highest form of success which
comes. not to the man who de-
sires more easy peace, but to the
man who does not shrink from
danger. from hardship, or from
bitter toll and who, out of these,
wins the splendid ultimate tri-
umph, Theodore Roosevelt.
A man is beginning to age
when he loses interest in what is
going on about him. when the
general panorama of life as re-
fiected in books and newspapers.
becomes unimportant to him,
when he ceases to respond to the
promptings of love of city, State
and Nation. and when youth and
its way annoy him.,
However. interest in any one
of these things is essential to
the maintenance of a young
heart and intellect, which we
often find in bodies eighty years
old. An absorbing work neces-
sarily causes withdrawal from
many activities. The writing of
a book, the mastery of a lam
guage, the study of a science,
the prosecution of a big business
or a profession compel time-sav-
ing, and the minds and emotions
of men who do such things can
not be disturbed by the trivial
things which yield so much pleas.
ure to the majority.
!. Age has set in for its frosty
reign when a mans sense of hu-
NOR and love of fun stiffen.
They are the true bubbles of
youth in heart and mind. When
one can not play with his grand
children and enjoy it; when he
can not laugh at a joke or a fun
ny incident, when his intellect is
stuck on solemnities, formalities
and things remote he is old.
His elasticity and bounce, his
ginger and punch, are gone.
We have no fault to find with
the man or woman who tries to
keep fit. 1t is a very wise thing
to do and to that very thing we
owe much success of modern
business. But there is such a
thing as pushing the thing too
far. A lot of people think that
keeping fl" is the most impor.
tant thing in the world. They
talk of nothing else and they do
nothing else. If a lot of these
faddists were asked, "But what
are you keeping fit for?" they
would not be able to think of a
thing to answer. They are
merely keeping fit in order that
they may keep more fit, which
seems to be going in a circle.
why do you turn out for ev-
cry road hog that comes along?"
asked the missus, rather Grossly.
''The right of way is ours, isn't
it?"
As for turning out the reason
is plainly suggested in this epi-
taph which appeared in a news
paper recently: Here lies the
body of William Jay, who died
maintaining his right of way.
He was right, dead right, as he
sped along, but he's just as dead
as if he'd been wrong"
