To find life easy you must develop right habits that make life automatic. Men who develop right attitudes to ward toll soon become unconscious adepts In things burdensome to others. There's real Joy In being able to sur pass those who would be your com petitors. After all It's Just a matter of being on the Job. The normal man dreads the dny when he will not be rated at his best. It is foolish to Imagine that you will never grow old. That's part of na ture. The way to enter the older atage without embarrassment Is to rise with the business to where you won't have to do the physical tasks that require young shoulders. Let youth hustle the merchandise, you rise to the point of telling them where to put It Grit. Some One Else's or Some One's Else. The expressions some one else, any one else, everyone else, somebody else, etc., are used enrroctly as substantive phrases (that Is, used as a noun, serving as subject or object, whether a single word, phrase or clause) and have the possessive Inflection upon the I else, as some one else's house. Some hold these phrases as elliptical ex I presslons (expressions having part omitted), as, the house Is some one's i else (that Is, other than the person I previously mentioned). Therefore, I either some one else's or some one's j else Is correct. However, some one else's Is the expression In general use at the present time. I Japanese Amusement. We of the western world "loop the I loop" and "shoot the chutes" in our amusement parks; but In Japan the j people Indulge In more gentle forms of amusement. One of their most thrilling rides Is across Tokyo bay In , an aerial railway. !
