PREPARE EARLY FOR OLD AGE
Happiness in the Inevitable
Declining Years.

The most inevitable-and one OF the
easiest-of the things we do is to
grow old. Yet what a difference there
is In the way different people do it!
You probably know, for instance,
some little old lady who, although she
may not be beautiful or brilliant. is
Just "nice"-which is apt to mean
that, instead of bossing or scOlding,
she tries not to be troublesome or un-
reasonable to those around her. Or.
rather, she does not have to try, for it
is characteristic Of elderly human be-
ings that they seldom try very hard
to form new habits, says a writer In
the Pendleton East Oregonian. Youth
is the period of endeavor. and old
age of results. This is the reason
for the futility Of young folks dis
pleasures at their parents "old fash
toned" ideas. Such ideas are fixed ;
they will not change.
Yet not all elderly people are age
bound In their thoughts; many can
be tolerant of innovations and few
can even adopt them. Such flexi-
BILE condition of the elderly mind Is,
like the rigid, intolerant sort, a prod
uct of earlier life and habits; it is
not likely to indicate any particular
good or evil trait in the person pos
sessing it.
If the young man or woman who
feels impatient at the old folks no.
tons will cease to shrug shoulder
and exclaim, 81 hope I'm not like that
when I'm old" and will turn his at
tentiOn to the younger generation
starting with himself, he is likely tt
do much for human progress. Wher
he himself has reached the age OF
fixed ideas his character will depend
on his previous habits of mind; il ht
has kept himself free from prejudice
and cocksureness and has been al
ways willing to learn better ways o.
thinking and doing. he will be likel,
to remain correspondingly more n
tionai with advancing years. and Will
in truth, not be like that" when h
II old.
