SALFORD FARM FORUM
HELD MONDAY EVENING
Salford Farm Forum was held at
the home of Mr. George Nagle on
Monday evening. The subject un
der discussion was “Manpower and
Farm Labor.” The C.B.C. Broadcast
was conducted by representative far
mers and leaders in Ontario and
Quebec. The present manpower reg
ulations and farm labour policies
have failed to freeze men on the
land, but on the other hand , have
inclined to deplete farm labour in
favour of military service and in
dustry. The voluntary system of en
listment has made a responsive ap
peal to willing labour on the farm,
while the present call up service for
boys of nineteen has made further
inroads into farm labour. No satis
factory compensation has been given
the farmers for emergency help in
peak seasons. This is bound to result
in a serious reduction of production
in the immediate future and will
have far repercussions next year in
dairy products, while it may not be
so noticeable in beef cattle, hogs and
eggs. Farmers are in immediate
need of help throughout the winter,
and more especially for an eight
month period from seeding to har
vest next summer. No farmers are
available from this area for release
from seasonal employment for either
industry or lumber camps. The new
policy of the government regarding
Federal-Provincial Youth plans, th A
development of plans to place Jape]
anese, prisoner* of war or conscienNtious objectors on the land or even thcll
plan for restrictive placement to keep
fanners on the land, offer neither
immediate or permanent help for
farmer* now suffering from short
age of labour.
Appreciation was expressed for
the part-time assistance given by
Ingersoll people during harvesting
operations last summer. It is to be
hoped that this will be available
next year also and in increasing num
bers and hours spent on the farm.
It is seriously suggested that if
the government would subsidize
farm labour to bring it in line with
other essential war industries then
more help would be forthcoming,
otherwise the prospect of decreasing
production must be faced.
During the next five weeks there
will be no meeting* of the forum, but
the broadcast will be heard at 8,30
as usual with reports from the var
ious provinces of Canada.
The next regular meeting will be
held on Jan. 11th at the home of
Alfred DickouL

Y’S MEN’S CLUB
HELD LADIES’ NIGHT
The greatly anticipated Ladies’
Night of the Y’smen Club was held
at their last meeting. This took the
form of a chicken dinner served by
the ladies of Folden’s United Church.
The president, Bert Carr acted as
master of ceremonies. Frank Cragg
conducted the sing song, assisted by
Ross Bigham at the piano. Gordon
Pittock proposed the toast to the
ladies and Mrs. Bert Carr responded
in true style.
Rev. Arthur Kewley, minister of
Central United Ohurch, Woodstock,
was the speaker of the evening and
chose as his subject, “The Art of
Encouraging.” Mr. Kewley stated
that encouragement is the fundamen
tal policy of our democratic form of
life. Most of us possess it as a
theory, but tend to leanr towards the
dictatorship, when we tell someone
to do a certain thing instead of giv.
ing encouragement and thus provid
ing a stimulus for the work to be
carried out. The one that does the
encouraging wins out. It is a slower
and tougher process but it is more
effective.
It is not good enough to say what
is going to happen or what vision
we think should happen and then fold
our arms. Instead, we must constant
ly be preparing ourselves for this
goal at ths same time be persuading,
convincing and encouraging those
with whom we come in contact.
When you are encouraged, you
find that you have new and greater
abilities and potentialities that you
never knew you possessed. Tests
show that a person can be encour
aged to possess either greater or
less physical strength than he had
under normal conditions- “By encour
agement, tremendous gold mines are
opened up in your life and my life,
and new influences develop,” the
speaker said. However, it works
both ways, there is a wrong kind
of encouragement. A careless deed
or work spoken, an improper book
or magazine will cast a wrong influence.How to encourage people is an artand study in itself. How would you
encourage a perron who has notdone a thing well The sensitive
person does not want to be praisedat any time. He must be made tofeel at home and when he gains his
self confidence a greater understanding may be brought Into the matter. How would you encourage a
man who is held in high esteem: Nomatter how great a perron may be,he needs a bit of encouragement.Men who are in important positionsneed some encouragement no mat
ter what they are doing.In our daily lives we must transform our state of mind from the
critical to the encouraging. Thisact will be limitless in its effects andboundless powers will be released by
all with whom we come in contact.Rev. R. H. Parr introduced thespeaker and Gordon Henry express
ed the deep appreciation of his audience. Y’sman Art Reeves thankedthe ladies of Folden’s Church for
their generous hospitality, to whichMrs. Lome Wilson replied in fittingmanner.

