What is there about this father that is old? His face may be lined, yes— with the crinkles of good humor. His eye$ have seen much, but they’re merry—mirrors of a youthful heart. How did he get that way? He didn’t! He stayed that way . . . youthful and unafraid . . . un- skilled in the aimless art of worrying. He remembered that nothing worth while is given away — excepting"l‘imc — and Opportunity of which every American has an abundant share. At all costs, he kept the spirit of youth— Confidence, Courage, Vision, Action. It worked for him. It kept him young. It made America. 5 Gnjoy '"»“f%:;:«z;z:;f"Budwelser MAKE THIS TEST minule goliden Og; priNk Budweiser FOR FIVE DAYS. ON THE SIXTH DAY TRY TO DRINK A SWEET BEER.
