Man Of Fifty Need No Longer

Formerly ciasssd as elderly, He Now
Makes Strong Appeal 70 Girl on
Life's Threshold.

An attractive personality ln the eyes
Of the Girl Of Twenty Is the Man of

To a girl who Is Just on the TIRES

Fifty make a strong appeal, writes a
Girl Of Twenty In the Continental Edl-
ton OF the London Mail. She lacks
the experience and knowledge Of the
world. and though she may not admit
It she realizes II. H's presence acts
a. an anOdyne. For a time she has
done with youth and her interests are
centered In those older than herself.
II is often only a passing phase, but
nevertheless it is a very real one.
Miss Twenty is fiattered that man
many years her senior should find
pleasure In her society. For the at
traction Is mutual
The Man Of Fifty Is allured by the
uusophisticated outlook Of a young
girl. He Is amused and interested
and also. maybe. in her way, fiattered.
1t has always been thus, and it is
natural that It should be 50. But new
er has the Man Of Fifty been appreci-
ated as he is today.
Conditions have changed and the
Man Of Fifty has cnanged-Or rather.
he has adapted himself to changed
conditions. Incidentally, it has been
the making Of him.
In those dim days before the war,
and the annihllatl0n Of so many young
er men. there was no place for the
Man Of Fifty. He was even too old
at forty, and at fifty he was relegated
to his armchair.
Things have changed since then
There are many gaps TO MI and the
Man OF Fifty is stiu filling them-uot
only in work. but also in play.
In so doing he is recovering his
youth, which he was In danger Of los
ing one has only to take LOOK at
the modern baIlroon TO confirm this.
. There are many iroH-gray heads there.
They tell tales although the feet do
not give anything away. These fox

they have been learned today and

Thus in many wags Mr.. Fifty meets
Miss Twenty on equal terms. He is
not only guide, philosopher and friend,
but also pal"
He Is still active enough to enjoy
games with her-lawn tennls and golf
are not too strenuous for him. Thes

widely read, for Senator Walsh pre-.

The document is not merely a

note for the coming campaign it is
admirable. The visit Of Chairman

Quoted by the Central 1nterscholastic

40 states. according to recent an
nouncement of the association at
Madison, Wis. Bross wrote a 1900

dates competed.
Judge Baker Brownell, lecturer in
editorial writing and editorial policy

editorial writer for the Chicago Daily
News, chose the Great Falls editorial
for first honors. There is no scholar

as might be expected, but the honor
Of winning such rnting out of thou
sands of contestants in more than 40
states, is worth good deal in itself.
Judge BrowIell made the following
statement on the ratings Of the edi-
torials submitted:
''The standards used in judging the
editorials were somewhat as follows:
1.-The significance of the editorial
to the public addressed.
2The effectiveness. Of the first

3-The style.

for prizes were really read by the
school publics concerned, commented

the center of attack is that of the

good the coach did. regardless of
whether or not the team We're fighters

seem to take into consideration the
quality of the team, their team work,
or the fight and spirit inspired in
them, but dolefully wall about lost
games and tell what they would do
were they coaching team.
Such has evidently been the case of

less clamoring for more coaching as
sistance. This latter is sorely needed
and with the amount of work divided
evenly between two coaches it would
not be amiss to expect, in the future,
more wonderful teams than the past

"Since Coach Crouch's arrival in
Great Falls eight years ago Great Falls
high school football teams have never
been at the bottom of the ladder but
always fighting near the top. This is
what leads to one of the greatest Of the
present MISUNDERSTANDING A coach,
possibly inferior to another, may have
the proper luck to turn out a winning
team, while his contemporary. though
superior, may have a losing team. The
inferior man gets the glory while the
public is too prone to criticize the su-
periOr.

Great Falls tribune., 1922-04-16

His reputation as a teacher Of the
cleanest of clean athletics has spread
through the state, thus bringing honor
to Great Falls high and to the city.
In all events the team turned out
by Coach Crouch this year has ex-
ceeded all hopes and expectations. The
team lost and the coach receives the
criticism. Had we won he would have
been honored. At it is he gets the
blame. Because he did not do his
duty? No. Because his team was not
the best? No. Because his men did
not have the necessary fight and spirit !?
No. Because they were not taught
the proper kind of football? Yes, say
a few. but others know that he taught
his men the best football adaptable to
these particular men. No, the reason
for the discussion is because the team
lost the game.
Nevertheless this seasons team has
maintained such a high standard for a

must meet.

vitality of opinion. Though the editorial
is too long and the style too thick

superior power and significance The
second prize editorial is concise in style
and articulate in structure. 1t has too
many conventional exhortations but its

and too leisurey in manner, handles
