CURIOSITY AND LEARNING
One of the keys to knowledge js
curiosity, and this trait is often
discouraged by some of us. The
child that Is curious Is the one who
will learn.
The curious adult Is, likewise,
the one who continues to improve
hit mind and expund his know-
ledge as the yeurs go by. Without
curiosity—the urge to know why—
there is little incentive to investi-
gate, study and sqlve the mysteries
of life.
It is often a surprise to iieople to
learn that n famous intellectual is
stimulated by a simple occurrence,
such as the strange Way a plant
grows, or the odd color of a flow-
' er If that person, so taken by an
j apparent triviality. Is a great
scientist or scholar, the tendency
of many is to dismiss him, or her.
as an eccentric or a •‘nut."
But this Is to miss the point.
The Intelligent person is curious
about all the mysteries which sur-
J round him. He wonders why an
, engineer built a bridge this or that do about it?
j way, he wonders how a spider can
i spin such a marvelous web, he
or fish,
A HAPPY FAMILY
The world Is heavily iwpulated
with Individuals who would do
“great tilings" if they hod fine
positions or plenty of money. How-
ever. the world hu* very few men
or women who are striving to do
the little things In life in a manner
that befits the doing of the great
things.
There la much tan- today, for ex-
ample about tlie value of family
life Whal do the average father
and mother. In this duy, so for
tlie benefit of family life? For that
matter, what contributions does
file young son, or the young daugh-
ter, feel Impelled to make in de-
veloping a happy family circle that,
in too many instances, Is but
theory?
Happy family file Is a coopera-
tive affair. It does not depend on
falher or mother, or son or daugh-
ter. alone. Unless all work for the
common good, unless ali members
of the family try to be as unselfish
as possible, then there can be no
completely happy family circle. But
It is worth thinking about and
working for. What are you going to

from a report of the council ap-
pointed by the president to study
the situation: one and a half mil-
lion live on farms, almost two
million work full-time, und many
more part-time. Two and one-third
million are veterans, twelve and
one-half million get social security
benefits, more than three million
came from other countries, and
more than ten thousand are over
one hundred years old. This Is a
great tribute to good doctors, mod-
ern medicines, and our wonderful
standard of living here in America.

If we put our best foot forward
It will mean that our worst one Is
farther behind.

If we roll up our sleeves It Is a
lot harder to lose our shirt.

It may be possible to sail the sea
of life without knowing the God
who made It, but what will happen
when it comes time to seek harbor
or make a landing.

The load that was taken to the
woodshed may be spared the trip
to the courthouse later on.
Our character catj be tested by
the things we stand for. our repu-
tation by the things we fall for.

The best after dinner speech Is
said to be; “I'll pick up the check.’’

One-third of what we eat keep-
us nlive, the other two-thirds keeps

A good wish would be that we
could be alive as long as we live.

A little six-year-old asked:
Mama, how long will it be before
I know more than I do now?” This

when you call Grandmother
...YOU DON’T EXPECT TO R2AOH YUVSGUSCTU
Naturally, when you call Grandmother's p/rne, tret's the one you
expect to get, and you do. But that's nil as <v. y c:... / *. muds.
Your call must work its way through all certs of m rc-unnections,
wires, cables, switches and so forth until, finally, it picks the right
phone out of some 83 million in the U.S.
Yet, out of all the possible chances for mistakes, your call goes
where you send it . . . in town or out-of-town, to Grandmother,
wherever she is. This sort of reliability is the result of service
improvements that keep increasing the convenience and personal
value of your telephone.
