Have you ever suddenly realized
how many amazingly beautiful
things we take for granted?
Too often, when heckled by life's
little problems, the grandeur Of a
snowfall, the gorgeous beauty of a
sunset, q new moon In a spring
sky and the blazing colors of fall
go unnoticed. ~
The person who derives comfort
and inspiration from the moods of
nature is natures child and is apt
to have better health, stay young
longer, and enjoy life more than
the one who is far away in con-
seriousness from these miracles.
just take flowers, for instance!
The variations in shape and color,
the complex beauty of a flower,
and so many different kinds of
flowers, are really things to ponder
over. Flowers have always been
part of the special occasion; the
wedding, Easter, love and court
ship, birthdays, parties and funer-
ais.
Today women are using flowers
more and more as a part of their
costumes. We see not only q

sage at a special time, but flowers
are now worn more and more In
the hair, at the wrist, in earrings
and In all kinds Of new ways.
Even so, it seems to me that
many persons fail to enjoy flow
'ers as they should. Most women
cannot afford to buy dollhouse
flowers for the house except for
special occasions. Many Of these
grow flowers themselves and
therefore have the pleasure Of Gre
ating something of beauty with
their own hands.
There is something about flow
ers in the house which adds to
the peace and charm of home at
mosphere as well as to the beauty
of the interior decoration.
Why not have a flower garden
as a hobby? You do not have tc
start out in an expensive or ar
elaborate way. This hobby not
only provides you with flowers for
the house but 1t gets you outdoors
and in the sunshine. It brings
you close to the good earth and
thats always means more health
and more beauty.

Earning and
Spending
By AnqeIo Potri

Boys and girls in their teens like
to do a bit of work that brings
them money and they should be
allowed to enjoy this privilege
both for the thrill Of earning,
which is the least important
factor in the matter, and for the
maturity of outlook, the stimula-
ton of growth such an experience
affords.
AS usual with every maturing
experience children enjoy, or en-
dure, this one brings its own pro-
blems. How is the money the
youngster earns to be handled?
Is he, or she, to spend it in
treats, save it entirely, share it
with his parents? OF course the
answer must vary according to
the conditions but one point must
be steadfast: Some part of the
money must be granted the child
to spend as he likes.
Grown people have, of neces-
sity, a different view of money
than any child can have. To chill
dren. money is something to spend
for the fun, the prestige, the salts
factions it brings.
Forced saving will not teach a
child the right use of money. The
child must be. guided so that he
will learn to save a part of his
money for something he wants,
such as bike, skates. sports out
fit. That is good place to begin.
The children understand the need
for play equipment where they do
not understand the need for gro
ceries. insurance, and like nee
essities of adult living. Any teach
ing. to be of lasting effect, must
start where the child stands on
the basis of maturity. 1t is still
true that you can't put old heads
on young shoulders. much as
adults long to do so sometimes.
Play, fun, entertainment are as
important for children as their
daily meals but, just as we do
not allow child to overeat sweets,
meat. any one item of diet. we
do. not allow him to overdo his
indulgence in treats. We guide
him in the division of his funds
according to the demands of the
situation. for his own good.
We must be careful here as else
where not to base teaching or
authority on our own selfish in
terest. What we direct, advise
and demand must be honestly
felt to be for the child's good. It
must add to the child's healthy
maturity of body and mind.
Otherwise we better keep our
hands off the situation.
But suppose the family is in
actual need of the money the
child earns? That is rarely the
truth in America. but when it is
so the child is likely to under
stand it, having experienced the
actual need, and lend his support
gladly. In the few cases where
a child refuses to help, the trou-
BILE is rooted in the family rela-
Itionships which must be adj
justed before anything worth
while can be done to help the
situation.

T axe My Word for 1t
By Fronk Colby
What's the Origin?

The word gopher is the English
form of the French word gaufre,
pronounced: GO-fruh. But the
French gaufre does not mean a
rodent like the American pest
gaufre is "a honeycomb," also "a
waffle" The gopher is so called
because its burrows honeycomb the
earth in wafflelike runways.
The word swindle was borrowed
from the German verb schwindeln,
ito be giddy or dizzy" The Ger
man will say: mir schHindelt,
meaning, my brain is reeling; I
am giddy." The German schwindel
and the English swindle evolved
thus: giddiness; vertigo; anything
so wildly extravagant as to make
one dizzy; hence, a fraud, charla-
tanism, cheating.
The word curtail is an especially
fine word trophy for our collection
It began with the Latin curtus
short" which became the French
courtaud, with the tail cut short,
which became the English curtal
"a horse or dog with a docked tail.
Now an English verb was needed
to express the ideal of docking the
tail of an animal So strong was
the association with the word tail
that the noun curtal actually grew
tail, becoming the verb curtail
meaning "to dock the tall" And
now, of course, to curtail means
simply to shorten or make less.
Another word to reward your yea
is gargoyle. Who would believe
that basically gargoyle means etc
gargle?" The original word was
the Latin gurgulio, "the gullet; the
windpipe." This became the French
gargouille, water spout of gut
ter" because of the gurgling OF
gargling noise which water makes
when pouring from a spout.
Now in European architecture, II
is customary to fashion such water
spouts in the shape of fantastic
demons, the mouths of which act as
the spouts. The gargoyles (this is
the English form) of Notre Dame
de Paris are famous the world over
Gargoyle, gargle, gurgle and gullet
all stem in the Latin gurgulio.
It's hard to believe that a de.
lirious person is silly farmer who
cannot plow a straight furrow, but
it's true. The Latin world is de.
liro, ''to 60 out of a straight furrov
apparently because of high fever
or other illness)";; hence, to deviats
from straight line; hence the ad'
jective delirus, SILLY, doting, crazy"
hence, the English delirious, wan.
dering in mind; insane; demented.'

