More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

TOO LATE NOW.
When Doctor Osler said that men
OF forty years or more
Could never do the work again
They'd done in days Of yorc
And that when middle-age decay
Began TO sap their powers,
T'were best to ease them on their
way
To better worlds than ours
We sadly bounced an anvil OF
Our aged grandad's chest
And. with a faint reproachful cough,
de entered into rest.
And though il often made Us weep
To see his vacant chair
Where afternoons he used 20 sleep
The sunlight on his hair.
Though home seemed quite a differ
ent place
without the gentle cheer
Reflected in his kindly face.
For many a happy year,
That duty had been firmly met
Twas comforting 10 know
And SO we stifled our regret
And said, IT'S better So
But now We learn that forty years
Finds people In their prime
And that thereafter their careers
May well become sublime,
And that with goat-glands artful
aid
man Of seventy-two
Can very easily be- made
AS young and strong as new
With an uneasy haunting doubt
our hearts begin 10 quake.
We feel that easing srandad out.
