GLORIFYING
YOURSELF
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Service Staff Writer

Let's hope the shortage of medi-
cal manpower won't lead women
who are having babies to decide not
to try to get the care, rest and eX-
ercise which are essential to keep
ing both figure and fitness.
1t is true that it may be harder
now to obtain the kind of extra
special care whereby many women
had all their diet and figure watch
inc done for them. But adequate
care still is essential to health,
and self-care before the baby ar
rives and also afterward can fill
out the doctors services.
Most important item of self-care
is simply rest. Up-to-date experts
agree that when the birth is nor

weeks rest out of bed; and fairly
restricted activity until the infant
is two months old. Take special

The ou.-of-bed rest is important
too. 1t means that if you live in
a house. you stay upstairs, and do
not attempt any heavy task. 1t
means that if you live in an eleva-

do not go downstairs just because
it doesn't involve climbing The

means you do not do much of even
relatively light. but endurance-tax-
ing work. like shopping; do not en-

this does not involve extra physical
work.
Do NOT suddenly start exercis-
ing briskly, either If you are not
accustomed to it. But you might
find it useful to try these routines
which are suggested by a doctor:

New England resourcefulness is not
a thing of the past. Members of a church
in Dedham, Massachusetts, the other day
set out into the forest to chop wood to
heat their building.
1t was not oil rationing but the labor
shortage that sent the menfolk out to
WELD an ak, just as their Pilgrim fathers
may have done. The little church has
long been heated by wood, and the wood
lot from which it has been supplied was
decided to the original Dedham Unitarian

It's good sign that there are men and

Higgins to Build
Cargo AirpIanes

WASHINGTON, Dec. I-(U.Po.
The War Department today an
nounced award of construction to
Andrew j. Higgins, New Orleans
shipbuilder, for construction of -
large number" of cargo airplaneS.
II was learned several weeks ago
that an agreement had been reach;
ed for Higgins to build 1900 giant
cargo aircraft, but today's an
nouncement was the first Official
confirmation.
The War Departments statement
said the project would cost more
than $5,OOO,0 00'-a nominal flg-
ure. inasmuch as 100000 each is
regarded as conservative esti-
mate for the cost of large cargo
planes.
The department gave no details
of size or planned performance OF
the planes, but said they VIII be

POLL TAX BILLS
TRUE NATURE
indianapolis News)

indianapolis News)
Now that the poll-taX bill has been
laid aside for the session, and will die
with this Congress, its true nature is be-
ing examined While it was under con-
sideration, both in the House, which pass
ed it, and in the Senate, it was grossly
misrepresented. The public pressure eX
erted for its adoption aroused more than
a suspicion that the deception was delib-
crate, and that the true purpose of the
bill was to establish the right of the Fed
eral Government to define all the qualifi-
cations of the totalitarians who would de-
stroy the States.
The poll-taX requirement for voters in
eight Southern States does not discrimi-
nate against Negroes. All qualified elect
orS who choose to cast ballot are re-
quired to pay.
It is true, of course, that most States
have repealed the poll-taX requirements
for voting, and that the eight hold-out
States would do we'll to repeal it. But
to force repeal from Washington would
necessitate a valuation of the right by
the Supreme Court
AS time affords the advantage of
fair judgment of the filibuster, the gen.
eral conclusion may be that the South
ern Senators made two good contribu-
tons to settlement of the issue-they
drew attention to the infringement of
Negro rights in the South, and they help
ed to preserve the sovereignty of the
States

LET PRIDE, NOT PAIN
BE SUPREME

Once there was a woman named Mary.
She bore a son, and nursed him, and
watched him grow. She tended his little
hurts, picked him up from his falls, wor-
ried at his frailties. His life was hers,
and her life was his.
From babyhood she guided him, adj
vieed him and, as is the way with mothers,
scolded him.
She loved her home as deeply as any
one can, but for her son she reserved the
very special kind of love that mothers
have for their children.
Then, one day, she gave him up.
Her heart must have beat in pain
against her breast, and tears must have
filled her eyes. She must have cried in
silent anguish, "Oh, why must this be-
Yet in her own bruised heart she knew,
and she was proud.
She was Mary mother of Jesus.
Mankind needed her son, so that the
world might be better place for living
He gave Himself. But Mary gave doubly,
for she gave her son, and in the doing
gave herself also. Do you not think her
own flesh shrank from the pain Of the
spears that pierced His side? Do you not
think she would have given her own blood
to replace that which fell from the crown
of thorns? Do you not think her own
soul cried out, with Him, God, why have
you forsaken me?'
Yet, when that moment of terrible an
guish had passed, and there was only
dull pain left at knowing her son could
never he hers again, there must have been
pride that scared above pain. Her son
was gone, but his going helped light the
world to a better life.
This Christmastide, million mothers
know the pain that Mary knew. In this
sacred season, each can feel the pride
she felt, transcending pain and bitterness.
The shadow of a manger falls across
a million empty beds in America today,
and for those empty beds the world will
be a better place for living.

LET CHRISTMAS BRING A
GREATER, DEEPER JOY

There is an underlying sadness in many
American homes this season of the Nativ-
ity because there are empty chairs at
the dinner tables, vacant spaces in the
family circle at the hearth.
There can and should be pride in
each of those homes-a quiet pride above
and beyond any pride of possession, or of
family, or of position.
From each of those homes a man has
gone forth to offer his life so that Christ
mas may remain holy season, SO that
mankind may live in freedom of worship
and thought, so that the good may sur
vive and the evil perish, so that the world
OF. tomorrow may be better than the
world of today.
That was why Jesus gave his life.
That was why Mary was proud beyond
pain, glad beyond suffering.
That is why million American moth
ers can share today not only the kinship
of motherhood with history's greatest
mother, but her gladness as we'll
There is no need to hide the yearning
for those boys who are away, but surely
His precedent should lead us to sub
merge pain under greater pride this
season.
