ITS AN IDEA ;
HOME DECORATIONS
TRY FIRST
Did you really try?
Ask yourself, when it is cer-
tain that you were unsuccessful,
when it is apparent that things
will not go your way. Ask your-
self if you really tried.
Whatever the job you do, do
it with real effort Don’t anticipate
failure, you may quit too soon.
You may sit down to rest when
only a small "try" will enable
you to salvage something, rather
than nothing.
E",or most home owners, it’s
always paint-up, fix-up time
However, with a set of new plas-
tic shutters that are easily in-
stalled with color-matched nails
or plastic adhesive the siory is
different. Made of tough, engi-
neering-grade plastic that is
coated with a fluoride film and
backed by cedar frames, shutters
have been shown in tests to go
better than a decade without
weathering. Maintenance means
a quick wash with the garden
hose — no need toeven wipe dry. •
Try first, before you say the
Job can’t be done. Try first, be-
fore you sit down to watch some-
go wrong, or to see a
fall
thing
dream fall into pieces.
In most every game of life,
they count the score. You win or
you lose. Bui you get back meas-
ured satisfaction for honest
effort You feel better about the
whole thing if you stuck to the
discipline of effort and got up to
"try” before you sat down to
accept defeat.
Tumblers
- There’s a good reason why
large glasses are called "tumb-
lers." The first glasses were
shaped like ice cream cones, and
a glass was held until it was
empty. When it was set down it
"tumbled” over:

Slow down, world-
this kid wants to get on”
“This is a fine little girl that got'
sidetracked from the rest of the
world. Now she’s trying to make
it back.
“There are Jots of kids like this.
Little folks that hurt all over, try-
ing to learn how to walk. Trying
to do things other kids don’t have
to learn. They’Jl make it, too, if
they don’t run out of hope.
“Hope is a job for.Easter Seals.
Special doctors and nurses. Spe-

special ways to keep these little
ones full of hope. It costs money.
