Once in a school, the girls started to leave kissing marks on the mirrors of the restroom Janitor（清洁工）was troubled by this because it was difficult for her to clean that. Janitor left notices on toilet walls asking the girls to stop leaving lipstick（口红）marks on mirrors but it didn't work.

Janitor went to the Headmaster and told him about the problem in the girls' restroom. Then, an announcement was made by the Headmaster for the girls to stop doing that, but the next day a lot more kisses would be planted on the mirror. It had become a bit of a game.

Seeing that the girls would not understand this in an easy way, the Headmaster thought of a creative way to solve this problem. Next day, a few girls representatives（代表）from each class were asked to meet the Headmaster at the restroom. When everyone came, the Headmaster said, "Thank you for coming. You all can see that there are several lipstick kisses on the mirrors in this restroom." Some girls smiled at each other secretly.

Then the Headmaster said, "As you all know, lipsticks are designed to stay on lips for long and that's why lipsticks are not easy to clean from mirrors. I would like you to see this and my hope is that when you see how hard to clean lipstick marks on the mirrors, you will take the responsibility to tell other girls not to do so." After this, Janitor came with a sponge（海绵块）cleaner, she put the sponge cleaner into the toilet bowl（抽水马桶）and then used that tool to clean one of the marks on the mirrors. Janitor smiled. Then, the girls left. feeling shocked and terrible.

If you’re looking for inspiration to get healthy and stay active, look no further than Edna Giordano.

Edna, who lives in Canada, has become famous for the fitness level she maintains at age 91. The mom of five, grandmother of twenty-one and great-grandmother of four still drives now. “I’ve always had a busy lifestyle because, let’s face it, with that many children, you have to be busy,” Edna said. “So, I never really thought about it. That’s just the way I live.” She said she only really began to focus on her fitness in her 60s, when she was forced to retire from her job at a local hospital. She had to face the fact that she was 60.

To keep herself busy, Edna began gardening again that she had to abandon due to her busy work. She said she also started going to the gym in her 60s, which she still does every other day. “I have to keep my feet to the fire because it’s cold in the morning in winter, and when it’s snowy or icy out there, I don’t really get enthusiastic about going outside,” she said. “But I make myself do it and mark it on the calendar. So I cannot take any shortcuts.”

Edna said she focused on walking at the gym for her cardiovascular (心血管) health and also included lots of weight lifting in her routine to maintain her bone strength. “When in the gym, I don’t try to break any records or compete with anyone else,” Edna said. “I only push myself to do better all the time, and I only compete with myself.”

When it came to her age, Edna said the people at the gym didn’t realize she’s 91. She prefers it that way, because when people do realize she’s in her 90s, they’ll surely demand to help her. “I know them well. But I don’t really want help,” said Edna. “It’s funny to say that, but I like to be independent.”