it are interested enough to uphold
ita functions When one neglects to
vote he definitely shows his lack of
interest not only in public affairs
but also in the administration of
government. f
In days of lung ago the right to
vote was earned through great
struggle, but to-day we have the
.privilege and it Is made easy for us
and there should be no excuse or
desire to turn aside from such an
important duty.
In Australia voting is compulsory,
and one wonder* whether we may
not have it enforced here if so many
backs tarn against the polling
booths. We who enjoy and love
freedom should do our part in main
taining it by easting our vote when
our Government requests it.

68th Annual Report
President and General Manager Address Meeting
Agricultural Production at New High
MR, A. E. PHIPPSPresident,
said in part:
The outstanding feature of thestatement is the growth in the totalson both sides of the Balance Sheet, thedeposits having increased approximate
ly $37,000,000. with a correspondingincrease in the assets. This, or course,is due to the enormous expansion ofbusiness caused by the war, and. asthe General Manager has explained toyou, thee increased resources havebeen loaned to the Government at a
low rate of interest, loans of thisnature being divided pro rata betweenall the Bank*.It is obvious that a country’ cannotdivert an increasing share of its productive capacity to wartime channelswithout impairing some parts of its
industrial structure, and it is equallyclear that the energicj of the peoplecannot be turned from the productionof the necessities and comforts of lifeto the production and use of implements of war without a correspondingdecline in the stanuaid of living.
BANKING.
To raise the enormous sums ofmoney necessary to finance the war wehave had three Victory l^eins, thelat---t one amounting to nearly One
Billion Dollars, besides which there
have been the borrowings by theDominion Government from the Char-trred Banks to which I have alreadyalluded, and substantial and growingtax collections. It is reported thatincome Tax collections alone for thewven months ended 31st Octoberamounted to $798,488,628. We maylook for further Government borrowings Liter on, but taxation seems tohave almost reached the point wherethe people can stand little or no furtherincrease.We are now in the fourth year ofthe war, which has been the most
bitterly contested and savage of alltime, and while at the moment theoutlook i» favorable the only way tokeep it favorable is to keep on fightingwith every weapon in our power untilvictory is complete,
AGRICULTURE.Many new records of production
and marketing have been establishedin Canadian agriculture during 1942.Grain production, which is <4 nujurimponance in itself and also forms thebans for live stock production, reacheda new all-time high. Favorable weather conditious in the Prairie Provincesresulted in a wheat crop of 587 million
busbeb for the three Provinces despitea slight contraction in acreage. Aninrrease jf 1.5 million acres in theana desixed to oats, combined withli>gh yields, resulted in a crop of 661miilimi bu.hel* for all Canada whichis njnre than double the* 1941 output.
Increased aaeage and higher yieldsresulted in a record barley crop ofatmoH 272 million bushels. The totalsupply of feed grains on hand m morethan adequate to m. rt the rt juire-menta of the present expanded liveMuck production. Numbers of allciaiae* of live M<<k at June 1, 1942.ehowed substantial gains <n er the samedutc a /tur ago.

