[return to column 1] Good Attitude Is (con't. from page 1, col. 5) grow shorter, that your occu- pation will grow increasingly more interesting, and that your new mental outlook on life will bring you much happiness both at home and at work. These years of high pressure war production have made all of us irritable and moody at times. Long hours of overtime and a lessening of our leisure hours have made us susceptible to periodic petty jealousies and imaginings of wrongs inflicted upon us. But there's a cure for every ill, and the best thing to do, if you're suffering from jangled nerves, is to go about your work with the idea of im- proving its quality and with a firm resolution to do the job to the very best of your ability. Probably the best possible illustration of the correct men- tal attitude a man should have toward his job is embodied in the following story: Three men were toiling side by side, lay- ing brick. A curious bystander inquired as to what they were doing. The first man replied, "I am laying brick." The second man answered, "I am earning five dollars a day." But the third man proudly ex- claimed, "I am building a cathedral." So, whatever your occupa- tion, take a deep personal in- terest in it and do it well. Bear in mind that you are not just finishing a machine part, but actually building a definite product. No matter what your work, it is creative and worthy of your best efforts. Make your motto" "Work to live" and not "Live to work!" Anyboday, providing he knows how to be amusing, has the right to talk about him- self. - Baudelaire Advice is seldom welcome; and those who want it the most always like it the least. - Ches- terfield A college education never hurt anyone who was willing to learn something afterwards.

Round these, with tendrils strong as flesh and blood, Our pastime and our happiness will grow." Ibid, Sonnet 3 "This Too Shall Pass" - The very short article by this title is written by Charles B. Roth, and appears in your "Life" magazine for August, 1945. Those who are inclined to wor- ry when misfortune, failure and disappointment strike would do well to read the encouraging and comforting philosophy set forth by Mr. Roth. Tea, Made With Saccharin - So many people are saying that they do not care for tea which has been sweetened with saccharin. We agree that the right proportions of each in- gredient must be used if the tea is to taste just right. For good tea, try the following recipe: Brew hot tea, using 3 tea bags (or 3 teasp. tea) to 1/2 gal. boiling water. Let stand until as strong as desired; tea must not be allowed to boil. When the tea is of the proper strength, remove tea bags, add- ing 5 or 6 whole grain sac- charin tablets. People who like tea extra sweet will need 6 tablets, rather than 5. Add sac- charin while tea is still hot so that tablets will dissolve quick- ly. If added after the tea has cooled, dissolve saccharin in hot water. To avoid the bitter taste so often found in tea sweetened with saccharin, place tea in the refridgerator and allow to stand uncovered for several hours before using. "A true friend is one who [article continues in middle of column 5] likes us in spite of our achieve- ments." - Anon - "Woman's Home Companion," August, 1945. Have you thought much a- bout the prefabricated houses which can be purchased com= [lete in package form and de- livered to you by truck after the war? It's an interesting idea; read about such houses in an article called "Your Solar Home Is All Wrapped Up," featured in "Popular Me- chanics," August, 1945. Et Cetera - "The dropping of 'etc.' from the language would necessitate a lot of think- ing that is not being done at present." Wellman L. France, "Saturday Evening Post," August 11, 1945.
