Women's Institute Executive Meets

A meeting was held by the Ex- ecutive of the Prince Edward Is- land Women's Institute, Saturday, November 15. at their restroom. Charlottetown, with a ful atten- dance of members.

As a means of furtheradvancing the work of the Prince Edward Is- land Women's Institute, Leader- ship Courses will be held at Sum- merside, Charlottetown, and Souris.

Mr. sl. L. Dewar was welcomed to speak on Farm Forums. He said Women's Institutes are missing something that could be beneficial to their program, to themselves. and to their community. Forums will reach the goal they should at- tain only when the women take an interest and attend as well as the men. Getting together is one way of solving community problems.

The programs for the coming county leadership courses were re- viewed, comprising proper proce- dure in conducting Institute meet- ings, panel discussions, handicraft instruction, discussion on Instit- ute projects, programs, recreation, etc. and promise to be very inter- esting. '

A discussion of the publicity for the coming of the second Audubon Screen Tour was held coiicernirp advertising, etc. The first presenta- tion of this show was much ap- preciated by all who attended.

Correspondence including mat- ters pretaining to A.C.W.W. and F. W. l. C. were read and dis- cussed. I

Seven Days A Week

(By Anne Shannon)

a...-

I. Monday: wash-day is usuallyn busy time for mothers and for pre- school age kiddies its something they look upon as a necessary evlli Why?-well, because Mom is usual- ly so busy that they get scant at- tention. Plan beforehsnd to have lots of odds and ends around to amuse youngsters while the week- wash is being done. Keep in a large box.I. lot of articles such as these -nests of tin cans, these can be made from cans of different sizes from baby food up. (Make sure your can opener does a perfect-job when opening the cans). Large size wooden spools may be made into wheels for wagons (typewrit- er spools adapt themselves nicely to this idea). Smaller spools make "spool men" when threaded on strong cord: milk bottle tops also make wheels when fastened with a paper fastener with a head and two prongs, paper plates may be colored for wall pictures for a doll house. Macarroni, tinted with vege- table dye makes fine necklaces and bracelets when strung with thread and blunt needle. For a very small child a rattle can be made by put- ting buttons in a baking powder can and sealing it. The good old stand-by, wooden boxes, can pro- vide many happy hours of amuse- ment. Paint them to use as stone counters. or shelves for toys. Four boxes, the kind known as butter boxes can be stacked to form a two-storey doll house. Fruit bas- kets can be made into attractive cradles if you move the handle over to the end or put spool legs on one and use it as a doll-bed. Remember busy children are never mischiev- ous, give them encouragement and 0. bit of help occasionally and do insist they put every thing away in the box or cupboard when play time is over. Don't say 'tMy child has nothing to play with, poor dear." Get busy-your pantry isfull of interesting boxes and so on just waiting for small hands to use.

1. Tuesday: In the Household Hint Department are these items: After frying fish or onions sprinkle some oatmeal in the pan and shake it over a flame until the meal be- gins to scorch. Wash in warm soap suds, rinse in hot water. and the pan will be odorless. when you have to crush a pill for a sick child or an adult, place the pill between

two spoons fitted together, then press them together hard. The crushed pill will be all in the

spoon and none will be lost this way. I 0 0

3. Wednesday: Reading about Young Canada's Book Week in all newspapers recently made me real- ize more than ever that reading is like brushing one's teeth-good habits should be started in in- fancy. Our own four year old loves books. and is always on the alert for someone to "read me a story, please." You may be alone, but you will never be lonely when you have good reading material at hand. Begin with the colored pict- ure books, then books with pictures and short sentences and then lit- tle by little progress to the Little Black Sambo kind. Thornton Bur- gess' stories are lovely-for they are informative and so very inter- esting to all ages. (In fact, I know one person, over seventy, who fol- lows "Burgess Bedtime Stories daily in The Gua.rdian.") Then there are other books, which arouse in- tellectual curiosity and are a good example of education for the "chocolate-covered" type. seabird IJY Clancy Holling and Tree in the Trail, are an example of what I mean. Poetry, too, should be a. part of everyone's daily life. Under The Tent of The sky is one book of poetry which should be in every house. I think. Yes, there are all sorts of books for all ages of children and it is a. pity to deprive them of the chance to wander through unknown countries and meet. all sorts of peopleAreal and make-believe.

Today our modern world is reaping a. harvest of international turmoil. and confusion, war and uneasiness because of is phenom- enon largely of nineteenth century origin. which we call nationalism. This feature of the modern state has grown to exaggerated forms and has become nothing more than collective secularism. God and His laws have been ousted from their rightful place in the family of nations and without His Fatherhood, the brotherhood of man has become merely an empty cliche.

Imperial st expansion, economic domination and open war have been practised without scruple and everything has been justified on the grounds of national exped- iency. Even today, aithough Com- munism claims to preach an inter- national doctrine, it takes very little insight to see that it is noth- ing more than an artful form of world domination by the Russian Stat . Modern propagandisis have lulie the collective consciences of nations to make them bel'eve that there is nothing immoral which fosters the good of the amoral state.

. 0 .

On the other hand, true Christ- ian patriotism is a virtue. It is that virtue which inclines a cit- izen to love his country, to honor and obey civil authorities, to de- fend it even with his life against unjust aggression, but ever and always, without prejudice to the rights of other nations. We can be quite truly patriotic, without being of necessity nationalistic. We can love and honor our country and at the same time respect the rights, language and culture of our neighbors.

A good test that our patriotism is sincere and not overstcpping the bounds of charity is the ab- sence on our part of criticism and unfavorable comparisons of other countries. On the other hand, if we believe there is no good in other peoples or nations, that our country alone is worth- while, then we may well suspect that we are guilty of this extreme nationalism for which the world is paying so dearly. Then we are guilty of collective pride and pride is one of the seven deadly sins. We are like the Pharlsee who "thank- ed God that he was not as the rest of men."

I. O O No Super Race

The same principles may be ap- plied to the question of race.- There is no ”super race."-All men have been created by God with immortal souls and destined for a. supernatural reward, and all, no matter what race or color, deserve the respect of their God-given rights. There is absolutely no moral justification for racial pre- judice, just as there is no justifi-

By His Eminence Cardinal Mcfiulgan (Copyright)

TRUE CANADIAN PATRIOTISM

Jesus Christ to His Apostles was to "go and teach all nations." He excepted no one from His Divine teachings on racial or nationalistic grounds, and no race nor country from His commandments. He included also the family of nations in this bond of fraternal charity. When commanded us not to steal, He did not mean that one nation could be unjust in its dealings with an- other. When He commanded us not to kill, He did not mean that one nation could slaughter the innocent
