There comes a time in every mans
life when he has reached his zenith,
when he has arrived, when he desires
to drift from there ON out In such
a state of mind he is likely to become
indignant when some other fellow who
is still struggling bumps into him as
he passes him by. The world keeps
up its human interest by the contin-
uous changing of processes and meth
ods. II is a great man indeed who
can adjust himself to the ever chang
ing conditions and be a booster and
not a cynic.

An examination of the past is inter
esting, and dream of the future
brings hope; but happiness depends
upon living today.
The joy of today depends to some
extent upon the memories of yester-
day. and is heightened by the anticipa-
tion of tomorrow but the Niger sings
in the cotton because he has forgotten
both.
Too much self-examination turns the
forces of the mind inward. Work and
play turn them outward. He who is
busy with living lays the basis for
happiness. Man is like vegetable.
The means of growth comes from the
outside, and the direction Of growth is
outward. The act of growth is the
source of health; and growth, with
joy, comes to those who work hard
and play intelligently.
This is the day-the very day of
days; and the person who realizes it
lays the physical and mental founda-
tion of joy. The man who can pro-
tect his past by clean record, and his
future by cheerful attitude, usually
has small doctor bills; and both are
attained more easily by living one day
at time than by bearing the double
burden Of the past and the future upon
the mind.
You do not KNOW that the price Of
cotton will be low next fall, so toss
away your worries and work up a
whistle.

The school revenues of Arkansas are
in bad condition. There is only one
remedy-only one way open. The
schools must have more money. AT a
recent session of the Ways and Means
Committee of the Arkansas Education
al Association it was the unanimous
opinion that the adoption of the PRO
posed rs min tax amendment is imper-
ative. Without IL the schools will he
weakened beyond the point Of efficient
service. The Fort Smith Southwest
Times Record, one of the most consist
ent advocates of improved schools,
hits the nail on the head in the follow
ing:
'It's hard to see why anybody should
oppose it. And yet the amendment will
not be adopted unless some effective
work is done in its behalf. The natur-

The time-honored community picnics
that featured cakes, pies and other
rich foods and left children and grown
ups alike with indigestion the next day,
have been abandoned in many parts Of
the country in favor of the picnic with
a balanced menu. Such picnic tastes
better, is easier to prepare, and leaves
everybody happy. 1t requires some
planning ahead, however. Instead Of
suggesting that each homemaker bring
what she happens to think of to the
community picnic, menu is decided
on by committee, and then each
woman Is asked to prepare some one
or two dishes. Then when all the parts
Of the meal are assembled 1t Is we'll

Of Summit community, Benton county,
Oregon, putting this idea into prac-
tice. The menu includes everything
that goes to make well-balanced

are some that might be brought: cas-

Clipped beef, eggs, or fish meat loaf !;

managed for heating up soup which
has been made beforehand or for cook
ing bacon, frankfurters. or steak.
Almost any kind Of fruit, vegeta-

sandwiches. Many different kinds Of
bread can be used for variety, how
ever: Rolls or biscuit made with white

For beverage, lemonade, orange and

For dessert ice cream or sherbet

Is also delicious. For instance, sliced
