FORTY ODD

1t was not so long ago thai
there echoed the "Sorry, but We
are not using men over forty
though the applicant had been vel
educated, was personable and moi
much past the forty mark. Yes
it was, and still is perhaps, fell
by some employers that a man
over forty is slowing down, that
he will not adapt himself so readily
learn new-fangled tactics as quickly
and not take orders so willingly
as the younger men. The dire
need of more men in all fields
has perhaps helped to dispel this
illusion to a great extent, but we
should not need a war to teach
us that often a man is just begin
ming to find himself by forty. His
possibilities are developed as he
has aged. Notice the Judgment
exercised by man of forty-five
and one of twenty-five. You may
be an old man in the field of
baseball when you are in your late
thirties, but usually other positions
find you betted equipped through
time with added wisdom and in
creased experience. Later years
find the individual more resource
full and more apt to stand strain be-
cause of a factor known as patience.
Youths hands may be stronger but
that does not mean they are wiser.
Youth must await its turn and age
must not be put into the discard be-
cause it Is no longer fresh. There
are many names put before us in
this international picture right
now, names that speak of force
and intelligence and in this list you
find many are your so-called older
men, Few here in Kennewick who
do not see why DR.. Oliver Wendell
Holmes ON his eightieth birthday
felt there is always more to learn.
He put it this way: at seventy
you have much to learn. I, at
eighty, find new vistas opening
around me in every direction" Ma
ture may waste much but an in
telligent man will not let a bound
airy line of age keep him from
developing.

An important part Of Hitler's afro
city is to take all the food from oc-
cupied countries. AS a result many
of the inhabitants starve. In Greece
the death rate Is said to be 800
a day. Parents have deliberately
starved themselves that their chill
dren might have the food. This Is
another thing that Nazi lovers in
this country will not be able to go
about after the war is over and cry
down as propaganda as they did fol-
lowing the World War. -.

BOARDING AGAIN.

Coffee rationing with us, meat
about to be, clothing foretold for the
near future, dairy products a prob
ability, conditions point to more
printing of books and stamps and
distribution shortages. But how
else can we secure food stuffs for
instance, when supplies are bought
up in many cases, by the hoarder?
When stamp permits one to a
pound of coffee and there are
numerous stamps in the family,
though each is entitled to a pound
it isn't necessary to cash in on all
of them at the same time. II
everyone in the country did so the
coffee supply would be used up and
some people would again have to
do without. Because there is a
shortage Of butter there are house
wives who buy in as much of a
hoarder's supply as they can pos
sibly keep in their refrigerator, be-
cause they want to play safe. To
go into stores and invest in clothes
you don't need, to go into shops
and buy up gadgets for your kit
chen which you'll never use but
that you want to get before they
disappear from the shelves, are
ways of boarding along with the
fellow who stored sugar in huge
amounts or piled cans of goods sky
high in the basement We all
know that when we hoard we are
actually helping the Axis to a
victory. They can stop them at
Stalingrad, defeat Rommel, hold
the Solomons, but right here in
KenneWick we can stage a front
that IS as bad as waving swas-
tika. Making a shortage of COM
modities Intentionally is the idea!
Buying War Bonds with one hand
and boarding food and clothing
with the other isn't striking a
balance. : 7 81

After having tried to teach sew
eral beginners the printing trade
our respect, and admiration, and
sympathy for the school teacher
reaches new heights. The feat
of getting a new idea into a human
skull still remains one Of the races
greatest achievements. We don't
know the scientific method of de-

be accurately appraised in from
