tray supper, or an evening

I still suggest a patterned rug.
If your living room is strictly

expensive crinoline and found
after washing and starching
it that all the stiffness was
gone. She wondered what was

It's P-rm-st-rch. I found
after using it, full strength.
it's wonderful. You can iron

Making Marriage Click
Men Are Different
BY Msgr. Irving A. Leblanc

Woman's vocation is to be q
physical or spiritual mother.
Not all women desire to marry,
but everyone is obliged to
lead useful life. To fulfill
her distinct vocation success
fully she must have certain
physical, intellectual, emotion
al qualities which differ from
those of men.
Woman's constitution is gen.
orally weaker, except in the
physical sphe ere of mother
hood. Woman is not obliged
TO earn a living for the family
by the strength of her arm,
so here arms and shoulders
are weaker thar mans. She
will tire easily because she,
unlike man, is not made for
hard work. Strength of body
is not her major physical
characteristic; she is not the
protector of the family. In
sports she avoids the more
strenuous games such as box
ing, football, wrestling. 1t is
more fitting for her physical
nature to play tennis, to swim,
to go walking.
In some women this physi-
cal difference stirs feelings of
inferiority towards the strong
er" sex, a feeling which is
manifested by foolish effort
to initiate men. Women dress
like men, smoke like men, as
sumo manish habits, play
strenuous games. All of this is
often dangerous to their health
and invariably fails to attract
the masculine eye, except to
prove that she is a momentary
curiosity, or by way of silent
evasion. Woman's great charac-
teristic then, from the physical
point of view, is her gentle
ness.
Admitting her comparative

Hearing and Speaking

When the man whose miraculous cure
forms the subject of Sundays Gospel was
brought to Our Lord he could neither hear nor
speak; the voices of his fellow men, music, the
noises of nature never reached him, nor could
he give vocal expressions to his thoughts Life
went on around him, and what he could see of
il constantly reminded him how imperfect his
contact was His friends sympathized with him,
and gave him what slight help they could, try
ing TO make him understand by signs what
was happening. or what he should do, but at
best it was an unreal superficial share he had
in their interests.
What a happy day it was, then when they
had the inspiration to take him to the Saviorl
They had heard how Christ had compassion on
the afflicted, inviting those who were "heavily
burdened" to come to Him: perhaps, they
thought, He would find way of relieving their
I unfortunate friend Hopefully they guided him
into the Savior's presence and begged that He
would 'lay His hand upon Him." hopefully
they watched as He took him aside. and touched
his ears and tongue; they saw Him look up to
heaven and sigh and heard Him utter the word
of command, BE thou opened"
Straightway. before their eyes, the miracle
took place: the ears of the man ".were at once
opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed,
and he began to speak correctly" Is il surpris-
ing that they burst out in acclamation of Christi
AS the Gospel relates they carried the news
abroad that HE has done all things well; He
has made both the deaf to hear and the dumb
to speak"

We have read dozen stories lately in as
many magazines and newspapers about the
threatening superiority of Russian science and
technology in this critical age that finds the
East and the West racing for supremacy and
even survival
Russia now has the leisure to devote time
and manpower to pure research. Russian physi-
cistS, too, know just about anything that has
been printed in their field in the Western
world There is an air of eagerness and of COM
petition that encourages achievement. Scientific
facilities and equipment are first class and up
to date. Scientists get top recognition econom-
ically, politically, and socially. Salary standards
are relatively higher than in the United States.
The present hope of the Russian govern
ment appears to be to make Russia through
these means the scientific capital of the world,
which will attract students from everywhere, as
in the past, Fermi and Einsten and others
sought security, and leisure, and facilities to
study, in the U. S. A.
This new attitude has had a terrific impact
on the school system. Gone are the early easy
days when pupils, young Communists dictated
standards and policies as lin the current Amer
lean iargon) experiments in social living" or
themselves determined what subjects should be
incorporated into the curriculum. Now there is
work to be done with no time for fads fancies
and foolishness. Russian schools are agencies of
learning only.
While recent study conducted in the
United States by the Educational Testing Serv-
ice of Princeton, N. j., complained that mathe-

to restore hearing and speech to the man who
was physically deaf and dumb, can we doubt
that He will answer when called upon to cure
the far more serious afficton of spiritual deaf
ness and dumbness? How many there are who
refuse to hear the word of God and whose
ears are closed to truth! Because they do nor
or will not hear Alright. they fail to speak
Alright; they are silent when they should he Of
fering praise and thanks to God; they are silent
when they should be speaking out in defense
of Justice or in condemnation of evil; they are
silent when they should be comforting the
distressed or counselling the bewildered, or
warning the misguided.
On all sides can be seen the woes brought
upon the world by the misuse of the faculties
of hearing and speech. Evil destructive things
are said and listened TO: it is in this way that
bigotry, hatred and all sorts of immortality are
spread On the other hand, courageous honest,
uplifting words are spoken and are given no
heed, so that many an opportunity for better
ing society is lost The grace of listening to
what should be heard, and of fearlessly uttering
what should be said is one we should all pray
for, for it will show us the way of truth and
salvation
Like the man in the Gospel, we need, as an
essential beginning, to be brought to Christ, to
let Him lay His hand upon us. It may be
Christening hand, as it was in the case of St
Paul. who tells in Sundays Epistle how. until
the voice of Christ penetrated his deafness he
had prosecuted the Church; then he became
the Apostle to the Gentiles and his words are
now heard constantly throughout Christendom,

