But those who have gone forth in the world from its area, are confident there is no place in the world just like it. Every town or community, however small, has had some memorable days behind it, and some of these the Review is trying to give. There may be many more, but the ones we select have been jotted down merely from memory. It would be be well if more of these "standâ€"out" days were kept in touch with present days, if for nothing else than jog our memory as to the part citizens now dead and gone in many instances, had in the life of Durham.

It opâ€" ened with a mixedâ€"up welcome and a variety of recitations, drills and diaâ€" logues by the children, which was â€" fullowed by a humorous dialogue, ‘Christmas Greetings‘.

He wa:s form:er pre.ssing .torward to his goal. Yet it was he also who wrote: "For I have learned in whatâ€" soever state I am, therewith to be content." Work is one big ingredient. Simâ€" ple tastesâ€"the power of finding great satisfaction in little things is another. St. Paul, for instance, did a goodâ€"sized job and left a shining record. It is strange that contentment is not more widespread, considering how very common and close at hand are the elements that go ‘nto it. The habit of contentment is formâ€" ed, not from without, but from within Compared with the blessings we have in common the few blessings which he has and I have not are inâ€" significant. The world is full of pleasant sights and sounds and smells, and his ears and eyes do not bring him any sensation a particle more sweet than mine bring to me. . He can own more of this world‘s surface than I. But try as he may, he cannot hreathe any more of its air: he cannot absorb any more of its sunshine; he cannot bribe the ocean to give him any more invigorating bath; nor the evening stars to shine any brighter over his estate.
