Lenten lteditdtlone from The Londc .1 Times Till CBILDLIKI SPIRIT When our Lord said "Eitcept ye ee convened, and become as little children, ye shall not, enter into the kingdom of heaven.’ His words must have come as somethinl 17¢ I . chock to many who heard them. for . childlikenees was scarcely a char-l ‘* 1cteristic of the religious leaders ; “The common . of that day! Y" H people heard Him gladly because they could understand Him. He paid little attention to the nice- ties of legal dogma or to rigid rules of life. He lifted religion into an entirely new atmosphere;- for him its marks were love. com-: passion, simplicity. the spirit 0H service. llules were of value onlyl u they subserved the spirit and} helped to set nun free from themj selves. _ I The aim oi true religion, it may. be said, is to enable men to become l spiritually mature — which is; chiefly what perfection means. But‘ the childlike spirit can be retain- ed in maturity: indeed it is an ee~ sentiel element in it. Our Lord did not mean that men should not be- come in new sense of the wordi adult, nor that there is no place in religion for the fullest exercise of - mature thought. He was clearly‘ referring to the essential qual-i lties of the child. which. once lost. can be regained only by that radi- cal change which Recalls con- Version. The childlike spirit is the spirit of receptivity. of simplicity; it is unselfconscioua. spontaneous: it is marked by a faith which believes ell things to be possible. though it is not to be confused with credulity. nor with the uncritical acceptance of the slogan. But especially Christ speaks of this spirit as characterized by humility —"Who- soever therefore shall humble him- self as this little child"—-by which is meant not that exegerated self- riopreciation which never rings tnie. and which is frequently an inverted form of pride. whose pos- sessor must excel even in worth- lessness, but a frank and courage- ous acceptance of one’s own limita- , tlons and failures. ' It would be of value to make the contemplation and achievement of the childlike spirit, as it is seen in the life and teaching of our Lord. one of the chief "intentions" of this Lenten season. Such e spirit. combined as it must be with the accumulated wisdom of experience, will contribute a freshness and a. hopefulness to the common life which will be a powerful regener- ating force as men set themselves to the task of rebuilding a shat- tered world. ‘Misnr As wsu.

This is not because there ere more good wives than there are Iood husbands. or ” wives are more smi- eble and sweet-tempered and agreeable to live with than husbands are. It is because womonheve dis- covered that if their meninges do not come up to all of their romantic. girlish dreams, there is en easy way out through the divorce court. with a bonus in the shape of alimony handed out to them a they go. _ln a word. they can eat their wedding cake and still ve . . ~80 we have the t. multitude ‘of wives who get divorcee from their their ” ‘ ’ don't ’ them or their husbands take them for granted. or their hueben ‘s don't want to take them eteppingyout every night. or their husbands insist on having a dog and they don't like dogs. or their husbands oomph about their cooking, or their husbands are guilty of the unspeakable cruelty of thinking it is Just as much a wife's duty to be a good housekeeper as it is for the husband to be l- good provider. Not one of these women who'get divorcee on frivolous pretexts. would dream of leaving their bed and board if they knew they had to roll up their sleeves and go to work at e. hard job for a boas who would be ten times more cantankerous than e. husband. They want freedom. but with the alimony check coming in every month. Without it. they would stay put. ' No one can deny that in many easel divorce is Just as m/uch a “y as the surgeon's knifc that cuts away s cancerous sore. No wmnan is under any obligation to con-tinue to live with e husband who is a brute who mistreatshernor to condone the infidelity of the phllanderer who humiliates her with his affairs. but certainly some- thing sladuld be done to curb the activities of the women who make marriage a holdup game and divorce e. racket. And it seems to me that the best way to do that would be that for every women who asks for a divorce to be required to show. through credible witnesses. that she had been a good wife and made n. reason- able attempt to get along with her husband. For -it would be as un- Just to refuse to give the woman, who had worked as hard inside of her home as her husband had outside of itsnd done as much to help build up his prosperity. l. fair share of his property. as it is to force the man whose wife has been nothing but a curse to hlsn to spend the bal- ance of his life supporting her. Oertainiv our divorce laws need overhauling, and if they stated that an able-bodied, childless wife had either to get along with her husband or go to work. there wouldn't need to be many more pro-. visions to the code. ruomuua smut icoors cornea said the colored JAM FILLED QOITIE RING 2 cups sifted flour 4 teaspoons baking powder 1.6 tatgaspoon sags‘ 690mm ortmint. i6 cup milk "Brothers."
