My own definition does not have anything to do with what you would normally call beauty. I define it as emotional with oneself. Be kind, to yourself. My firm belief is that until you can love your- self, no one else can love you. Polly Bergen quoted by Don A. Schanche, Polly Bergen: Beauty Is Its Own Tyranny, Today's Health Safety zone THE CALCULATED RISK from the Industrial Supervisor November 1972 According to Websters Dictionary, the term "calculated risk means to engage in an undertaking after reckoning or estimating the statistical probability of success or failure. We might add that it implies acceptance of the consequences if the risk proves too great and results in tragedy. WHEN A motorist drives carelessly or takes chances in traffic, he is NOT taking a calculated risk. What he is doing is taking his family, his income and everything he possesses and betting them against his chances of behaving like a men- tal incompetent on the highway and getting away with it. Nowhere in our intelligent society do people play Russian Roulette with their lives and the lives of others as they do on the highways every day. As traffic volume increases, the changes of the loaded chamber being under the hammer increases proportionately. Taking a calculated risk is a form of gambling and the laws governing actuary tables have a way of catching up with the confirmed gambler. Regardless of the number of times you pulled off that little trick in traffic that. saved you a minute, the next time may be the last. YOU NEVER gamble alone. As you shoot through that hole in traffic, your wife, your chil-th- e dren nd everything you possess shooting through with you. 'vhen you miscalculate and lose, lose. They have no ey 1 choice. In fact, their entire ture may be riding cm the roll of dice you call making time through traffic, What is this strange tendency that makes t so difficul for thousands of sober-- minded mlults to act their age when driving? Does having control of a ton or more of ' fast moving -- 1 Chaplains corner common today? Those motorists who release their pent up emotions while behind the wheel, who turn loose their frustrations against other drivers, stop signs and traffic lights are not taking calculated risks. They are publicizing their bitterness and dissatisfaction with things in a manner that can only add to their woes. PROFESSIONAL gamblers always play the percentage game. T insure 1 Pyoff by waiting favorable odds. On the high ways of today, the odds are ALWAYS against you. Behind every wheel sits a highly unsta-al- e feet or man. His only passenger is frequently his fears, his hopes and in many cases, a gnawing and continual awareness of personal problems. There is an old saying, The road to hell is paved with good intentions. This might also be said of. the road of mary ve- hicles that end up against a brick wall or the path of an oncoming car. If you must take a calculated risk, do it in your own backyard led in your or whilc fe,y favorite easy chair. This way you both increase the possibility of success and reduce the cost of failure. IS no such thing , THERE as a calculated risk while drivs ing a car. The final and evenjt al calculation is always death or disfigurement, and always a tragedy for you and others involved. If you have been gambling behind the wheel, stop it now! The next minute you save may be your last minute on earth. wved in mjnute the w rtuJd 1 b A Junior Choir is being formed at the Post Chapel to sing during the Christmas season and thereafter.

The invocation to life must have the right starting point. Cod is more than a plus factor that a man tacks on to his life to give it completeness.