The net profits, after, deductingtaxes, the usual contributions to thePension and Guarantee Funds, andafter making transfers to Contingent
Account to provide for all bad anddoubtful'debts or assets amount to$836,149,05—a decrease of almostexactly $36,000. when compared withthe previous year. Against this youwill note that Dominion Governmenttaxes showed an increase of approximately $48,000. and as owing to thereduced limit of our circulation thetax thereon was approximately $8.000.,less than a year ago the total increasein taxes against profits amounted toapproximately $56,000., although thine w scale of taxation only affected
us fur the' last four months of thebank year. .Deposit s.Deposits by the Dominion Government, by Provincial Governments andby the public now total $217352,616.,
compared with $179,929,434. a yearago.I might draw your attention to thefact that deposits bearing interest forthe first tithe in the history of theBank exceeds the $100,000,000. mark,and in view of the inroads made on
these deposits by the Victory Loansof February last, and to some extentby the loan which was under way atthe time out1 year ended, I think wemay regard the growth as satisfactory.
ASSETS.Our holdings of cash and depositswith and balances due from otherBanks in Cahada and abroad comesto $41.156.9J1,, being 18.3% of our
tota\ liabilities to the public. Dom
inion and Provincial Government directand guarantied securities maturingwithin' two -years amount to $68,679,-342., as compared with $28,819,396. ayear ago-—an increase of approximately$40,000,000. This increases Dominionof Canada Sfx Month W of 1% DepositCertificates, being our share of Govern
ment financing undertaken throughthe Banks during the year. OtherDominion and Provincial Governmentsecurities amount to $38,283,298.Our total investment portfolio nowamounts to $112,429,776.—an increaseof $35,701,000., as compared with ayear ago.Current Loan* and Discounts in
Canada amount to $75.468,640., areduction of $4,140,000. from a yearago. To a very considerable extentthis reduction is accounted for by thehtenem of the Western harvest. Ayear ago our grain customers wereborrow ing freely from early Septemberonr-thi, year delivery of the crop

Alycar ago I told you that it wasthe policy of your Directors and theManagement Io keep the affaire ofthe Bank in a very liquid conditionin order to inert any calls that mightbe mide upon us in connection with
Dominion Government financing andin connection with industrial activity,both as a result of the war effort andof the burinem requirements of ourmany customers. We have done jo.

