The best teacher is not the man
who has known for years-it is gen.
orally the man who was yesterday
corrected for laundering.
We build up a screen of words and
actions between ourselves and those
we love-and then we wonder why we
are misunderstood
Life is like arithmetic And as
soon as you work out the right an
sWer to one problem. the teacher sets
you another-and harder one.
After you have won your reputa-
tion-the great problem is how to
keep up with it.
The loves of youth are like the
crumpled outer leaves Of a rose-and
the love of a lifetime may be hidden
in the inner heart of a flower that
seems wilted and dying.
We always have plenty of friends
until we need them.

Thus" says Miss Loeb. the humani-

poverty stricken. II impressed me to find
that in European countries the idea Is
TO try to preserve family life as much as
