The doorway to the human heart
think it is like one of those fascinat-
ing glass doors that swing open mys-
terously as you pass hidden light
think that only from the depths of
our own desire to understand, desire
to. think selflessly, can we meet in
perfect communion the minds of 9th
ers. If we go up to them with pre-
conceived prejudices, with instructive
dislikes, we will not pass the light.
The door will not open-and no outer
key will unlock it.
But if in warmth of spirit, in a
feeling of friendliness and with a
warm and understanding heart, we ap-
proach our neighbor, the door will
spring wide open. 1t is next to i'm
possible to hate person we know.
The wells of understanding are too
deep and forgiving.
If we really love life, and laugh
ter, fair play and good fellowship, we
will have no room for prejudice or
cruelty. There will be no space left
for misunderstanding. If we really
want for others what we want for our
selves-happiness and an opportunity
to grow, we will face the adventure
that is life in a spirit of friendliness
for our neighbor. Because we have
opened our hearts, our neighbor's
heart will be opened unto us.
Just imagine what world this would
be if we could bring ourselves to stop
distrusting our neighbor. And just inn
agine what it would be like if he felt
complete trust in US? Utopian? Yes
but is it more impossible than the
things that have already come to pass
in the world?
Understanding of our neighbor' S
needs, awareness of his problems, self
restraint against misjudging or gen
eralizing about him, willingness TO
work with him-and above all and
through all the spirit offriendliness,
that is the secret ray which will
open the door of any heart.

Jobs, Jobs. Who's
Got The Jobs?
BY JACK MORRISON

Wichita kaS.-(FP)-A wildly OPP
timistic report in u. S. News that
jobs we're practically growing on trees
in Wichita brought hurried denial
from the Chamber of Commerce and
u. S Employment Service plus a
strong hint to workers who came here
from other cities to leave town.
The II. S. News survey of Wichita,
a boom town all through the war, re-
ported that two-thirds of Wichita in
dustries which needed to reconvert
were able to do so and that even with
industrial layoffs at the end of the
war, Wichita industry still is employ
ing almost five times as many work
ers as before the war.
Galvanized into action by the news
papers report, the USES local office
quickly assembled its own report and
came up with these facts:
'It is estimated that at the present
time there are approximately $4,000 un-
employed workers in Wichita, about
5Oed being women. Within the next
three months, it is estimated this
number will rise To l7,50O due 10 the
growing number of returning war vet
Grams and to release Of additional
workers presently employed by local
war industry.
"Any available jobs will be primar-
ily in retail and wholesale trade and
service enterprises, or in additional
employment by existing industries or
new industries that might be encour-
aged to locate in Wichita, which is un-
certain. 1t is believed all of this would
not materially reduce the number of
1880 unemployed.

New York (FP) The greatest
employment decline in their statistics

dropped to the lowest level since
September 1910 and was 1880 be-

Brother Dave Bevan gave a detail
ed report on the proceedings of the
State Federation of Labor convention
held in Wheeling. He cited the con-
structive legislation adopted at the
state meeting and urged all members
to lend their support to the central
body in furthering the proposals. Add
ing further to his report he told of
the efforts being made by the Central
Labor Union to bring Jeff Davis,
"King of the Hoboes" to Clarksburg
in the near future. Jeff holds many
friends among the potters, having
spoken before various locals through
out the trade during the past several
years.
Brother Kenny Collins, recently dis
charged from the service, was present
at the meeting in civies and report
ed he was starting to work the follow
ing day.
James Ward and Katharine Spada-

not the Arab people, as whole, who
were opposing the Jewish entry into
Palestine, but rather "the effendi, the

that the continued development of
Palestine by the Jews will mean in

AWARDED MEDAL

Col. Wayne S. Moore, district
engineer at the local Army Engl-

May Is, 1913, and husband of Mrs.
Virginia F. Moore, of 219 Country
Club boulevard, has been award
ed the Bronze Star Medal, accord
ing to word received by the Dis
trict Engineers office at the GUS
tom house.
The citation accompanying the
award reads as follows: For
meritorious achievement in con-
nection with military operations
against the enemy in the Pacific
area during the period Of January
II, 1915 to February 10, 1915. AS
commanding officer of boat and
shore regiment, this officer par
ticipated in support of combat OPP
erations by controlling and direct
ing ighterage in such an outstand-
ingly sufficient manner as to con-
tribute in a great degree to the
success of the operation. His work
was performed under extremely
adverse conditions with regard to
equipment and hampered by en-
envy artillery fire and frequent air
attacks, and through personal d.
rection and surv rviaion of all
beach lghterage operations he was
instrumental in the maintenance
of base supply levels at such high
point as to enable this base to ex-
coed commitments for the support
of combat operations. The per-
formance of duty of this officer
contributed credit upon himself
and the military service"
