AN EASTER MESSAGE GOD AND YOU BY CHARLES STELZLE Just as God swung in the stars in the heavens when the world was young so that men might not stumble in the dark, sc in these latter days He is sending forth illumined souls so that they may light the way for troubled, tempest-tossed travelers on the highways of life. They are God’s prophets and interpreters. A Religion that is growing needs interpreters. A Religion that is static needs only scribes. What Religion has to say to the world today, can also feel the needs of tomorrow. , For Religion that is to satisfy the needs of men in an expanding world must not only deal with the problems of today — it must be prophetic of the future. No where is it promised that in life we shall be free from all cares and burdens. These are sure to come in the day-by-day journey along the pilgrim road. But God plainly offers a chal lenge to men. He wants men who have been made perfect through suffering. The whole world is crying out for the leadership of men who are mad of martyr-stuff, but who do not speak of their martyrdom. It seeks men who are ready to tread the “wine press of sorrow,’’ but who* will do so with joy in their hearts. It is because of such that “God goes marching on.” , Man is incurably religious. His religious spirit is accounted for by the fact that he finds himself in a world governed by order ly forces. All about him are signs of unity and purpose, reveal ing Will and Mind that are infinite. All primitive peoples have sought an explanation of this mystery, and their finite interpre tation became the basis of their worship. ' The answer is still being sought in other fields, but no more satisfactory solution has been found than that given by Religion—that back of the arm of Omnipotence is theg reat heart of a loving Father. mm f mimmn *»+♦♦♦♦?*»♦•♦♦»+•••»»♦»•••••+•••»•••#•••••»••••+•♦< THY NEIGHBOR Life is made up, not of great sacrifices or duties, but of little things, in which smiles and kindnesses and small obligations, given habitually, are what win and preserve the heart and secure comfort.—Sir Humph rey Davy, English chemist, 1778-1829. Who is thy neighbor? He whom thou has power to aid or bless; Whose aching heart or burning brow thy soothing hand may press. Thy neighbor? 'Tis the fainting poor whose eye with want is dim. Oh, enter thou his humble door, with aid and peace for him. ) Thy neighbor? He who drinks the cup when sorrow drowns the brim; With words of high sustaining hope, go thou and comfort him. Thy neighbor? ’Tis the weary slave, fettered in mind and limb; He hath no hope this side the grave; go thou and ransom him. Thy neighbor? Pass no mourner by; perhaps thou canst redeem A breaking heart from misery; go share thy lot with him. —Author Unidentified. The skull of an infant contains more bones than the skull of an adult.

PRESERVE THE AMER ICAN SYSTEM “The people who are doing the aoet to hasten the advent of eoa nnnism and faadaa are not the agitators and radicals, but the short-sighted eaployera who re fuse to recognise organised labor. When the eaplojrera of this coun try frankly and openly reaove all obstacles to the organisation of labor, and are willing to ait down and talk over the probleas of in dustry with representatives of or ganised labor, then we shall have avoided finally and definitely the aenace of coaaunisa and fasdsa. And we shall have preserved the American systea, the systea of de mocracy in operation. The great bulwark of denocracy in the United States is the organised labor aove aent, and it was never aore ia portant than it is today."—Rev. J. W. R. Maguire. LABOR PRESS The St. Louis Labor Tribune, editorially carried the following lead editorial, March 9, which is being reproduced in its entirety, without conunent: SOME QUESTIONS FOR LABOR OFFICIALS ON THE LABOR PRESS Samuel Goa perm, the George Washington of the Labor Move aent on numerous occasions proclaimed his faith in the Labor Press and strongly emphasised the necessity of giving it aural and financial subscription support. He acknowledged that such a preso is essential to the very existence of the Labor Movement. No one in the Moveaent has ever had the teaerity to challenge this proposition of Saaael Goapers. The preaise being true, namely that the support of your Labor Press is essential, it follows as the day follows that you should give such support to your labor paper. It is the duty of every union member to keep informed upon autters pertaining to Organised Labor in his community and the nation. The only way this can be done is to be a subscriber and learn the facts through habitual reading of you labor weekly. It is not enough to keep in touch with the activities of you own national or international union because Labor can only prosper through active unity and co-operation among all its branches. There is no excuse whatever for any official of a labor union not subscribing to a labor newspaper in his community. He should be a paid subscriber. He should pay for his labor paper jut as he pays for his daily newspaper, and not expect it gratuitously. We direct these few pertinent queries to every Labor official in this way: Are you a paid subscriber to the local Labor Pressr If not, why aren't you? If you ue a subscriber, why do you not eneouage your rank and filers to subscribe and like yourself be kept informed of activities which affect the general and particular interests of everyone in the Labor Movement? The correct answer to these queries is the proof of your sincerity and the measure of your in telligence in the value of a constructive Labor Organ to the Move r CHARLOTTE | FrL—Sat^J THpvUfc* /y A 7ouc4do%v>t me ... n in Ail-Amencai Uff Show if the Ceitiry!

C. — The shrewdest political observers in the nation’s capital, gathered together at the annual dinner of the White House Correspondents’ association to Presi dent Roosevelt, ridiculed John L. Lewis’ pretensions to political power. In a newsreel shown to the diners the various presidential possibilities were depicted. One of the biggest laughs came when Senator ^heeler of Montana was pictured kissing ba bies to get votes and then receiving the “kiss of death” from the leader of the CIO.
