TT ISN'T THE LOVE YOU
GET, BUT THE LOVE YOU
GIVE. THAT COUNTS.
If you start out to love on a
value received" policy, you're
heading for complete and cor
roding failure. For no human
being, however admirable. will
ever live up to your own expec-
tations of what you deserve.
You'll always-according to
your notion-be giving more
than you get. No kindness can
balance your tenderness. no
service can measure up to your
sacrifice no companionShip
can approach your own in love
or loyalty, beauty or nobility.
In short. if you're going to
make profit and loss" prop
osition of love, you'll always be
short-changed, according to your
own reckoning. And the only
compensation you'll get out of
such love will be an A No. l
Martyr Complex.
But, on the other hand, If
you go into LOVE FOR LOVES
SAKE, you'll always win, no
matter what the other fellow
may be or do.
He Cor she) may be a weak
ling, a cheat, a coward, a
parasite, an all around heel,
yet if you have the courage and
strength to love without count
ing the cost. you will be the
better for it.
Love is not a commercial
commodity. 1t is an act OF
grace. And like every other act
of grace, it is its own reward.
Think of love as you would
think of courage or honesty or
patience or good will. You do
not exercise these qualities be-
cause you will be praised or
paid for them. You exercise
them for themselves for the
fineness that lies in them.
They are matter of spiritual
grooming of self.respect.
You do not do them for profit,
yet you do profit by them. You
are always the greater for them,
no matter what they may cost.
And the same fact applies to
love. 1t. too, is worth doing for
itself. Once, in one of the most
dreadful dawnings I have eyer
The Washington times., 1938-02-18

known. I waited with a mother
while her two sons were electro
cuted. A broken husk of
thing-she had known every
bitterness that life could bring.
Born into the most beStial sur
roundings, her boys had been
wolves from birth. She, poor
soul utterly helpless in her
poverty and ignorance had.
nevertheless, given the best she
could. For years she had fol-
lowed them. agonized for them,
labored and lied for them, only
to be rewarded with curses and
blows. Now she could no longer
serve or save them. Her last
hope was gone. They must die.
There in my office we waited
my arms around her thin
shoulders, her worn face Sob
bing on my heart. Great gaSps
racked her flung her. broken
-. racked her again. CHASTITY!
The minutes crawled intoler-
ably. Desperately talked
against time soothing her
:. reading the old book.
Then suddenly, hideously-a
great clock began to strike.
She leaped upright shud-
dering E. . her blotted face mov-
ing slowly from right to left
awful comprehension in
her staring eyes. They were
going. No one had told
her, but she knew. Coward that
was, I tried not to look at her
face. Then, amazingly, it hap
pened. The terror passed the
anguish dropped away. Slowly
the gray lips parted and
the drowned eyes smiled.
They're safe" she answered.
MY babies I loved them
SOL"
Then she fell.
X x
She loved them so! Never
had thaj love brought her a days
peace or pride. Always it had
meant terror and agony. Yet,
at the end she could forget all
pain remember only that
she loved them so"!
AS, long ago, another, tor
tured, cried, Father, forgive
them, for they know not what
they do"

Catholics. Just because the FaS-
cists stepped in and gave the
Christians a hand doesn't mean
these Christians are Fascists-
THEY ARE MOTT. The Catho-
lie Church deplores any form
of totalitarian government. II
you fell into a pit and were in
danger of losing your life and a
Republican came along and Of
fered to help you, would you re-
fuse just because you we're a
Democrat? Or would you be a
Republican just because you &C
cepted his assistance? This is
the same situation in Spain.
Thousands of dollars, men and
munitions were being poured
into Spain from Russia to help
the Communist cause. and they
had no choice but to accept the
Fascist help to defend their lives
and their God!
The Catholic Church has been
the real champion down through
the ages of freedom, higher
living, and education for the
masses. 1t has been the greatest
carrier of the torch of enlight-
ment, from the time that torch
was handed it by the Saviour
Himself! 1t is ridiculous to
blame the poverty and suffering
of this world on the Catholic
Church. On the contrary. the
Catholic Church has been the
greatest alleviator of suffering,
both physically and spiritually,
through it's orphanages, aims
houses. hospitals. schools and
churches. Workers in these
fields have given up everything
the world holds dear. to unset
fishly and wholeheartedly de-
vote their lives to it.
It is absurd to accuse them
Of being against the masses
The Washington times., 1938-02-18

when they are devotinE every
ounce Of their energies to help
ing them. Many people are in
need of the dash of intelligence
sufficient to figure this out for
themselves.
Why is it that all the SYM
pathies Of the secular news
papers are with the Communists
and against the people of Spain,
who are really trying to defend
their country from one of the
greatest demoralizing forces
known and whose degradationS
are even being deplored by past
members? If people really want
to know the truth, they should
consult the Catholic papers,
whose dispatches have come
from priest and nun refugees
whose word should be taken o
thousand times before the de-
ceitful, God-hating Communists.
who bombed Guernica them
selves and who have committed
the most horrible atrocities on
human life and property, and
then accused the nationalistS Of
these.
AS for the Mexican situation,
why has the United States sat
silently and allowed these same
atrocities to happen to the
people Of Mexico, perpetrated
by Communists who have taken
the only ray of hope and happt-
ness from these poverty-Stricken
people-the church-and given
them nothing in return. Their
whole life centered around their
church, as any traveller in Mexi-
CO can see and, now that it has
been taken from them. nothing
but emptiness and bleakneSS
remain. (MRS.) I. MOORE.
Red Strategy
I see by the papers that the
loyalistS expect to abandon
Teruel, on the ground that it
isn't worth keeping anyhow.
That's good strategy-the more
territory the enemy has to de-
fend, the weaker he is. Now, II
the loyalists can only trick
Franco into taking over the
whole of Spain, they'll have him
licked. JACK CARNEY.
Keep 1t Up, G-Men
Until the crime of kidnapping
is completely wiped out OF
this country, social progress
scientific advancement and per
sonal prosperity will mean
nothing. Who can be happy
with the threat Of kidnapping
and murder overshadowing his
home? A. A. CARRIER.

thing to be a mans woman in

1t is an affront to the intelli-
