Will you be sitting on the front porch, stroking your white hair? . Or will you be active, powerful and a leader?! This latter, you may doubt. For most of us have) the-false motion that old age necessitates inac- tivity Consider the case of the Earl of Halsbury—99 years old, the oldest man in the British House of Lords where he is leader of the conservatives or “did-hards.”. <4. 4s tah | Halsbury, in his prime, one of the greatest Eng-| lish lawyers, became Lord Chancellor in 1885 and served until 1905:when he wag. 83. . Now, prepar- ing to celebrate his’ 100th birthday, he is busily! supervising the writing of a 20-volume edition in-! terpreting the whdle law of England.

So is Senator Dill- ingham, 77, and Senator Culberson, 66. Only Uncle Joe Cannon, 85, is a real rival.

Von Moltke was in full uniform‘at 88: \ Commodore Vanderbilt did not become a great! railroad king until he was ‘70. At 88 he was the most active railroad man of his day. { Socrates began studying music when he was 80:1 Pasteur discovered his hydrophobia cure after). he was 60. Columbus, between 50 and 60, made his first voyages of American discovery. Be Voltaire, Newton, Spencer, Talleyrand and Thomas‘ Jefferson—all were active and in their in- tellectual prime after 80.

Sprinkle-Blow and the Twins were not the only people who were worried. Farmer Smith was worried, too. Day after day he watched the sky for clouds, but nary a one appeared. If they even so much as poked their Noses ‘over the edge of the world, Old Sizzly blew his roasting-hot breath on them and away they skidaddled. Farm- er Smith watched Old Gizzly march- ing through his fields and garden day after day, blowing his hot breath on every thing and drying things up dreadfully. The leaves were as brown as tobacco in places, and the grass, so lovely and green in the spring, had turned as yellow as clay and curled up like watch springs. The sass-patch garden looked so forlorn and droopy I can’t tell you about it, andthe stalks of.wheat and rye and_oats were as red as wrapping strings. The only place that did look as though it was really. enjoying the hot, dry weather was the corn ficld, and it-waved its long leaves of green in cool mockery at the rest of the world. It seemed to say, “Why not take the weather as it comes? Folks who make-such a fuss about |things usually get the worst of it. As jlong as Mr. Scare-Crow stays near to protect me from my enemies, I am happy.” | The corn field forgot that the min- jute the weather got a Dit chilly and cool it. began to. shiver and complain.
