Editorial
A great deal of consternation has
been caused over the present Hoover-Roosevelt
tactics. People are
very pleased with the splendid co
operation Hoover and Roosevelt are
displaying, and they feel that the
men are commendable for the re
lief they are trying to bring to
those who are in utter despair from
the "depression."
Mr. Hoover and President-elect
Roosevelt have evidently forgotten
the. campaign heat and have Bettled
down to the perplexing problems of
the present and future which we
are sure will be solved by the care
ful study of these two patriots.

more, because she has turned mod
ernistic and had her hair bobbed.
She says that it is much better this

I don t think she looks natural,
do you?" and others add, "I like it."

CARE OF THE AGED
At this writing I have eight peo
ple under my care who are over
eighty years of age six men and
two women. All but two of them
are on foot; one woman has had a
"stroke" but can get about and help
herself. She is 85. The other is
just past eighty, and has a sprain
ed hip, using crutches to go about
her house. One old man, 86, Is a vet
eran of the civil war; another will
be 88 at his next birthday.
It is interesting to watch these
old boys and girls, who have some
how come mighty close to living the
right way, else they could not have
achieved all these years with such
success; I meet many of half their
ages who really complain more
than they do.
And they know just a little more
about what is good for them to eat
than I do. I never put them on a
diet, except to ask them to eat
what "agrees' 'with them. If I
caught one old fellow eating salted
peanuts and topping off with Ice
cream, I would not Btop him. If
one has diabetes, I do not by any
means cut off a reasonable amount
of sugar from his dietary. I have
always been a stickler for letting
well enough alone.
One of them just went out my
door this moment has a leg ulcer.
I keep DRY dressings applied while
it heals nicely. Ho laughs over the
situation, not at all like a much
younger man would do.
And, my old people are so appre-
dative; they make one love them.
They have lived all these years, I
have no doubt, on that very prlnci
pie. The fellow who Is eternally
finding fault Is in a poor way to
live out a long and beautiful exist.
ence, because he burns up the good
within him. We younger ones may
learn from this.
