I Once we got over the initial shock
'of finding in the White House a man
$1,429.6*1' who believed in doing things and not
in simply talking about them, we be-
gan to discover that a lot of the ac-
tion whic h is taking place is rather
drastic. Some of it looks M-ke social- a P*ace ’ll

seems downright revolutionary.

But William James, the great pap-
fchologist. said that most men are
“old fogies" at twenty-five.’
And he was right. Most men av
twenty-five are satisfied with their
jobs. They have accumulated a lit-

The minute a man ceases to giow
no matter what his years, that inlum*

On the other iiand, the really great
men never grow old. Bismark,

work after he was seventy. Titian,
the celebrated painter, lived to be
ninety nine—painting right up tD
