. Christ paid omen the ex- zrgriixinary and rare compliment of granting them as equal human beings, I-le treated them as He u-"ted men. This-may sound very mtg today but at the time of Christ

, R was very revolutionary.

The Church has always maln- ialned this attitude of Her Found- er. It is true that this equality is emphasised by the Church princip- .i1y in the spiritual order. There gm some temporal aspects of equality that. perhaps. need great- er clarification but it is question- able whether the initiative in things of this nature should be taken by the Church.

Recently. due principally to cor- mn psychologists, there have risen great discussions of women as peo- ple of mystery as unpredictable persond, as a section of the human race that is not subject to or bound

by the laws which govern men. The .

movement has been well described as "the chivalrous illlusion."

This illusion seems to emphasise the spiritual difference of women and to allow them a different eth- ical code. This. Christ never did. The Church here is definitely pre- feminlst. This myth of difference is well exemplified in the code of ”the

L .. gentleman." women almost as if they were de- lenceless 'ldren. Its shortcomings have been well described m follows: "the trouble with the code of the southern gentleman is that no lady is ever a gentleman."

Now the Church has the appar- snt effrontery to think and even

insist that every lady shoulld he-I

. much stronger than women. Unfortunately men use this strength sometimes to molest and tyranise woman. 'i'hey become -brutes and csds. Men are inex- cusable on this score. Yet there are teas and "hen-parties" at which husbands' faults and shortcomipu receive public airing. Men are ex- pected to be chivalrous and uncom- plsining about these. Yet t.he.wom- on are inexcusable here for the law of defamation and revelation of faults binds them no less strictly than it binds men.

Women may be weak but the Church never considers them so weak that such things as blackmail by tears can be allowed them. if a woman cries she can easily escape a well-merited rebuke. Men are not supposed to cry and hence get the rebukes they deserve. They can't avoid scoldings by a copious flow of tears. Women should not resort to such trickery either. However weak women are the Church never consid them too weak to live up to the Commandments and to bear the ' i of transgressing them.

The thing that men don't seem to realize about the babying oi women is that it is an implied in- sult. Women deserve to be treated as adults. There are Girls Rules in golf and hockey but there are no Girls Rules in. the game of life. Hence the Church in insisting on this does not lack derstanding about women. She shows by her at- titude that she works unceasingly for their emancipation. She refuses to consider them as children.

Women have a different temporal

we very frequently hear men say that they will never be able to un- derstand women. It may well be thstthismythof Inylteyisa woman-made wile used bywomen

special. sins allowed them. no spe- cial penances from which they are relieved because of their sex. Such an attitude on the part the Church is the surest guarani of the dignity and equality of women and keeps them from retaining throughout their lives the unlovely mann of spoiled children.

Find Sub - Zero Weather Cuts Down On Penalties

FORONTO. March 3-(OP) - Forty-below-sero teenperstureeere the usual thing when the Arm- strong, Ont.. ngles play hockey on their outdoor rink. Coach Jim Dempsey, who brought, the team to Toronto from their village ill) miles north of Port Arthur, said such temperatures 1 affect the game, even if the mectatora stand- ing in the snow around the rink don't seem to notice it. .

For one thing, he said. penalties are rarities-the Eagles aren't too eager to sit long in the -freeing weather.

i-iockey league officials would be puzzled if they tried to classify the team. Several of the boys are in the 10-year-old bracket while one or two others are twice that use. some of the players are Ind- isn boys and they never worry about birth certificates, anyway.

Heads of lndustrleawere reluct- ant to discuss the matter but it was admitted there had been de- liberate actions tending to slow up production. the story said.

It added that at General Mot- ors there had been toppages in the assembly line because bolts or other pieces of metal had been placed on conveyor belts. And there had been an epidemic of broken doors caused by trucks crashing into them.