the Allies—can rejoice at Christmas,because although they must celebratethe season of Goodwill amidst des
tructive warfare they have the satisfaction or knowing that althoughthey .must fl^it, they are fighting forthe maintenance of the teachingswhich the Christ Child came into theworld to reveal.
The purpose of this war is anoble one, not for gain and powerarc we fighting, nor for revenge,
but an unquenchable determinationto uphold righteousness, justice,peace and the liberties of mankind.
There can be no “Peace onEarth,” -while unscrupulous dictatorsdeny the message of the Christ
Child and ruthlessly trample all thatis fine and decent under the feet ofmarching armies, with death in their
hands and hatred and greed in theirhearts.We are fighting to bring God’s
order of pence and love to theworld and only by following theI Golden Rule in miX* individual life
can we succeed, indeed, had manlived by the Golden Rule from thebeginning of time there would be
no occasion for war.
The Four Horsemen
ride a^ain..*
Everybody harheard of the three “R’r," but the photographer who tookthis picture knew the three “S’a" of successful photography—Slow,Sharp, and Steady—and applied them to his work.
O EADIN', 'Ritln', ’Rlthmetlc—the
three "R's”—are familiar to all
□f us. But have you heard of thethree "S's” of photography—Slow.
Sharp, and Steady? They’re the
>asis of many a fine picture, evenhough most of us never think ofhem often enough.
Consider ''Slowness” for instance,
s’obody likes to be thought of as aHow worker. Everybody likes to be
ight up on his \oes when taking
pictures . . . getting the Job done
test and efficiently . . . and that’stine under most circumstances, but
when you’re just getting started
photographically. It often leads to
unnecessary mistakes.So before making any snapshot,
take the time to think things
through and check up on yourself.Make sure your focus, exposure, and
composition are right. And remem
ber that the second “S” in success
ful photography — Sharpness — depends upon correct focus. So don’tguess. If you aren’t certain, either
measure the distance from your
camera to your subject, pace It off,or use a range finder, unless your
camera is fixed focus. That’s the
way most experienced photographers
work.Finally, remember that the "Stead
iness” which helps you avoid blurred
pictures means holding your camera
absolutely still. If you can’t do that,place it on some firm support such
as*a tripod, a table, or a fence, and
don’t jar it when you are making
exposures. With the camera empty,of course, practice releasing the shut
ter with a smooth, even "squeeze”
until you can make your exposureswithout jarring the camera at all.That’s the Slow, Sharp, and Steady
way to photographic success.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, DEC. 3, 1942 Page 3RICHARD N. THURTELLTAKEN BY DEATHRichard Thurtell, a most valuedand respected citizen of Ingersoll,passed on in his 88th year, at hishome, 158 Wonham street on Thurs-day, November 26th. Until about amonth ago, Mr. Thurtell had been- “on the job’’, and he lived to be apuseful citizen to the end of his earth
life, always eager to help others in
relieving physical suffering. Al
though Mr. Thurtell had been in
failing health for some time, he kept
in toi>h with hu> drugstore, actually
going there about a month before
his death. This store had been of
his creating and we all know how
greatly wefe his interests centered
there. His son, Walter L. Thurtell,
had been carrying on in his father’s
unfailing steps for some time.
Mr. Thurtell was born at Rock
wood and came to Ingersoll 41 yeari
ago, since which time he had been
closely connected with town inter
ests, deeply interested in civic mat
ters, giving all the help in his power
to advance the interests of the
community, It was a pleasure and
also of educational value to hold con-
versation with this elderly gentle
man, his tolerance and keen kindli
ness were predominant, and his gen
iality warming to many a discour
aged heart; his was a character of
strength because of his humility
and unassuming nature. In a sen
tence, he was a good example to the
citizens of Ingersoll.
Richard Thurtell was an invaluable
member of Trinity United Church; a
Past Master of King Hiram Lodge,
No. 37, A. F. & A. M. and for a
great many years he held the posi
tion as treasurer of the Canadian
Order of Foresters. He was widely
known and loved by all for the excellent qualities of his nature.
He is survived by two sons,
Walter L., Ingersoll, and Dr. Wilfred,
Newport, Oregon; one granddaugh
ter, Margaret Thurtell, Newport,
Oregon; two grandsons, L.A.C. Rich
ard S. Thurtell, R-C.A.FL, overseas,
and LA.C. Stuart L. Thurtell, R.C.
A.F., on the Pacific Coast.
The late Mr. Thurtell rested nt
the Preston T. Walker Funeral
Home until Friday noon, then at his
residence on .Wonham street. The
funeral service was held at Trinity
United Church on Saturday' after
noon at 2.30 o’clock, and was very
largely attended. The innumerable
floral tributes sent by relatives and
friends, eager to show their grati
tude for his friendship and sorrow
at his passing, 'made his “Crossing
the Bar,’’ a thing of beauty and of
fulfillment, rather than of loss. The
service was conducted by Rev. R.
H. Parr, assisted by Rev. R. A.
Facey. Interment was made in the
Ingersoll Rural Cemetery. The pall
bearers were: F. Earl Johnston, Basil
Wilson, James Sinclair, L. V. Healy,
W. W. Wilford and Squire Moyer.

