After all, most Of us place q wrong
valuation on the things Of life. OBJ
serves an investigator. Many of us are
made miserable by the fear Of ridicule,
others by fear Of censure. fear Of pub
lie opinion, fear of failure-these are
stumbling blocks in the way Of many
who long for success. Faith can re-
move mountains. Difficulties that have
seemed altogether insurmountable give
way before courage. The person who
has high faith, deep and abiding cour-
age, faith In oneself and In human ma
ture, courage as shield against mis-
fortune. will never lose the fight, per-
manently, whatever 1t may be. For
what one loses in material things one
will gain In character. and character is
all that is needed In this world for any
real and lasting success.

ostriehes Waltz in Desert


ostriehes Waltz In Desert
One Of the oldest sights on the SAN
dy stretches of q plain In southern
Africa is party of waltzing ostriches.
When there are a number Of them
they will start of. and after running
a few hundred yards. viii stop and.
with raised wings, viii whiri rapidly
round until they are stupified, or per
haps break q leg. The males pose
also before fighting. They kneel on
their ankles, opening their wings. and
balancing themselves alternately for
ward and backward. or to one side or
the other, while the neck is stretched
out on level with the back and the
head strikes the sides, now on the
right now on the left, while the feath-
ers are bristling.. The bird appears at
this time so absorbed In its occupa-
ton as to forget all that is going on
around him. and can be approached
and caught. The male alone utters q
cry. which sounds much like an effort
to speak with the mouth shut light.
