SIL-lDOWED DAYS

By l Journalist

,A_deep shadow lies over human life in these times, It does not touch those only who are despondent. or those with special and intimate rea- sons for vitixiety; lil a greater or less degree. its reach extends to every one and everyihing. There are peo- ple who as yet find their normal routine but little altered. but even to them each nrorniirg tneans when they a\ritke a return to conscious- ness that things‘ are very wrong. that. tlrehuppy zest with which they looked forward to the days work and pleasures has departed. That feeling has a source much deeper than merely selfish regrets and wor- ries. 1t springs from an underlying conviction that things ought. not so to_ be. that Christianity and civiliz- ation should not have come to this pass, that science is being hideously misused. that right conduct has proved itself the one path to hau- giness, and that from this path the

unran race has wandered far. Whatever form of sensible diversion we try. the shadow still lurks. and we cirnnot escape: frctn it for long.

None the less. consolation can be found in this experience when it is riglitlv estimated Oppresslve t-hotrgh the shadow seems. it is the reflec- tion of spiritual truth. If in some respects mankind seems to have made little progrem. at least it no longer acquiesces in the fact of war as an inevitable or even desirable oc- currence. The spiritual conscious- ness is in this respect. more alert than it was in bygone ages. The shadow is clue to a sense of failure. and the sense of failure makes us ashamed in a. ivay that would be im- possible hard the spiritual element in our nature been atroohied.

A shadow never makes itself: in- lubstnntial though it is, it gives clear evidence of real substance in the background. and the shadows

darkening our mood and outlook now testify to the reality of those spiritual truths and. desires of which the shadows are reflections. ln the noble imagery of the Old Testament. God guided his people not only by fire but by a cloud. and “I would not have you ignorant." wrote St. Paul centuries later. “how that our fathers were all under the cloud. and were all baptimd in the cloud." Per- haps these again are days when our nation and others are being "bap- tized in the cloud." so that in the shade and darkness of the present some new and vastly better mode of life. some far worihier devotion to -Sod and his truth. mav find their

_ Consolation may be found likewise in the thought that shadows do not endure. They are. indeed, the very type, of inipermanerice. No one can predict with assurance when tho darkness now enveloping the nations will be removed. Only it is possible to be certain that devout prayer will hasten that time and that. sooner or later. confidence in God will prove to have been fully justi- fied. Because. however heavy it seems. the shadow is no more than a shadow: it must pass. Upon this thought.» for our encouragement. an- other will follow. If there were no sun there could be no shadow: the falling of the heavy shadow across the path is final proof that overhead the Sllll shines. '

Therefore not only through dark days. but indeed because the days are dark. faith can find full reason for its persistence. It will be con- tent to look down when it has also looked up: it will not. shrink from the path before its feet when it has remembered the heaven above. Either in this stage of existence or another. every life which trusts God will pass into the sunshine. It is enough to rest on that certainty. to await the fulfilment of a promise that cannot be broken, to endure in love and. patience "until the day break and the shadows flee away."

The Duchess selected a. fine. black wool frock buttoning from shirt collar to hem. Fashioned with long, bell sleeves. s sash fie belt, two patch pockets on the skirt and one left-hand breast pocket. It was simple but well tail- ored and flattering.

The Ditches of Kent's daughter, Princess Alexandra, is following in her mother's footsteps as a Direc- tor of Fashion. Her little frocks are copied from photographs by women buying or dr-emmakin-g for their evacuated children.

The Princesses’ clothes are bought in one of London's big shops, er coupons are handed in. Many of her frocks are made in dupli- cates by her- devoted "Nanny." for the Duchess along with other Brit- ish women is economical.
