Excerpt from The Chaplain and the War So, man's extremity is God's opportunity. The hunger and thirst for the living God is an impressive and triumphant fact. When France entered on the war she had no chap lains attached either to Navy or Army. The Administration made no provision for the religious aspirations of her fighting men. But the significant fact is that before the campaign was four months old, the appeal for Padres was so strong that it had to be met. The Comtesse de Courson is author ity for the statement that to-day France has over twenty thousand priests serving in various capacities, and that all her battleships and armies have their chaplains.

Excerpt from War Memories of an Army Chaplain Many books about the American Civil War have been written to show the movements of the armies and the characteristics of personal commanders. Little, however, has been written to show the thoughts and feelings of the soldier in active army service.

Excerpt from Memoirs of Chaplain Life This little book embraces the experience of three years spent in active service during the great Civil War. The subject deserves an abler pen, more con Sideration and time than I can bestow upon it. I have written these pages in hours, and half-hours, snatched from my Official duties, which frequently demanded my attention, and SO engrossed my thoughts that it became difficult to bring them back to the work on hand.

Excerpt from The Chaplain, Vol. 15: February, 1958 After World War II and Korea, we have discovered what the gospel is. Continental theology has helped us here. At least, said he, the eastern seaboard is open to Continental theology. But the laity do not yet see life as needing the atoning work of God to deliver us from dai monic powers.

Excerpt from The Chaplain, Vol. 3: January, 1946 So far as the United States delegation to Lon don is concerned, we are determined to preserve in peace the unity we had in war and to apply the lesson we have so pain 'fully learned, that peace is indi visible.

Excerpt from The Chaplain, Vol. 21: December, 1964 Another form of amusement that came within the chaplain's area of responsibility was gambling. It was labeled as the foundation of evil and the source of ruin. The number of references to gaming in the docu ments of the time indicate that it was a widespread vice, perhaps even more so than drinking. Since the troops seldom got paid on time and, more often than not, never got paid at all - one cannot help wondering what they gambled with.

Excerpt from War Pictures: Experiences and Observations of a Chaplain in the U. S. Army, in the War of the Southern Rebellion The War of the Southern Rebellion is destined to create a Literature of its own. Its history will be written by many hands, while its incidents and leading characteristics, above all the principles involved in it, will supply themes for discussion for a long time to come. The material for all reliable accounts of this great struggle must be furnished, in no small degree, by the testimony of eye - witnesses. In that view, I flatter myself that what I here offer to the public will have some value as contributions to the history hereafter to be written.

Excerpt from The Chaplain, Vol. 24: March April, 1967 A most important ingredient in the training of a chaplain is that of learning to learn. Mere exposure to the sources of knowledge will not suffice. The learning process involves study, in struction, observation, and experience but many are subjected to all these but do not learn. Learning how to learn is a process of self-discipline involving the whole person including his interest, aptitudes, attitudes, and commitments.
