At the time we stated that it took great cour- age for this institution to m in the very face of opposition from Maurice Duplessis.

By Ambrose Hills TODAY This morning my daughter, Kathy, grected me at the breakfast table with this question: "Daddy, is today to- morrow? If it is you've got to take me to the slides." I suppose, yesterday, that she'd caught me in a busy moment and ask- cd me to walk her over to the slides at a nearby playground, and I had put her off until to-morrow. Kathy, with her amusing question, was pointing out the old truth that tomorrow never comes. Today is the day we livel There is an old Chinese proverb I like to remember when work piles up, or when I am attacking a long writ- ing job. It reads: "The man who moved the mountain was he who be- gan carrying away the small stones!" Isn't it the rtuth? That great, long novel, GONE WITH THE WIND, was written one word at a time. All the great accomplishments of art and li- terature and life were achieved, not in single quick strokes of pen, or brush or in one great act--but in small por- tions, one upon the other. I think that is why we are urged by philosophers to live our lives one day at a time. From out all the ages, no greater wisdom has been distilled than this: that sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. No greater recipe for happiness or accomplishment has ever been written than this: that we cast off the burdens of the past and our anxiety for the future, and live now, to the best of our ability. For the past is over and done with and tomorrow never comes. Today fis the day we live . . . the only day we ever live in. It deserves all our at- tention and all the warmth and beauty and achievement we can bring to it. We are a lucky generation, brought up in Canada, where there is so much freedom of opportunity. There is no one to say: "You must keep your place." You are free, today, to strike out on new ventures, accept new res- ponsibilities, change employment, try new methods. It is true that you are 'also free to succeed or fail, according to your abilities--but that's where the thrill and challenge of life is found. Have you some new resolve, some time? I'll make a bet with you. The only day you'll ever start it will be named just like this one, as my dau- ghter, Kathy discovered.. It will be called--TODAY! "Dollars and Senge" One of the best ways to encourage good sound sleep is to have a good sound bank balance. Regular savings can make life a lot pleasanter in a hundred and one other ways. You may want the down paymentona home of your own, a TV set or a car... , perhaps the children's education is on your mind or a leisurely retirement someday. Whatever it is that you want or need, you have to learn the secret of putting something by regularly. Pay by pay you store away the money except in emergencies till with us today ? you reach your savings goal--then you start saving for the next one.
