THE MILITARY CHAPLAINS ASSOCIATION
NATIONAL CONVENTION AT ANNAPOLIS, APRIL 26-28
Our photograph shows the dome of the chapel, where many of the
meetings will be held. Carvel Hall, central hotel for the convention,is one half block away, hidden in the trees. The building on the edge of the water is Bancroft Hall, the largest dormitory in the world. The MCA recalls that it is named after a clergyman, the Rev. George Bancroft,who started the Naval Academy when he was Secretary of the Navy. Schoolmaster, Historian, Ambassador to Germany and England, Horticulturist,who developed the American Beauty Rose, the Rev. George Bancroft symbolizes the versatility of the ministry.
First meeting of the Convention: dinner, Tuesday, 26 April.
Last meeting: lunch, Thursday, 28 April.
Entire Cost (except breakfasts):
At Carvel Hall $25. (2 in room, private bath) At Carvel Hall 23. (2 in room, running water)
At Naval Academy Hospital $16. (no families)
Private arrangements may be made at many fine motels, boarding houses, Rectories, etc. in Annapolis.
Write 1710 16th St., N.W., Washington 9, D.C., enclosing $3. for Carvel Hall reservation, or $16. for Hospital reservation. Balance payable upon arrival. Cancellation and complete refund cheerfully made until April 15.

An appeal has been made to the Chiefs of Chaplains of the three services to grant points to Reservists attending the convention.




PERPETUAL MEMBERS
This month we proudly announce three new Perpetual Members:
Dr. Alfred Carpenter is a native of the West; a graduate of Southwestern Seminary. He held pastorates in Oklahoma and Texas, and was three years Superintendent of Missions in Panama, after which he was with the Board two years in the States. Dr. Carpenter was for seven years pastor at First Baptist Church, Blytheville, Arkansas before coming to the Board as Superintendent of Baptist Chaplains.
On a recent itinerary which circled the globe he had opportunity to view the work of the Southern Baptist Chaplains at first hand in the forward areas.
A chaplain in both world wars, on the staffs of both General Eisenhower and General MacArthur, holder of the Legion of Merit, Chief of Army Chaplains, 1949 1952, Major General Roy H. Parker is now on the faculty of William Jewell College in Missouri.
He represents all that is best in the regular chaplain who gives a lifetime of service to men in uniform.
Monsignor Edward R. Martin
The third Perpetual Member for this month, despite urging, will allow us to write nothing about him but his name as "one who has not forgotten."
The MCA is proud and grateful for the encouragement of these Perpetual Members.

------------------------------------------------------------------------ROA CHAPLAIN OF THE YEAR
The Reserve Officers Association chose as Chaplain of the Year, Col. John K. Connelly, one of our MCA members. Fr. Connelly was appointed a chaplain in 1935 and saw action in Pearl Harbor in 1941, the Pacific Theatre, and Korea. He is now in Germany. In Seoul he established a Retreat Center for men of all denominations; in Fort Dix, New Jersey, he started "Clergy Day" to foster good relations between civilian and military clergy.
In 1952, he was awarded the Soldier's Medal for rescuing a deranged soldier who threatened to leap from a water tower at Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania.
AND STILL HE SPEAKS
Chaplain Edward L. R. Elson,
immediate past President of MCA, has written a book on the words of the Risen Christ, entitled
And Still He Speaks
(Revell, $2.50)
It is a small devotional book, designed for the layman, expressing persuasively the Christian faith in the resurrection and its relation to every-day living.

CONTACT
The word "contact" is in disfavor with purists, who frown on such usages as "Wnill you contact him?" However, these verses in the MaryKnoll Magazine make it a good word for any chaplain:
WE MEET THEM ALL DAY LONG
Contact work begins It is rooted in love
as a state of mind. of others,
It is an attitude for their sake and God's.
of attention to souls. The contact attitude
It is conditioned on a certain does not seek advantage in any way;
freedom from preoccupation whether for self-glory or popularity;
with the picayune details whether for fame or reputation,
of daily routine, reward or satisfaction.
It calmly focuses The contact attitude
on the deeper values of life, aims solely at the glory of God
such as are linked and the good of others.
with the well-being of souls.
Souls that we meet -all day long,.
before and behind, The contact spirit
to the right and to the left, is not a scattering state of mind,
here, there and all around us. not a worldly one.
The contact attitude Rather, it is the sign
tends outwardly. of deep spirituality.
It is all otherly, It is the flowering
wholly forgetful of self. of Christian devotion.
- Sr. M. Marcelline, O.P.
