HOW OLD ARE YOU An old proverb says: "It is never too late to learn." If you have let the years of youth pa»s without accumulating anything, don't get discouraged No man is a failure until he becomes a quilter. Men have done great things in their older years. Franklin at 50 studied natural philosophy; Dryden and Scott were not known aa authors until each was in his fiftieth year; llandol wa» 40 before he published any of his great works.
