WINNING THE

Realizing ambition - getting

1t means fixing your wish as a
central object In your mind--in
your life-and making every cir

means willing sacrifice; giving
up whatever is likely to take the
attention and energy away from
pursuit of the ambition. Sacrifice

The goal must be fine. and
any goal which is fine enough
may be achieved and IL you say
that this is not so, that you have

THE ROCKING
CHAIR

When was the rocking chair
invented? The earliest known
record is bill rendered in 1774
for "bottoming a rocking chair"
This style OF chair was inspired
by the rocking cradle used by
the Colonists. and the chair was
primarily intended for either in
valids or children.
From the Mentor Magazine.
Tests made i'm the indoor swim

Club have disclosed that the water

TEN COMMANDMENTS OF TIKI
NATIONAL FOREST

l. Thou shalt not smoke in any part
Of national forest closed to smokers.
For verify a cigarette costing but a
fraction Of cent, when thrown into
the brush can destroy hundreds of
trees which will be needed some day to
keep the Northwest prosperous.
2. Thou shalt not build thy camp fire
except In posted camp. For verify a
small spark blown into the grass, can
lay waste to vast areas of valuable
watershed.
3. Thou shalt not pollute any stream,
for the thirsty wayfarer careth not to
drink the washings OF thy feet nor the
feet of thy children.
3. Thou shalt not defsce the trees,
for the other mixers careth not about
thy name, thy address. nor thy love
affairs
s. Thou shalt not build camp fire
before obtaining permit, for the rang
er fain would talk with thee before
thou ventureth into the forest.
9. Thou shalt not leave litter OF
papers and tin cans when thou aban-
don the camp, for 1t maketh thy play
ground look like city dump.
z. Thou shalt not pick the flowers
nor the shrubs. nor dig up small trees
to take home, for If every one did thus,
the national forests would soon be
denuded OF all vegetation.
3. Thou shalt not take offense If the
ranger stoppeth to caution thee about
thy camp fire, for verify he is friend
ly fellow, and hath the interest of thy
forest at heart.
0. Thou shalt not make targets of the
rangers signs, for he has worked many
hours TO place these signs for the
guidance Of visitors.
10. Thou shalt not do anything which
marreth or destroyeth the beauty of
the forests. for II one approacheth
them in peace and reverence, he shall
again find his soul which he loseth in
the city.

And dance the whole night long.
