WHY GIVE UP I have received a very pitiful letter from a woman out She has had a hard time all her fife. She has raised three children, who do nothing for her support. When her husband died he was found to have been improvident and left her no fiioney. She has gone stone deaf. On top of this she has just had a very serious operation in a hospital , She can see no way oat. Nothing presenU itself to her but continoed suffering, privation and dependence. She b about ready to give up. What should she do? Why give op? . * Of course it U difficult for any one in comparative health and well being to give advice to sufferers. One b always open to the bn potation of being supercilious. It is always easy for the philosopher to bear the tooth ache patiently when some one ebe has it At the same time, and at the risk of being called hard names, I repeal the question, "Why give up?" Suppose you do give up. Win Hfe be any easier to bear? It U just as well to look squarely at the alternative. When some one told Tolstoy that many kind, virtuous, people had a very bard time, he replied: “What about those that are unkind, not virtuous and dishonest? Look about you. Do the people like that whom you know have any easier time?" The Church in the Middle Ages is often accused of being very cruel But what about the people outside of the Church. Were they any less cruel ? Life may be hard at best, but it is easier and pleasanter all around If we keep a stout heart and do the best we can under the circumstances. Whatever may be in store for this woman, whatever deprivation and suffering, we can be sure that she will get along better if she meets her fate bravely and smilingly and does not give way to despair. Whatever happens to us we are better off if we battle on and keep our chin up. Despair is nothing but a bog. a quicksand, that engulfs the soul It leaves us no spirit with which to fight. When a Persian soldier told a Lacedemonian that in battle the Persian arrows would be so thick they would darken the sky, "then," »t»d the demon iso, “we will fight in the •hade."

The distance to Rome was about 80 miles and fellow Christians came out\to meet Paul when he reached the Market of Appius, about 43 miles from the city. Still others were at the Three Taverns and when -the voyager saw them "He thanked God and took courage.’’ Surely the centurion in charge gave a good account, of the conduct of his prisoner since leaving Caesarea. The captain could verify much and gave full credit to Paul’s part in caring for all on board.

Telephone service, a public trust THE widespread ownership of the Bell Telephone SyRem places an obligation on its management to guard the savings of hs hundreds of thousands of ftockholdm. Its responsibility for so huge a pan of the country's telephone service imposes an obligation that the service •ball always be adequate, dependable and satisfactory to the user. The only sound policy that will meet these obliga tions is to continue to furnish the beR possible service at the IflweJt coJt cooaiftent with financial safety. There is then in the Beil SyRem no incentive to earn speculative or large profits. Earnings muR be sufficient to assure the beR possible service and the financial integrity of the business. Anything in excess of these requirements goes toward extending the service or keeping down the fares. This is fundamental in the policy of the company. The Bell SyRexn's ideal is the same as that of the public it serves—the moR telephone service and the beR, at the IcaR coR to the user. It accepts its responsibility lor a fMboo-widc telephone service as a public tn*R.
