church must rise up and meet
the challenge - Christians need
Christian education.
The Rev. E. X. Frierson of
Yakima brought the sermon mes
sage. His subject, 'As Ye Go. +"
was food for thought. He point

have great souls to prepetuate-
to foster. The big question be-
fore the church is how to reach
the unreached.
Attorney George Thomas, Race
Relations Secretary, Portland,
addressed the afternoon meeting.

ON BEING KIND
BY RUTH TAYLOR

What kind of a person do you
ike best? What quality appeals
to you most?
l think if l were asked that,
I'd say l liked kind people most.
Most people would agree with me.
Wouldn't you?
There's one man l know who
is liked by everyone who knows
him - even by those who don't
agree with him. "Why is he so
thoroughly appreciated?" l asked
someone once. The answer came
after a little thought. cts be-
cause no matter how trivial a
thing you go to him with, he
listens courteously and answers

kindly"
That's n pretty fine tribute.
watched him for a day at a con-
vention. (The speeches were I'M
usually dull.) He didn't go out
of his way to hunt IL ppeople He
sat quietly and calmly but
everyone who came up to him re-
ceived the same consideration and
courtesy. He had made an art
of being kind.
This is one virtue any of us can
possess. We can all give kind
ness. And it is one measure we
can safely let overflow. Always
try to be a little kinder than
necessary.
We have all suffered from the
people who are so intent on keep
ing all they can get for them
selves that they try to knife
everyone who seems to get in
their way. Let US not be like
them. Let us rather be helpful
to all who need help. "Giving
can never impoverish" was a ia
vorite line of my mothers. And
l never knew anyone richer in
friends. There is enough for
everyone. The greater the man
the greater the courtesy.
Think over today. How much
easier it would have been If those
whom you had met had offered
kindness. But--were you kind
and courteous to all with whom
you came in contact? 1t works
both ways you know.
The Lenten season is good
time to prove this truth. Make
habit of being kind and cour-
teous to those you meet or with
whom you work. You will find
it will pay great dividends in ease
of heart alone. You will have
done your share.
Those who bring sunshine to
the lives of others cannot keep
it from themselves great man

man said do unto others as
We would that men do unto you"

THE coming week is the time

OF all the vegetable seeds,
beans are perhaps the most SEN

fertilizer should ever be put in

Reach Wage Agreement
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 2. - The CIO
United Packing House Workers Un-
ion reported today it had reached an
agreement with the Big -Four pack
ers calling for adjustment of wage
inequalities among 100000 union
members employed in meat packing
houses throughout the Nation.
A spokesman for the regional
War Labor Board said the wage
boosts would be contingent on ap-
proval by the national WLB.
The agreement, which the union
said followed almost two years OF
mediation, was reached at a two-day
conference before Jesse Freedin,
Washington, WLB representative,
ana attended by representatives Of
the Armour, Swift, Cudahy and
Wilson & Co. packing houses, and
union officials.
The union said the wage settle
ments included an average 2-cent-
an-hour allowance among all union
workers, to eliminate intraplant
inequalities, and that some of these
adjustments would be retroactive to
August 20, 1912. Packing house rep
resentatives declined to comment
pending final WLB action.
