three periods of life should sustain certain
proportion to each other-twenty years of
growth, sixty years of maturity, twenty
years of decay This is what might be
counted upon as the ordinary course of
human life, but for the fact that we labor
under load of ancestral transgression of
physical and moral law supplemented and
intensified by our own personal delinquen .

How pleasant is the pictured Twenty
years of happy childhood and youth, sixty
years of intellectual progress and achieve

then twenty years of slow, almost uncon.
scious decay, characterized by serenity of
mind, pleasing memories and Joyous
anticipations of grander life beyond the
grave.

see it. We look with wonder upon Glad
