Thoughts on Life
Greatness
By DR.. JOHN w. HOLLAND

NOTHING IS MORE interesting
than to think of the various stand
ards by which people estimate hui
man greatness. To some it is wealth
and the power it brings. Others think
of honor and fame. 1t is often
thought of as the possession of
genius or physical beauty.
What do you think about it?
A good friend of mine tried to
describe the difference between his
father and his mother. He said: ''My
father was a man who lived by the
things he could see. He walked by
the light of his mind. He did a pref
ty good job of it, but he lacked
certain tenderness with me which I
always craved.
my mother was a woman who
lived more by insight. She arrived
at her decisions with a lightning
like rapidity. She felt things in her
bones,' as she often said. She seemed
to know instinctively what was the
l1Sllt plOpC1 tll1lISS W w. Ol1O
lived by her heart, and could sense
effects from their causes. She was
most always right"
Mothers lunches
Perhaps this is, in some measure,
the main difference between men
and women. We men are prone to
rear back proudly in the mistaken
ability to reason things out logical
ly. AS often as not our conclusions
are rather illogical. Women take
short cuts in the occasions where
tenderness, sympathy and under
standing are involved.
Young people are inclined to
jump to the conclusion that their
mothers are trifle on the prudish
side. A man once said, ''My father
always went around the corner of

triangle, while my mother took
the shorter hypotenuse."
Son, daughter, listen a minute:
Your mother knows better than you
can the effects of every questionable
action on your part. She does not
have to learn it. She instinctively
feels it. Your mother is not a Mid
Victorian in retarded development.
She is as up to date as your last
rakish dance step. She lives by in
sight. Was it Napoleon who said,
"Since God could not be everywhere,
He made mothers"
When your mother says: ct don't
quite like this or that friend of
yours" you had best listen. When
you are older, make check-up of
such decisions as you recall, and
you will find that her lunches"
were about SO per cent correct.
Moral Insight
1t was the spiritual and moral in
SlSl1t Wll1(Il CSSuS tilS COtll-
polling force He has ever been in
the realm of human conduct.
You recall that, one day when
Jesus was talking with His disciples,
the question came up: 'Who shall
be greatest in the Kingdom of
Heaven" He set a little child in
their midst and said, in substance,
whoever is most like little child is
greatest At another time, when the
same question was up, Jesus got up
from the table, took basin and
towel, went about and washed the
disciples feet. Greatness consisted
in the ability to best serve other
people.
This constitutes the only greatness
that lifts mankind from the selfish
animal to the serving angel plane
of living.

Dream Trip
By JULIA Il. BEEBE
Lincoln County,

HAVE YOU EVER dreamed of
doing some very wonderful thing?
Our dream was a trip to visit friends
and relatives, to see the country and
to enjoy new and different expert
ences. Then it was that our youngest
son in camp in California present
ed us tickets to the west coast as
Christmas gift. 1t was too wonder
full to believe!
We boarded the train for Wash
ington and made our first stop at
Spokane to visit friends and rela-
tives. While there we went on 400
mile automobile trip to Grand Cou-
lee dam, Dry Falls, Soap Lake and
Quincy. Such variety of country
lakes, rivers, desert and cities,
snow, timber, new towns with
streets of pretty houses.
Leaving Wenatchee we crossed
the Cascade mountains, or I should
say went through them" In Seattle
we visited more relatives. We saw
the Olympic mountains in all their
glory from across the Sound. AS we
left the beautiful city, clouds broke
and Mount Rainier gave us breath
taking moment. Then clouds COW
cred her again.
Friends of 40 Years Ago
Oregon is beautiful state of birds
and flowers and trees. To Eugene,
Roseburg and Grants Pass to visit
friends and relatives, some we had
not seen for 40 years.
Our first stop in California was at
Fresno around which was some of
the --LATEST country ever saw, cot
ton fields already harvested, orange,
lemon, grapefruit, fig and olive
groves with acres of grapes on every
side. At Delano we were taken to
a dairy farm where 200 cows are
MIXED in two hours. They ride on
a moving platform and from one
door to the exit they are fed, wa
tered and MIXED.
In San Diego we had a wonderful
week with our son who was waiting
to be sent to Japan. We visited
places we had heard of but never
expected to see. The first lighthouse.
the mission, Romona's Marriage
| Place, where Helen Junt Jackson's
chair and desk may be seen, the
zoo, Knots Berry farm where the
old west is carefully preserved. Then
on to Hollywood and to Santa Bar
bara where we saw oil drilling ir
the ocean; on up the coast to Sar
Francisco, stopping at San Luis
Obispo, Salinas and Los Gatos. We
crossed on the ferry to Oakland anc
took the train to Salt Lake City.
Salt Lake City
There we had an all-day tour O
the city. visiting Utah's beautiful
capitol and the open pit coppel
mines. We arrived at the Taber
nacle for the famous noon organ re
cital. We spent some time in tn,
museum showing the history of tn,
Mormon people.
On March % our daughter and he
family met us in Spokane ant
brought us home to Lincoln count,
almost two months travelling
about 5000 miles.
