The Haileyburian Page 6 Thursday, January 5 1961 Across the kitchen Table By MRS. MAC MY DAILY PRAYER Author Unknown "This coming year I'd like to be a friend to everyone; I'd like to feel each day well spent at setting of the sun; I'd like to know that I have done at least one kindly deed, Before I lay me down to sleep that I have given heed-- To some one's cry for sympathy, or friendship or that I Have made the day seem brighter to some chance passer-by, And that the world is better stul in just some little way, Because I've tried to live the very best I could each day. "7'd like to be a ray of light when skies are overcast, I'd like to help someone who failed to blot out all the past, To start again despite the storms, and find the skies are blue, To know that in this good old world there's lots that's fine and true, I'd like to be the kind of person everyone will love, And make the world seem just a little more like heaven above; I'd like in all my dealings to be true and just and fair. That God will help me do these things shall be my daily prayer." This little poem, clipped from one of the weekly papers that come into the office every week, is, I think, a good one to try to follow in the year to come. These of us who have been guilty of over eating and adding several pounds to our already plump proportions, should follow the example of Raymond Cheva- lier of Rouyn, who has fasted since November 6, in an effort to cure his rheumatism and other ail- ments. Since that date, according to a story in the Rouyn-Noranda Press of December 29, he has tak- en only a small amount of water each day, until Christmas Eve, when he had a bite or two of every- thing on the table, going back to his water diet the following day. His weight has dropped from 190 to 145, but he is not yet cured of his rheumatism and other ail- ments. The diet was taken from an old book written in 1890, by a Dr. Dewey, who claimed that fast- ing would cure almost anything, and certainly rheumatism. It may be a good idea but it reminds me of a story my Dad used to tell, of a man who painted the inside of the pails he used to feed his calves, white, and then started adding more and more water to the milk, until finally, they were only getting water. However, he was rather dis- appointed with the success of his experiment, because, just as he got them used to doing without milk, '"'the blamed things up and died."' And now, regardless of whether you fast or not, may 1961 be one of the best years you have ever had, one that you can look back on and say that it was one filled with pleasant memories. Here's an idea to tuck away in your memory for next year.

Therefore, the discovery of the New York State College of For- estry that waterglass spray will prevent the spruce leaves from falling comes as welcome news to family and housewife alike. Besides preserving the foliage the waterglass spray adds to the decorative effect of the spruce by leaving a slight silver sheen to leaves. The waterglass also has been found to be a good fire re- tardant. Here we are, well started on an- other year. I wonder what we will make of it?
