Early Rising
Early rising is the habit of getting up from bed in
the early morning. It is a very good habit. It is essential and good for
health. This habit is of special use to a man in various ways. The man who
rises early in the morning can take some exercises or a walk in the morning
fresh air by the river side or in the open field. The morning air refreshes
both body and mind. Then the air is full of oxygen. There is a calm and serene
atmosphere everywhere. One can enjoy the beauty of nature in the early morning.
Nature smiles in the morning with colourful flowers and green leaves and the
chirping of birds is also heard in the morning. All these make them cheerful
and healthy. The beautiful gifts and colourful nature in the morning remind
everybody of the Creator. One feels like to pray to God. An early riser has
many advantages. He can start his daily work earlier. He has nothing to worry.
He is never in haste. As an early riser has enough time to work, he can earn
more and become wealthy. So the habit of early rising is the source of health,
wealth and wisdom. An English proverb says, “Early to bed and early to rise/
Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”. So everybody should practise early
rising.
Your School Magazine
A school magazine is a magazine that contains the
writings of the teachers and the students of a school. Almost every well
established school publishes a magazine every year. It gives a view of the life
of the school and reveals the creative genius of the students. It contains
poems, articles and short stories-all written by the teachers and students. The
publication of a school magazine is a very difficult task. The editor and his
assistants have to work hard to publish the magazine. The magazine committee
invites writings from students and teachers. The editorial board selects the
qualified ones for printing. The school magazine serves many useful purposes.
The most important is that it brings out the latent creative talents of the
students and thus helps them to. be great writers. A student feels proud and
happy when he finds his own writing in print. The school magazine also reflects
the academic and co-curricular activities of the school. It is a treasure
island to the students. The students can learn many things from the school
magazine. In a word, the school magazine mirrors the school.
Water Pollution
Water, an important element of the human environment,
is essential for human and plant life. It is next to air. Water can be polluted
in many ways. First of all, farmers use chemical fertilizers and insecticide in
their fields to grow more food. The rain and floods wash away some of the
chemicals. They get mixed with river water, canal water and pond water.
Secondly mills and factories pollute water by throwing the waste materials and
unsold products into the rivers and canals. Thirdly steamers, motor launches
and even sail boats can pollute water by throwing oil, food waste and human
waste into the rivers and canals. Moreover, unsanitary latrines in the
countryside standing on the banks of the rivers and canals also pollute water.
Besides the kutcha drains running into the rivers and canals cause water
pollution. Clean water is safe for use and polluted water is harmful for man.
Water pollution can be prevented in many ways. First of all, we should make the
people aware of the fact that water is next to air. It is called life. So
fertilizer, chemicals and pesticide should not be allowed to mix with river
water, canal water and pond water. Mills and factories should not throw the
waste materials and unsold products into rivers and canals. Steamers, motor
launches and even sail boats should not throw oil, food waste and human waste
into the rivers and canals. Unsanitary latrines in the countryside should not
be built on the banks of the rivers and canals. In fine awareness should be
created in the public.
A Bus Stand
A bus stand is a place where service buses stop and
start from. After a fixed time a good number of up and down buses touch at a
bus stand at different hours of the day and night. In cities there are sheds
for passengers at a bus stand. It is a temporary shelter for passengers.
Passengers wait for sometime to get on a bus. In some bus stands there are
counters for ticket. Passengers stand in a line for buying tickets. Sometimes
there is exchange of hot words if anybody breaks the line. A bus stand is a
busy place. One bus comes and the another starts for. The passengers coming
here have no time to talk or to look at others. When a bus comes or starts for,
passengers become busy in procuring a seat. They push one another to get into
it. Ladies find it too difficult to get on a bus. The drivers and conductors
are also very busy. Their shouts are heard. They try to get as many passengers
as they can. Generally a bus is always jampacked and it is more jampacked
during office hours. So very few people can get into it. A bus stand is always
noisy. There are road-side tea-stalls, small shops, hawkers selling betel leaf
and cigarette at a bus stand. Magazines and seasonal fruits are also sold here.
It is a useful place indeed.
