Years ago I remember having seen a plcture in one of the “funny papers” (?) representing two brothers. The one had stayed on the farm; the other had gone to the city. At twenty they hod probably looked about as much slike as brothers are apt to: at sev- enty the city banker was plump, ru- bicund, straight, clean-shaven and trimly’ dressed, while the rura] farm- er was thin, cadaverous, bent, shaggy and in old clothes with fearfully bag- kneed trousers. Manifestly this pbptograph did not 1epresent their feeitags and condition, mental ‘or physical; It didn't tell whether the farmer had a good appe- tite and slept well o nights, nor whether the banker had;to live on tomst and tea and sleeping potions The picture teld how they looked, on- ly; what impress their lives has left on their outsides. And, certalnly, far as this weat, it was quite that the farmer had had a great deai the hardest time of it.

We know what annoyance it bréeeds; what good does it do? None; none at all_Mind you, worry and fore- | sight are two very diffcrent thifgs. Webster defines fol ht as “a provi- dent care of futur! prudence in guarding against evil.” That's a good thing, a necessary thing; Indeed, the one essential thing upon which we co- workers with freaky Nature depend for, all the success we can squeeze out of the enforced partnership. We've sim- ply got to look aheall and plan ahead; foresee dungers and provide against fhe; to prepare for accidents; te make insurance of some sort against unpredictable chances. We need to use, in th§ way, all the knowledge we can | gain and all the expetlence we have| acquired from the past. But, having done all this, having gone as far as we know how, what—on—earth is the use of worrying about what we can't help? Webster defines worry as “a of undue solicitude.” There you have it, “undue” solicitude. And un- e means “disproportionate, excessive, immoderate, inordinate.” We must be solicitous as regards our work and our outlook. But there's a big black line dividing due from undue solicitude: foresight frem worry. Take those beanpoles, for example: I've al- ready got down a lot'of strong. tough hornbeam and hiekory saplings from the hill; I've sharpened them well; I'm going to make deep holes with & crowbar, and stick them at leadt sixteen or eighteen inches into' the ground; I'm going to tamp the dirt around them.
