GENERAL OBSERVATIONS I
By W. H. T.
At the first glance, it seems a pity.
that we cannot all see eye to eye,
because if we could the world would
surely be mitre like what we think
heaven is than• it is now. On the
other hand there' are some who think
the world wintltl be a dull place if
everybody saw things from the same
view point. So, here you are again,
confronted by a difference of view,
arid all we can ,.lo is to leave this
matter in. abeyance 'as a' debatable
point,
We wonder whether' domestic life
would he sweeter if'husband and
wife always saw things from the
Saone angle. Some answer in the af-
firmative while others say that the
,
if-
discussion which. results from d
ference of view,, tends to stir, up the
waters of house life, and tial 1cetp
them from stagnating... This ' is
;something for you, gentle reader; to
think about.
