ON THE roll Of Perfect Hus-
bands, his name should lead all
the rest. But living with him is
like living in a good hotel, easy
and pleasant: but il lacks the
flavor and excitement Of life,
with clumsy, careless, helpless
man. who Is always losing some
thing, cutting his chin, burning
cigaret holes in his clothes,
mussing up his bureau and
catching cold.
What the average girl wants
is somebody TO coddle and
worry over; somebody who adj
mits to the whole wide world
that he would be LOST" with
out her.
And a man who has been
through complaining, learned
how to make his own bed TO
keep his clothes in order and
his tent spic and span, and even
TO peel potatoes, isn't lost,
without ANY woman!
How are we going to get the
men back into the Easy Chair,
after the war? / ask you!

"HOW ARE we going to get
women back into the home and
the kitchen, after the war;" ask
the men.
That's a legitimate question,
but here's another poser.
How are we women going 10
get back our dynastic rights and
prerogatives In the home: How
are we going TO make the men
feel that we are necessary to
the home and to them, again"
MAN Is a creature Of habit;
and he's getting accustomed 10
waiting on himself and taking
care OF himself-his colds. his
clothes and even his conscience.
Will he come back from war,
a self-serving husband, and thus
rob woman of her greatest thrill
in life-that of waiting on him
and coddling him?
A self-serving husband Is. in
deed, a precious jewel, a matri-
monial prize; but he takes all
the heart out Of normal
woman, by being too efficient
around the house.
He packs his own grip, asserts
his own laundry, gives his
clothes TO the tailor, and knows
just where to find the aspirin in
the dark.
He even finds his own shoes,
cleans up his shaving outfit, and
washes his own hair-brushes.
HE KEEPS himself brushed
off--and yeu can't pick a thread
off him or a flaw in him or an
argument with him.
There isn't a thing you can

A white rosebud stands for a

A single rose means simplicity,

together means unity.
Rosemary for Remembrance
A sprig OF rosemary, as you

EASTER MEDITATIONS
By Lr. Chrles Stetzle

I'm the beginning, God" These are the first four
words in the Bible. "God first is good motto Some
of make it very hard for the Almighty to do any
thing us because always getting in His
way
There is one Cod He is the Lord and Father of
us all. In Him and through Him related
to another. There is one Brotherhood In it there is
klan no clique, no cleavage
We partners with God He did not finish
the world in creation. The world is being completed
through us, His fellow-workers. God dgnifed Labor
by Himself becoming a Workman.
God calls men to be lights in the world Just as
He swung the stars in the heavens when the world
was young, so that men might not stumble in the
dark, in these later days God is sending illumned
souls into the world that they may light the way
for roubled tempestossed travellers of every race,
color and creed on the highways of life.
Comfort is of the worlds greatest needs, but
it is one of the worlds rarest gifts When
your life the world whdraws 1t resigns It puts
crepe the door. 1t adds gloom to your heart It
doesn't know what to say; it leaves you alone At
such hour God knocks at the door. He comes into
your life. He comforts your soul He wipes away all
tears.
There can be no death in Cod Jesus turned into
a house of joy every home that harbored death. He
broke up evry funeral that he attended by the
resurrection of the dead. "There shall be no
DEATH neither sorrow, crying neither shall there
there be any pain" said the great voice of
heaven that spoke to John in The Revelation Every
home over which hangs the shadow of death may find
comfort in these words.
God triumphs in the Resurrection. And in the
open tomb triunphs too. For death has lost its
sting And he grave is victory. "Ths is the day
which the Lord hath made. We shall be glad and re-
joce in it. For as in Adam all die even SO in Christ
shall be made alive Thanks be to Cod who giveth us
the victory"
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1943-04-21

the fact that civilians employed
there are making a direct contri-
button to the war effort.
"A navy yard employee is as
close to the front as a civilian
can get said Commander Mason.
1.-THE government has provlued
every necessity and convenience
for them.
Housing is available. Whole
families can be employed at the
yard. There are dormitories for
unattached men, and for men
whoco me I'm advance of the rest
of the family. When the olIier
members arrive, the family can
then move into a housing unit"
WORK FOR BOYS, GIRLS
Whilea dults are needed most,
there is employment also for
many boys and girls of sixteen or
over.
1--WE are not taking anyone
from war work, but we do want
persons who are not now in
essential occupations. They don't
have TO be skilled at our type
of job. We will train them for
the work for which they are
best suited
The pay at the navy yard Is in
many cases above the union scale
for skilled help, and that en-
ployes are entitled to twenty-six
days leave a year and to fifteen
days sick leave. among other
Applications for navy yard en-
ployment may be made at any of
the twenty-five United States EN-
ployment Service offices in the
state, or at the Office OF the la
Dor board at the yard.

NEGRO SUES BOILERMAKERS UNION
> For Conspiracy and Intimidation @
LEE ANDERSON SEEKS TO ENJOIN UNION
FROM INTERFERING, THREATING NTIM-
DATING HIMSELF AND OTHERS OF RACE

I case. This deferment of the case
was disappointing to Mr.. Ander-
son, so a week later he filed suit
against the Portland Boilermak-
ers' union, charging conspiracy to
carry out discrimination against
him and other race workers. The
suit filed in circuit court seeks to
enjoin the union and its officers
from interfering with him in OBJ
tanning employment as weIder
in the shipyards, and from intimi-
dating and threatening persons or
corporations who might employ
or desire to employ him.
The complaint sets out that An
derson was steadily employed at
the Oregon shipyard from March,
1912, to January, I943,and that
while employed he pursued a
course "in the art and science OF
electric Welding under the super
vision of the government" and
that he became a duly qualified
welder. He then applied to the
union for membership so that he
could obtain the necessary clear
ance card, but was forciblyi pre-
vented from entering the union
hiring hall and elected solely by
reason of the fact that he is a
Negro, it is charged.