In one plant a warning notice was posted to the effect that de- liberate actions to hinder pro-

When liuropeans first reached Florida and Virginie, they found the Indians elaborately tattooed. Though sometimes' prevalent, among the tribes of New nigland, the North American Indians pre- ferred painting as a means of personal adornment and for cere- Inonisl purposes.

The false notion has always existed among white people that Indians donned war paint in or- der to terrify their foes. War paint was used as a camouflage. For exsmple, a warrior who was paint- ed with various colors could con- ceal himself in the shadows of trees and plants more easily. , A painted tcrso was less conspicuous than a naked body. Indians are keen observers of Mother Nature. When they used camouflage to protect them from their enemies and to enable them to approach their foes unseen, they were fol- lowing the example set by Nature when she gave different animals different stripes.

"Keeping up with the Jones" is by no means a recently developed weakneu. Ancient man endured self torture and tattolng, etc., to avoid appearing unusual by their absence.

The taboos of primitive races were, and still are, the results of superstitions. We read about them and remark "Hcw silly." But civi- lized persons are by no means free from them. The savage who ref as to wear a certain colcr be- cause it is taboo may be comps ed to the civilized man who would just as soon Jump into an ice-cold stream as to appear at some swanky event in - overalls. . . In the Republic of Haiti even to- day. farmers going to market will make a wide detour rather than step across two sticks that happen to be crosswise in their path. How many men and women of decent education carry lucky coins or a rabbit's paw on their persons? I once worked for a pro- minent man of Belmont. Msss.. who would never walk under a ladder. never put on his right shoe first. never go out of a house by a different door than the one he'd entered through. And all the mirrors in his home were securely fastened to something Just in case he might break one while handling it.

one may pooh-pooh our super- stitions, may at times even laugh at them. yet, strange but true, there is not, one person in s hun- dred who does not have his or her pet ones. And when it comes to tabocs. we have just as many as the wildest savage who ever lived. So- ciety foik have a habit of calling their taboos fancy names such as "e . customs. wu entions." and such like for the simple truth that they can find no reason for their existence.

It will perhaps take centuries of years of education to free . man- kind of his peculiar taboos. In the meantime. we shall continue to eat our oysters only during the months that have "R." in them.

Lenten Meditations FATIIEBIIOOD OF GOD (The London Times)

one fundamental of Christianity exemplifies the fact. also evident in art, invention. and scientific theory, that great advance is often conditioned by successful simplific- ation.

In primitive religions numerous sods, everything concerning them and man's approach to them, are intricate subjects of obscure and expert knowledge. That the ulti- mate power is one. a nu. ,” reached along different lines by Greek and Hebrew. was a great simplification.

The prophet Micah's famous declaration (vi, 6-8) was another tuming-point. settling before man once for all the right road. Christ's revelation was an even more cp- och-making simplification. . It is not enough that man shcu live up to his ideal of righteous- ness if the ideal be defective. Nor can a wholly right personal attit- ude of the soul towards God be attained until man has reached the highest conception of God. and one in which reason, imagination. and emotion combine.

In both respects Christ's teach- ing is a profound simplification. To love one's neighbour as oneself is at once simplified and deepened when a right spirit within man to- wards all other men brings them all within the definition of neigh- bour. To "love the Lord thy God" was no new commandment; but Christ saw that this was possible only if God is realized as one whom men cannot only love but who in- spires love.

It has been emphasized that in naming God as Father, Jesus was not 0I'iliinE1- Quite half a dozen instances of the use of the word can be found in earlier Jewish thought. As well point out that Zeus in Homer is called Father. and that in the Latin Jupiter it is part of the derivation of the name. It cannot be or less than set pur- pose that Christ uses it, not as one of a string of titles but vo- ly; and that so much of his teach- ing illustrates its implications. In so far as God is better than the best of men. so far will his tttitude transcend that of the best human parent.

The life and character of God have been of greater import. it may be theoretically possible for man to conceive, but it is not pos- sible imaginatlvey to realize the nature of God as soaring far above the best embodied righteousness he has known. r
