Thrills.


What produces the thrills or lifeY
Seeking after new things; enjoying life
and its blessings. the excitement that
is produced by the wonderful changes
wrought by science; the momentous
happenings and the gigantic under
takings of the world and its people.
When a man evolves a great idea into
practical invention, II thrills; when
an author writes great story. 1t
thrills; when Caruso's golden notes
find their response in the soul, 1t
thrills; when "A rich man gives OF his
vast wealth for public good, 1t thrills;
when the sunrise melts the night, II
thrills, and when one looks on babe
that has Just come into the world, ii
thrills.
Life is full of thrills: They come
to us every day. A thrill sets the
nervous system aglow and gives zest to
the circulation. II keeps one from
getting sluggish. dissatisfied, morose
and uncharitable. But one must tight
against the feeling that one is growing
old. One must never nurse the obses-
sion that the years cut off ones ca
pacity for enjoyment or usefulness
Those who drift into a rut because
their mirror reflects a few gray hairs
will find their later years creating in
their minds only lack of interest and
appreciation-the greatest thrill-killer
of them all.
The spirit OF youth is only made
lasting by training the mind to see all
things with the same exultant thrill
that Christopher Columbus must have
experienced when he glimpsed Amer
lea the day after his crew threatened
TO place him in irons for Turing them
on a voyage that seemed to have only
death for n harbor.-Editorial in the
