Discipline Is the key to success in most fields, especially 80 in sports. A great deal of bard work and a denlal of nothingness often heralds success in many areas of life. An important part of a youth's life, discipline is essential. Mlitary sehools and private sehools are very demanding in this area and the resuits are of- ten spectacular. This training carriers through a lifetime and opens doors ail over the world. Our alarm over the guils flying about is growing day by day. The numbers of them are growing at a great rate. Last year it seemed to begin but now it is I thlnk almost out of control.

This mornlng the air la heavy and the skies gray whlle the gulis Mr and screech as they cip low over the water and the shores. If we cannot flnd a solution soon It wIl be doubly bard ln a year's tîme. It seems ail we can hope for is a control by nature whlch generally bappens when anythlng becomes too, prollflc. Disese or some sucb thlng wlil cut numbers drastically at certain times. Maybe this is ail we can hope for. I'm told tbat heavy storms take their toil and theguils dite often of heart attacks. When July cornes rny interest in gardening wanes. The freshness of spring bas left and signs of autumn and the barvest are in evidence especially 80 this year with s0 littie ramn in the past month. When autumn actually cornes that is another story because we bave a whole new scene to enjoy. Wbat a blessed relief it bas been for the past week to bave the sirens at the steel plant sUlent.
