,Mias Catherine Dobbin, a tcficher
at Enterprise, was ft Lft Grande vis
itor during the past weekend.
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall
strengthen thine heart; wait, I say, on the Lord. Psalm
27: 14.
A SMILK THAT HELPS
There are a lot of us who are perhaps not particularly
enthusiastic over, some of the moves and actions of the chief
administrator and his advisors at Washington. None of us
has yet ta douht his sincerity, however, in those moves.
But there is one thing about him that cannot but be ad
mired by all, and that is his contagious smile. Though
heckled and beset upon all sides as perhaps no president be
fore, there is .not iv picture or likenoss that we see of him
that does not carry lines of brightness and happiness. The
smile continually breaks through, often into a hearty laugh.
Visitors calling upon him tell of his quick turning from seri
ous to hapiiy moment and tC leaving him with a smile.
One cannot help but imagine a Mussolini, a Hitler or a
Stalin in the same situation; A photograph or movie of
any of those dignitaries with even a pleasant look on his
face would be worth f ranting as a rarity.
At that our president, with hU Jmppy expression, only typifies tho aver
age Amerlcnn. The salvation of this country Ilea in Its ability to tnke a
licking wltli a smile. PerhapB the Juliana, the Germ una and the Russians
have suffered consequences fur worse than we and have reason to be more
sombre aa nations. And perhaps thy have less reason for future outlook
of happiness with the lrnderehlp and government that Is theirs.
There ts still misery aplenty In this country too, mid Uin of us who
nro more fortunate than the rest should keep It In mind. At the same
time, however, there Is no need to relinquish that sense Of humor which
distinguishes lis .from other peoples, and, other nations. It Is our saving
grace. If. prevents revolution and turmoil. It helps give us a point of
view that aids a cool and sane attitude. .-
It Is a philosophy of brightness and humor that, If we had a Hitler type
In our leadership wo would long af;o have laughed him down.

Children to Have
Easter Egg Hunt
MT. CARMEL At a brief busi
ness meeting preceding the regular
soclul evening-of the Mt. Carmel P.
T. A. last Friday at the school house,
It was decided to entertain the chil
dren of the district with an Easter
ck hunt. This would be held the
Saturday before Easter.
At Friday evening's meeting, the
following program was rendered: Pi
ano' solo by Mrs. Dewey Maxwell;
readings by Mrs. W. O. Christensen;
threq selections. "Minuet In G," "The
Young Bugler" and "Playtime," by
the rhythm band; vocal solos, "Nea
politan Nights," and "Irish Eyes Are
Smiling," by Hallie Oarues.
The members of tho refreshment
committee, all men, showed that they
were not entirely unfamiliar with the
arts of the housewife, at least they
succeeded In serving n very delicious
lunch.
This will be the last social, 'evening
in this P. T. A. year which ends
March 31.
"The Mt. Carmel P, T. A. was not
organized until last Sept. 29, 1933.
which makes this denization only
about six months old." reports Por
tia Westcnskow. - "However, we feel
tliat we have accomplished a great
deal in this short time. It has brought
the members of tho community to
gether in a social capacity which they
have hitherto not enjoyed. One of the
outstanding accompU-jhments so far
was the hot lunches which were
served to tho school children through
Juuuary. February and half of March.
All members have shown a fine spirit
of co-operation. We are onh desirous
that next year will be as successful.
We feel sure tliat tt will be."
