She's 60 years old, and she depends on us for all her enter tainment. We urge her to join a club, find a hobby, and try to make friends, but she says she's too old. I know lots of women older, than Mother M. who are working at full time jobs, but Mother H. won't even try any thing new. How old is "too old"? An Anxious Daughter-in-law. "Old" is a relative term. Some people are old at 20, while oth ers are young at 80. Being "too old" is a matter primarily of the mind although emotional aging can spread rapidly to the body. Some bodies, it is true, are more fragile, more delicately built than others. Some glandular set ups are swifter to reach an im balance than others.

GAHT 1 ,500 3,000 i STOP IN AND SAY HELLO! ... TO OUR . . . NEW RECORD SHOP MANAGER ... HARRY CROFOOT MumujcrmiEii frequently these effects of aging are preceded by an emotional 'let-down," a lack of interest in people, a loss of hope and desire for growth. To a certain extent, then. aging can be delayed by effort. An active interest in others is powerful medicine, for both mind and body. A hobby, a club, a study group, a charity, a job au these keep a person young, no matter how many candles burn on the birthday cake. An in-law may be a particular ly apt victim of aging. In a strange home, without responsi bilities or duties, she (or he) may feel the insecurity of being an outsider. Unwanted and lone ly, she may feel sorry for her self, perhaps even antagnostic to others, trading on her small ail ments for sympathy until hypo condria becomes reality. With drawn, she may feel her world becoming smaller, until she is genuinely afraid of trying new activities or making new friends. When this happens, an individ ual is old. Senior citizens today have unique opportunities to remain young. More and more employ ers realize the wisdom of hiring mature workers. Clubs and adult education activities welcome them. Churches, charities, com munity projects bid for their participation. No one today, with a little wise effort, need ever be too old."

Central Msl Drug Your Charge Plate Drug Stor MAIN and CENTRAL STOHl Woman Designs Men's Clothing New York (IT) Many Ameri can men who buy medium priced ties, handkerchiefs, shirts and socks may be surprised to learn that one of the experts catering to their pattern pref erences is a woman. To attractive, 32-yearold Cris Darlington, one of the few wom en designers in what is largely a man's field, knowing what men like is no problem. Males were plentiful in her early home life, she was surrounded by them in two years of. pre-med school and during two years in the Navy engineering-drafting de partment, she married and most of the two dozen employes at her Marlin Studios are men. Although she designs drape ries, women's scarves and blouses and other items, her preference is for working with the materials used in men's wear. "Men like accessories a lot gaudier than women give them credit for," she said, "and it's the women who are the conser vatives, possibly because they don't want the men to outshine them in color and dressing verve." Men like gold initials on their handkerchiefs and hankies, socks and ties with matching de signs, she added. It surprises her that men have become practical and wise about ties. 'I used to do a lot of work on ties that sold for $7.50 each in the stores, ie explained. "Now the same stores buy more ties from me but the sales are in fab rics that are made up into ties selling at $2 to $5. Men have de cided that it is better for their wardrobes to have several less costly ties than to have only one or two expensive ones."
