J. DENTINGER, PASTOR OF ArSHFIELD PARISH Everyone agrees that it is a common desire within all people to wish to be happy in life. Also the happiness would include the- feeling of contentment. A person's face never lies - it has been called a book wherein man may read strange matters and faces of many people reveal that they have not found either contentment or happiness in their life. Some turn to travel and go off to lakes, mountains or distant lands, only to find that there is no magic chest filled with happiness waiting for them, And, if they revel to escape iness is 1 vzng Mhuister 's study personal problems, they soon find that they have car- ried them along with them, together with their bags. Many seek happiness in pleasure, for pleasure is often canfused with hap- piness.any are the doors that lead to pleasure but few there are that lead to hap- piness. There is a saying that hap- piness, is seldom found in the tents of prosperity. One ex- ample of this is seen in the life of a man born near the LWML holds spring rally The Mitchell Zone Lutheran Women's Mis- sionary League (LWML) Spring Rally held Monday evening, May 4, at Redeemer Lutheran Church, Monkton, was attended by, 121.

He was the son of a wealthy cloth merchant - Francesco Bernardone - and had a destiny waiting for him, a destiny that was to make him beloved of the peo- ple and become known as the little brother of the poor. Like any youth with too much money in his pocket, he spent much of his time with the sons of other wealthy families and came to look upon, life as a kind of revelry without meaning.

A short way down the road, he paused tb look back but the leper was nowhere to be seen.
