The topic Sentence, "Daydreaming is not a waste of time," was an enigmatical one for any stud- ent. Would it not be for Yon? Day-dreaming is not a waste of time. It is the spirit that stimulates ambition in every human being. If it were not for day-dreaming o u r civilization might have been thousands of years behind time, To-day day- dreaming is essential to any man or woman who is to get ahead in life. Those who never day- dream may realize a certain amount of prosperity during their lives but they miss one of life's greatest wonders and never bene- fit the world much for their existence. Of course day-dreaming with- out any ambition to fulfill one's dreams is strictly a waste of time. Similarly, day - dreaming ..when one should be doing something much more important is out of place too. It seldom happens that anyone realize the full extent of his day-dreams, but it seems to spur him on to greater hopes and I positions than he normally ,woiald have attained. Withwt day - dreaming this world would be a dull place in, deed, for no one would have imagination, ambition, nor ideas on the future. Thus the world, would go on unchanging. The lack of any day-dreaming might be dangerous for all civilization as it creates a picture of fnture, events, putting a curb on many dangerous projects which near- sighted individuals might under- take. Day-dreaming seems to be a kind of nook in our minds where we can put all our cherished ideas and dreams and recall them at a moment's notice. This nook is a world all of our own, apart from the material world, a place where we can think, act, and do as we please. Here we realize all our sought-after dreams. If a human being could never imagine his goal in life, his am- bition would not have too much strength. That is why certain generals are better than others, one doctor is better than another, and so on. Although these men would never credit day-dreaming as the key to their success, never- theless it is one of the most im- portant factors, — BRUCE Mac- DONALD. 76th ANNIVERSARY North Street United Church, God- BRUSSELS—The 76th anniver- ' erich.
