Fred Z. - I'm the one who has to look at her, and I know what I like. e Im Z. - It may lound silly to be complaining that my Lenten Message By RICHARD CARDINAL CUSHING Archbishop of Boston (Written for UPI) The holy season of Lent is a time of prayer and penance in commemoration of the pas sion and death of Our Blessed Lord. He suffered and died for our sins. We all had a part in His agony in tjie Gar den of Gethsemane, in His crucifixion and in all the phases of the tragedy of Cal vary. He died for the sins of all mankind. We are not guiltless of His passion and death. During the holy season of Lent we are expected to make reparation for our guilt and to pledge our loyalty to Christ and Him crucified by avoid ing sin in the future. The test of our sorrow for sin is our purpose of amendment. Personal sanctification, al though a tremendously per sonal thing, does not exclude our resnonsihilities as nur brother's keeper. We must 1 love our neighbor as ourself. Everyone today is our neighbor. We, the followers of Christ, in the free and prosperous land of America should prac tice during the Lenten season poverty of spirit, the abandon ment of luxury; we should follow the way of the cross, and a program of total detach ment from the materialism of our day. This is the only proof we can give to the world that we are not part of the ma terialistic philosophy of the times, that Americans are not money-mad and without spirit ual ideals. We belong to a nation under God. Our traditions are root ed in the knowledge and love of God. But God's ways are not our ways. We carry the cross of Christ or we wear the dollar sign of luxury. During the present Lenten season we must prove to the world by deed and not rhetoric, that we live to work for God and neighbor. That is freedom. We do not work to live. That is slavery. Lent is a challenge to live to work for God; for our sanctification and for our neighbors, i.e., for those in greatest need.

Entertainment will be pro vided by the McLoughlln Jun ior High school orchestra. Jennings Pierce will act as master of ceremonies. husband is too attentive, too adoring, too admiring, but I'm beginning to feel like Liza Doolittle in "Pygmalion." Fred is "making me over" and in love with his results. I've gotten used to his cor recting my speech. He likes "Yes" instead of "Yeah." I've even welcomed his jacking me up when my grammar slips, or my posture slumps. And I defer to his judgment in mat ters of eye shadow, bathing suits, spike heels. I even give him the final say when I buy a hat, though I walk- around town sometimes looking like George Washington. Fred likes tricornes. But now I'm rebelling. For some reason Fred has a "thing" about long hair on a woman. He's a commercial artist and illustrates stories for the magazines. You'll notice that all his heroines wear their Jjair down to the waist or up' in chignons. But this heroine is sick of it. Yet Fred goes into shock when 1 broach a haircut for me. Fred Z. - Ina will admit that I have taste, good taste. The highest proof of it is that I selected her as "my phan tom of delight." And each day I'm more certain that my choice was justified. As an artist, I have develop ed certain standards. I try not to impose these dogmatically on Ina. But maybe I'm a bit like " 'enry 'iggins" in the play, because I've usually been able to persuade Ina that following my ideas can bring her new confidence and new satisfactions. She hasn't gone wrong yet. In selecting her hats, I've saved her from looking like a cartoon. Ina has little sales resistance. I strengthen her. But having her soft, flow ing tresses cut off would break my heart. I'm one of those husbands who never had a sister and always longed to have a really feminine woman in my home. Let the men have the haircuts. - The Council: Unshorn locks may have been part ofr the strength of Samson and Her cules, but they're Fred's "weakness!" - on' ladies, that is. He equates that crowning glory, the sort you can run : your hand through and through and through (and maybe never get it out of), with the essence of woman hood. When the luxuriant, shining abundance is part of his adored wife, this proud husband doesn't want to yield an inch, I want more of her, not less, he'll say, fending off ! the barber! ! But to Ina, the long hair i is a bore. It's heavy and its ; upkeep is a burden. Shampoos ! become engineering projects, ! involving unsnarling and' currying. ; The decision here should be Ina's. Is she a woman or a 1 mannequin? It's her hair, it bothers her, she'd like to try ' it short. Let us suggest that Fred shift his concentration from his wife's physical attributes to her other womanly charms, one of which will be this newly-formulated "spirit" to speak up for what she wants. No doubt Ina has a full com plement of wiles to bring to bear upon Fred to help him forget the dear departed braids and chignons! One of these may well be a chic Jacqueline coiffure. If, ex post facto, they're both miserable over the shear ing, the misery is eminently remediable. As any barber with a broom can tell them, there's plenty more where that came from.
