But, rather for tuna tely , I think, he hap pened, one day, to read the words of Car lyle: "Our main business in life is to see not what lies dimly at a distance but to do what lies clearly at hand." The words struck Osier like a revelation. He went around re peating them to himself quot ing them to his friends writ ing them in his note-books. Living one day at a time! How few of us do that. Yet how simple it is. Many of us spend our time borrowing old troubles from yesterdays which we can never call back. Others put in years of our life borrowing im aginary tribulations from tomor rows that we know nothing about. Doing what clearly lies at hand! The great English physi cian is not the only one who has found in that thought one of the secrets of a happy and successful life. "It is cool in Memory Gar den." ... Next Monday Mr. Whitlock of the Earl Whitlock Funeral Home will comment on "The Joke That Turned."
