ERICH BRANDEIS This is a little story about one of the finest women I ever met and from Whom I learned a great deal about living, although, I am ashamed to confess, I never applied the lessons to my own life. Her name was simply Clara. I never did know her last name. She came from New York’s Harlem, and she worked for us as a maid for several years. Then we moved too far away for her to go home to her son and daughter-in-law and granddaughter on her days off, and so she had to leave us. Clara always sort of frightened me. She was gaunt. She was very tall and very thin. And she was very good. She was so good, indeed, that I never liked her very much. It always seemed to me that she could see right through all my little pretenses and foibles, and nobody' likes to be understood

too well.

She idolized my wife, and my

wife thought the world of her.

Clara was deeply religious.

Religion to her was not Just something to be gone through on a Sunday but something to be

lived seven days a week. Life to her wan a gift of Gold

to be cherished as a priceless

g.ft ought to be cherished. The reason Ian writing this

today is that I just cleaned a lot of long accumulated stuff out of my filing cabinet. Among the things to be discarded was a calendar Clara left when she

moved back to New York. It Is a 1945 calendar with a

lot of proverbs and sayings on f it. I would like to have you read j a few of them which Clara marked as a guide in her * own

daily life:

“Renew your courage daily. We are workers together with

| God”- St. 'Paul.

‘‘You can't hold another fellow down in the ditch, unless you stay down there with him." — Booker T. Washington. "Trust in God and DO something.”- Mary Lyons.

zone state is scheduled to be established in the Soviet sector of Berlin as soon as the Communists have completed formation of their government, expected next week. ANOTHER STRIKE? employes, has taken the same position as that of U. S. Steel Corp. and other big steel companies — that any pension and insurance plan must include employe contributions. However, .Westinghouse and the U-E were continuing to negotiate. GOOD OLD DAYS clear up their land. Afterward they moved to where Mathew Drew lives, and set up slabs by the side of a log shelter unTil they could build another cabin. People soon began to pour in like pigeons after mast. The speaker said he was then familar with all that happened ami with all the people around this part of the county. He described their different modes of making bread from flour ground in the old fashioned mills which have been so often described. After awhile a Mr. Trotter built a mill where Henry’s mill now stands and ill the settlers felt grateful that they could get corn meal many a family had lived entirely without bread living for the most part on potatoes, squash md wild game.'’ (To be con-

tinued.)
