Conquerlng Boredom Happiness is not a picture which can be painted with a few bold, sweeping strokes. It is, rather, a deiicately wrought mosaic whose intricate pattern is composed of many small pleasures and inter- ests. The people who get real joy out of living are those who contin- ually manufacture little harmon- ious pieces of expenience. Every bonedom and disiike is the raw matenial of pleasure. The only manufacturing equipment you need is the ever-neady desire which is yours for the thinkîng. -William Moulton Marston. A thing of beauty may be a jaw fonever.
