American Pen Women's
Exhibition Wins Praise
Much could be said in praise of
the exhibition Of art by members
held by the League of American Pen
Women in the foyer of the National
Museum on the first three days of
the past week. About 60 of the
hundred and more works shown
came from out of town, every State
in the Union, as well as Honolulu,
being represented. On the whole
the showing was conservative, but
also, for the most part, it was up
held to professional standard, al
though many of the contributors
have, it is understood, turned to art
primarily as an avocation. Numer-
Gus prize awards were made by a
jury consisting Of Mathilde M.
Leisenring, Elizabeth Mullhofer,
Ann Wolfe and william H. Calfee
The exhibition was under the di-
|rection of Mrs. George G.. Gaydash,
chairman of the Pen Women's
League.

Practical suggestions as to
ways and means OF getting out
of ourselves must start CLOSE at
home with the body. Many Of
the worst symptoms of egocen-
tricity, for example, are associ-
ated with fatigue. The mentally
and nerVously exhausted person
inevitably becomes acutely con-
scious of himself. He is tense,
representative, irritable, petu-
liant. The way he feels fills his
whole horizon.
Let the overstrain 60 too far
and the last barricade is down
against invading fears, ankle
ties, and unhappy memories.
Many miserably self conferred
folk need not so much psyehi-
artist to analyze them or a min
lister to discuss morals with them
as common sense in handling the
physical basis of a healthy life.
The modern man needs con-
stantly TO be reminded that he
cannot slough off his biological
inheritance. Our bodies were
made to use in hard physical la
Dor. Our forefathers were COM
PEELED to use them so or perish.
They daily faced strenuous work
that called into play their ma
jor muscles and sent them to
bed at night too healthily tired
to fret over imaginary worries.
Within few generations mil

ferred to urban life where hard,
energy consuming, muscular toll

brunt of the burden. Multitudes
of men no longer fell forests
and pillow fields, and multitudes
of women no longer spin and

heavy tasks of the household

the emotional and moral results
for many are disastrous. We can

An indication that Finland in

today from the Helsinki news
paper Social Demokratti, mouth
piece for the Finnish Parlia-
ment's strongest political party.

paper expressed the opinion
that they were meant only to
form the basis for further ne
gotiation and that Finland will
have chance to express its own
views"
The article, informed Finnish
sources said, was inspired by the
majority view of Parliament
which gave the Finnish govern
ment a vote of confidence at a
secret session Tuesday. The
newspaper speaks authoritative

with opinion in informed Lon

Finland ultimately to accept
Russia's price, although reluct-
antly and only after making
contemporaries in an effort
to surmount the difficulties aris-
ing from Nazi divisions still in
Finland.)
