"It is easy enough to look pleasant while life flows along as a song, but the woman worth while is the one who can smile,” when she takes her husband along. Life is a sifting process. The wise woman learns to be a sieve. She lets all the little foolish selves with their unkind words and selfish acts run through. She sifts out the Great Selves with their beautiful smiles, loving deeds and wise words. The Baptist congregation will give a reception Friday evening at the church for their new pastor, the Rev. F.

An island is defined as being a body of land entirely surrounded by water. Paw Paw, W.

A Tennessee woman tells as follows about magical reading as a device for interesting little children: "Have you ever tried to amuse and keep quiet a crowd of lively children by reading aloud to them? An easy way to excite their interest is to substitute the names of the children themselves for those of characters in the story. This simple change acts like magic.”