weakness, she is ideally fitted
for taking care of the home.
Housework, cooking, sewing.
gardening are all suited to her
ability.
Physically, woman has a more
difficult time than man and it
should merit his understand
ing and sympathy. But a wo-
man should not force her hus-
band to undergo with her ev-
cry little inconvenience that
she experiences. That is tragic
and fatal.
Because of her vocation of
motherhood, a woman must
prepare her body for this role.
Excessive dieting, lack of sleep,
extreme smoking habits can
interfere with childbearing.
For this thoughtless girl, a
family of four or six or seven
becomes a major physical haz-
ard. The early care of her
health to fulfill her role of
motherhood is matter of con-
science.
Mans vocation in the world
is to rule. To him belongs au-
thority more than to woman
first, as master of the home
and then, of society. He must
assure his family sustenance,
security and protection. Hard
work away from home is the
lot of man. Strength Is his
major physical characteristic.
He enters tournaments and
competitive games. Because of
his vocation he must be sure
of himself, competitive, more
Self-sufficient than in the case
with woman.
Mans great danger, however,
in his struggle for strength, is
that he becomes ego-centric,
overbearing, proud, rather than
Christo-centric and humble.

WASHINGTON - Warnings
are being sound I'd here
against undue optimism re-
garding the threat of commun-
ism. These are new warnings,
calculated to head off new
and seemingly developing situ-
alton.
Persons returning home af-
ter protracted d sojourns in
Europe say they are startled
by the air of complacency they
find here. They note that some
people hint that Soviet Rus
sia is cracking up; that the
rulers in Moscow are losing
their grip; that it won't be too
long before the West is tri-
umphant in the cold war;.
This is som e hing of a
switch, as they say in some
circles. Europeans have been
coming here and expressing
amazement over the "jitters"
and fear of imminent war they
said they found here. Now our
own people are coming home
and showing concern because
we are not alert.
Americans who have a first
hand look at Red Vaccinations

mates is in worse state than ever, a group
of physicists who have just returned from
Russia have only enthusiastic reports to make
on the efficiency of the Russian schools. Said
the American survey: Several other studies
suggest that mathematics has the dubious honor
of being the least popular subject in the cur
riculum." Our visitors to Russia have a quite
contrary impression of what is going on over
there one professor noted 'The universities
have many more applicants who wants to go
into science than they can handle"
For example, at the University of Moscow,
1000 out of total of $1,000 students are be-
ing trained in physics alone. Naturally they
have already mastered the elementary mathe-
natics which is presupposed At Kiev 800 to
300 students out of the enrolment of 5000
want to 60 into physics; some 500 others are
studying electrical engineering.
No American advocates that we burden our
students the way the Russians do Their test is
the nowfamiliar Russian one of brute efficiency.
Students there are loaded down with work; they
are in school from early morning until o'clock
in the afternoon A dawntodark regime may
possibly be justified as an extreme emergency;
but it is certainly not part of sound educa-
tionaI psychology.
Still the physicists who returned from Rus
sia all agreed that educational standards in the
United States simply have to be frightened up If
this country is to compete with Russia in the
future. This contrast may itself imply an emer-
gency. More bright students maust be attracted
to the field of science. If Russia is overriding it,

O. Hoso can ,0e explain the

He told the Apostles: "And

certainly did not exclude later
efforts to convert the people
of that town, but perhap aps
made clear to the Apostles that
they should expect some oppo-

probably meant, in effect, that
they should not insist upon

The Washington Letter
Reds Want Us Lulled


pacency now precisely because
the communists want it that
way. The things that are tend
ing to make us feel relaxed
are probably planned for that
purpose. There may be, in fact,
less risk of war than there
formerly was, but this is be-
cause the Reds have decided
that the soft approach is bet
ter than the tough one used
under Stain. Their objective
is still the same one they have
had all along, to weaken, and
ultimately control, the United
States.
Many people are inclined to
say II know, l know" when
they are warned that co-exist-
ence with Communism is i'm
possible, and that the Free
World must always be on its
guard to preserve its freedom.
1t is an old story to them, they
say. But the old story suddenly
becomes vivid all over again,
when one hears his fellow
countrymen return home to
express the amazement they
obviously feel.
And the complacency en-
gendered on the international
scene is seemingly felt on the

domestic scene too. Numerous
Investigations have revealed
the startling extent to which
Reds have penetrated profes-
sions and businesses in this
country. Many seem to think
that since the danger has been
overcome. Such is not the case.
One important lesson taught
by Congressional investigations
is that it is hard to recognize
communist. Reliable wit
nesses have told hearings that
the Communist Party goes to
a great deal of trouble to see
that persons of real value to it
do not have cards or other
documents that would identify
them as party members. And
you can't tell a Red by his
dress. Some communists, we
are told, are among the best
dressed and most ingratiating
operators" you will ever
meet.
Just a S dangerous tn e
party member is the non-party
member who does the work of
the Reds. But to do any harm,
the Red and the fellow travel
ers must serve the party cause.
BY their works you will know
them.
