A HAPPY HOME . A child should always be taken seriously. Jesus took time to lay his hands on the heats of smail children, commend them to God and challenge them for the future. He even said that to small children belonged the Kingdom of God. Expecting and urging children toward better ways and better things is the duty of every adult. Putting something fine into the life of a child might not take much time but it often has permanent value. Many an adult now remembers the kindness of some adult when he was a child and expressions of faith in him which has greatly influenced his life. This does not mean that children's wrongs are not to be mentioned or corrected, but it dqes mean that children should be reasoned with in a kindly spirit and made to know that God has a better way for them.

is not entirely a time of life; it is a state of mind. It is not wholly a matter of ripe cheeks, red lips, or supple knees. It is a temper of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions, a freshness of the deep springs of life. It means a tempermental predominance of courage over timidity, of an appetite for adventure over love of ease. “Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years People grow old only by deserting their ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. Worry, doubt, selfdistrust. fear and despair ... these are the long, long years thdT bow the head and turn the growing spirit back to dust. “Whatever your years, there is in every being’s heart the love of wonder, the undaunted challenge of events, the unfailing childlike appetite for ‘what next,’ and the joy and game of hfe. “You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair. In the central place of your heart, there is a recording chamber; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, and courage, so long you are young. When the wires are all down, and your heart is covered with the snow of pessimism and ice of cynicism, then—and then only—are you grown old.” —Douglas McArthur
