IEURYBODYS BUSINESS fr~44*( Beware of boredom, Many people spoil their chances for success in their work, blight a happy homne life and even harm their health -because they allow thcmselves to be bored. So if you find you are losing your zest for living, take that as a warning signal. Contrary to what you may think, boredom is not an unfortunate state of mind due to circumstances beyond your control. It is your fasult. But within you lies the power to change. Try reading new books and different magazines. Go te work by a different route now and again. Dress in your best clothes more often. Bring home some unexpecied treats. Deyelop new interests and hobbies. Above ail, take more inter. est in other people. Speak to them differently, enthusiasti. cally. And lend a helping band wherever you can. You'll soon wonder how you could ever have found life duli! And you'll find that your corner of the world is a mighty interesting place after ail! It inay also pay you to take a new interest in your life insurance programi from time to time. Your family's needs keep changing. So it's wise to keep reviewing your policies to see if they meet your changing requirements.

A Kemloops lewyer who fought oversees with the Sea!orth High- landers is the Progressive Con- servative member for Kamloops Riding, Britisý Columbia. He is Edmund Davîè Fulton, 31-year- old son o! a 'notable Kamloops faemily. Graduating fromn the Universi- ty o!

Therefore, it is elweys good business to plow back same of the profits of toay ta increase the stability of tomorrow. I remember two farmers back home. One robbed his farm ta get dollars, he Put back as littie as possible. TIfe farma grew poor- cm year by yer. He had, as a neighbour, a good farmer. He loved the sol. 1He treated it wcll.
