"Parents are people in their own rights, They would appreciate being ap- preciated. Do children understand their parents? Young people should try to see things from the parents' point of view. Our parents were young people at one time. They had difficulties with their parents. Our parents grew up in a past - war world. They are living through us. Their love for us is unmeasured. They have a deep satisfaction in seeing us grow and learn. The president, Miss Elizabeth Finlay took charge of the business. The EYF..had charge of the Parents' Day Service on Sunday, May 10, with Miss Mary Grainger acting as chair -lady. Mrs. Milton Oesch presided at the organ. Miss Catherine Thiel led in prayer.

NORMA SIEBERT, The world is so full of a number of things. That we should all be as happy as kings. Everybody wants to be happy. It is the underlying motive of all our labour and our struggle. We work hard in order to provide our- selves and our families with the material necessities for. happiness. While most of us exaggerate the importance of material things, it will be generally agreed that some "things" are necessary. Even our most unselfish acts are prompted by a hidden desire to give oursel- ves the satisfaction and the pleas- ure of helping someone else, which is a very real source of happiness. While many may not agree with me, I am sure that happiness is the highest good of human life, and that if we lived in a world that everyone was happy, we would be living a world without war or crime—a world that would be Heaven itself. The Master came to bring joy to a darkened and sorrowful wor- ld. He said, "I am come that my joy may remain with you, and that your joy might be full." So the search for happiness, for ourselves and for others is not an unworthy quest. It has the approval of Jes- us Christ. We must be careful, however, to distinguish between happiness and pleasure. Happiness is m u c h greater and deeper than having fun. We can be happy even if we are not having fun, and we can be gay, and laugh, and have our jok- es, and still be very unhappy, be- cause happiness is an inward thing, It is not on the surface, and it is more concerned with what we are than what we do or say. For this reason, happiness does not consist in having things. If this were true, we would be a very happy generation. Some people think they would be happy if they had more money. Maybe they would. Money cer- tainly helps. But while it is true there is no happiness in poverty, it is equally true that money in its- elf has no power to make us hap- py. It has been truly said that happiness lies half way between too little and too much. Similarly, health makes a great contribution to happiness. In a period of illness, I remember look- ing at people who are well, with- o%ht an ache or a pain, and wond- ering why they were not singing with joy. But they weren't and after I got better, I found that I didn't always go around in an ex- uberance of jay, as I thought I would. I should have remembered that Robert Louis Stevenson, who hardly knew an hour without pain and sickness, was one of the hap- piest of men. Happiness is not an accident of circumstances. It is an achievement. It is an inward vic- tory over things and conditions. How Can 1? Q. How can I keep bruises from swelling? A. By applying immediately a cloth about five folds in thick- ness, dipped in cold water. When the cloth becomes warm, renew the wetting. Q. How can I preserve leather bindings? A. Leather book bindings may be preserved by periodic treat- ments with an equal mixture of castor oil and paraffin. B.A., Woman's Page Editor) Happiness comes .when we achieve a harmony with ourselves, and the world around us. • "Your body"—said the Prophet, "is the harp of your soul. And it is yours to bring forth sweet mus- ic from it ,or confused sounds." Happiness is within reach of ev- eryone of us. It is our God given right. But it is ours only as we discipline ourselves to learn to live in harmony with God's world, with God's laws, with God's creatures, and with ourselves. It is true that no one can live wrong and be happy. Teen Topics How many of you girls spend half your allowance or more on cosmetics. Yet many of these could be replaced by formula you could make up at home for a frac- tion of this cost. Here are two formulas for hand lotion that you will find particul- larly effective, 3 oz. Rose Water, 2 oz. Witch Hazel, % oz. Glycerine, 1 teas- poon Borax. Method: Put all the ingredients in a large bottle and shake well. 1 oz. rubbing alcohol, 1% oz. Glycerine, 1% drams tragracanth, and enough soft water to make 16 ounces. Method: Dissolve tragracanth in a part of soft water and beat with an egg beater. Add the other in- gredients and enough water to complete the 16 ounce in all. Beat up well and add a few drops of your favourite perfume. Keep tightly corked. Or if you prefer a hand cream, try the following: Melt 4 oz. Mutton Tallow; strain through a cloth. Let cool until it begins to thicken and then add 2 oz. Glycerine. Beat this with an egg -beater until is be- comes a soft creamy substance. A few drops of perfume may be added. This is a really excellent hand cream. To make your skin creams go further, use them warm. They will not loose their effectiveness if the texture is slightly more greasy or "thin". Before cream - nig your face, set the jar on your radiator or in a bowl of hot water. Do nylon hose slip around on your legs? Try applying a touch of vanishing cream or hand lotion to your legs before putting on stock- ings. This not only keeps your hose smooth, but prevents rough- ness or chapping of your legs. And here's a hint about washing your nylons. Avoid strong soaps and cake soap rubbing. Dirt washes "off" your nylon stockings, not "out" of then -i. Just dip your stockings in mild safe suds. i' Boys and Girls Little boys Are made of noise; Electric trains And model planes, Of bubble gum And beating drum, Of ball and bat, And things like that Little girls Are made of curls, Of ruffled clothes, And bright hair bows, Of baby dolls, And Jacks and balls, Of bracelets, rings, And pretty things.
