THERE’S ALWAYS SOMEONE!
When most the mind is weary, when j most the heart is sad, its wonderful i what cortifort lies in making someone glad! A counsel of perfection? Maybe! . . . And yet ’tis true there’s j always someone in the world more badly off than you! To help to lift a burden that is bigger than your own, is better than to sit and mope, and nurse your woes alone. You’d get a new perspective on the problems that are yours if now and then you took a peep inside your neighbours’ doors! There’s always someone down and out whom your sad heart can hail! It i may be yours to speak the word that ' turns Hope’s trembling scale. For j just by sharing suffering too great to ; bear alone, we learn to soothe each* others’ hurts, and so forget our own.

During a trial flight lasting ten minutes she lay strapped to the stretcher and when she arrived back on land she was unstrapped and released amid loud cheering from the i assembled onlookers.
