Austin, Texas Feb. 17 —Some
ks are old at sixty while others
! mentally and physically alert
eighty. The number of years
} has lived may not be a true
ex to ones physical condi-
i. Actually, the length of a
son's life span is influenced

-emature hardening of the
arteries, often due to avoidable
infections, improper diet and
possibiy worry and strain is to a
certain extent preventable," de-
clared Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State
Health Officer.
Many of the problems con-
nected with the hygiene of old
age are due to lowered mental
power. Therefore, a cheerful and
optimistic attitude toward the
aged, especially during sickness,
is essential to their weli being.
Oid people regard their condi-

can be fully dressed and out of
bed. When they can be up, the
excretory organs function more
satisfactorily. However, when an
elderly person complains of being
overtired, or otherwise not phy-
sicaliy fit, a day of rest in bed is
advisable. By providing light and
easily digested food and applying
warmth to the body of an aged
patient, he is often tided over a
mild or threatened iliness.
Special attention should also be
paid to proper clothing, diet and
exercise of the elderly. With
reasonable attention to certain
well defined and easily fotiowed
principles of personal hygiene, it
is possible to grow old gracefuliy.
Furthermore it is also possible,
in many instances, to retain ones
faculties to such an extent as to
make old age a pleasure rather
than a burden.
DEEDS AND CONVEYANCES

of t'ie younger generation is that

From where I sit Joe Marsh
Handy and Easy
Sign Up'
Last month's safety drive was
a big success—atmost. Every one
helped—the schools ran movicn
on safe driving, Rotary put np
posters, and Handy and Easy
Peters went out on their own.
The boys put up a big sign by
the side of the highway. It said,
"Stow down—the life you save
may be your own." It was a good
idea—after the police moved the
sign back tweive feet.
Ia their eothaaiaam Handy and
B**y put it too chat to the road
—i" fact, right on the aharpeet
curve on the highway. They made
driving tuna/a by cutting off the
view around the curve.
From where I sit, !ots of peo-
pte—even though they mean weM
—suffer from short-sightedness
now and again. For instance, some
can never see any further than
their own preferences. They even
go so far as to object to my choice
of a gfass of beer with supper.
Shoatdn't we aiwaya take the
long view". . . aad respect ear
neighbors' rights?
