Observations

Life begins at 4O??? That
theory has long gone into the
scrap. heap. When I was a boy
persons who attained the age Of
40 were wont to seek the rocking
chair, the cane, an dother en-
blem of age, and sit waiting for
death to remove them from this
mortal world. 1t is a fact that
our ancestors had much harder
lives, physically, than we have.
There were not the gadgets which
make activities SO much easier,
reducing labor: on the road to
a science. But there are still
some persons who are living in
the time of the ancient worthies,
the patriarchs and the apostles.
Only this week, a minister asked
me what l am going to do with
the seventy years promised us
by the Bible. So, you may
imagine that there are still some
persons who resent the fact that
man has longer life span now
than he did when there were
no electric shovels and plows.
However, the figures will bear
me out if you examine them,
and I wish you all to join with
me in thinking 'Life begins
every day" Try that.
I am sure that every one who
ever heard Ethel Hardy Smith
