One of the things which helps to

true In this instance. By exercising

have, the more power for happiness is
given to us. We are given perceptions,

great or small which tend to increase
Joy. Since happiness cannot exist
when detrimental to others. not true
Eappiness, the pleasure in it Is to be
treasured.
It is sald of some people that they
have the “gift of happiness” or the
“gift of enjoyment” This is the
result of having made the most of
whatever capacity they had, It is well
to remember that this same thing is
true of unwelcome ag welcome ghings,
We must stem whatever capacity for
unpleasant things lies within us, if we
would draw unto us gifts of happiness,
We must stress the good, we must
note, daily, all, even the small things
which make for joy.

Will Our Civilization
Be Destroyed?
By
LEONARD A. BARRETT
At a recent clinleal congress of the
American College of Surgeons, Dr.
Charles H. Mayo
of Rochester
Minn., sald, “The
war of the future
will be of
swift attack from
the alr, Planes
will drop explo-
sives, gas and dis
ease germs which
will be rained on
centers of civilian
population. This is
8 machine age and
wars hereafter will
waged by
nical men, We are
spending a quarter of a billion dollars
for warships which will be obsolete in
ten years”
Is Doctor Mayo's statement correct?
It certainly is, If the new social order,
now In the making, continues to be
entirely Influenced by size, bulk and
monetary power. The present clviliza-
tion has been large developed upon
the mistaken idea that quantity Is in-
dicative of prosperity. lon

of progress In terms of statistics, and
success is measured by the balance
sheet at the end of the year.
No sane person would venture the
suggestion that we return to a condi
tion of living prior to the time we
possessed many of the comforts of our
modern age. Nor would any person
suggest that less money be spent on
the development of the arts and sci-
ences, Perhaps we need more of such
cultural advantages, The permanence
of our civilization, however, does not
depend upon these possessions for the
obvious reason that they all ean be
destroyed In the twinkling of an eye.
In this respect again Doctor Mayo is
right,
What guarantee have we then
agaiust the destruction of our elviliza-
tion? The rise and fall of nations
attest the truth of the statement, A
man's life consisteth not In the
abundance of the things which he pos-
sesseth,” “If 90 per cent of reform is
purely educative and the rest emo
tional and legislative,” then is It not
imperative that all forms of organized
Christianity and all educational institu.
tions teach the necessity of enltivating
the gpiritual values of life? Only when
the spiritual transcends the material
will our civilization be safe from those
