His weary body, and to strengt-
hen His love and faith’ in hu-
manity for the tremendous’ task
for which He had come to Earth.

story, Mrs. McAlister brought
amen to her class, the abiding
confidence this little family of
long ago felt for Jesus, as well

“Local response to our new
Kingdom Hall has been most
gratifying and is very much
appreciated”, said Tylich.

One of the keys to leading a
healthy — and a long — life is a
real, annual vacation.
What is a vacation? Depending

(CPa of view, it

Still, when finances or unavoid-
able conditions make a vacation
away from home impossible,
women in the know can arrange
an altogether delightful vacation
right at homt!
There are two basic musts for
home vacations: a complete
change of routine and a tempo-
rary respite from responsibility.
There are all sorts of ways to
change your routine. First, vary
your eating habits. Have a late
brunch and an early gourmet
supper. Or, enjoy a meal a day at
a restaurant and have fun dis-
covering a different place each
day.
Take up something entirely
new during your vacation. Learn
how to play tennis or golf or be-
gin studying French. And, you’ll
have all the time in the world for
that nearby summer theater, gut
door concerts and sporting egents
that you ordinarily just read
about in the newspaper.
To lighten your responsibili-
ties, hire temporary help to cook,
clean, baby-sit and cut the grass.
Export the small-fry to kind
grandparents or make reciprocal
agreements with good friends. If
you’re really brave, you won’t
even answer the telephone I
A backyard vacation will make
you feel so refreshed and healthy
that you’ll want to keep up the
system on all the lovely summer
and Indian summer weekends to
follow.
The meeting opened by the
reading of the poem, “It Shows
in Your Face.”
