Just the Opposite
"You are beginning TO have just
the opposite. All your juices are
drying up, you are having fewer
feelings all the time and the new
angle you have on women is, you
wish all Of them would go jump in
the lake and quit ordering you

That leaves a good deal Of time TO
be consumed.
Another great difference be-
tween the change from adolescence
to manhood and the change from
manhood to old age is that the
adolescent is making new friends
all the time. while you are losing
them or getting indifferent to

Indifferent, to Work
$50 you are Indifferent about
work and people naturally turn to
your younger associates for Ad-

of doing a lot Of reading or writ
