Ontario Pottery making requires knowledge of science When one of our girls was spending several weeks in the hospital a few years ago someone brought her a Snoopy nightgown with these words printed on it, `Happiness is Sleeping in Your Own Bed.' Lonely, sick, and tired of hospital routine this was exactly what she felt . . if only she could get home and sleep in her own bed she would be happy again. But, for awhile, at least, it was not possible. So, it is with most of us who seek happiness. It often seems just beyond our reach. To the Poor, happiness is having more money; to the Lonely, it is companionship; to the Businessman, it may be having more leisure. The Uneducated might say, "Happiness is having a degree and a career to go with it, while the Educated may feel it is being a native of some uncivilized area away from the fear of nuclear warfare and the constant grind of committees and other pressures. To the Old, happiness is being young again, and to the Young it is doing your own thing with no responsibilities to anyone. * While happiness means different things to many people we all strive for it. Indeed, we must have it if we are to be healthy, well balanced human beings. Two famous doctors writing a book, How to Live 100 Years Happily, state that 35% to 50% of ill people are sick, principally, because they are unhappy. Jesus urged his followers to be happy. "Rejoice . . . and again I say rejoice," he told them. His purpose is to teach people how to be alive, how to make the most of all the faculties with which they have been endowed .. , how to be relaxed and freed from conflicts and enter into a state of harmony necessary to a well ordered person. * * * How can this state of mind be achieved? Many of us rush about pursuing it only to have it evade us every time we think we are getting close. Now that they've been to the moon and taken pictures of Mars, scientists are looking for signs of intelligent life on earth. It's something like chasing a beautiful Monarch butterfly that flies away everytime we,are about to drop the net, Perhaps, if we were to sit down quietly it might come and light on us. Or, it's like children who run after the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow not knowing that to get real gold it must be dug out of rock or panned laboriously in a stream. * It seems that Happiness cannot be sought and found for its own sake nor for its own end, Charles Kingsley said, "We act as if comfort and luxury were the chief requirements . . . when all we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about.". The late King George VI wrote to a friend, "Happiness doesn't come from doing what you like but learning to like what you do." But, perhaps the Apostle Paul held the real secret. He said, "I have learned to be content (happy) in whatsoever state I find myself." In other words, he looked for happiness wherever he was and ma de the best of the circumstances no matter what they were. A more contemporary writer, Dale Carnegie, urged his readers, "When you have lemons ... make lemonade." Pull happiness out from the Focts N Fancies 13. y Gwyn condition you find yourself and the things surrounding you. A little girl once wrote in her essay, "My Twelve Loveliest Things, People Not Counted: "The scrunch of dry leaves as you walk through them; the feel of clean clothes; water running in the tub; the cool of ice cream; a cool wind on a hot day; climbing up and looking back; honey in your mouth; smell of a drugstore; hot water bottle in bed; babies smiling; the feeling inside when you sing; baby kittens." Renowned preacher Dr. Norman Vincent Peale urges us to "think happiness, talk happiness, practice happiness, share happiness, saturate your mind with happiness and you will have the time of your life." To do this there are things we must quit. We must quit being mad at people and critical of them; quit doing wrong; quit being fearful; quit thinking of ourselves and go out and do something for others, loving them and looking for their good points. In short, Happiness comes from forgetting ourselves . . . to see beyond our daily incidents and shift our gaze to the needs and innermost feelings of others. I can be about as happy As I make up my mind to be; For it's not so much what happens As what's in the heart of me! Stu dents attended from Ontario and Quebec and from as far away as Halifax, British Columbia and New York. At the school Mrs. Doerr studied all phases of pottery-making, which included potting on the wheel, the chemistry of glazing and the geology of clay bodies, under the direction of Mrs. Wanda Rozinska, one of Canada's leading potters. From the knowledge gain at this course she feels she will be better equipped to develop her own skills and hopes to produce pottery with a distinctive 'Doerr' design and technique. The chemistry of glazing is a science, and potters often spend years experimenting with different minerals to achieve a color or effect that is original. Once they strike on a formula that is unique they guard it with extreme care. The local potter has taken several other courses in ceramics and last year installed a potters wheel and an electric kiln in the basement of her home. Mrs. Doerr taught two potting classes in her home last winter and plans to have a small class again this fall. Mrs. Jack Doerr has returned from a two week course, `Techniques de Ceramiques' at the Rozinska School of Pottery, Way's Mills, Quebec, which is situated in the Eastern Townships near the Vermont border.

HOMEMAKING HINTS If your butter is too hard to cream, a quick solution, say home economists at Macdonald Institute, University of Guelph, is to shred the butter into a warmed bowl and then to cream, Cutting a cake into layers is simple using this method suggested by home economists at Macdonald Institute, University of Guelph. Mark the height of the cut with toothpicks. Circle the cake at this level with a piece of thread. Cross the ends and pull the thread toward you.
