Do you ever "fume" and "fret?"
Here is a picture of yourself if you
do. The word "fume" means to boil
up, to blow off, to emit vapor, to be
agitated, to be distraught, to seethe.
The word "fret” is equally de-
scriptive. It is reminiscent of a sick
child in the night, a petulant half-
cry, half-whine. It ceases, only to
begin again. It has an irritating, an-
noying, penetrating quality.
One reason for our agitation is
fast living. We do not realize how
accelerated the rate of our lives has
become, or the speed at which we
are driving ourselves. Many people
are destroying their physical bodies
and tearing their minds to shreds by
this pace.
The pace of modem life must be
reduced if we are to deal with this
debilitating over-stimulation and
super-excitement. This over-stim-
ulation produces toxic poisons in
the body and creates emotional ill-
ness. It produces fatigue and a
sense of frustration so that we fume
and fret about everything from our
personal troubles to the state of the
nation and the world.

"If I write you a prescription,
will you follow it?" asked the doc-
tor.
This, believe it or not, was the
prescription. His patient was to
take off two hours every working
day and go for a long walk. Then
he was to take off a half-day a
week and spend that half-day in a
cemetery.
In astonishment the patient de-
manded, "Why should I spend a
half-day in a cemetery?"
"Because," answered the doctor,
"I want you to wander around and
look at the gravestones of men who
are there permanently. Many of
them are like you; they are there
because they thought the whole
world rested on their shoulders.
Remember that when you get there
< permanently, others can do the
work you are now doing."
Jesus said to his disciples:
"Come aside by yourselves to a de- -•
serted place and rest a while"
(Mark 6:31). If we don't come apa t
and relax, we will come apart. Here
is strength for living in a fast paced
society.

what an enormous amount of work
he had to do and that he had to get
it done quickly.
"I take my brief case home ev-.

said with nervous inflection.
"Why do you take work home
with you at night?" the doctor
asked quietly.
"I have to get it done," he
fumed.
"Cannot someone else do it, or

"No," the man snapped. "I am

The elementary has been very
busy. On Jan. 29 they celebrated
their 100th day of school for this
year. They had several activities for
the day, each child brought can
food and counted it and then pre-
sented it to Mrs. Mary Shivers for
the food clospt at the Multi-Purpose
Center. At the end of the day, they
. released 100 balloons into the air.
A few days later, Mrs. Hodnett re-
ceived a letter from a Gary student
stating that he had found one of the
balloons. This really excited the
children that one of their balloons
was found.
On Monday, Feb. 17 at 10 a.m.,
one of the elementary teachers will
"Kiss a Pig." This was a fund raiser
where the students voted with
. quarters for the teacher that they
wanted to kiss the pig. The money
will go toward prizes and other
items for the Accelerated Reader
Program.
On Feb. 6, the kindergarten stu-
dents spent the day at the Discov-
ery Science Place. It is a children's
math and science museum located
in Tyler.
