THE ELDERLY MANS INNING.

If this does nothing elsefor this country it will be
almost worth its cost when it shall have altered the ma
tonal view of the elderly man in business,
For years past the business world has clamsred for
"young blood" In almost every line gray hairs have been
Taboo though they might adom heads filled with the wis
dom of Solomon. At every turn has been met BY
youngsters out of college, in positions of the high
est honor and tustpostons that have had the attention
that only age and experience could bring to them
One potent cause for this state of affairs has been the
strenuous pace at which business has been going for the
past few decades Along with this has gone the idea that
the elderly man could not stand that forgetting that
in order to accomplish the maximum of achievement it
was not necessary for him to maintain the pace as his
skill and experience born of long practice, counted for
more than the dash and fire of his younger competitor
This state of affairs has been carried to an extreme
and the really capable men of the country have been in
numberess instances displaced by youngsters with very
little to recommend them save their "dash'
But the tide has turned. With the calling of the
younger men to the coo the managers of the business