Bank of MontrealAnnual StatementShowing characteristic strength inall departments, the Bank of Montreal’s annual statement, just released. marks a record in the institution’s 125-year career, with assetsat the new high figure of $1,175,-000,000 and deposits exceeding, forthe first time, the billion dollar mark.Profits show some reduction compared with those of a year ago, owing to the increase in DominionGovernment taxes, which this yearamount ’ to $2,539,874, compared
with $2,242,905 a year ago. In theformer figure is Included an amountof $72,360, Which is refundable un
der the provisions of The ExcessProfits Tax Act. The profit, afterpayment of taxes, amounts to $3,-283,018, compared with $3,437,026
a year ago, and represents 4.31 percent of capital, rest and undividedprofits. This contrasts with 4.51 percent, in 1941.
Dividend payments show a reduction of $180,000 compared with last
year’s figure, the decrease being dueto the lower rate of the dividendmade effective in recent months. The
dividend payments amounted to $2,-700,000, which, with $500,000 appropriated for bank premises, left a net
amount of $83,018 to be carried forward to profit and loss, making thebalance in this account $1,236,686.

Heavy Snow Slowed
Up Week-end Traffic
<Heavy snow fell on Saturday night
and most of Sunday. There was the
usual Saturday traffic and great
care must havu been exercised by'
motorists to avoid accidents. Fortun
ately, due to gasoline rationing,
traffic on the highway was light
and no accident# occurred. Sunday
wm a day of cautious walking and
driveway# were very slippery and
to be sanded so that cars could be
used.
The town looked very beautiful
in her coat of ermine on Sunday
morning, the soft unbroken anow
velvety soft underfoot, and trees and
and shrubs decked with fluffy pads
of snow, transformed the last lap of
fall into a winter fairyland. v
It was a mild winter morning and
one could pause to enjoy the scene;
as the church bolls called worship
pers to the early services one won
dered how there could be anything
but peace in such a beautiful world
where the love of God is always in
evidence.

Don’t Let Down on the Job
One of the most successful bus
iness men the world has known,
John Wannamaker of Philadelphia,
was the first advertising genius in
the retail advertising field. He is
quoted as having once said: “Contin-
uous advertising, like continuous
work, is the most effective; if there
is any enterprise in the world that
a quitter should leave alone it is
advertising. Advertising does not
jerk, it pul la—It begins very gently
at first, but the pull is steady. It
increases day by day, year by year,
until it exerts an irresistible power.
To discontinue your advertising isthe same aa taking down one's sign.If you want to do business you mustlet the public know it. I would asBoon think of doing business without clerks as without advertising.”This timely advice was given byMr. Wannamaker during the lastwar when conditions were similar towhat they are today.

Churches of Ingersoll
Are Actively Alive
From reports we receive, the
churches of our home town are
busy,as ever with Christmas enter
tainments and 'bazaars, etc., at this
time. The young people and the
very young ones of the churches,
arc all excitement as cantatas and
Sunday School entertainments draw
near.
At St. James’, the adult choir is
practising for a Sacred Cantata in
costume, just after Christmas, after
the evening service.
The Women’s Guild is holding the
usual annual bazaar in the early
part of this month.
The Disking Club is having a social
evening for its 10 members, also in
the near future.
We welcome any news from the
church centres, these bits of inform-
tion not only cheer the h|me
towners^ but warm the hearts ofOthe
old girls and "boys of Ingersoll, often
many hundreds of miles away,’who
await eagerly the coming of the
Tribune eachoveek.
One Good Turn
Deserves Another
By being loyal to the Home Town
we are helping ourselves. No one
outside the town will take an inter
est and help to build up our town
and we should remember that when
we are thinking of taking business
outside that can be done at home as
well or better. By bringing in resour
ces we enrich the community and by
distributing our purchasing power
outside of Ingersoll iwe help to make
it poorer. Our local business houses
support local people who should in
turn stand by* them. Everyone ad-
mires the customer who gives the
Home Towner a break.

Cultivate Self-Reliance
Self-reliance is one of the firsthabits necessary to succcess to en
able us to solve our own difficulties and find our own way out oflabyrinths. When .we strike out on
our own in search of a job our firstinterest should be to prove to ourprospective employer that being ableto look after our own affairs, wecan also take cure of his in a reasonable degree.
Leaning on the other fellow ispurely instinct, we have leant so
long on those in whose care we havebeen entrusted, that we hesitate tobranch off and stand on our own,but this hanging on to another’sapron strings s folly, it is not “business”, it is not common sense. Assomeone once said, “Soldiers in the
army are not supplied with umbrellas, if they obtain any shelter
they have to make it for themselves.”We have to make the initial effort, experience brings self-reliance to bring us the experience. Itis well therefore to cultivate thehabit of self-reliance, even before
it becomes an absolute necessity.

