What Sacrifice For God and
Cou11try HaYe You Made
Only two short weeks of the Lenten seaftOn
remain. Now is the time to examine
ou1· records, so that. improv.emcnl! or nd~
ditions may be mode i( neceS&~~ry. Especinlly
at thia crucial point in the world
conflict should we strive to pray harder
nnd perform mo•·e good \Vo•·ks; not only
tor our own benefit. but for the wellare
and well-being of those in combat, and (or
victory at the very earliest date possible.
'!'he simlltu·ity betw11en the ecnson of
Lent and a JlCriod of world conflict is great.
During both times do we find greater numbeno
of men turning to God beseeching
ll is graces nnd mercy upon His crcatUl·cs.
Both are times of increased praye1· and
sacrifice. However, the great difference lies
in the fact that during a war we '""make
llllCTifices'' because we have to. Either n
oontJllete •b•cnee of a material thing or
government. regulation forces us to "give
it up.'' Also. our prayers are more li3ble
to be prayer• of petition than of contrition
or adoration. Lent is a period of vohmtar)'
sacrifice. Only our conscience can compel
111 to perform acto of mortification. It is
entirely up to the individual. Too, our
IH'Ryers dul'ing this season HI'C usually
directed toward acts or contrition. Thus,
we see that a war and Lent c.an. but may
not, produce similar results.
~ child•·en, many of us ClUne to associate
the wo1·d "Lent•' with "giving up." \Ve
·•gave up'' candy, ice eream or otber manterial
pleasures th•t ordinarily brought
us happiness and satisfaction. When we
g1·ew older, we began to ••s.acrifice.u \Ve
16&acrificed" that extra hour of 1leep in the
morning in order to ott<lnd Mo..s. We
'"sncrificed" u Jl ieasnnt hnll houo· chat with
our friends, and spent it instead with Our
Lord in tbe Blessed Sac ram enl.
However, it was not until our eounlr)t
became engnged in thia world-wide struggle
t hat mnny of us came to know for the
fint. time the real meaning of "sacrifice."
As we read the daily dispatches (rom the
battle fronts nnd sean carefully the ever
go·owing casunlty list.s, we hove before us
constantly concrete examples of "saeri~
flee."
What is one hour's sleep to us. when we
think of the many servicemen who go !or
days without rest until they are ftnaUy
overwhelmed with exhaustion! Are we
doing so very much in giving up iee cream
or candy, when th~1·e arc those thou:mnds
who were (and still are) living on little or
nothing in prison camps throughout the
world!
Yes. wot· is n time of c.liscomfo•·t. ond
hardship; but Lent should be a period of
even more intense sacrifice. For us on the
home Cront, it is Rn excellent opportunity
to "pay bnck," ut lenst spiritually, those
who nrc sacrificini so much for us.
A. R. C. ----- S. 0 . S.
Today on islands in the Pncitic and on
the European fo·ont men are undergoing
great hardships. Even after victory hu
been attained and tbe soldiers have returned
these conditions will be retained in
their minds. However, mitigating these
memoriea will be the memory of what lhe
American Red Croes did for them at this
time.
The American Red Cross--a J>owerful
organization in peace time Cor alleviating
human suffering - now has come lo the
front a• the greatest humanitarian Ioree
in the world.
Now it is our turn to help. We oftentimes
!eel as i( we are doing nothing to
bring victory closer. Now is our chance!
By giving to the Hed Cross you a•·e directly
bringing comfort to the American soldier.
Because of its extensive work, the Red
Cross needs much financial assistance. It
costs it $7.00 per second to exist. Tbis
means that Rochester, with a quota of
$1,232,000, has to finance the Red Cross
for only 60 hours.
Surely each and every student of Natcareth
College should be able to finance at
least 1/7 of a second. U you don't have
the money •·ight now, give UJl going to the
movies for a week and give that dollar lo
the Red Cross. You won't regret iL

he advocated n school system that
would not try to force l cao·ning upon young
minds. but rather n period o! training
which would lead up to real mental development
and thought provocation in adulthood.
The mos~ hopeful sign along this
way Is the organitaUon of adult reading

