Joyful Speak no evil, cause no ache, Utter no jest that pain can awake, Guard your actions, bridle your tongue, For words are like adders When hearts are stung-. A PRAYER Lord, let me live like a Regular man, With Regular friends and true; Let me play the game on a Regular plan And play it that way all through; Let me win or lose with a Regular smile And never be known to whine, For that is the "Regular Fellow's" style And I want to make it mine! ' Berton Braley YOUTH , YOUTH is not a time of life it is a state of mind. It is not a matter of ripe cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a temper of the will, a quality of the imagination, a-vigor of the emotions; emo-tions; it is a freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a tempermental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure ad-venture over love of ease. This often exists in a man of fifty more than a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old merely living a number of years; people grow old only by deserting their ideals. , Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, doubt, self-distrust, self-distrust, fear and despair . . . these are the long, long years that bow the head and turn the growing grow-ing spirit back to dust. Whether seventy or sixteen, there is in every being s heart the love of wonder, the sweet amazement amaze-ment of the stars and star-like things and thoughts, the undaunted challenge of events, the unfailing child-like appetite for what next, and the joy and game of life. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair. In the central place of your heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage, grandeur and power from the earth, from men and from the inimite, so long are you young. When the wires are all down and all the cen tral place of your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then are you grown old indeed and may God have mercy on your soul.
