Both Of you are right and both OF
you are wrong
Age does brilIo n.sdom, but some
Of 1t does not fit modern condi-
tions and has to be revamped to
apply to the world in which we live
today. 1t is not to be wondered at
that your grandfather gets upon
your nerves. Old people often get
very untidy about their clothes and
their persons. Frequently their table
manners belong to day in which
there were only two-tined forks
and knife was the accepted mode
of conveying food to the mouth.
Maybe their grammar Is rickety
and they did not have the advan-
tages of the education that you have
Nearly always they are opinionated
and set in their ways. 1t seems to
be the inevitable law of nature that
age turns us garrulous and makes
us bores, given to telling long wind
ed stories of our pasts.
But, granting all this, can you not
have little pity for this old man
whose youth and strength have gone
from him and who has no interest in
life except in his memories? Can
you not have patience with him
when you reflect that the time will
surely come to you, unless you die,
when you will be old, with out
moded views, with manners and
habits that belong to a past gen.
Grafton, mumbling your oft-told
tales, and get just as much on
your grandchildren's nerves as your
grandfather gets on yours?
Think this over. Remember that
your grandfather in his day has
been man among men. Perhaps
from him you inherited your strong
body and your good mind. Perhaps
he laid the foundation of the for
tune you are enjoying, and you owe
to him a debt of gratitude that you
should at least repay with forbear-
ance. Talk this matter over with
your mother if your granddaddy is
her father and with your father if
granddaddy is his father and get
their slant upon it. Maybe they
will solve your problem by sending
you off to school.

You'll feel so young and carefree

charming blouse -with-skirt combi-
nation. There's beguiling femi-
nine softness about the blouse, tai
lored as it is, with high turnover
collar, upped sleeves and fullness
gathered onto the yoke. The skirt
is a diagonal swirl of fabric, ex-
travagantly flaring, with impudent,
jutting pockets. There's an air of
freedom and daring about it that
will endear it to the hearts of the
young and fashion-wise who like to
be just bit different about their

Make the blouse of sheer white

Dorothy Dix Says
Difficult for Youth and Old Age
To Be Compatible in One Home

Dear Miss Dix: I am a boy Of
IS and my trouble is about my
grandfather. He lives with us and
he gets on my nerves until I nearly
60 crazy. 1t makes me feel that I
can't be happy at home. In fact,
he spoils my home for me. 1t is
not his fault, but he just isn't used
to living the way we do and every
thing he does rubs me raw. The
way he eats and dresses and talks,
you know. wish you would tell me
what to do, as I haven't the courage
to talk it over with my mother and
tell her what is wrong and what
makes me so unhappy. r. H.
Answer-Well, son, the problem
you face is one of the most insoluble
ones in all human relationship. 1t
is how to mix youth and age har-
moniously at a time of life when
both are most egotistic and have
least patience and adaptability.
In theory, all old people are
sanity, gentle, sweet. filled with
wisdom and are benediction on the
household. In reality they are
nearly always querulous and can
tankerous, opinionated, prejudiced
and hard to get along with. In theory
also. youth is beautiful and fasci-
mating and filled with reverence and
admiration of its elders. But, in
reality. youth is crude and cruel
and filled with lf-conceit. 1t re-
CARDS every one older than itself as
dotards who merely cucumber the
earth and are in the way of boys
and girls.
So, you see. for youth and age to
dwell together in harmony takes a
bit of doing, as the English say.
Because you are too young and he is
too old you cannot understand each
other or make allowances for each
other. Your granddad thinks that
because he has lived so many years
he has become an oracle and that
you should sit at his feet and learn
wisdom. Because you have lived so
short a time you think that you
know it all and that his ideas and
opinions passed away with the dodo.
