BRINGING CHRIST TO THE NATIONS Saint Louis, Missouri, Mar ch 21, (Special) “The Holy Week' change from Palm Sun day’s acclaim of Christ to Good Friday’s rejection finds its greatest modern parallel in the present day sabotage of the Christian faith,” Dr. Walter A. Mair, professor at Concordia Seminary, declared Here today in an international broadcast over the Lutheran Hour. “Mul titudes who generations ago were mobilized under the bat tle of Christ’s cross,” he said, “are now parading under the red flag of sworn hostility to heaven. This new skeptism,” he maintained, “has far out stripped the French Revolut ion.” The worst is yet to come, Dr. Maier predicted, asserting that a period of severe financ ial readjustment must come and that this will be a Roman holiday for the agents' of athe ism. “Now”, he added, “is the time for churches in the Unit ed States to plan an all out pro gram for counteracting the fi FORMER OMAHAN DEAD Clarence “Curly” Session was found dead February 24, at his appartment, 261 West 45th Street, New York City, N.

Schauland, Pastor Sunday School .. 10:00 A-M. Sunday Worship . . 11:00 A.M. Easter has come and gone. To many, Easter meant little more than new bonnets, rab bits, colored eggs, and the af ternoon dress parade on Main Street. To many others it was the day on which they must go to church even though they go no other Sunday. Churches are usually well filled on Easter Sunday. However^ if people have learned to know the true meaning of Easter Sunday, they will be found in church worshipping their risen Savior every Sunday of the year. The values of Easter, therefore, can not be estimated nutil the con gregation is counted on the following Sunday. No one who understands the meaning and benefits of Christ’s resurrect ion will say after the Easter services: “Thank God, that’s done ;now I don’t have to go to church again until next Eas ter.” Hope Lutheran bids you welcome and invites you t o join its worship every Sunday in order that true and lasting Easter joy maybe yours here in time in all the ages of eter nity. We also invite you to hear God’s word daily, Monday thr ough Friday, at 9:00 a. m. over . KSWI 1560. This program is known as “The Daily Chapel”. A Daily Chapel Calendar list? ing of speakers for each day will be mailed to you upon re quest. Address your request to “The Daily Chapelv, Frank and Perrin Sts., Council Bluffs, Iowa. , rst religious persecutions this country will experience.” “One effective antidote to the advantage of grim godless ness, “the radio speaker main tained. “is the rededication to the message of Holy Week, which the love of God has shown by Christ’s self-sacrific ing on the cross.” He stated, “Let this be pledged and be lieved with the fervor of the new faith, and Communism will collapse in its own ruin. History has shown that the Halleluja Chorus sung by sm all bands of believers had de feated hate-chanting unbeliev ers. The darkness which cover ed the world for three hours on the first Good Friday is paralled by the blackness of sin and suffering which has engulfed the globe for the last three years, the suffering of hatred and tyranny unparal leled in American history. This can be banished only when men believe the Almighty, pen itently acclaim the Savior, and prayerfully seek to walk in his way. ” Visitors From Chicago Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Scott of Chicago, 111. attended Easter services at Clair Chapel and were well pleased with the ser mon by Reverand J. E. Wade. SUN RISE PAGEANT Rev. R. W.

By Mary Ann Knowit Most of us are always very happy to see Spring and sum mer come, but the girls are par ticularly glad ths year because when the heavy coats come off they will have the opportunity of letting the opposite sex see just how beautiful the “new look” really is. Yes, all winter some of the boys have shown their object ions to our longer skirts, but I guarantee that by next fall even they will be all-out for them. Right now we all have our minds on that cute ballerina skirt with the ruffled petticoat, i It’s beautiful, but don’t be so 5 fascinated by it that you will forget that captivating litte j sack dress that created so much excitement early last winter. This dress is liked by all because it’s chic. It has the new length. It’s inexpensive and anyone, with or without i sewing experience can made j it in less than a day! Another - exciting thing about this “jiffy i dress,” as it is commonly cal led, is its versatility. For office 1 wear buy chambray, gingham I or broadcloth. For that “date” I get linen, crepe, pique or spun rayon. For an evening gown ! get tubular jersey or silk. Yes, j this little dress can be made to ! wear for any occasion. Cuffs | and collars may be attached. , Blouses can be worn beneath Or, wear it simply as is. Be cause it is so simple1 in design i your choich of bracelet, belt and necklace play a very def inite part in the finished pro duct. For your office dress, there are numerous leather belts either with studs, emb lems or design that the come ly. For your “date” dress, use a belt of the same material but different in color. For your ev ening gown, wear a gold or sil ver kid belt. Anyway you ch oose you will find this little dress an important number in your wardrobe this summer. ' The amount of dresses vou may have in this pattern does not matter, for a difference in j material makes an entirely dif ferent dress. If you need assistance with this dress, send, with ten cents a legal size envelope to Home Sewing Bureau, 400 Manhat tan Ave. New York. 26, N. Y., | Suite 4 and you will receive a very helpful pamphlet. - X WAITER’S COLUMN By H. W. Smith The Regis Hotel and White Horse Inn waiters are in the front line on service.

