Many complain that their life is all
gray days; that there is little beauty or
pleasure IN It; that Il IS just one hard
grind from morning until night year in
and out. The complaint goes up every
where, from housewives tr0nding their
monotonous round from cook stove to
dishpan; from workers who go from
home 10 store or factory and back again;
even from the butterfly whose endless
social engagements become a WEAKNESS

But isn't this complaint a matter OF
Viewpoint rather than OF actual fact?
Two Office girls were walking home one
night after a bad snowstorm which left

sunset in the west. II is a question Of
choice. One can look at mud OF can look
at stars II one can remedy the mud

Innovations have been slow IN attacking
