Ay J<ie M arsh How to Stop Worrying I guess folks in our town do about as much worrying as in yours—over housing and prices, and crops, and jobs—and the little domestic prob lems that are always coming up. Dad Hoskins, who’s lived to the happy age of eighty, has a simple formula for stopping worry. About every problem, he asks himself: Is there anything I can do about it? If there is, he never postpones making a decision, or taking neces sary action. If there isn’t anything he can do about it, he seta aside a “worrying hour"* after dinner, and get« his worrying over in one concentrated period. When that’s over, he relaxes over a friendly glass sf beer with Ma Hoskins—and they talk about pleasant things together, until bed- time. ' ' A \ From where I sit, that’s as work able a formula as you could find,« . right down to the mellow glass of beer that seems to wink away jour worries.
