It is like a penny in two million dollars, or one unripened cherry on a cherry tree, or a star in the sky, each of which is a part of a whole. These parts, the penny, the unripened cherry and the star combine with others to make the whole, such as I as a student, combine with other students to form a school, which in turn, combines with other schools to form a free and responsible education system which combines with the political, social, economical, and, religious systems to form the Democracy of America.

LET'S LOOK AT THE * & RECORDS * 25 V BY LINDA MORRIS CapL Jane Carson of Greenville, S.C., Army Nurse Corps counsellor for the State of New Jersey, presented a recording of song-writer Gladys Shelley's A Nurse in the U. S. Army, recorded by Connie Francis on the MGM record label to Hon. Hubert H. Humphrey, vice president, at the New Jersey State Fair in Trenton, N.J. A Nurse in the U.S. Army was written by Gladys Shelley, one of America's top women songwriters, as a public service to recruit more nurses into the U.S. Army and also to enhance the morale of those nurses already serving in the army. " If my song will help the U. S. Army Nurse Corps in any way, then I shall have achieved my goal," explains Miss Shelley who was prompted to write the song when she became aware of dire shortage of nurses in the army, particularly with caring for the sick and wounded men in Viet Nam . . . The army and Army Nurse Corps has already presented Miss Shelley with commendations and awards for her inspiring song, which is being carried over the nation's airwaves through the Connie Francis MGM recording of A Nurse in the U. S. Army. Ray Pillow, recently acclaimed as the most promising new country and western vocalist of 1966 at the Nashville convention, joins Jean Shepard for an album that contains their recent hit, I'll Take the Dog -- which is the album title -- and 11 other C and W tunes . . .
