Scope and content
In June of 1942, soldiers who spent the Saturday night at the Mason Methodist Church gather around the fire Sunday morning in the church's Club Room. There were not enough rooms in Tacoma to house soldiers on wartime weekend leave, so area churches stepped up and offered weekend dormitory housing and a hot breakfast. (TNT 7/5/1942, pg. 1)
