suffering that she herself underwent,
Mildred remained cheerful and pa
tient. Quite frequently she would
ask how some one of her friends
who was ill might be, without a
word of complaint about her own
illness. Mildred will be missed in
the church, the school, the commun-
ity and the home, but those who
knew her, in their hour of sorrow
bid her farewell, knowing that
though her darling form lies sleep
ing in the cold and silent tomb, she
shall have a glorious waking wnen
the blessed Lord doth come"
Following short private service
at the home Friday, Feb. 5, consist
ing of beautiful solo "The Garden
of Prayer" sung by Miss Irene
Price, and prayer by Rev. p. S. Mel
don, the public service was held at
the NJ E. church, and was probably
the largest funeral ever held in that
church. Mr.. Harry Betz sang in
touching manner Beautiful Isle of
Somewhere and quartet consist
ing of Mr.. and Mrs. Betz, Mrs. Jer-
rold Scott and Mr.. r. r. Bell sang
beautifully "It is well with my soul"
and Safe in the Arms of Jesus"
The funeral address given by Rev.
Neldon was based on that passage of
scripture which says "The damsel IS
not dead, but sleeping" in which he
emphasized the tact that Mildred
had only gone to sleep and Jesus
reached out and took her by the
hand and took her home where he
had prepared a place for her. A
touching thing about the service
was the way her little school friends
lined up along the walls Of the
church and stood during the service,
as she was loved by all of them.
Many beautiful floral pieces were
in evidence, expressing the love of
relatives and friends for Mildred,
and sympathy for the dear ones left
behind. Although she has been
taken from us for a while, let US
find comfort in the thought that she
has gone home to Jesus, and may
we so live that when we are called
from this world we may look over
into the next and see her bright
smile welcoming us home to the
place prepared for us,
The pail bearers were Charles and
Lloyd Mautz, Harry and Ronald
Gordon, Bert Clifton and Howard
Sheets, all relatives of the deceased.
Acting as honorary pail bearers
were Mrs Frances Eveland, Misses
Maroaret Cunningham, Marjorie Nc
Kay, Mary Shilling and Evelyn Cor
don. Those from distance in at
tendance at the funeral were Mr..

THE SECRET OF
HAPPINESS
BY DOUGLAS MALLOCH

TN SPITE of speeches, songs and
4 swords,
have seen many men content.
Red flags are waved, and red-hot
words
Are hurled against the battlement
Of wealth entrenched, and kings are
cursed
Yet kings there have been from the
first,
And wealth there will be, l opine
Long after words of yours or mine.
Yet have seen some happiness;
And, strange to say, not always on
The throne, nor always in the press
That swept ahead when thrones were
gone.
Yes, even those who hate employed,
And what they hated thus destroyed.
And far ahead their banners bore,
Seemed little happier than before.
So hate and envy are not all,
I said, whatever flags above.
The very man who makes to fall,
Would you be happy, you must love.
Hate is the passion Of an hour,
But happiness is like a flow'r,
That love must plant, and love must
tend,
And share it's fragrance with q
friend.
Yes, l have seen some men content,
And they but little were concerned
With kings, how others fortunes went,
What others had or others earned.
The secret Of our happiness
Is not a secret hard to guess:
For happiness, find, succeeds
Not greater wealth, but simpler
needs.

COMETHING TO THINK
~ ABOOl .BuF A. WALKER

willing to face obstacles and go to any
trouble to lift up the fallen and bind
the wounds of the injured
1t is the smiling heart that builds a
cheerful fire in the rusty stove Of the
poor mans hut and puts pleasant food
upon his table; it is the smiling heart
that finds warm beds for half-frozen
children and comforts their despairing
mothers; it is the smiling heart that
is helping to bring about the redemp-
ton Of the world and perhaps saving
the worldlingS from destruction.
II you could penetrate the depths Of
the smiling heart, you might discover
that its loveliness came from the bit
ter valleys of sorrow.
Through its own experience, its own
disappointment, its own tears it grew
through the hard sod, sprouted and
burst forth beautiful flower, that the
discouraged might see it and take
heart again and move on toward the
upward path.
The little bent old woman with a
basket on her arm filed with food for
he hungry is carrying with her out
ward evidence of nobility, a heart that
radiates mercy, smiling like the noon
day sun, which she cannot hide be-
meath her thread-worn cloak.
That is the heart-smile, with its lips
that never lie and its eyes that never
ScOrn.
Who at some period of his or her
life does not need the comforting COM
panionship of the smiling heart?
The smiling heart is the invisible
link that binds this world to the world
beyond, neglecting to fill its purse with
gold, but filling the breasts of human
ity with q love as bright as the stars
and a hope eternal.

THE SMILING HEART

V QUILL know at a glance the man
or woman who is on intimate
terms of friendship with the smiling
heart, though the face may be serene
and undemOnstrative, yet beaming
with an unspeakaDle gladness
Lip-smiles have become mechanical,
a mere outward show without mean
ing. Yet so it is; the tale-bearer
smiles the bandit smiles as he pokes
you in the ribs with his gun, steals
your last dollar and robs you of your
sweetheart's picture.
But how different is the heart-smile
rich with unspoken words of love and
truth
The heart that smiles when every
thing goes wrong is the heart that is
abOunding in unstable faith.
It is the heart that is unselfish that
is overflowing with sympathy; that is
