Easier TO Lean Than to LIT.


at is strange fact that the most
buoyant young person cannot Offset
the depressing tendency of a single
older one. How much less, then,
can one young person counterbalance
two elders? 1t is about all two
youthful persons can do to overcome
the downward trend of one old man
or woman. One might think the
younger would have the stronger in
fuence, but such. unfortunately, is
not the case. It is more difficult to
lift than to bear down. One young
couple of my acquaintance has three
elderly persons under its roof. The
result is that both man and wife
in manner, habit and thought are a
full decade older than their years.
