To be happy you must create around
yourself an atmosphere OF happiness
And that means making other people
happy.
No matter how much today's phiIo-
sophers talk about the joy OF ex-
pressing yourself. there is but cold
comfort in expressing your own per-
sonality II in so doing you force the
people around you to pay for your
freedom For in an atmosphere of
distrust, and jealousy and misery, you
may be a success-but you. can't be
happy.
In expressing your own personality.
you have to take mental stock of
yourself and make sure that what
you are expressing is the best, the
finest and the fairest and squarest
part OF your strongest and most
honest Ideals. You have to see that
cheap and gaudy desires do not clog
your aspirations.
Now when you have figured out the
sort OF man or woman you honestly
want to be. the man or woman you
would be proud and contented to be,
you VIII find you have just naturally
made allowance for the folks around
you You can't express yourself de-
Gently and honestly il you express
yourself selfishly.
All this may not sound as II you
to happiness. But you are following
the surest rule to get there,
very well, suppose you start. You
viii have to work to fulfill yourself
and you will find good comrades on
the road-comrades who will respect
your efforts and who viii generously
give and take help. The work will
be interesting, and each time you
forge ahead bit you viii have the
Inner JOY Of knowing you have done
your best and the otuer satisfaction
OF hearing that pleasant sOund-ap-
plause.
Those who love YOU will be sharing
in your success. They will be proud
OF you-suddenly YOU will see that
they are happy. And now one Of the
good comrades OF the road is likely to
turn lover. And happiness. for which
you have ceased longing is suddenly
yours.
In the consciousness OF a Job well
done, OF love deserving. Of a person
atty developed without Sinking or
WhImpering, you will find happiness.
Happiness cannot be Gagged. It can
not be bound down and assured for
every day OF your life. It has to be
joyously found now and then in the
honest pursuit OF living and loving
and making the most Of your own
7plendidly potential life.

What Is Happiness?
t Cannot Be Gagged, But Has To Be JOyously Found
Now and Then IN the Pursuit of Living.
~ REATRIcE EAIRFAr

r HAPPINESS is something ike q
toboggan reversed. You climb
= a long, steep hill to get to the
toD-and then one wild rush lands
you at the foot again. Happiness is
the thing we spend most Of our lives
pursuing. She eludes US deliberately
when the pursuit is direct and has a
way OF coming to US when he have
given over seeking or are seeking
something else.
The story OF the search for hap
piness has never been told more
beautifully and effectively than in

the children go in search for the
Bluebird OF Happiness. Often they
think they have found it-but the
bird which they have captured is
never the true-blue of happiness. So
at last discouragement drives them
Home- ana mere IN the wooden cage
Of their own cottage is the Bluebird
they have been seeking.
The symbolism is perfect and very
beautiful After all, happiness need
not be sought in any OF the wonder
ful Kingdoms to which wealth and
travel bear us. 1t is at home-at
home in the simplest tasks which
lie about US
The Reason Why.
The reason most of us rush so wild
" about and search for happiness is
because we have so little idea what
IL is. A girl says: 1T Is love" And
she follows all sorts OF will O. the
wisps thinking they are the true
lights Of love which will bring her
happiness. 4 boy fancies that money
brings happiness and so he enters into
the bitter struggles for wealth And
both Of them are likely to find IN
happiness rather than the thing they
are seeking. The girl finds that love
can be very cruel and the boy finds
that the hard work and effort he has
given have netted him nothing but
the feverish desire for more money.
Success or fame CT mere lazy, sen
sual enjoyment stand for happiness to
some. But neither pleasure nor ap-
plause can fill en- empty life with
happiness
