Outlined here are at least five fundamentals necessary for happiness.- Your general outlook up on life is dependent upon the amount of happiness you experience. You should begin early in your school life to develop a proper basis for happiness, but it is never too late to start ; many adults could use the same basis. The first fundamental of happiness is a success ful vocational life, not necessarily as measured in dollars and cents, but in the sense of something worthwhile accomplished. A failing business or ca reer involves financial worries and uncertainities, but if you are accomplishing something toward a def inite goal you find greater satisfaction and happi ness. You have only to observe the students around you to learn that it is those doing the best work who are the most satisfied. A second fundamental of happiness is a faith in the world about you. It is very difficult to be skep tical and critical and be happy. The skeptic is no more able to polve the things he doubts and criticizes than the person who does not understand but who does accept things as they are and tries to adjust his life accordingly. Therefore, do not criticize and complain without trying to improve things which displease you at the same time. The third fundamental of happiness is friends. You like to talk with friends, you enjoy your leisure time with friends, you exchange ideas with friends, you do things with friends, and you work with friends. These associations are pleasing to you and you naturally find much happiness in them. You can cultivate friends by being courteous, loyal, trust ing and of clean mind. These things make up your attitude. If you improve your attitude you will im prove your friendships. Health is the fourth fundamental. Young people should learn to conserve their health by proper food, plenty of sleep, and clean habits. Good health enables you to do your work, to associate freely with others ; it enables you to enjoy your hobbies, and it enables you to feel that you are like all others and not singled out with some special burden to carry. Correct thinking is the fifth fundamental of happiness. All of us indulge in positive or negative thinking. Positive thinking is creative, constructive, and upbuilding, while negative thinking is destruct ive and harmful. Positive thinking reflects itself in courage, confidence, and faith. This is the thinking of all active worthwhile men. Negative thinking re flects itself in doubt, fear, and worry. How many times have you heard people gossip about your school or about individuals you knew, and all the time you knew that the gossip was not true or par tially true? This is negative and destructive think ing, it is degrading and harmful. Your thinking will influence your entire outlook upon life. If you think about the unknown results of every possibility, you will be in continual difficulty, You will reduce your possibilities of success because of self-pity, nervousness, and pessimism. On the oth er hand, if you think about the facts as they are, and the possible success which you may have through your own efforts, you will be more optimistic, ener getic and happy. Discipline your thoughts. If you are a negative thinker, STOP being one. You have all, no doubt, heard the song, "Accentuate the Positive;" in other words, be a positive thinker and doer! STANLEY C. JOBE, . Principal The Office Desk It's a Fo-o-ord and it belongs to Phil Rodenmayer. Phils car is a '50 Ford sedan with a '51 stock motor with duel headers. It has electric doors and trunk. The trunk is leaded in and a Pontiac grill and trenched headlights have been installed. As of now it has four inch lowering blocks on it. Recently he has put in baby blue and white seat covers with a blue and white interior. This summer he plans to do more work on it.' Among the things he wants to do is to do mure body work on it and to paint it baby blue. He also wants to redo the panels on the inside also. Well, good luck on your little project, Phil. E.P.- ELVIS, my hero, my sun. My bright star, Though others may mock you, I know what you are. And I love your pink cars, And the clothes that you wear, The sound of your voice, And your long greasy hair. I shriek when you shimmy, Or just scratch and wiggle, I die when you wink. And just flip when you jiggle. But your singing, dear ELVIS, Comes floating to me, Like an ancient fog horn, On a wild roaring sea. I'll send you a teddy bear, All of your cwn, To sleep v,th, to talk to. When you are alone, The army can't have you, I won't let you go, 'Cc.use I wt,nt you, I need you. And I love you so. Though adults criticize you, , I still shout your praise, 'Cause a million teenagers, jusl love your odd ways. All this I've been saying, Is not actually true, 'Cause I really can't stand him at all, Can you? Margaret Hull PATRONIZE THOSE WHO PATRONIZE US VISIT OUR NEW FOUNTAIN . . .
