It \s true that the war attained such proportions that the ef fort involved made this consummation of little ilue; still that objective on the part of both Vrance and England was attained, The Fountain of Youth There is a sovereign remedy for growing old. is to grow older. At first thought this sug- stion may seem somewhat meaningless, but it isn’t. It is this very capacity for growing older which adds such a charm, such a wistfulness, to childhood. There awaits the child a boundless sea of experience upon which it longs to enter. So vast, so varied is that sea that time never passes quickly enough, so eager is the child to grow up and meet those experiences. Most peo ple of mature years can recall those radiant days of childhood, so full of eagerness, so full of dreams—the day which Robert Louis Stevenson sang about when he wrot | It Over the hills and far away 4 little boy steals from his morning play, ind under the blossoming apple tree He lics and dreams of the things to be, New Course of Instruction inf with all the fancy work and use less courses of instr curriculum of the &chools of the land, a new » of study has been added in som the merit of ge Th urs sense. subject ction that has been added to schoc as Of battles fought and of victories won, | Of wrongs o’erthrown and of great deeds done; Of the valor that he shall prove some day, Over the hills and far away, Over the hills and far atcay.

These things all contributed te state of mind on the plaintiff's part that amounted to that de gree of mental anguish contemplated by the code as meriting a divorce and alimony for the suf. fering endured. The problem for the court to solve is whether a “dirty look,” unaccompanied by physical abuse or eruel and unusual punishment of other hind supplies sufficient ground under the law to grant the plaintiff relief from the dirty looker.
