their darkest hours. Leonard, you have been a father to each youth in which you came in con tact. The younger set of your pro fession are indebted to you. Your teachings have led them to success and manhood. Mr. Owen, you are deep in the heart of these young men Your friendship was like the light of day. The light of day that only could be blackened out by the dark ness of the night, only to return as the hours pass to change night again to day. As I read this, tears are in my heart. Let you not misunderstand my tears, for they are of a joyous nature. Tears for one who has tri umphed in a battle of chaos. You have won your battle on this earth. Dear Leonard, have patience with us: see us through this rebel lious sea of life, and we, too, will soon join in your everlasting para dise. Rest peacefully in your garden, Fleetwood, because your garden is the goal of all mankind. Our days may turn to weeks, our weeks may turn to months, and our months may turn to years, but each week, each month, and each year will bring a lingering memory of your kindness and your greatness, Leonard Fleetwood Owen.

USO NEWS ° Q-O-- Q LARGER QUARTERS NEEDED The most pressing need at the 24th Street USO Club, at present and the one which we hope will be met in the near future, is larger quarters. The increased load of sailors and soldiers visiting the club make it imperative that something be done about this matter. The USO Regional Office and the Federal Security Agency are hard at work and we can expect en couraging results in a very short time. It is hoped that a suitable facility will be acquired. However should such be acquired immediately there , would still be a delay or some mon ths for renovations. This means tha* the present site must be used during the summer months. To alleviate this situation plans are underway to provide outside facilities near the club. It is hoped that the lot adjoint to the club can be con verted into a pleasant spot for danc ing and other activities. It is also hoped that the park across the street I from the club can be cleaned up and ! the tennis courts made available to the service men. ■kirk DONATIONS.
