DRIFTING
The Life Without a Purpose
By
ELLEN ADAIR

Although many a woman would indlR-
hantly deny the statement. too many to-
uay might be classed as nothing more nor
less than "drlfters" on the sea of life.
FOR they have no plan, no purpose, no
Suiding principle beyond the great goal
o. Pleasure There is a certain thrill, a
certain glow of anticipation connected
with drifting, too though 1t be ephemeral
and short-lved, which is very interesting
and delightful while 1t lasts The pity is
that IT lasts for such a short time-and
then come the rocns and the undercur-
rents and the storms and the tears and
the disappointments.
There are hundreds of different ways OF
drifting. One small boat may be drifting
IN very safe and pleasant haven, where
no possibility of mishap could occur. An
other may be drifting in waters that LOOK
calm and lovely and that yet hold treach-
erous currents and waves underneath A
third may be drifting in the open sea. but
with rudder and oars ready at moments
notice to combat any sudden emergency.
And the unfortunate fourth may be drift
ing because there is no other alternative.
for the rudder Is broken and the oars
gone! And God help that poor lonely boat
out there in the open!
life without n purpose never can be
a happy one. For, after all. the en-
thuslasms OF life what nE happiness
to us-provided, of course. that the en-
thusiasms tend toward the right direction,
Yet the saving clause is unnecessary. for
no wrongly directed enthusiasm survives
more than a brief space. For then IT !
ceases to be an enthusiasm and becomes |
merely falling, and a handicap.

1T happened this way: When quite
