predominate our interest turns to the women of norway whose country has be- come the latest victim of nazi aggression our sympathy goes out to hem as they hear the booming of enemy guns at their gates see their homes destroyed or dodge death raining from the skies the norwegian women are blueeyed and tall with a larger pro portion of blondes than any other race they have directness charm and spontaneity and combine the mysticism of the celts with dogged per severance to these descendants of victorious vikings freedom is their most- cherished possession and the underlying characteristic of all thelr instltutlons r religion evangelical lutheran is a fundamental factor in their lives it may be less visible and tangible than in many countries but nevertheless spiritually stronger and deeper the women of norway were among the first in europe to gain the franchise ub07 and although they have only one member in the stortling parl they have taken an important part in the administrative life of the country it is largely owing to them that norway has the most ad vanced social legislation in the world the unpardonable sin is idleness there is no aristocracy as in england nor are there any clubwomen or society women as we know them in america no matter how wealthy the wife is a good house keeper and cook and teaches her daughter to be likewise in the larger cities fine new apartments for the poor have been built around bright inner courtyards end for the higher paid workers there are modern garden villages with each cottage set in rts own garden these have added much to the attractiveness of life for the housewife there are no slums and the excellent sanitary conditions are reflected in the low death rate women have a tained real equality with men in almost every sphere and intermingle with them freely even when engaged to be married feminine culture has developed rapidly domestic arts and crafts jiave attained a high level the theatre and concert are

ing the past two months for the men of the canadian forces and for distribution by the red cross societies of war torn europe but splendid as the response of voluntary workers has been there must be no slackening of effort if the red cross is to be in a position to meet all emergencies as they arise only recently mrs wallace campbell national chairman of the women s war work committee sent an urgent appeal to women throughout he dominion to continue knitting articles for the men of the fighting forces there must be no letup in knitting socks scarves sweaters and helmets she stated tit i

t i t let me remind you taking responsibility do you assume responsibility that is not rightfully yours i am not referring to the capable dominating type of person whose greatest joy is to take charge who loves to be president or convener of the com mittee or direct action in an emergency i am thinking now of the timid person who probably shrinks from the limelight but yet is always afraid things may not be done quite right ind feels that she must check and doublecheck on the actions of others cant you imagine a woman of this type saying did you rernvm- ber to turn out the lights youve only fifteen minutes to get dressed or youll be late did you forget to call mrs jones about the meeting are you sure its alright to park here she is the backseat driver who watches for the red lights and bicycles ahead and traffic from the ride streets and forgets entirely the driver is probably quite experienced and not more anxious than she is to risk his life or a fine she is a worrier who unconsciously shows lack of confidence in the people with whom she comes in contact and yet would hotly deny this fact if it were brought to her attention such a woman is usually ery conscientious about her own job and gives careful attention to the minutes details and naturally she does often find that others are not quite as reliable she therefore feels she must constantly watch to see hat their job has not been neglected but ae will probably lose many hours sleep and worry herself into a nervous depressed condition taking the responflibilitj that belongs elsewhere we all love a person who is keen and interested and enthusiastic bttt is it nqt better to save that interest ana enthusiasm for your own work or hobbies or pleasures it makes for a much more attractive personality news in

an ally of war politics predicted the dawn of a thousand years of peace through the league of nations but jealousy and greed scattered the dream twenty five hundred years ago mlcah publicly proclaimed his faith in religion as the only adequate security for peace the knowledge of the will of god and obedience to the leading of god alone could cure the fear hate and greed that lead to war through worship teaching and coop erative brotherhood rising above na tionalism world peace alone could come today there are many people who still hold mlcah s faith asserting that god s grace working in human hearts can lift us above the strife or the jungle and create a world brother hood in christ many christian peo ple would prefer to be wrong with ml cah than right with modem dictators
