DRIVING OUT THE BLUES AND ANTS

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner. presume you are all busy, with the house. cleaning problem or it's prelimnaries just how, as this is ideal weather. We shall all be hIsy for while. and feel glad when this annual task Cor semi-annuaO
 Is completed. We cannot be too careft l, to manage this work to the best adyan- tage, s9 as not to overtire ourselves. It is better to go little slow, than rush too fast, and then suffer unpleasant conse- quences. I have especially observed the suggestions, from two sister writers re. gently concerning ''blues." This appeals to me as a deep subject for thought, and how may we alleviate these gloomy de- pressions. which overcome our attitude of mind from various causes I think we all have these experiences and know what it means to sympathize. Our sister. A Good Fighter, recommends that to put on your "bunnlt and travel" Is an ex- cellent remedy, which I agree with, but sometimes we can't always do that eer- tain conditions may prevent so we look for some other substitute. I think some people are more effected with 'Fblues, {" than others, according to the cause. Per sonally, a great disappointment to me, means a fit of the blues. and realizing with no alternative for a while. that I must submit. decide. I must make the effort to find a compromise One Sunday afternoon recently, I had planned on at tending special religions service, but when the hour came for me to go I was abruptly detained through no fault of my own. As I was alone in the house (aftar it was too late for me to go) the 'fblues" took possession. I did not care to read anything. I had no desire to play the piano, much less to sing and I did not wish to go out for a walk Pride withheld tears that might have come. as it seemed foolish to yield. That condi- ton of the blues seemed to gain grouna instead of diminish. and to stop it I had to do sometime. I stepped to my book case. glarcad over t7e shelves and saw nothing that apT naled to me but when spied two old autograph albums I took them out, sat down and began to look

DO THE BEST WE CAN EACH DAY

MT. Editor and Sisters of the Cor ner: As we drift along on the river ftime. how short each years seems to grow. How our birthdays come and go. Making us older each year. We can look back over the pleasant times that have gone and often wish that we could gc over them again, but only in the pie lures that hang on memory's wall can we do so. We see mistakes that we wish we could rectify, but can not till we stand face to face with the record of the soul later on.
 It behooyes us all to do the best we can each day. to think good thoughts, to think health if we wish it's, success, happiness and pleasantness and to do all the good we can as we pass along through life as we only pass once this way. and we should improve each gold