THE PINK RIBBON
By MARGARET MARY MALOY
Much ltas been said about buses and
bus happenin~ts and I hnve scoffed and
silently laughed, thinking it mere table
and street talk. That is, 1 did until the
other aft-ernoon. This day was indeed an
awakener.
Whnt instinct hithet·to bw·ied in muck
has the bus bt·ought out of the normal human?
Because of waa· shortages almost
evcl'yone has been fol'Ced between those
rubber-edged doors at some time or other.
It seems to me that the bus passenget·
falls unreservedly under the :Collowing two
categories-he is either a jolly extrovert
Lull of the joke, which he insists be univet
·sally enjoyed (at least his tone of voice
implies this). o•· he is the Mean Raspcr,
who may again be subdivided into the silnnt
and the non-silent.
These peo1>le who before the bus were
frustrated and unable to cope with their
inne1· problems, now are nb1e to give vent
and air them before t he bus world.
The oth er day a group of us got on the
homewat·d bound Pittsford bus. tired after
one of tl>osc pa1·ticula.-Jy tr)'ing days that
have lately resulted from the time of examination.
While passing down the nisle
~ward my usual back,vard place, I noticed
a rather winter-worn individual with assorted
t>arceJs includ ing several unwrapped
celery sU.lks, sitting in the front seat. T
usually f a il to note my fellow passenget·s
until l ntyself am seated and ananged.
This sou l, however, was buried in a ga1··
ntent of s uch peculiarity that it could not
miss my eye. It was an enormous eoat of
some nondescriptive fur-it hypnotized n1e
from the first.
Seating ourselves. we t'esumed OUl" convc•-
sation and settled back fot· an endurable
ride toward oux sweet goal.
Nearing B•·ighton, we wer~ suddenly
startled b~, u wrat hful sound emitted as
though in. li violent rage-looking up I saw
my ft·iend of the coa t evidently arguing
with the driver of the bus.
Tbe latter (whom we shall call Louie),
in a quite violent lone was addressing the
coaL
"You pay tbe 20c or you don't get off
this bus."
The co:at, who at this point I disliked intensely,
because of a gutternl giggle he
was constantly emitting, refused to pny.
His argUlment was fragmentat·y. It seems
that his desil·es had been adverse to the
ride to P ittsford just completed. and thus
be considered his financial debt to be nonexistent.
I myself could laugh at this, because
the mornings are of defin ite pulrality
that J am minus the desire to follow
the Pittsfot·dian path-and yet I do and
pay for it too.
Anywa·y, nly moth~eaten f1;end and the
drivel" being of equal determination, the
inevitable deadlock came.
Louie, with a maddened sob, j erked the
bus to a stop and t uming around. s houted:
"This bus is going no forther until you
pay the twenty cents. What a miserable
SJ>ecimen of humanity you turned out to
be! It's people like you that at·e making
life miserable fot· everyone else."
These accusations which would be a
challenge to any noroHtl mortal, or if not
that at least a cause of shame, left our
friend of the coat unmoved. He just kept
foolishly nodding his head and giggling as
though to intimate that his oppent being a
loon was not worth the treuble of an argument.
1 am not by nature an egg-thrower, but
at that moment had one been convenient.
ly placed in my hand I would have been
more than tempted to toss it 1·ight into
that hate<! face.
The driver's face was an affirmative
traffic-ligbt hue at this point. J was alarmed
fot· fear n stroke would end him.
Suddenly his voice softened and in a
sob-racked tone he tried an npt>cnl to the

most outstanding living composer. He
opened a brilliant concert season at the
Eastman theater including seven of the
world's finest conductors.

Hem 2: Which might b.-ing us to the
difference between Fashiofl and Style.
These two a.re never synonymous. Fashion
is two OJ' three famous names sitting in a
chromium-plated office, deciding that the
beautiful model, 5'11 '', 120 pounds, looks
absolutely stunn ing in the pink satin with
dn~pe and especially against the tigerstrtped
background. Th.,re fore, the fash ion
for l\liss and Mrs. Ame•·ica, 5'4~', 125
POUl\ds. must be pink satin against the
background of t he 3rd Annual Ladies Aide
Society Saue.-Ju·aut Supper or Central
High's Junior Prom. But Style is something
else. Style is that inner something in
Miss or Ml'S. America which, while she is
ecstatically exclniming over the glot-y of
the satin, reminds her thHt. her hair is too
red and the dress too pink or t hat she is
short and plump, t hat this is just not for
het·. Style is that intangible magic which
makes one woman stand out in a room
ct·owded with women, all eq ually welldt-
essed. It is that which makes a handtailot
·ed, $150 s uit look wretched on one
person and makes anothet· in n ready-made
$80 suit resemble a pictUI·e from Vogue.
Style is in everyone, and in everyone it
is strictly personal and individuating, the
thing being t hat some have developed it
more than others. But regardless of this,
without it, the whole idea of Fashion would
be rather futile.
