Then there will be snow for a day or two, but then the sunshine will come again and the weather will be fine." "These old Indians seem (9) more about Nature (10) we with all our science," said the man to his friend. Then he turned to the old Indian.

   "Tell me," he said, "how do you know all that?"

The Indian answered, "I heard it on the radio."

BERNARD BERG

      Bernard Berg started as an English language teacher. He was always good (1) languages at school, so he decided to take his degree (2) French and German first. When he finished his university studies in Oxford, he began (3) in a secondary school in England. Two years later, however, he met someone (4) chance who offered him a job — teaching English to foreign students during the long summer holidays. His students were adults and he (5) the work greatly. He soon (6) he was interested in languages of different countries. Since then he (7) specialized in this work.

     First he went to Africa for two years and then he (8) a year in Spain. After that he went to Italy where he worked for three years. He hasn't been to South America (9), but he plans to go there next. He has taught men and (10) of all ages and of all nationalities. He has also learnt to get on with people of all walks of life.

WHERE THERE'S A WILL, THERE'S A WAY!

     We say all these things to balance our emotions and gain (1). But it is not as easy as it seems. So, what's the answer? We cannot go and live on a desert island. There are lots (2) things we can do of (3). We can take more exercise. We can (4) less, smoke less, we can have a well-organized rest.

But perhaps the most important thing we can do (5) to learn to relax. Stress (6) very slowly. It is made up of all the little things that make us tense, day after day, year after year. Every time we relax, every time we put our feet up, every time we have a cup of tea and a chat with an old friend we take away some of the tension that (7) stress.

     Americans worry about relaxing. They take classes to learn (8) to relax. They read books that tell them how to "take it easy". Relaxing is a multi-dollar industry in the U.S.A. So, why not master this skill and do it on your own (without paying (9) money)?

    But before you start think of what doctors say nowadays, "Too much relaxation is bad for you (10)".

INTERVIEWS, INTERVIEWS ...

      We are (3) of the sun, we men and women. We love light and life. That is why we crowd into the towns and cities, and the country (4) more and more deserted every year. In the sun­light — in the daytime when Nature is alive and (5) all around us, we like the open hill-sides and the deep woods well enough, but in the (6) when our Mother Earth has gone to sleep and left us (7), oh! the world seems so lonesome and we get frightened, like children in a (8) house. Then we sit and sob, and long for the gas-lit streets, and the sound of human voices and the answering throb of human life. We feel so helpless and so little in the (9) stillness, when the dark trees rustle in the night-wind...