Good Leadership
Brings Life To Town
“Enlightened Leadership,” that Is
what every town needs, and if therp
is one commodity in which our towqjr
are lacking it is Inspired Leadership,
As citizens we should be thinking
deeply on this subject and looking
ahead to our coming elections. To
day’s preparedness creates the fixed
purpose of tomorrow’s decision.
Our 'town has its reputation to
keep up, are we going to be a vital,
living town where everyone is will
ing to put themselves out a bit for
the community, where we are con
stantly on the look-out for new
chances of trade, trying to obtain
new industries?
Or are we going to be satisfied
as we are and so fsll behind? Satis
faction is but a poor thing. Any
town can become vitally alive if its
people are interested enough to
vote for strong. leaders with the
courage of their convictions.

qusNAPSPOT GUILDINDOORS AT NIGHT
It’* easy to make picture* like thia Indoor* at night with “open fla*h"
photography.
t/^AN snapshots indoor* at night be
va made with any camera? That
question 1* one of those most fre
quently asked by people who arenew to photography. And the an
swer, I am happy to say, is, ••Yes.”
Of course, the camera alone won't
do the trick. Generally, you’ve gotto use brighter lighting than isfound In even the best Illuminated
homes. And you should use an extra
tast film.But It can be done—that's a fact
—and probably the easiest and most
satisfactory way Is to start withflash photography. You can use flood
lighting if you wish, and get good
results too, but we’ll discuss thatsome other day.
Making * flash picture by what Is
called “open flash” technique requires just three simple steps.
First, set your camera on a tri
pod or other firm support, focus It

Why Advertising Pay*Advertised goods sell best, thereare many reasons why this is so; forexample, one can buy the samebrand of nmtehes or coffee, etc., inall part* of the Dominion, North,South, East or West, and the quality is equally good one place a* another; foodstuffs grown and cannedlocally, are just a* pure and freshwhen shipped hundred of milesaway. The buyer knows that a localadvertiser is ready to stand behindhis products because the proof ofhis confidence is advertising. No ad
vertiser would couple his name withffhoddy goods if he wished to remain in the running as a successfulbusiness man. The advertiser pledgeshimself to stand back., of his mer
chandise. He gives his word to thepublic and he must keep it.Advertising is the mark of good
faith, and is recognized a* such theworld over..What is responsible for all the im
provements in packages and sorts ofcontainer*? Why definitely. Advertising.

THE ROVING MIND
— by —
Eveline A. Long
The mind in release seeks the
broad expanses of the upper worldswhere it roams at will, it sees thefar away blue hills of recollection
and travels there to bring backthose memories, that time in itsflight has dusted with gold. It leaves
itself in the clear cool waters offorgetfulness and hence are banished all the trivialities of earth that
warp our steady progress towardstrue happiness. Thank God for thegift of a roving mind, a mind that
refuses to be harnessed forever tothe too solid indecenies of life, thattakes its ease in off moments in the
delights of make-believe. It may notmaterially get us anywhere, and material things (being the yardstick by
which the world measures us, wemay be of little account in a solidway, but what of it? We are oursel
ves for a little while, the kind ofselves we would be if we had themaking of ourselves. Freebooters we
arc in the world of fancy, vagabondsof the ethereal.And what a world this would be
were we each to decide that in future we'd take to star-gazing andcastle-in-the-air-building. Who’d thendo the work? But there’s little cause
to worry over that eventuality. Allmen of earth are earthmen, andonly at intervals, in moments of ease
and idleness are we likely to shuffleoff our burden of earth cares and
worries. They are all too present, alltoo absorbing, to be long forgotten,
and even so. only some few stay
long enough in that rarified atmosphere of the other world to absorb
much of its substance; it is too difficult for mere man to be sustained
in it. He has to have real food, real
clothes, real shelter, and all of itcosts money, and money is to be
had only if we work for it, that isunless we have been blessed, or is
it cursed, with the too much thatmakes endeavour unnecessary. Weare as we are; too close to earth
to see heaven, or too far-visioned to
be of much use to earth.

