Editor Haileyburian and Cobalt Post. Sir: . It is claimed that people with certain income grow old grace- fully and live longer than those who have to earn their bread. But the income people have a stupid kind of life, and though they may hang on a good many years, they can hardly be said to do much real living. The best one can say is not that they lived so many years, but that it took them so many years to die. Some people imagine that regu- lar habits produce long life, but that depends somewhat on the ha- bits. Only-the other day I read an article written by a physcian in which regular habits, -good ones, were declared to be quite danger- ous. Where life is perfectly regu- lar, all the wear and tear comes on the same nerve, every blow falls on the same place. Variety even in bad direction is a great relief. But living long, has nothing to do with getting old gracefully. 'If we could only keep from be- ing annoyed at little things, it would -add to the joy of living. Great sorrows are. few, and after * "Thursday, September 17, {959 all do not effect us as much as the many almost nothings that attack us from every side. Many are bothered more with the dust than the mountains. "t is a ¥ood thing to have an object in life, something to work for and think for, If a man pays starvation wages, thinks only of himself, and his comfort, his own importance, he will not grow old gracefully. More and more his spirit, small-and mean, will leave its impression in his face and es- pecially in his eyes. You look at him arid feel that there is no jewel in the casket, that a shriveled soul is living in a 'the Haileyburian Page 9 tumbled down house. If the busi- ness men would stop when they get enough, they might have a chance to grow old gracefully, but most of them go on and on grasping right. and left until like the old bush horse stiff and lame they drop dead on the road.
