Coronory Disease

Undoubtedly you have been

THE COUNCILS VIEW

A mountainous problem is
being built here out Of what
most fathers would regard as
a very fortunate situation.
The fathers biggest mis-
take. perhaps, Is in not well
coming his daughter-in-law's
voice in the family councils.
II he suspects her of being
a back-seat driver. he should
ask her TO sit up in front on
occasion. and give her a
chance 10 form better opin-
ions.
He may be surprised some
day to learn that she is not
against him and that her
business experience may be
valuable.
1t is decidedly wrong for
the father to reason that his
son should remain utterly
quiescent because. some day,
he will inherit the business.
Unless he works into his
responsibilities gradually. he
will not be fit to take over
the business when he in
heritS.
A few years of waiting may
seem a short and reasonable
time to a father who has
lived most of his life, but it
can seem an eternity of
Illustration to a young man
who is eager to learn and
grow and who is being put
of unreasonably and un-
wisely.
The trouble here seems to
be that the father is I'M
willing either to acknowledge
his declining age or his sons
maturing age.
