Do We Want to be Unhappy?
By "PEG"
Some may say what a foolusli ques-
tiem toask. That may be so, yet
there are many of us who are trying
to make our selves •unhappy. Brow
can we bring ourselves into that
state afi' mind?
Happineet consists in being cone
tented. Therefore the question eomies
down to 'what are we going to do
to make ourselves diseontented?
Grumbling is one major way of
making:ourselves unhappy, Olne of
the first things y'e do in the morn-
ing is to look out of the window and.
remark, sometimes to the point of
grumbling, about the kind of weabher
God has sent to us. It may be our
plans foe the day °are slpoiled, but
there must, be some eeason for rainy
weather or we would not have et.
Sozne'one remarked recently ,that in
spite of the wet weather we had this
spring, when she went out to her
plot of ground • a few days after the
rain ceased, it was as hard as if
there had been no rain at •all. ' Al pass.
ing remark about the weather is al-
right, but when it comes to grum-
bling day after day !about it, we have
tonne to the place where we are sin-
ning. God rules the world, and if we
were not intended to have rain or
very ,hot, humid days, do we think
they would • ,be sent to us? We have

ing that sill things : will workout in

are busy:trying to make a formula
which will cause rain. One Of their-
problems is that if they want raineto

rain in Ottawa,. and Toronto will be

should appreciate our food.
iMany of us :have taken or are tak-
ing our holidays.. Have we been sat -
idled with ,them, or have we made
ourselves unhappy because we could
not go to sonne of the places where
perhaps our better -off friends have
been able to go. Young men and
young women, have we taken our
holidays and gene away to have a
4 geed time, and have we left clue
mother or father behind, us if they
were able to go, Mothers have strug-_
gled along to get aur clothes ready
and packed, have stood at the door
OT on the station platform and have
said good-bye to us and 'we have
gone on our way without dhinking
of the one who has done so much for
us. We have given no thought to the
fact that they need a holiday per -
harps more than we do. Unhappiness
comes into the ease when they have
been taken from us 'and with remorse
we think of the extra happy days
we Wright have had with them if we
only had been considerate enough to
invite them to go with us, not on a
paying basis, but as n great privi-
lege.
Another thing which will make us
unhappy is the feet that we allow
jealousy to become part of 'our being.
Little by little it creeps in, at first
unknown o us, and by the time we
realize it is there it has grown to
such proportions that without God's
help we cannot: get mid of it. Many
homes are broken up just because
this element of iniquity is allowed
