Blessed Cheerfulness

Blessed be cheerfulness! It is promise at the dawn. ‘lt is preparative of rest when we lie down to sleep at night. It is coin current in all social experiences. It is like a breath of wholesome outdoor air in stuffy rooms. It is a claim on attention and rememnibrance. It is even an element in the divine satisfaction when we are told that, “God loveth a cheerful giver.” When the cynic and the grumbler come into the room we are glad of an excuse to leave. When some cheerful soul comes breezing in we sit up and pay attention and forget our grudges against life and fate. And in our most discontented hours, even when we take pains to conceal our own disheartenments, are we not inclined to be intolerant of other people’s gloom?

The number of children with markedly defective vision increased, however, with age. _ . Of all the children tested 63 per cent were found to be normal, 27 per cent moderately defective and only 10 per cent had poor sight. The percentage of boys with normal sight was slightly higher than the girls, but the average for those with very poor vision was the same.

Whales

The sperm whale could swallow & man. It grows to a length of 60 feet and has an enormous head, which amounts to about half its bulk and a third of its length. Its throat is broad enough to allow it to swallow a man. The sperm whale is found chiefly in southern waters, and in considerable numbers in the vicinity of New Zealand., Occasionally, though, it is met with as far north as the Aretic. One of a number of important peints that distinguish it from other whales is that it has teeth. The throat of most varieties of whales are comparatively small—not more than four or five inches across.

Colored Electric Wires
