A personal aim. 10 resolute purpose,

TO self-sacrifice. Only In this way lies
health of body and mind"
Pressure In work lessons expense
of living more than any other single
thing. Exercise properly taken means
a keener appetite and permits less ex'
pensive food. A simpler life Is pos
sible when mere living Is n pleasure. "
Nowhere are these truths less
needed than among fiousekeepers. We
fail to realize that Joy In work takes
the mind of the drudge.y OF life and
gives rest TO every form OF activity.
Undoubtedly. a certain degree OF pros
perlty IN essential to human happi.
ness. We know. when times are good.
people are happy and contented. They
worry less and sleep more peacefully.
But q is a somewhat mistaken idea
that the chief incentive 20 work Is the
possession OF money and things. To
toll merely for sustenance Is lowest
drudgery. In the actual doing and
achieving lies the surest pleasure. The
consciousness OF work well done at
fords the highest measure OF satisfac-
ton. Children delight In constant &C

Discoveries Concerning Them Made
Public at University Of California.
Prof. John C. Merriam OF the geo
logical department OF the University
of California has just made public
the results OF discoveries regarding
the origin and descent OF ichthyo-
saurs. The Significance OF Professor
Merriam's discussions OF changes In
bone structure found In ichthyosaur
fossils may be better understood
when Il Is known that the bone
changes are coincident with the ich-
thyosaur's development from a land
moving form Co n reptile or animal
fitted for aquatic life.
Professor derriam says that when
the ichthyosaurs FIRST took to the sea
tie Appalachian chain Of mountains
was Just completing Its upheaval:
whilo they were In the height OF
their prosperity the Sierra Neyadas
arose on the western border OF the
continent; while they were undergo
ing their decline and approaching ex-
tinctlon the Rocky Mountain range
and the region OF the great plains
were rising from the sea. The Whole
history OF their dispersal on the high
seas, according To Professor Merriam.
took place during a period roughly
estimated at eight million OF years.
