eyes bent earthwaxd like the man with the rake in "The Pilgrims Progress" and every day they are growing older and the edge of their youthful keenness is getting duller and duller, and soon they will no longer have the power to feel and to appreciate. In other words, to live! Then when the awakening comes, as some day it will, they will find to their sorrow that it is too late, for their emotions are dulled by want of use and by the passing of the years, and no sadder word can come to humanity than the melancholy words, "Too late!'
 Now here's a good test of our state of mind; Are we as happy as we can be?"
 Facing the question fairly and square ly, if we are not, what is the factor that is dulling our lives, and how can 1t best be eradicated?
 The answer to such questions are necessarily varied:
 We are not happy for financial rea- sons; we are not happy because of do-

Looking On the Brighter Side
 of Things and What It Means
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE
AN AN happiness be cultivated?" N The question was put to me

The question was put to me
 recently by friend of mine who has been in very, very deep trouble; who has felt as If the very bottom had dropped out of the world for her and nothing on earth was worth while.
 l was rather glad of the inquiry, as 1t again started me off on one of my favorite topics.
 The question, of course, is as old as the sun, moon and stars, and yet the answer to it is nearly always different and unsatisfactory, for one person finds happiness in outward circumstance, while another declares that happiness and duty are synonymous terms, and yet a third informs us that happiness is merely relative and that after all it is doubtful if there is any such thing at all
 Amidst such a confusion of conflicting opinions, 1t is hard to make up ones mind definitely on the subject, but I al ways like to talk about it. somehow.
 From the ethical standpoint, one ought to find the truest happiness in the ful- hllment of duty, and yet one daily sees the man or woman who is fighting the hardest fight between duty and inclina- tion, and who turns sad eyes toward the right and the right only, and yet rigor ous adherence to duty does not take the sadness from their eyes. N
 Whatever may. be said to the contrary, I am of the firm conviction that happi ness-elusive ''bluebird," though it may be, can be cultivated, yet in order to win 1t, we must forget it--rule it clean out of our scheme of things, as 1t were, for the direct pursuit of happiness ends in complete failure.
 How then are we to achieve happi- ness?" the uninitiated will ask eagerly as did the poor woman who put the ques- ton to me.
 The answer is:
 Tn world as wonderful as this, we must live more deeply, live harder, feel things more keenly, and above all look up and see the wonders and the glory of the world! In other words, climate self .'
 The unfortunate part of it all is that the majority. of humanity drags along without seeing the vision and with sad

nestle relations; we are not happy on account of i'll health; we are not happy on account of our children; we are not happy for ten thousand and ten reasons all of which jamb us up against prope- sitions which cause us much unhappi- ness and great of pain.
 But
 Can't we always say, and not only say, but see for ourselves, how much worse it might be, and just remember little "Pollyanna of the Glad Book"
 Yes, happiness can be cultivated; the mind can be turned from doleful intro- spections and be made to look upon the brighter side of things with a more cheerful outlook. The persistent ignoring of the darker side of things will event ually dispel the gloom and put us in a more happy frame of mind
 For, after all, this old world is a mighty good old world-matters not how many disappointments we have had, full of de- lightfuI surprises and intensely interest ing happenings, and we must not shut our eyes to the brighter side of things, for
 "The world is so full of such wonderful
 things

 The influence of mind over matter is 8 wonderful thing and will power can do many things, little short of miracles, in fact. and what the average human being needs, is to be aroused out of himself and awakened to the joy and happiness he can bring to others, thus reflecting unto himself the very happiness he so longs for, and is so desirous of experience ing.

The Athena basket ball teams won a
double victory last Friday night by de-
feating Hermiston boys and girls
teams in the local gym, by the scores
of 47-23 and 52-4, for the boys and
girls respectively. Athena took the
lead in the boys game and increased it
steadily throughout. Numerous fouls
were called on each team which neces-
sarily made the game slow. The locals
used good team work thereby dividing
the scoring honors.
In the girls game Athena piled up
the highest score in two seasons. Her
miston made all their points in the last
half, the first half ending RS to 0 in
favor of the locals. Hurd and Froome,
the Athena forwards, divided honors
