HORACE E. DELISSER
Tribute to Chas. F. Egan
I5y Mrs. Mary A. Lucey
God called him when his happy
heart,
Had gained its fond desire,
Renewing vows he made one
140) 1.
Before God's sacred fire.
Solicitude, he gave to her
Who joined with him that day
To take the vows that bound
them both
He made life ever gay.
There may be other men as kind.
But we have yet to see
A smile comparable to his
In affability.
Dependability, we knew.
Was such a part of him
That never once we'd fret last he
Treat duty as a whim.
He gave back (o God the voice
Haimoneous and true
That he was g l f t e J with; he sans.
At services 'years through.
He held aloft, the torch of f a i t h
So others too might see
The peace and wondrous beauiy
in
His Catholicity.
Among the many qualities
That God has given men,
Good nature i.s a favorite
Since social life began.
Possessing this, he
warmth
With every soul he knew,
And even casual passers by
Plucked friendship where it
grew.
Fond family ties brought true
content;
While happiness supreme
Reigned in his soul when all
was well
With each one, how he'd beam!
Sleep well, come true Knight,
our one desire.
For Judgment Day is this,
That we'll be destined as you are
To win Eternal bliss!

Many Veterans Fail
To Apply For Medals
The following information for the
benefit of veterans i.s provided by
the New York State Divison of
Veterans' Affairs:
Many veterans, entitled to decor-ations
for service, have not made
application for medals which have
I'cen made available, such as:
American Defense Medal - - for
service between Sept. 8. 1939 and
Dec. 7, 1941;
World War II Victory Medal —
for service between Dec. 7, 1941
and Dec. 31, 1946;
Merchant Marine Victory Medal
for service between Dec. 7, 1941
ind Sept. 3. 1945;
New York State Conspicuous
Service Cross—for residents of New
York State who were cited and
are eligible for various service
decorations;
Bronze Stars for Combat Awards
—for veterans who In the period
between Pearl Harbor and V-J Day
were cited tor tlielr part in jgrounc
combat. _cambat> _Infantry or. Cora
bat Medical Badges are general!
sufficient evidence to n man's cJnJm
for the medal.
There is no need for veteran,
to rush into the purchase of homes
farms or businesses in order to
obtain the1 loan guarantee pro-visions
of the G.I. Bill. Veterans
lave until July 25-,' 1957 to utilize
his credit and there i.s a prob-ability
that costs will become more

period.

Century's 'SAT-R-DAY CAMPS'
Provide Ideal Shows for Kiddies
\Yitli llir nri-<! lor motion p i c t u r e rnU-ilainmenl prepared cxrlu-
&ivcl\ fur teen agrrh and \ounfzer children becoming increasingly
apparent,'. Century Theatres has announced a precedent-establishing
program which provides an answer^""
to the problem and promises to
huve far-reaching effects on the
nation's moviCigjuins younger set.
Each'Saturday from noon until
5 P.M:, has been designated by
five Century theatres* the Patio
and Mayfair in Brooklyn and the
Sunnyside, Floral and Prccpori on
Long Island), as Century's "SAT-R-
DAY CAMPS." Motion pictures
which have been approved - for
children by a special screening
committee will be -shown and. in
addition, there will be audience
participation stage activities'super-vised
by a "camp councillor," an
accredited teacher.
These activities, In addition to
such things as puppet and animal
shows, will, feature spelling bees,
community sings and other educa-tional
as w;ell as recreational
games.
"The establishment of the SAT-R-
DAY CAMPS," according to
Fred J. Schwartz, vice-president of
the Century organization, "fills 'a
long-felt need, by making it pos-sible
for parents to send their
children to the movies without the
slightest qualms as to the type of
entertainment they'll witness.
"Everyone is aware that there
are many mo! ion pictures made
solely for adult consumption which,
because they are shown at. .neigh-borhood
houses, become regular
screen fare for youngsters. Our
programs correct this long-neglect-ed
situation by eliminating, through
the special screening committee,
any picture, be it a feature, short
.subject. cartoon or newsreel.
deemed unsuitable for children,
"To affirm .Century's belief in
the need for and the 'desirability
of such a program, we are main-taining
the same prices as for
regular shows despite the fact that
the project will considerable in-crease
expenses at the theatres in-volved.
This is- being done." Mr.
Schwartz concluded, "to make the
'SAT-R-DAY CAMPS' available to
a wide community audience."
A unique feature of the program
will be the sale of a book of tickets,
which not only will save the price
of one admission, but will make it
unnecessary for children to carry
money to the theatre. At the same
time, the Economy Young Folks

will assure parents that if their
