It takes crises to give courage, suffering to make sympathy, pain to make patience. It takes a singleness of purpose to reach an objective. Prochnow CHANCES Many a man who takes a chance wishes he could put it back. Anonymous PERSEVERANCE Success is failure turned inside out, the silver tint of clouds of doubt; and you never can tell how close you are; it may be near when it seems far. So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit. George Douglas A successful human being is one who is well adjusted within himself and with the world. Such a person seldom experiences undue anxiety. Edward Podolsky HABITS Every great advance by man has been the result of a break with tradition. Bernard Haldone Habits become a part of our “personal” traditions through repetition. By repetition you can change your negative habits to positive habits. Change your pose, create good habits through repetition. You must feed your mind even as you feed your body with nourishing, wholesome food. Your mind must be fed nour ishing, wholesome thoughts. The secret of better life is to cast out those old dead, un healthy thoughts. Dr. Norman V. Peale ACQUAINTANCE If a man dos not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man should keep his friendship in constant repair. SamuelJohnson If you had to live with someone just like you are for the rest of your life, would you look forward to it as a wonderful opportunity and privilege? Herbert V. Prochnow Hats off to the man who is a tittle better than his word, a little more liberal than his promise, a little larger in deeds than he is in speech. The Pepper Box SOFT PILLOWS It is well said ignorance and indifference are two soft pillows. Stanley Link LOVE It is well said he who finds not love finds nothing. Stanley Link So long as we love, we serve; so long as we are loved by others, I should say that we are almost indis pensable, and no man is useless while he has a friend. Robert L. Stevenson PRINCIPLES Principles have no real force, except when one is well-fed. Mark Twain It is easier to fight for one’s principles than to live up to them. Alfred Adler LIFE HAS TAUGHT ME Life has taught me to expect nothing but she has taught me not to expect success to be the inevitable result of my endeavors. Alan Paton HAPPINESS Happiness hinges on the capacity to believe. The happiest people are those who have mastered the art of faith. They draw constantly on this inner source of strength, for they have acquired and hold in their minds an abiding faith in their own destiny. To find the way to real happiness. Dr. Nowpan V.

Nature Study Trips Planned For Spring Five nature study field trips will be offered this spring by the North Carolina 'State Museum of Natural History. All are open to the public, and the museum is now taking registration. Three all-day family fossil-hunting trips to the Texasgulf mine at Aurora are scheduled for March 24, April 14 and May 5. A fee of $15 a person includes trans portation, to be provided by the museum, to Aurora, The minimum age for participants on this trip is 12. However, Texasgulf is revising its visitor rules, and these trips may offer the last opportunity for persons under 18 years of age to hunt for fossils at the Aurora mine. According to Jesse Perry of the museum education staff, "Most people find more fossils, such as shark teeth, whale teeth, and extinct seashells, than they can carry home.” Perry urges interested persons to register early as the fossil trips are popular and will fill up early. On April 19 a classroom session will prepare par ticipants for a field trip on .April 21 to the Sandhills to study its unique combin ation of plants, animals and topography. Cost for both sessions is $15, with trans portation to the field site provided by the museum.
