' ADVERTISING TALKS NO. 13 (I'-y Kalph Kay. I If ON RETIRING When Woodrow Wil FROM BUSINESS son decided some time ago to apply for a Carnegie pension he must have had In mind a program of continued work of some sort, for a life of com plete inaction, unless compulsory, is unendurable. When fully engaged as an educator Mr. Wilson found leisure to do some writing on questions of social and political philosophy, and it is probable that he thought to add to his list of books after the Car negie fund should relieve him from further effort to support himself and family by his own efforts. What really happened in the case is a strik ing proof of the fallacy of retiring from business as long as there is strength and capacity to go on. There may be modifications of routine ac cording to circumstances, but the Idea of quitting work altogether is a delusion. Nirvana is not for this world, if any any. A man who thought to retire and was then elected pres ident of the United States is a re markable refutation of the idea that re- t'uu sell men s clothing, you invi to convince men that it is to t.n-ir ail'.ai.u.-c to buy them.
