Vivien was an unobtrusive girl who stood daily as a school guard in a drab part of the lower hall where the frosted windows held back the light. Day after day she was at her post, expecting no favors, no praise a conscientious, shy, unassuming, duty-bound girl. One dreary day as I passed, I put my arm around her, saying, "Vivien, do you know that you're a very lovely girl?" She looked startled. Ap parently no one had ever told her. On the last day of school, as I was closing my desk, Vivien entered. "I know it's against the rules to give teachers presents," she said, "but all the grades are in, so I thought ..." I still have her gift, a little flat flower dish. It helps me remember an invaluable lesson. By a mere word, or smile, or pat on the shoulder a young life can be touched deeply so deeply that some day she may pass it on to some other Vivien at her post of duty. Eileen Hitchcock Nickel, Santa Ana, Calif. His Name Was His Bond. When I was a boy my family lived in Storm Lake, la. Some years after we'd moved I spent a Summer working in Nebraska and rode over one day to revisit Storm Lake. I had to cash a check, and when the bank teller asked if I knew anyone there I told him I was the son of David Hutton who used to live north of town. He smiled and said, "Yes, I remember your Dad. He was a fine man." Then he cashed my check. I've always felt that was the greatest compliment my dad ever received. W. Hutton, Colorado Springs, Colo. My Daybook of Blessings. Do other work ing women feel as low as I do sometimes? Same old job, day in, day out; same bus ride; no praise; at home, appliances need ing repairs every month; same old mail bills and "Mrs. Housewife" coupons. Years ago I began keeping a daybook of expenses. It was almost hopeless trying to come out ahead. Then one day I started thinking of nice things to jot down, and I've done it ever since. One day, for instance, while waiting for the bus, Mrs. Warner offered me a ride to work. My youngest daughter did the housework without being told. Next day, a letter came from my married daughter, with a snapshot of her baby. A neighbor brought over a dozen fresh eggs, and the man across the street gave me some turnip greens from his vegetable garden. Little things, perhaps, but they add up. In spite of the struggle, it makes one realize people are wonderful and so. is life. Mrs. Ruth Dorchester, Austin, Tex. or f . : f IT i i3ni "rymitmt!tX. We Pay $10 for Your Letters.