YOUR FAMILY’S FOOD By Mrs. Evelyn Halm Red Cross Nutrition Director Home Grown Meat With meat prices on the up swing again, budgeUminded menu planners are in a “dither What to serve in \place of ex pensive meats seems to be the perennial guestion for many of us. he following information from the United States Depart ment of Agriculture may offer some timely suggestions :— Home- grown rabbit meat can aid family meals and bud gets thus year when supplies of other meat are expected to be shorter. Families in anv vil lage or town where poultry raising is permitted can keep rabbits and provide for a year round supply of this white, delicately flavored, nutritious meat. National Rabbit W e e k, March, 28 to April 3 is a rem inder to thrifty families that a few rabbits—three or four does and a buck of breeding age — purchased this spring will provide fryers by summer when other meat is less plent iful. Any surplus may be pre served by freezing or canning, producers today make a pro fitable business of selling dres sed young rabbit meat, fresh, and in frozen form, in open faced cartons. Domestic rabbit meat is all white, like breast of chicken, entirely different from wild rabbit, and in season at any time of the year. Domestic rab bits do not have the disease tularemia. In western states where rabbit raising in an ex tensive industry rabbit meat sells at meat markets and is served regularly in hotels, rest I aurants and the home. Young rabbit like young i chicken is cooked by the quick i methods of frying or boiding. . Rabits may also be stuffed and 1 roasted. Older meat is excel- i lent for fricassee, casseroles, I rabbit pie, salad, chop suey, and other dishes made from mature chicken. Barbecued ra bbit is a favorite western dish. j GENIUS MARGARET TO 1 PLAY 50 CONCERTS IN FALL. Chicago—Four year old Mar garet Harris, local colored girl j who amazed the most harden ed music critics with her ex ecution of complicated classi cal selections is declared in the April issue of Negro Digest to be performing at least fifty con certs this Fall. Little Margaret, who be came famous as the result of a church recital performed at | the age of three, is not at all j excited at the prospect of this extended concert tour one full | year before she enters the kin dergarden, Negro Digest says. Rather, the talented moppet is more worried a'bout the wel fare of her battered doll, Roz arian. This doll is the one that ' Margaret always perches on I the music shelf of her piano while she is playng. I “There’s nothing precocius about Margaret,” the article states. “Except for her aston ishing musical talent, she’s as normal as any of her playmates She’s demure, as a four year old should be. She’s not sub ject to tantrums, as some spoil ed four year olds are. She mak es no bid for extra attention.” SCALDED M r. Dewey Allen, 6 5, of 2516 Maple St. was scalded yesterday a t the city jail, were he is employed. He was removing a pot of potatoes from the stove and accidently tipped it over and scalded his left wrist and hand, he was treated by the nurse and re mained at w’Ork. ARRESTED FOR VAGRANCY Thaddius Baker was arrect ed for vagrancy and giving signs to another party in a known gambling establish ment, 1812 North 24th street, in the event a cop were to appear on the scene. But Baker said, Y“ou« Hon or, I was not giving signals, as I was only sitting in a car waiting for my friend to come back who had been riding me around, as I have been sick with asthma and have been unemployed. I was blowinlg my nose and the wind was blowing, and it may have seemed as I was signaling, but I was not.” (Your Honor turned his head and smiled.) CIVIL RIGHTS I Mr. A.