Consumers Asked ToConserve ButterConservation of ibutter ia urged bythe Wartime Prices and Trade Board,who have asked Canadian* to cuttheir consumption by one ounce perperson per? week. Observing thissimple self-rationing will, in theopinion of officials, tide the countryover the period of "deficiency production"—November to April.Since two ounces is equal to twotablespoonful, Western Ontario residents are heeding recent suggestions to spread their butter a little
thinner, to use shortening for cooking, to soften butter before makingsandwiches and to substitute gravy,
wherever possible, for butier on potatoes and vegetables.

Like most customs which become popular and deep-rooted because they satisfy a sound need,
the idea of wishing friends and acquaintances a ’’Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year”
goes on, war or no war.
Ghristmas cards, for instance—a decidedly Old Country idea which became in pre-war days,
a world-wide custom, were first popularized a hundred years ago in England by Sir Henry Cole.
The great vogue of Christmas came with Charles Diokens who probably did more than any mor
tal to spread the thought in this world of “Peace on earth and good will towards men.’’ Dickens
did it in a truly English style, with plum pudding and all the trimmings.”

into a greater expanse and magni
tude of life, and we go through the
opening and into the new life exactly
as we are here. Life is progression,
gradual and painful at times and
one cannot 'be ushered into eternity
by a bombshell so to speak—God
does all things well and when we
awaken in our new sphere of life it
is in an atmosphere of peace and
love and* infinite care, and our pro
gression continues where we leave
off in our earthly life.
But it is with the life on earth
that we are now concerned, for as
we plant the seeds and water them
here, so will reap the) harvest at
this journey’s end.
Lin Yutang, a cultured and educa
ted Chinese, in his book, “The Im
portance of Living,’’ guards us
against striving too hard for
wealth, advancement or power, ex
plaining their effect on the arteries,
heart and nerves, he says: “After
all allowances are made for the nec
essity of having few supermen in
our midst—explorers. conquerors,
heroes, who change the course of
history—the happiest man is still
the man of the middle class who has
earned a slight means of economic
independence, who has done a little
for mankind and who is slightly dis
tinguished in his community.”
Too much responsibility, too many
encumbrances, too much leisure or
none at all, are all drawbacks to a
fully vital life.
Marcus Aurelius, one of the
world’s great sages, advises us to
“Put yourself in harmony with the
things among which your lot is cast,
love those with whom you have your
portion, with a true love. Here one
thing is of real worth, to live our
life in truth'and just«ce.”

What*• Wrong With
Advice?
Why is it that few people like advice and still fewer can take itgraciously? Advice does not meancorrection, but help—-of coarse it canbe and is often misused as many another valuable thing has been.
Jean Paul Richter says: “Adviceis like snow, the softer it falls thelonger it dwells upon and the deeper
it sinks into the mind.’’ If we couldonly remember this, and 1st ourmotive for giving advice be promptedby a desire to help and to love,
there would be no sting in our timelyadvice but rather a soothing balmwhich would at all times be welcome.
Living Is important
Life is the most important thing
in existence becauae even when we
are known to this worlJ as “dead”,
we are really only beginning to live
and to understand what life really
implies, the great import of being.
Some peope live too strenuously
while others are “dead in the flesh”
and do not know th joy of living;
but it is sa ever the happy medium
that brings the most Into our lives,
reports u* through a useful existence
and a joyful one and exits us
through ths change we eall “death”
