4 PERFECT DAY

Yesterday was considered a perfect day. With a brightly shining sun, a slight breeze and weather conditions such as to make all feel content, a large number of people took advan- tage of conditions to take lengthy walks to the adjacent country. Some went to the wireless station; others took the railroad track as far as Woodrow, and others contented themselves with strolling around town enjoying the balmy air. All in all Sunday was a perfect day.

CAREER OFT
COSTS GIRL
HAPPINESS

By LUCY LOWELL

10y AOO4 4<OVV 4IAAA@S
q HE is only a girl, this singer
- I know, very charming and
~ sweet. And although her
success and her fast gathering
fame have in no way turned her
head, it's quite natural that she
should have builded various ideas
on them-because they have come
too quickly, perhaps.
And her ideas all are concerned
with how to get the very utmost
hard, you see, but she wants her
work to bring her the biggest
thing there is.
And she believes the biggest
thing for her or for any woman
is a career Of creative work crown
ed by real achievement.
She believes, she says, that any
amount of sacrifice Of the things
women usually hold dear is justi-
fled, and that a woman to find
happiness must make every other
consideration subservient to at
tanning this goal.
And looked at her while she
spoke, considering her exquisite
young beauty-the soft, shining

at the corners and wondered.
I pictured ten years fluttering
by with their struggles and wor-
ries. marking the edges OF her
eyes with lines and hanging
weights to lip-corners An edge
to the sweetness, and harden
ing, ever so slight perhaps, where
optimism is buffeted against OBJ
stacles.
And another twenty years, per-
haps, with middle-age greying
the soft brown hair and success
a surely established thing
And empty arms and loneliness!
For of course, the singer, de-
termined to sacrifice what women
usually hold dear, will have no
time to love and marry and know
the glory of motherhood. She
will stand aside while her friends,
not fired with her special sort of
ambition, go the ways that wom-
en- have gone since the first Of
them married and set up her
home anti conferred her interests
in it and thereby automatically
detach herself from those women
who had no similar interests
So many-probably the greater
number-of her old friends will
drop out Of her life, and she will
have only acquaintances and
somewhat sketchy contact with
members Of her family. And Of
course her achievement. But I
wonder If in all of 1t she will
find the satisfying warmth that
lies in the single touch Of a
loved hand?

WORDS FROM
THE LIPS OF
WISE MEN

MATURE never deceives you.
IN He who does an injury
to one threatens many.
To q modest man It is an honor
to have remembered his duty.
Injustice done to an individual
can never be Of service to the
public.
To know a man perfectly one
must live in the same house with
him.
Do not trust or contend, nor
borrow or lend, and you'll gain in
the end.
The wise and prudent conquer
difficulties by daring to attempt
them.
The most important element in
success is economy-ecOnomy of
money and time.
A little mind is boastful and in
credulous for he danc1es adj
knowledge is his own.
There Is something noble IN
hearing oneself ilI-spoken of
when one Is doing well.
The way to make your son
rich is to fill his mind with
knowledge. before his trunk with
riches.
Individuals may form communi-
ties, but 1t is institutions along
that can create a nation.
Men take more pains to lose
themselves than would be requis-
lite to keep them in the right
road.
Nature knows no pause In prog
ress and development and at
taches her curse on all inaction.
Order is the sancity Of the
mind, the health of the body, the
peace Of the city, the security of
the State.
