personal grace to every citizen of that de mocracy With its motto Unity without uniformity brotherhood for peace and freedom live it Support it Brotherhood Week stresses an ideal whose emphasis should carry throughout the en tire year- If we cannot establish a deep conviction of brotherhood within our own lives it is difficult to see how we can honestly advo cate the concept of tolerance and brotherhood on a world scale The principle that all men are brothers must be practiced in our daily lives days a year for it to acquire a deep reality Through ages this ideal of equality has been recognized by the principal religions but the history of mankind points up the fact that too often lip service has been paid to this recogni tion Cornelia Otis Skinner termed prejudice crime It is a crime against the democratic ideal a crime against the teach of Christianity Judaism and the other great religions a crime against human decency and a crime against just plain common sense she said Each of us is responsible con tinued Miss Skinner directly or indirectly if not for its incep tion at least for the continuance of its presence in our world to day We are responsible because of our apathy in sidestepping the issue because of our out moded attitude because of our kidding ourselves with the pre posterous fable that it is a spe cial problem to be solved by the special persons

life amid wild Arctic wastes Frosted winds Jay scherzos gay On wires stretched tight along the way While trees sway and spread their branches Like ballerinas in some strange ethereal dances At night like wanderers In a snowfoam sea Each house with eyes gold bright Winks impishly at neighbors eyes alight The stars that in summer beam In winter twinkle with an impish gleam Seeming in branches caught Like diamonds in a veil a queen had bought The moon in shining splendor throws A golden pathway down across the snows And the sun with lavish hand Sprinkles brilliants the land RED CROSS SEWING
