Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Old age is q condition, . state of
mind, rather than figures on dial"
We could know nothing whatever
about time II we had no memory for
its passing. no association by which to
mark beginnings and endings. Time
itself is a metaphysical concept rather
than a concrete thing. We all break
this stream of time up into parts or
periods and give them arbitrary names,
such as hours, years, decades. etc.
Memory or the power to recall past
events and to locate them In some
definite period, Is the only reason any
one can possibly assign for the term
growing old" We grow old psyche
logically when our memories fade away.
ie., when past experiences no longer
influence daily existence.
According to Freud nervous people
suffer from memories. On the same
principle, those who live long enjoy
their memories. The way to test the
truth Of this statement is to study those
personalities who have been important
enough to make a history for them
selves, and who at the same time have
lived long in years.
For example, Alexander Hamilton's
widow survived him so years, dying at
the age of 81. During these SO years
she wore the widows dress of the
earlier period. She held to her men,
cries. It would appear that she lived
long in terms Of years, because she
stayed young psychologically.
Take the case Of old persons who
reach the stage called second child
hood" Their capacity to recall past
events Is best for early events. They
readily forget recent happenings. unless
these may in some way be closely re-
lated to past events. In a psychological
sense they possess a state of mind which
links them with the days of youth.
When person begins to forget the
days of his youth he begins to decay.
To grow old is to forget Many people
are old at 40 Some at 80 are young.

BUSY s M Q N HIS IS ENDED TODAY BY PRES. HOOVER
Period Passed Has Seen Many Accomplishments
 Being Attained

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Presi- dent Herbert Hoover reached the end of his first six months as Chief Executive and looked back on a busy period which has seen weighty problems Of the Adminis- tration enunciated and important projects undertaken.
 Six months ago Herbert Hoover stood in drizzling rain and took the oath of office and instituted conversations with England which are expected to soon result in an international agreement on naval disarmament.
 The President declared himself unequivocally for the strictest pos sible conservation of oil resources and has taken a step toward that end.
 The President has demanded the reorganization of sthe Republican Party in the Southern States, a commission has been appointed to make study of law enforcement and another commission is at work on problems of child education.
 The farm bill embodying the ideah of the President has been approved by Congress and a Fed eral Farm Board has been ap- pointed.

MAC CHICKEN SEES FLYING BOAT
 AS LOGICAL FOR INLAND WATERS

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-The huge flying boat, plying along the routes of an earlier mode of trans portation, the steamboat, is seen by William P. MacCracken, assist ant secretary of commerce for aer- onautics, as a logical step in air transportation in the United States.
 The thousands of miles of navi- gable streams and lakes are poten- tial flying boat routes where space for alighting and taking off is un- restricted and where emergency landing places are always at hand.
 MacCracken, who recently return ed from three-month trip abroad, said he was much impressed by the use of large flying boats on vari- ous air lines in Europe.
 Europe is far ahead in the de- velopment of flying boats" the air secretary said. and there should be more development along that line in this country"
 With unlimited space in which to take off and land, huge flying boats could carry heavy cargoes be- tween the waterway cities which formerly relied on the steamboat as the principal means of. transporta-

ed by many second only to that O. Attorney General, since farm reliei had been almost as great an issue in the campaign as Prohibition Consequently, it was not surprising that MT. Hoover early set himsel to the selection of this official. How he proceeded has only now become known. In years gone by agricultural secretaries had beer chosen largely from among farm paper editors and heads of agricul- tural colleges. Naturally, the new President first turned to these sources. Many names were pre- sented, only to be rejected after careful canvasses.
 For time the task appeared almost insurmountable, and there was talk that William M. Jardine would be continued as Secretary. However, soon afterword MT. Jar dine announced that he had ac- cepted an important post outside oi the Government and would retire March 4.
 At this juncture James w. Good, who had conducted the campaign in the great western farming re- zion and subsequently, was made Secretary of War, took hurried trip to Washington to consult with the Chief" as Hoover was called by all of his political lieutenants.
 In his vigorous, nervous fashion he told Hoover the idea that the Agricultural Secretary had to come from the farm colleges, papers or organizations was a mistaken one.
 What you need is big execu- tive he said, and proceeded to hammer home arguments to sup port his position. Hoover listened, adopting role which comes easy with him. Suddenly he made his decision.
 All right; go find him." he said In substance.
 Good set out and Hoover went to Florida for his pre-inaugural vaca- tion. After a process of elimination Good centered upon Hyde, who then was in Florida fishing. The President-elect was communicated with, and the former Missouri Governor found himself suddenly summoned to Belle Isle. The two had met once before. Now there was a sort of sizing up conversation and soon afterWard Hyde was offered the post. Hyde was foremost among the 1 supporters of former Gov. Frank 1 0. Lowden of Illinois, the most |

AMERICAS FORESIGHT RELIEVES HER OF ALL GRIEF
 ON YOUNG PLAN POINT TOUCHING RHINE OCCUPATION
By KIRKE SIMPSON

WASHINGTON, Sept. As all lied and German conferees have been struggling along in the Young plan discussion at the Hague, America could well sigh with relief at one of the parleys aspccts-final evacuation of the Rhineland.
 Departure of the last Uni c q States troops from occupied sec tions of Germany six years ago marked the lifting of a burden from Washington which has not returned to trouble it.
 Recent developments in the rep araticns fuss, with England willing to take her remaining 5000 Tom mics out and France standing pat on Keeping her 54,0Oo there, re- calls the sudden withdrawal of the residue Of American troops from Coblenz in 1923
 A year before the war depart ment sought permission to bring home Major General Aliens com mand from Coblenz, the Yankee contingent had dwindled to a thiII the size of wartime infantry reg iment. The smallest force at pres ent in the region is Belgium S. 2,800 men which she, in sympathy with England, has agreed to re- ouce by evacusting the ten-year zone.
 Not since the transport St. Mi hiel landed the last thousand regu- lars from the Rhineland at Sa- vannah, Charleston and New York has Washington had any connection with military sanctions for en- forcement of peace treaties terms.
 The whittling down of Aliens force was in line with the policy of President Harding and Secretary to decrease Germanys eco- homie burdens to facilitate a rep arations settlement.
 France, however, pressed for mili- tary occupation of the Ruhr, to compel payments which Germany declared were outside her capacit''.
 Into this situation Secretary Hughes threw himself. In his fa- nous New Haven speech he point ed the road ultimately toward the Dawes separations plan.
 January 10, 1923, word came of- icially to Washington that occupa- ion would be carried through by | Trance. A year earlier the state | department had successfully op- ,oscd the war departments desire o withdraw Aliens troops on the round that action might have an

South Amer ica, with 6.8O0.000 square miles, could comfortably accommodate the whole present population of the earth. In fact, he looks for tre- mendous development there and predicts that Brazil is destined to become one of the most powerful nations.

 Trans-lake service already is in operation across Lake Erie be- tween Detroit and Cleveland. This soon will be extended by the Stou. lines to Buffalo with two Dornier super-wahl flying boats purchased in Germany.
 To stimulate development of the flying boat in the United States, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics has undertaken tue building of seaplane test channel at its laboratories at Langley Fielo, Va.
