handle. The tide OF resentment
against the practice is rising steadily
throughout the nation. ! understand
that two state legislatures have al
ready adopted laws designed to force
married women out Of industry.
Twenty-eight other legislatures have
considered the subject.
Yet if legislation is TO be adopted,
l hope it will DE practical, sensible,
not too restrictive. There are hun
dreds and hundreds Of cases that
must be made eXempt-cascs where
the wife must help support her own
family, an unemployed brothers
family, an aged mother or father. II
any legislation is adopted. it should
not automatically purge married Wo-
men from industry. 1t should merely
prohibit both husband and wife from
holding certain types of JOBS. e&pe-
cially government jobs. In many Il

breud-Winncr than the husband. II
the wife has the business ability, then
why shouldn't she hold the family

and changes the baby's diapers?
Should Recognize Trend.
Working wives can make out a
splendid case for themselves. Yet /

and wives working Whera there is no
need for both to work. The would
do far better TO resign their jobs now
and prevent restrictive legislation
legislation which it may take years

regulations Stacking employers and
employees. But if wives insist on
working when their husbands have
good jobs, then they must lace the
day Of reckoning.

town and city runs community chests.
Adding To Tax Burden.
Yet. from one end of the country
to the other there are glaring eX-
amples of wives holding down good
Jobs while their husbands are doing
likewise These cases cover public
Jobs as we'll as private employment.
So long as we have TO hand over
one-quarter of our income every year
to meet government bills (Which
have been pushed up to record highs
to support the iobless) then some
type of formal action to stop this
practice is bound TO come.
A storm Of controversy has ragged
around this subject for years. Pro
tectorS of the home have thumpet
the tub against working wives on
the basis that the place for the vile
is in the home They insist that if
we wish to continue with our present
system OF the family as the unit OF
society, we must confine the wife to
her real role of mother and home
maker. think a lot Of words are
wasted in arguing along this line.
If the family as the unit OF society
is going out the window, then we
can not stem the tide simply by put
ting a new law on the books. Only
a spiritual family awakening will!
solve the problem properly.
Real Objections Are Economic.
My only objection 10 married Wo-
men working is based on cold eco
nomic grounds. Working wives take
many part-time jobs, they work at
lower pay scales than single women,
they create a surplus of labCr, they

Text: Matthew 26:17-30.
Our lesson, BASED on the story OF
the Last Supper in the Upper Room
where Jesus was observing e
Passover with His disciples, brings
US into the closing scenes of our
Lords earthly ministry and His
preparation for Calvary.
1t is upon this Last Supper and
the symbolic eating of the bread
and drinking of the wine that the
communion service in the Chris
tan Church has been established.
1t is fit 'ng-especially in these
days when there is such great need
Of drawing Jews and Christians
together in tolerance and in love
for one another-that the Last
Supper, which POUNDS the Chris
tian service of communion, should
have been the Jewish Passover,
still observed with such solemnity
and devotion by Jews throughout
the world.
The Passover and the service OF
communion have more in common
however, than this association in
the lives Of Jesus and His disciples.
They are designed to promote the
same spirit Of faith and gratitude to
God for His mercy and salvation.
Both emphasize the reality of re-
ligious fellowship and the conscious
ness of a bond of unity in faith,
hope, and devotion. They also en-
phasize that element Of sacrifice
that has been so essentially asso'
ciated with religious service and
with human welfare. The progress
and betterment Of man has beer
possible because Of those who have
borne heavy burdens and accepted
great sacrifices to attain it.

Today;s Sermon
BY WILLIAM E. GILROY, d. D..
Editor of Advance

Ihls last Passover. of the dis
ciples with the Master was a period
of great sadness, because Jesus
had assured the disciples that one
OF them should betray Him. The
shadow of the Cross was very de-
finitely upon Him, and the disciples,
who had turned from all that they
had in this world to follow Him,
were puzzled and disappointed to
find that, instead of settirg up an
earthly kingdom, He was going to
some mysterious fate. Apparently
they did not even understand what
this fate would be or how, through
suffering, their Master WIS to full.
fill His earthly mission.
But in the depth of their sorrow,
they must have sensed a deeper my
stery. They may not have under
stood, but when Jesus broke the
bread and gave it to them, and
when He spoke of the wine in the
cup as His blood, poured out for
the remission Of SINS" and when
He spoke Of the time when He
would drink of the fruit of the vine
anew with them in H i S Fathers
kingdom, although they may not
have understood, they must have
sensed some world Of glory above
the tragedy t h a t overshadowed
them.
We see these things after t h e
fact. We car enter into these ex-
periences and understand as the dis
ciples did not understand. 1t is this
that ought to enrich for us the SER
vice of communion, the Lords Sup
per which repeats and symbolizes in
our experience what happened IN
that Upper Room.