Two years after it is too late to do
much good, the light is dawning on
the Administration in Washington
and the withered daily press of this
country, even on some Congressman,
that the Marshall Plan is the finan-
cial fiasco of all time, the SIS billion
dumped into China has brought no
return, except jealous sight of Mad

the socialites of New York and Rio

Powers, the German Chemical Works,

our war in Greece would be a good
thing if we were fighting the King
instead of the Greek people.
Secretary of State Acheson seems
to have some brains and sense of
decency. He does not believe in Witch
Hunts. He realizes that verdict of a
Federal Jury based on the word of a
confessed perjured liar does not
mean anything except that Alger
Hiss did not belong to the right Tong
or Capitalistic Clique in Washington.
(Acheson knows that by the system
of drawing panels in the Federal
Courts, juries can be packed in favor
of the Attorney Generals office, or
the Big Corporations, or anyone
dominating the local jury commission
er and clerk of any local Federal
Court.)
Acheson's refusal to help Chang
further, and his firm denial of
military aid to Chang in Formosa,
is the first real sensible act of our
Foreign Policy since the death of
Franklin Roosevelt. But it is too
little and too late.

We are not using the Atom Bomb

they are doing. Even the Hoover

more for war.
This is queer war. In other wars
we had to keep fighting until the en-

Third. We will strengthen free
dom-loving nations against the dan
gers of aggression.
Fourth. We must embark on a
bold new program for making the
benefits of our scientific advances
and industrial progress available
for the improvement and growth of
underdeveloped areas"
THAT is THE whole theory of
our foreign policy. But conditions

our principal allies were the United
Kingdom, Russia, China and
France Both England and France
have been hard hit, all but knocked
out economically. Both are on the
road to recovery with our help.
The Nationalist government of
China is now virtually in exile on
Formosa. Russia adopted a course
to conquer the world through the
infiltration of atheistic commu-
nism, through deceit, fraud and
open aggression in Korea.
Our foreign policy and our eff
forts toward the freedom loving
peoples Of the world now have be-
come world wide as the only strong
nation powerful enough to with
stand the Russian bear. We have
sought common security in the North
Atlantic pact. We have held Japan.
The American people in the past
have not been internationally mind
ed. When we have been drawn into
armed conflict it has been our pol
icy to knock out our opponent and
then consider the job done, 60
home, break training and enjoy
ourselves. AS a result, that explains
the wisecrack that the United
States has never lost a war nor
won a peace. We have been loath
to engage in the political battles
which inevitably and probably
more Importantly follow military
victories.
In Korea our policy was set by
the United Nations. We occupied
that unhappy country south of the

free and independent government.

Water Policy WastefuI?
by jim RHoDYM

Probably the most damning indict-
ment of our present wasteful ma
tional water policy ever to be writ
ten has just been turned over to
President Humans new Water Re-
sources Policy commission, &C.
cording to the Wildlife Manage
ment Institute. An 8O-man commit
tee of the Engineers Joint Council,
representing the country's five ma
jor engineering societies, prepared
the report, which is couched in
clear, sharply worded language.
About one-third Of the committee
members have served with federal
agencies, and the authority Of the
report is unimpeachable.
Nine task forces made the basic
study. The report deplored "ambig-
uous, uncoordinated, and conflict
ing" federal policies concerning
power, irrigation, flood control,
navigation, and other water re-
sources projects. Warning that
"evaluation of project is the first
requisite the report attacked
boon-doggling and log-rolling in
stressing such items as local re-
sponsibility, need for equitable al
location of costs, and the "fallacy
of incentive payments" to landown-
ers for soil conservation practices.
Although the report did not direct
itself to the activities of any one
agency, it cited the fact that the
Department of the Interior, Corps of
Engineers, Department of Agricul-
ture, Federal Power Commission,
us. Public Health Service, Wealth
er Bureau, Coast and Geodetic
Survey, and many others are con-
cerned with one phase or another
of water development. AS the num-
Der of federal agencies involved
has grown and 'as these have risen
in stature their overlapping func-
tons have become increasingly
striking and their competitions
have become impressively expen-
sive." The present situation is de-
cribed as Chaotic" Haphazard
development of vital water re-
sources was denounced by the en-
gineers who especially decried
projects developed and construct
ed, and often operated, by the agen-
cy originating them.
To alleviate competition between
agencies, which is fostered by this
practice, and to safeguard the pub
lie against exaggerated intangible
benefit claims as well as improper
ALLEGATION of costs between general
taxpayers and project beneficiaries,
the report recommended creation
of a board for the impartial anal
ysis and appraisal of all federal
water projects. Such a board would
also serve to protect the public
against "the present excessive and
economically unsound rate of plan
ming and congressional authorizing
of developments, since the boards
review would be prerequisite to
the authorization of appropriation
by congress of or for projects of
| this kind
