i Ellenlb Diary

By on Inland Former’: Wife

Thi: hu been a beautiful Win- ter day, from the time motrxilng painted the sun rise in the East until the moonlight dappled the lawn with shadows and Jamie and I camp to the front verazidah to view it. It L: impossible to get the wonder of the moon through double windows.—— or so we found it this evening. We stepped out into the nippy air to admire it. Just above the hill that was edged with the d-ark of the woodlands. we Iound it. And all across the countryside. not a sound broke the silence be- neath it. Nothing moved. not even a. twig on the lawn trees. All was still and silent and so beautiful. It is not nearly so difficult to see a. star. Nose against pane, Jamie saw the first one nt dusk. high above tho house an the hill. He had been watching for Rob to return from his choring to supper at Aldﬁrlea. "There's one star lit-only one in all the sky," he pointed out. “What do you say, Jamie. if we make a wish on it?" And Jamie. like James rather skeptical of the whole affair, but a bit fascinated by the mystery of it. repeated after mo. changing the pronouns in‘ a flash to suit himself; "Star light; star bright. first star I've seat to- night: wish I may; wish I might. have tho wish I wish tonight!" Jamie did not give me any inkling as to his wish. but I know that mine was all for him.

Today I saw a new herd of cattle follow the old trail down to the ivatcring place at the mill stream. Eagerly they went dovin the field and then as willingly returned to their stalls.

Importance of Timeliness

' Right Thing at lilgltt Tlilo Yields Much Marital Happiness

i

Sayeth the Preacher: "To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the Heaven. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to get and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate."

Most of us are familiar with these wise and beautiful words. We have read them over a hun- dred times, always with the cOIISClOILSIIEBS that they proclaim a profound philosophy oi’ living, and that upon nothing else does our well-being depend more than upon our sense of tiim-lng. It. is not so m-ucti what we do as when we do it that re- luits in our happiness or misery, or our IUCCQB or failure.

'I‘his is a matter of common knowledge. The greatest dullard amongst us knows that those who achieve fame and fortune are those who are Johnny-on-the-spot and grab opportunity as it. passes their way. It is the people who put of! doing today what they plan to do on some indefinite tomorrow who miss the bus.

We all know men who are intelligent, industrious, who have de- llghtful personalities, and who should be go-gettcrs, but who can never hold down n. job or make a living, and the reason of lt ls that they just dilly-dallied by the way, instead of pudilng on to their goals. They never did anything on time. They never finished their work. They were Just always going to do things that they never did. so they lost out.

ORDERLINESS OFFERS LEISURE ’

And we know plenty of wives and mothers wtho get nervous pros- tration over their housekeeping because they never do anything on timc. Thcy have never found out that instead of being worked to death they would have plenty of leisure to gossip over the telephone and belong to clubs if they would only run their houses on schedule.

And in social matters. as well as business, promptness is the sec- ret of popularity. No guests are so welcome as those wiho arrive on the dot when they are asked to dinncr, and none arc so dreaded as those who never como on time and who keep all of the other guests waiting until they are in a bad humor, and the souffle has fallen, and the tiostcss would gladly choke thcm it she could.

Abovebll else, time can do its great and perfect work if pro- perly used -in the domestic circle where it could stop arguments and crimlnatlcns and recrimlnatlons and practically end divorce. For. as the Preacher sayeth, "there is a time to kc-op silence, and a time to speak." and there is almost nothing that. n husband and with can not say to each othcr without starting a fight if only they would pick tha- psychological mcnwnt lo (l0 it.

If every wife would take a good, hut-d lock at hcr husband wzhctt he came home at night and see If he indicated a chnttry convrrsation or dumbness. it would save many a woman from packing up her bag and going back to Mother. For there is a time for telling bad news, such as that the furnace won't work, or Aunt Sally is coming for a long visit, or that she has bought a $40 hat, and a time for not men- tioning unpleasant subjects to a man wtho has been harried all day until his nerves are raw. And surely any husband should have giunption enough to know that the time to tell a wife that he can't affoard to give her a new dress is just. alter he has told her how beau- tiful she looks in her old one.

When doing the right thing at the right time brings such grand results, what a pity we don't consider our timing more!

THE CHRISTMAS SPELL

A whisper in the house

A rumor through t.-.e room:

The children quiet as ,1 mouse,

With checks as re'l as blooms.

A litter on the stair,

A smothered laugh. and than.

That wonderful and mystic air-

When Christmas comes again.

A slipping ln at dusk

With bundles to be hid,

An odor of the courier‘ mulk

Beneath some close‘ lid.

A kltndlier grace and glow,

A softer thought and speech.

A dearer wish to grow

In closer love for eurh.

And this and these-they tell.

They are the deathless slgn—

It is the Christmas spell
