More Competition Pictures

A further batch of Competi- tion photographs will appear in to-morrow's issue of the Tele- raph Pictorial Supplement. Including some of marked artistic merit.

In addition, there will be other interesting pictures, In- cluding Church of Christ in China delegates at a visit to the grave of Dr. Robertson Morrison In Macao, and a bridal group at the wedding of Mr. Henry Wing and Miss Josephine Chan,

Portraits of successful, can-` didates in the Trinity College of Music. examinations will also appear.

It were wise to draw the obvious moral-to make the most of the substantial present, gratefully en- joying the simple pleasures which llo to our hand. If we ignore.the. present, and concentrate wholly on the future, the chances are that we shall miss the happiness which is close by, and come no nearer the happiness which hangs tantalising- ly ahead.

Through the years I have learnt that I am richer in peace of mind, not when I have striven to increase my possessions, but when I have limit- ed my desires, Certainly a bunch of Cornish violets has proved more gladsome sight for me than any elaborate orchids plucked from a nobleman's conservatory.

Stop by step I have come to this philosophy of life (against which admittedly, being human, I some times transgress)-to be thankful for small mercies, fur in them the real seeds of happiness are con- tained. Whatever one's lot, I am convinced, these small mercies are) not withheld,
