Work Against Time or With Time BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. has its , “working wlth ume ) Each plan has its advantages for the busy person. “Working against time" WORKING WITH TIME IS NOT HECTIC. means that a person is running a race | with time. A definite limit is set in ‘which a job must be completed, or in | which a person is seeing if a amount of work can be Iceomplishtfi' trated effort has to go int® ;ork of this sort, for time ticks away th unceasing ty. Pressure is felt in the atmosphere ‘when one is working against time. No cbject weighs upon the worker. The prassure is enli.rely mental, but none the less existent. “Working against time" often spells success, for unless the task set before one can be finishe within definite time limits it may be of | no avail. A mother knows what it means to rush with sewing that must be done before a set date, a vacation trip, etc. She is against time.

The worker looks ahead and sees when special tasks should be accom- plished to insure the best possible re- sults and then sets about doing the jobs. Except in emergency cases, “working with time” prevents the necessity of “working against time.” It is important for the worker to be able to accomplish things when not under pressure if she is to “work with time.” ~ There are persons who are so constituted that it is only under the spur of necessity that they do their best work. Apparently they have to “work | against time.” Those who can plan their own time—that is, those who are not working under orders or during specified hours—have the privilege of “working with time.” Office workers | may not, although they have at cer- tain times to “work against time.” The freelance worker is wise to work with time rather than against it. (Copyright, 1931) A Sermon for Today BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. Need for Watchfulness. “Be ye therefore sober, and watch,"— I Pet., iv.7. If there is any one thing the Bible emphasizes more than another as a requisite to pure and noble life, it is the necessity for constant watchfulness. | We cannot foll to see its importance if |we consider what sort of a world this is and what sort of creatures we are. In many respects this world we have broken into is a wonderful world, and its people & wonderful people. And yet we find ourselves in an environment that is & great deal fuller of induce- ments to do wrong than of inducements to do. right. We meet many circum- stances in which it seems far easier to follow the worse than to follow the better course. Besides this, we are sur- rounded with many bad things that have a deceptive appearance of pleas- ure. And so, unless one has learned to | watch his every step he will go wrong, without a doubt. There are more things round about us to tempt us downward than things to draw us upward, and our only security is constant watchful- ness. ‘The same leszon is enforced upon us when we consider the sort of creatures we are. Here we are in a world full of evil, and when we look into our hearts and fleshly nature we find in ourselves all manner of passions and desires that respond most readily to the world's evil nticements. We all have in our na- tures something that can be appealed to by any temptation the world can produce. “Let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” None of us can afford to be careless with himself, no matter how strong and se- cure he thinks himself to be. There |are strong passions in us all, deeply rooted in the flesh, that must be care- mui' guarded and kept under control. not only in the world that we ]m.fl. with deceptions; the Bible de- scribes the heart as being “deceitful above all things.” Therefore, “keep thy | heart with all diligence.” There are more people who go wrong from lack of watchfulness than from wiliful intention. Indeed, it may be doubted whether any man ever delib- erately chooses evil. It is by drifting |along carelessly and unguardedly that |men get into wrong paths and become “Be ye therefore sober, and " Remember, as George Herbert says: ‘Wh’!; keeps no guard upon himself is Andh:ou to nothing at the next great THAT REMINDS ME—I'M TRYING A NEW LAUNDRY SOAP TODAY.

C, THURSDAY, APRIL DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX DIAR MISS DIX—I am 26. Happily married, with one child. I take oxeennm care nl my house, my husband and baby, but still have time on my hands and I want to accomplish something dur- But wh.lt? 1 don't make friends easily and have always Don't know how to get along with them. L.C. plenty of ing my life. been afraid of people socially. ‘What would you advise? Answer—I think a woman who is a good wife and mother needn't worry about doing something worth while with her life. She is filling the career for which God created her and doing the most important work that any woman ever sets her hand to. But you are quite right in thinking that a woman should not sub- merge herself entirely in domesticity and that she should have other interests outside of the home and that in particular she should look for- ward to the coming of age. I consider it just as important for us to lay up some resources within ourselves for the time when we will no Jonger be able to do the things that we do when we are young or have the interests we have when we are young as it is to lay up some money for the time when we will be too old to work. It is because so many women do not do this that they are so lonely in their old age when all of their contemporaries and friends are gone, and it is because so many women have no interest except in their children that they become parasites on their children when they are old. No other thing takes the place of friends in life, and T earnestly advise you to overcome your anti-social feeling. Join two or three good women's clubs and attend their meetings. That will rub the shyness off you and among the women you thus meet you wili be sure to find some who are congenial. Realize that the more you indulge your fear of people the more it will grow on you and the harder it will be for you to break away from it. A woman needs friends for herself and she needs to make friends for her husband's sake and especially for her child's. In a little while your child will be big enough to be going around and then its social position will depend on the friends you have made for it DOROTHY DIX.

One of the girls in our office makes it a practice to wait for the boss in order to force him to take her home.” What is your opinion of her? HELEN.
