TAKE CHANCE ON HAPPINESS
Grasp the Mood az IL Passes and Join
tho Great Throng Wearing Smiling
Countenancos.

~Ve coming home from a dinner
V t0ethA py friend and I. 1t
~ Ate at NAt and rather rainy,
- - we sat tlgether In the damp,
almost sappty trolley car, my friend
spoke w 0neenly and seriously,
writes Margaret e. Sangster In the
Christian Herald.
"Just now," she said, I've a chance
to be very happy. But I'm almost
afraid to take itl''
The rain beat, In futile manner,
against the car windows. I listened to
1t for moment before I spoke.
"Why2" 1 questioned at last-"why
are you afraid to take your chance-to
be happy?"
BECAUSE" answered my friend, and
her eyes looked far away-past the car
and the rain, even-"because I'm
afraid that 1t won't last 20
When 1t Is autumn, and the leaves
are crimson and gold-colored and very
beautiful, we know, even as we admire
them, that they will be brown and
withered some day. But that does not
keep us from loving their glorious col
ors.
It's like that, too, with flowers, and
springtime. and the blue sky of sum-
mer. We know that the flowers will
fade away and that springtIme will go
and that there will be winter storm
clouds where there were once sparkles
Of sun.
And so this is the answer to nv
friend and tc other friends of mine:
Never be afraid to grasp at happi-
ness because 1t may not last. For hap
piness Is as beautiful as the flowers
Of spring and the sky Of summer and
the vivid leaves Of autumn. And even
though 1t might not last, happiness is
too beautiful to pass by with never a
glance.
And then, as the philosopher said.
and as we know, don't be sure. as YOU
take your chance at happiness, that it
Will not stay. Look around your circle
OF friends. look at your business asso-
clates, look at the casual crowds that
you pass every day and you'll see that
the average Of happy faces is rather
high. You'll see more smiles, 1 think,
than frowns; more merry faces than
sad onesI
Don't be afraid to take a chance at
happiness because you fear that it is
too beautiful to last. Take your
chance, instead, arguing that happiness
Is too beautiful not to lastl

EnqIish Women In War.

When the war began. England had
only little army. Many Engllshmen
had never seen a soldier. new army
of 5,OO0,O00 drawn from civilian ranks,
had to be raised, trained. armed
clothed, fed and equipped with all the
supplies demanded by war which has
turned every scientific invention to the
work Of destruction. This necessitated
that the women fill the necessary
places men had formerly occupied and
also engage in the new industries war
requirements caused to spring into ex-
fstence.
Lord Northcliffe says that the
women have done this work, In the
main, exactly as well as the men. They
have entirely displaced the men in the
operation of elevators, as clerks in
stores, banks, and insurance Offices and
as drummers. In their enthusiasm the
women attempted tasks beyond their
physical strength. but this was gradu-
ally corrected. The fact that England
has been able to maintain its credit
and keep it's exports at practically the
prewar figures Lord Northcliffe un-
hesitatingly ascribes to the work Of
the women.

Preserving Old Furniture.
