Since there has al ready been a demand for the tick ets, it is wise to put your reserva tion in early by calling Mrs. Charles Hunt at Wy. 2978 J or by calling Mrs. G. A. Taber at Wy. 0485-J. While there will be the same number of lectures as last year, the lecture board feels they are offer ing the people of Wyandotte and the Downriver area a more varied and if possible a better program than last year. Dr. Daniel Polling, editor of the Christian Union and president of the World’s Christian Endeavor Union will be the opening speaker on October 25. His subject, “The Spiritual Aspects of the War,” is one he is well qualified to speak on. He was a Chaplain in the first World War and has made numer ous trips to the various battlefronts since 1941. He is familiar with the personal loss that many of us have felt during this war, since his son, was one of the four chaplains who gave up their life jackets so that four soldiers might live when their ship was sinking in the Atlantic. He brings a message which he has learned from the soldiers in fox holes. He has an article in the May Readers Digest. On November 29 Henry Hedges, recently Senior Civil Engineer with the First Construction Battalion of the Sea Bees will present natural color movies of the Island of Bora Bora in the Southwest Pacific. Mr. Hedges was on the island with his wife before the American sailors arrived. They were the only white people there. He relates in a most fascinating manner, the character istics of the natives before the Americans came and their reactions to the sailors. With unbelievably beautiful pictures Mr. Hedges brings his audience a robust sense of humor and a gift of description. Probably the most widely known of the five speakers is Drew Pear son who will give a sample of Washington Merry-Go-Round on January 17. Because of his syndi cated newspaper column, which ap pears in the Detroit Free Press and his Sunday evening newscast and predictions on tne Blue Network everyone has at least heard of him. His candid stories of political news are fearless and unbiased and pre sented straight from the shoulder. He has a varied background of ex periences having been a teacher, world traveler, newspaperman, author and lecturer. He is co-author of the books “Washington Merry- Go-Round” and “Nine Old Men ” Nora Wain will come to Wyan dotte on February 21. Her subject “Revival of Germany” should con tain the latest available informa tion on the subject since she is in Germany at the present time and plans to stay there until January when she will begin a very limited tour of fifty lectures throughout the United States. She w r as sent to Germany by the Atlantic Monthly to write a factual account of the German people following allied vic tories. In 1939 following four years of residence in Germany Miss Wain wrote the best seller “Reaching for the Stars” and previous to that after twelve years in China, she wrote “House of Exile”, alao a best seller. The final lecture which will be March 28 is not only different from the other four of the series but is different from anything which the lecture series sas so far presented. Suzanne Silvercruys, the Belgium born sculptor and lecturer will be the speaker. Her subject, “Wake Up and Live” will be illustrated on the with the modeling of a por trait or figure as she talks. This is not the usual art lecture but is a sharing of her skill and philosophy of life and her intimate anecdotes of famous people. She is the wife of an American and has been a citi zen for many years.
