Florida Monday. return . , ... are to about to take a ' at he is improving in health, world and (By William Lyon Phelps) At the age of 32, Jonathan Swift wrote the following: “Resolutions when I come to be old: 1. Not to marry a young woman. 2. Not to keep young company, un less they desire it. 3. Not to be peevish, or morose, or suspicious. 4. Not to scorn present ways, or wits, ot fashions, or men, or war, etc. 5. Not to he fond of children. 6. Not to tell the same story over and over to the same people. 7. Not to be cove tous. 8. Not to neglect decency or cleanliness, of fear of falling into nastiness. 9. Not to be over severe with young people, but give allow ances for their youthful follies and weaknesses. 10. Not to be influenced by, or give ear to, knavish tattling servants, or others. 11. Not to be too free of advice, or trouble any but those who desire it. 12. To desire some good friend to inform me which of these resolutions 1 break or neg lect, and wherein, and reform accordingly. 13 Not to talk too much, nor of myself. 14. Nol to boast of my former beauty, or strength, or favor with ladies, etc. 15. Not to hearken to flatteries, nor conceive I can be beloved by a young woman. 16. Not to be positive or opinionative 17. Not too set for observing all these rules, for fear I should observe none.” Swift died at the age of 78; so far as 1 can find out, he lived up to these resolutions with commendable con sistency, except one: His friend, Dr. Sheridan, was sufficiently indiscreet to remind him that he was becoming too parsimonious. Swift resented his criticism. and it spoiled their friendship. Although Swift was a pessimist, a cynic, and a misanthrope, these reso lutions contain much wisdom; so much, in fact, that a faithful adher ence to them would save most old men much suffering and humiliation. I read them first when I was a boy and they produce a profound im pression; now that I am in a position where they fit my case,I believe them to be good medicine, bitttter but wholesome. Swift must have been bored horribly by many old men, ot he must have observed many old people behaving in a silly fashion, to have written down these rules with such emphasis. 1 and 2. “Crabbed age and youth cannot live together,” said Shake speare; the fpw exceptions do no more than prove the rule. Many old people suffer because they fear that young people do not desire their company. The solution is for old peo ple not to allow their happiness to be dependent on young folks, but to have either company of their own ago or intellectual resources which will make them mentally indepen dent. I have taught young people for 40 years, hut although I am very fond of them I prefer the society r.f people of my own age. If I were trip around the needed than in the year 1929. 5. I would change this, so it would read, “Not to fondle children.” A man with a bushy beard can terrify babies. “I suppose you have all heard tins before, hut—” then why tell it? 7. Especially of the health, vigor and activity of younger men. 8. Switt was himself almost fa natically clean, it is a disgusting signt to benuid old men wno me careless oi uieir clothes and appeur- anee, as tnuugngoid age gave one tne privilege to appear in public with rue remains ox me lust meal on tne coat, waist coat, and shirt. 9. deserve tne ways of the dog anu learn wisuom. Tne dog allows children to pud his tail, and bother mm in many ways; pot because ne uses it, but because he knows chil dren have no sense, it is useless to expect that children and young peo ple will think and act luce middle aged men and women; wny be irct- lui when they are simply running true to form Y 10. One must remember that slan der is of no value only as a self revelation, never an accurate de scription. The recoil of that particu lar gun is greater tnan tne dis charge. 11. Every person loves to give ad vice and no one loves to take it. the mother says to the chilli, “Now Freddy, don’t forget to put your rubbers on!” to which Freddy re plies, “Huh!” Then when Freddy is 76 years old, his granddaughter says 'Now, Grandpa, don’t forget to put your rubbers on!” to wihch the grandparent replies “Huh!” It is a good tiling not to foice one’s opinion on others unless they ask for it; one’s professions and creed will he judged by one’s life, anyway. 12. Ah, that requires the very grace of God. This kind comes only by prayer and fasting. 13. 14. Many an old man likes to have others think that he was in his prune a devil cf a fellow. This parti cular vanity is hard to eradicate. Even in the moment of Lear’s heart breaking and shattering grief over the death of his daughtter Cornelia, ho found time to boast of his former powers. 15. 1 say it not cynically, but in all seriousness: There is no one who cannot be successfully flattered, provided the flattery be applied with some skill. We have at the core such invincible egotism that we not only listen greedily to flattery, but wh it is far worse, we believe it! 16. An overbearing, domineering, dogmatic manner in conversation is abominable in persons of any age; when old people behave in this fash ion, and it is not resented by the young, it should really all the more humiliate the old. For such acqui esconce means that the old man fiasn’t any sense, anyhow. 17. Know thyself. Ulysses showed hi-, wisdom in not trusting himself. A Yale undergraduate left on his door a placard for the janitor on which was written. “Call me at 7 o’clock on which was written, “Call me at 7 o’clock; it is absolutely necessary that I get up at 7. Make no mistake. Keep knocking until I answer.” Un der this he had written: “Try again ar, 10.” THE ROSE OF THE SOUTH ~~ By Denis A. McCarthy, LL. D. Written for the Southern Club 0 f Boston by Denis A. McCarthy, 1,1, D.. one of the eurliest friends of the Catholic Laymen's Association of Georgia, for which he has lectured in this state, und read by the author at the annual Rose Dinner of the Sou- them Club at Boston June 6, 1929' O Rose of the South! You are bloom ing today With a beauty triumphant o’er death and decay. You are showing the world”that the Southland can rise From the gloom of the past with a smile in her eyes. In the depth of your heart there’s a dew drop deep-hid— Tis the thought of the deeds that the fore-fathers did When they wrestled your freedom from those who would dare Keep the Rose of the South in the vale of despair. You are blooming today as you bloomed when the blue Of your own southern heaven first bent above you, And we hail you, and bless, with a feeling that glows The spirit of Dixie that lives in the Rose! 0 Rose of the South! There were .-days when you dropped, When the tempest of wrath on your sunny land swooped, When your friends fell in battle, your name on their lips. And the sun of the Southland went dark in eclipse. But those days are long past, and the sun shines again On a land still renowned for its chivalrous men, On a land that still rings with the song and the mirth Of the fairest and best of the daugh ters of earth. Of a land that is proud to be bank in the fold Where the flag of the nation files high as of old. And the flower of the Northland in love ever grows Entwined with the sweetness ami grace of the Rose. So, here’s to the bonnie bright Rose that has sprung From the sod and the soil which the poets have sung. From the sod that is drenched with the blood of the brave. From the soil that is sacred with many a grave. May the Rose of the South never fade from our sight! May the soul of the South never swerve from the right! May the cause of the South be the the cause of the rest— The cause of the North and the East and the West! The cause of the nation, thrice tried and reflne’d, The cause of the people, the cause of mankind. And if ever we stand face to face with our foes, May we stand with the men from the land of the Rose! When a man seeks good he has not far to go; it is already within him- 1 self. MRS.
