Down the stair came a girl in Air Force blue singing at the top of her voice, "Oh what a beautiful morning, Oh what a lovely day. I've got a wonderful feeling Everythings going my way." Of course, she had come in from perhaps 'Rivers Manitoba' the day before on a train and had seen the show 'Oklahoma' the night before. Perhaps she was on her way. to her home in Prince Edward Island. She went into the Mess Hall for breakfast. Soon another girl came down the stairs. She too was sing , ing, "Oh what a beautiful morning." Përhaps she was a cook on her way home from Goosdbay, Newfoundland. She had Come in by air the - day before and of course gone 40 see the show 'Oklahoma'. Today she would fly on to her home in Toronto. The girl from Bermuda said, "She thought these Canadians just haven't any feelings at all." "Now", she said, "1 know why they were so happy. It hadn't anything to do with the bitter weather. They were going home.on. their first leave after perhaps six months or more in .the R.C. A.F."

"Give me my hot water bottle any day, 1 like the warmth where 1 want it, not where the blanket dictates!" We all laughed, but thinking about it afterwards, 1 felt she had a point. There are a lot of things we have to put up with -- we simply have no choice. Isn't it good to think we can still please ourselves about some things -- even if it's only where we put the hot water bottle!
