I see though that some of the people I wrote about took my ad vice and started doing something! .about their different situations. If C have helped someone by being frank, I am very gtad.

I have a sister who is six and I am very, very lonesome. I like school very much, but do not have many friends' The children in my class laugh at me because I often feel bad or sick and cannot do my work. Last week they laughed be cause I was crying at school. I was very upset about my mother and her operation. Also, I felt sick and was afraid I would die. I fear dying and don’t know what to do. Do you think the girls should laugh at me? —Julie, Florida Dear Julie: You are very young to have such big problems. This is the time when you should be having a lot of fun and be enjoying life. I know you love your mother very much and naturally are worried because she is ill, but you must have faith in God and believe that He will do only what is right for you. You • must also believe that the doctors at the hospital are very good and are doing everything to help your j mother get well. You can help by being very good so she will not have added worries. If you feel bad often, get your father to take you to see a doctor. Talk to him frankly and after his thorough examination, you will know what to do, to improve your health. - . • | One thing, Julie: You will findj that children can be very cruel. I They tease often when they see that it bothers you. Try to show them that their teasing and laugh ing does not bother you 'and they will stop. To have more friends, why not join 'the YWCA. Keep j i yourself busy, start a hobby, and j even try entertaining your sister sometimes, even though she is much younger. Remember, also, that we fear the things we do not know or un derstand. Try to learn all you can about the things you fear, and it will help you to overcome those fears. The best of everything to y°u. E. B.

Patterson Lodge 1007 S. 7th Avenue FRIDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1954 Share Your Wisdom By DR. THOMAS R. GAINES NEW YORK, (Global) Most people want to live bravely, hon estly, and successfully. No normal persons starts out to make a fail ure of this life. But envy, jealousy and mistrust are allowed to mani fest in the mind, and future shad ows are being created. Goodwill is comparable to sunlight. It is warming and rejuvenating. Hate is always chilling and destructive for all concerned. Good will is the fore-runner of an improved per sonality and a possible richer measj> ure of life values. We are here to live life—to live it successfully, we must clothe our thoughts and ac tivities in the mantle of forgive ness, understanding and infinite love.
