o If one would understand
older people, one should first
forget age. Oldness is not so
much passing a certain birth
day as it is the rearrange-
ment of a complicated set Of
physical, mental, social and
economic circumstances. One
must not label a man who has
lived a lot of years as an old
person. For an individual who
has early formed good habits
of living, picked up the i'm
portant techniques of adjust
ment and acquired a good at
titude or philosophy, life
continues to be an ever-in-
creasing adventure in devel-
opment. Development can
continue at sixty, seventy and
eighty as surely as it did in
youth. - William B. Terhune

To Tackle Biq Tenpins

Johnstown, Pa. - Follow
ers of the tenpin game have
, expressed a desire to organize
a doubles (two-man team)
league within the member
ship of St. Rochus c. F. u.
Lodge 5 of Johnstown, Pa.
Any lodge members, ie-
bonafide G. F. U. certificate
holders as contrasted to Club
social members, desiring to
bowl tenpins for the coming
1856 season are asked to
place their names on the
bowling league roster sheet
conspicuously being displayed
in the club-rooms of the Cro-
atian Home, Broad Street,
Johnstown, Pa. The welcome
mat is especially being rolled
out before prospective men,
bers.
We are contemplating using
a 1870 handicap and will not
be averse either to having
mixed teams. Therefore let us
hear from you in sufficient
numbers to very soon call an
organizational m e e tin g at
which rules and bylaws can
be formulated to govern the
proposed league.
Behind this call to arms of
the Johnstown tenpin addicts
is the desire to see St. Rochus
Lodge 5 represented at the
1856 Annual Tournament to
be held in Buffalo, N. Y.

Since then the date of the

are informed by John Bado-
vinac, president of the Pio-

point of already engaging the
Hollenden Hotel in Down

working on securing the
most convenient alleys at this
writing and will advise the

The tenpin bowling frater-

Pioneers will pull out all taps
IN the matter OF hospitality,
as in their own words, the

almost to the week with the
thirtieth anniversary of the
founding of their lodge, then
the second oldest and now the
oldest English Spe a k in 6
