ODD MINUTES

Some young people have too many
odd minutes. Our day should be plan
ned so carefully that we shall not have
too much leisure on our hands The
student who has four or five hours a
day to fill as he pleases, or the worker
whose evenings are all free are not
likely to make the best use of their
time. If we wait for the inspiration
of a minute, we are very likely to dis
cover that we do not feel like doing
the things best worth while.
You mean to do some improving
reading in your odd minutes, But as
you sit down in the evening with the
newspaper at your elbow and a popu-
lar magazine with a resplendent cover
lying in full view, it is quite easy to
decide that you will wait till tomorrow
before starting on "History of Civiliza-
tom But if you have made an ar
rangement with a number of friends to
meet once a week to do some solid
reading, when the appointed evening
comes, you keep your engagement and
do the reading you get something ac-
complished.
We need variety. We need recrea-
ton. But by planning for both, we get
better results than if it is all hit-or-
miss Most of us have too many odd
too many hours set apart for
nothing in particular.

1T is WELL TO REMEMBER

That a kind word put out at interest
brings back an enormous percentage of
love and appreciation.
That though loving thought may
not seem to be appreciated, it has yet
made YOU better and drawer because
of it.
That the little acts of kidness and
thoughtfulness day by day are really
greater than one immense act of good
ness once year.
That to he always polite to the pco-
pile at home is not only more ladylike
but more refined than having "com-
pany manners"
That to learn to talk pleasantly
about nothing in particular is a great
art, and prevents you saying things
that you may regret.
That to judge anybody by his per
sonal appearance stamps you as not
only ignorant but vulgar.
That to talk, and talk, and talk
about yourself and your belongings is
very tiresome for the people who
listen.
That to be witty at the expense of
somebody else is positive cruelty many
times.
That the ability to keep a friend is
very much greater than that required
to gain one.

FAMILY ANNIVERSARIES

Little family celebrations do much
to strengthen family affection. Take
advantage of any occasion that may
prompt gathering of the family, let
not one slip away unnoticed. Mar
riages, births, no event of special in
terest should be neglected. No ami
versary is more personal than a birth
day, be it in youth or old age. Every
body likes to know that people are
glad he is here.
In the companionship of their
friends, young folks are forming ties
that the coming years viii strengthen.
And when the young couple help to
celebrate the birthday of a parent or
elder person, they learn thoughtfulncss
in making others happy As the years
go by and life of joys or sorrows is
left behind, the aged person looks Gag
erIy forward to the celebration of each
coming birthday The fever occasions
like this one may look forward to the
more each anniversary means.
One who has lived many years has
found out how heetng is the joy in
material things, and has learned To
value more and more love, affection
and the good will that comes from the
heart In these family celebrations cx-
penses need not and should not be con
sidered. The simplest gifts, selected
with care, a flower, a card or just
loving wish carries much that makes
the day happy A letter or a card to
the absent one will be sustaining power
for good when lonely, homcsick or for
lorn Let the absent one know he is
thought of and cared for. DO not let
the birthday of any loved one pass
unnoticed

The old and somewhat prevalent idea
Of goodness and poverty has absolute
ly no basis for its existence, and the
sooner we get away from it the better.
1t had its birth in the same way that
the idea Of asceticism came into exist
ence, when the idea prevailed that
there was necessarily a warfare be-
tween the flesh and the spirit. II had
its origin therefore in the minds Of
those who had a distorted, onc-sidcd
view of life, True Gpdliness is in
sense the same as true wisdom. The
one who is truly wise, and who uses
the forces and powers with which he is
endowed, to him the great universe al
ways opens her treasure house. The
supply is always equal to The demand
equal to the demand when the de
mand is rightly wisely made. When
one comes into the realization Of these
higher laws, then the fear Of want
ceases to tyrannze over him
Are you out of situation? Let tho
fear that You will not get another take
hold of and dominate you, and the
chances are that it may be a long time
before you will get another, or the one
that you do get may be a very poor
one indeed Whatever the circumstance
you must realize that you have within
you forces and powers that you can
set into operation that viii triumph
over any and all apparent or temper
airy losses. Set these forces into opcr-
alton and you will then be forcing a
magnet that will draw 70 you q situa-
ton that may be far better than the
one you have lost, and the time may
soon come when you will even be
thankful that you lost the old one.

King Constantine to
 Direct Greek Army
In Operations Against Turk ish Nationalists - Sailed From Athens Saturday.

Athens, June 12.-(By The A. P.) King Constantine, before sailing Satur- day afternoon for Smyrna to direct the Greek operations against the Turkish nationalists in Asia Minor. issued a message to the Greek people in which he he predicted that success would crown the efforts of the Greek army. The mess age said:
 T go to place myself at the head of my army. Where Hellenism has strug- gled for centuries, with the aid of the All Highest victory will crown the eff forts of our race, which is advancing irresistiby towards it's destiny. Our pre- dominance in those regions, as did for meriy that of our forefathers, will en- sure realization of our highest ideals of liberty, equality and justice. The history of our race guides our arms and this admirable history of civilization lays on Us obligations of which we pro- foundly are conscious; and we further are able to proclaim proudly that we will be fully able to discharge them. The Greek people in it's sacred union confers this right on us by it's incom- parable sacrifices
 Trusting in Divine assistance, in the dash of my heroic army and the uncon- querable moral force of Hellenic ideals. go where the accomplishment of these supreme national aspirations calls me"

HOW BRITISH PRESS
 VIEWS THE SIMS INCIDENT

London, June 13.-The editorial silence of the London daily papers on the Sims incident was first broken today by com ments by two papers. The Daily News declares that it takes no pleasure ip any phase of the incident,
 "The admirars speeches seem to be as mischieyous and indefensible,' says the News. Their effect in this country and Ireland is deplorable and the reprecus- sion in America is to the highest else but what it has done, though it might perhaps have done it with a thought less trucu,ent. The only good feature of the whole affair is the possibility that it may serve as a warning of extreme caution, which 1t is imperatively public officials, both British and American, should dis play in dealing with the Irish question.
 The Daily Express under the caption The man who is not afraid to speak . ascribes the recall of Admiral Sims to the c!amor of pro-Sinn Fein voters, and says:
 Admiral Sims adds to his popularity among the remaining eighty per cent. of honest-to-God Americans. He has been reprimanded before for attempting to promote good fe \ng between the coun- tries, and we hope he will be asa.a. Knowing him as we do and aware ot the fact that his views are those of the majority we believe .hst he will do t again. And so we wish him godspeed."
