A Woman's Viewpoint on This and That
•
By0MBA'
"THE FAULT, dear Brutus,
is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are
underlings"
This quotation from Shake-
speare's "Julius Caesar", has been
used time after time throughout
the centuries to explain away
man's mistakes and weaknesses
Bath in fact and in fiction,
stress has been plated continually
on 'inherent weaknesses of char-
acter which have been the cause
of failure and unhappiness . • .
H 5 d,
J. M. Barrie Scottish novelist
and dramatist in the early pant
of this century, 'built a delight-
ful fantasy around this 'theme
of Shakespeare's in a play en-
titled "Dear utus" ' • . In
this, a group of mixed oharaote:rs,
who had ell known unhappiness
end failure are, lhhroilgh the
magical agency of a Puck -like
creature, given a second chance
to relive their lives . ". But
although their circumstances are
different,their characters re-
main the same and they each
fail in the same way es they
did originally • .. And so Barrie
lived up to the Shakespearean
quotation .
'1 ,3 *
THERE has always been one
outstanding 'example opposed to
this gloomy thesis that inherent
weaknesses cannot be )changed
or overcome and that is the
teaeh4'ngs'of the Bible—especially
of the New Testament In.
modern writings, it has taken a
Canadian scientist and leotuter,
Albert E. Cliffe, who although
he has not the gift with the pen
of o Shakespeare or a Barrie, to
show, in two smell volumes, how
man by bis ,thoughts every hour
of the day. 'can mould his char -
eater, and his aotrions These
books are - "Lessons In Laving"
and "Let Go and Let God" , •

MR. Cliffe's philosophy is bas-
ed on a positive attitude to re-
ligion . , , It is simple Christian
teaching By having complete
faith in God and keeping that
faith uppermost • in the mind
throughout the day, by ignoring
any negative or unkind thoughts,'
by positive .thinking and actions,
that Is by looking fox: -the Christ
within yourself and within every-
one else, you gain a basis for
airing that will give you ,the cor-
rect mental attitude to overcome
past failures andweaknesses of

Baby Chicks Saved

Mr. Scott, who was workingin
the .Ibarn, discovered the Sire at
the base of a chimney and cal-
Ied Seaforth Fire Brigade.
Daonage to the barn was term-
ed "considerable."
mea -ter the' book in a style that
makes fascinating reading
His constant stressing the fact
that if Christians hourly and
daily practice their faith, they
can "Let Go" all negative
thoughts such as the failures of
yesterday, harbouring meanness
and resentment against others,
worries about health or the fu-
ture and "Let God" take aver
and acting and thinking accord-
ing, they oan find the way to
joyous, abundant, and healthful
1•iving . , A revival of faith is
badly needed in these worrisome
times and anything, such as this
little bock, which oan help bring
it about is badly needed .

and man does not need to remain
an "underling," if he has faith
and acts upon it , :
