Why Not Change?
By Ruth Taylor
The other duy u man I've
known u long time was urging
me to cut my hair. 1 suid, "Oh, no.
I wouldn't look like me.” He re­
pin'd with some heat: “ Nonsense,
Ruth, the trouble w ith you is
you've looked at your own face
the way it is too long!"
You know, there’s a lot of
horse sense in that remark. We’­
re afraid of change even our
expression for fear we won’t be
recognizable to ourselves. What
if we aren’t? There’s always room
for improvement.
We are the same wuy about
our ideas. Just because an idea
was right once, doesn’t mean it is
ulways going to be right. Circum­
stances alter, and our ideas must
keep pace with them. If we keep
to the right ideals, we can afford
to change ideas - our methods for
bringing into being our ideals.

ability from ull of us. The end of
