W . {HE DURHAMEHRUNICH i: Many a man and woman is Pref maturely old through worries in- flicted in the home life. BOYs and girls who don’t know the trials their parents had to endure, and often don’t care, are a hindrance rather than a help in many cases. The tendency of the age is for the young and rising generation to regard as fogeyism the opinions and actions of their parents. They never stop to think what sacri- fices the old folks made that their progeny might escape the trials they were forced to endure. The younger generation of to-day knows far too much, or at least they think they do. and for par- ents to teach them anything dif- «Ierent, or even try to do so. is a worthless waste or energy. We often think of parents, who tug"- ged and toiled for comfort, and Villr'l'i they should be enjoying the: evening of their lives in luxury 3310 young folks were planning. how they might Waste in useless {Twasur‘e the hard-earned sub- 9‘.::.-.c<â€"- of thc~?'”.parcnts.
