". M. c. A. news

The W. C. T. U meeting at Mrs. E
P. Hartman's, Friday afternoon, Oct
5, with an attendance of about 20 la
dies, opened with Bible reading AND
prayer. After the usual business
matters had been attended to, Mrs. H
H. Hartzog sang a solo, followed by
an interesting and profitable talk by
Mrs. W. A. Stanley. She also gave
a brief report Of DR.. Barker's lecture
at the Chautauqua on Happiness,
filling in with quotations from Whit
comb Riley and other prominent au-
thors, interspersed in such an inter-
esting way that showed hard work in
so carefully and thoughtfully planning
the connections with her subject. A
brief resume Of her report of DR.. Bark
er's lecture follows: N@S
"The finest Of the fine art" Hap
piness:
The trouble is, most people think it
is dependent on exterior things; but it
is dependent upon law We do not
think of happiness as being governed
by laws, though we are all thoroughly
familiar with the law of gravity, the
laws of nature, spiritual laws, and our
country's laws, and laws Of health, etc.
If a man is happy, it is because he
puts himself into harmony with the
rules, or laws, for obtaining happi-
ness. There are five of them and
they will work with any one under all
circumstances. DIR. Barker said he
knew for he had tried them for seven
years, and he considered that good
test.
For the first three months he thought
he would never be able to reach any
degree of attainment He. thought
if physician proved 1t it would have
some weight for that profession sure
ly does give it a severe trial, owing to
the nature of the profession.
Law No. 1. Cultivate the habit of
looking on the bright side of every
experience that touches your life. He
knew that some very excellent people
turned life wrong side out, to find the
gray lining. He knew how unhappy
such a man was, because he had just
such a disposition himself. He used
to say he couldn't help it, he inherited
it. But in the light of these five rules
he said, II am not responsible for the
disposition | brought into the world,
but | am responsible for the one /
carry out of it." Quit worrying when
disappointments come, and smile,
smile, smile, under all difficulties. Oh,
If isn't easv at first
Law No. 2. Accept your place in
life at the present time. People are
not happy because they have "things".
Fit your life into your surroundings,
and be happy.
Law No. 8. Throw your whole soul
and spirit into your work, whatever
it is, and do it the very best you can.
It is no difference what your work is,
but the manner in which you do it.
Law No. A. Form the habit Of do
ing bits of kindness to those who touch
your life. Bits Of kindness don't
mean catching team of horses, ETC.,
but it means how people act at home.
Law No. 5. Adopt and maintain at
all times simple trust and confidence
in God.
