TEACHING AN OLD DOG
NEW TRICKS
The title of this column today
should be, “Good News for Old
People.” But don’t think of an
old person as being Grandpa; it
may be you. In other words, in
the sense used here today, an old
person is one who has reached
the age of 40 or more. Edward
Lee Thorndike, professor emerit
us of Columbia University, in the
field of what age could do com
pared to youth, he became the
best known person in the United
States. In fact, he wrote a book
on Adult Learning.
He demonstrated the utter fol
ly of that old saying, “You can't
teach an old dog new tricks.” He
says: “I don’t know about dogs,
but I do know about human be
ings. You can teach them new
tricks—and they learn them as
fast as the young people do.”
Prof. Thorndike, his mind
made up to prove his theory,
tried an experiment on 465 per
sons. Divided them into three
groups—the 20’s, the 30’s and the
ancient doddering creatures m
I their 40’s.
Then he gave all of them tests
to see how fast and how well
they learned. One of the tests
i was to see how quickly they could
learn to write with the other
1 hand. Another was to see how
| fast and accurately they could
I add figures. In another test he
I learned how long it would take
1 them to commit to memory cer
! tain passages, some poetry, some
j prose of a difficult type.
Well, the score is all in favor
of the doddering old wrecks.
They could learn anything that
the youngsters could; they were
slower, but more accurate. For
instance, the young people could
race through the column adding
faster than the gray hairs, but
when a column was totaled up
by the youngsters it wasn’t as
accurate as when done by the
oldest group.
Homer Croy, in ‘County Cured’
takes up this very point. He
counts it one of the most im
portant lessons he learned in all
his life—that he had misjudged
old people because they Seemed
to do things slowly. To quote:
“Old people, except in instances
where senility has set in, are
just as intelligent as young peo
ple and have all the mental abil
ities of the young. The only dif
[ ference is that old people need
! more time. The one idea has
I changed my attitude completely
I in dealing with old people.”
So the next time you see an
! elderly person, slow of speech,
I hesitant of step, don’t write him
; down as a mental has-been. He’s
: probably just as smart as you
are, but slower on his mental j
toes.
And if you are one of the old
sters, and inclined to rate your
self low, take another lease on
your mental life.

CRIME
There is much being written
and discussed about juvenile de
linquency and the appalling
crime wave sweeping our coun
try.
There are various opinions as
i to its cause, but the juvenile,
angle is blame for parents. In 1
| my estimation, it is due in al
I large sense to the court’s failure i
to impose adequate penalties.
There was a time, in the dim and
distant past, that when a life
■was taken, it meant certain
death for the criminal and cold
i blooded murder was first-degree
I murder, but nowadays the most
heinous crimes receive all kinds
of penalties from six months to
a pat on the back or life impris
j onment. Very seldom the chair.
Recently, in our own state, a I
i woman convicted of poison mur- 1
i der of both parents and husband, :
I either one of which merited the ;
death penalty, was given only a I
life sentence and maybe par- !
doned in time.
i
Recently, a 17-year-old girl
pushed a little 8-year-old bo?
in the river and drowned him on
slight provocation, and was giv
en a full, outright pardon by the:
judge and was loudly cheered by!
the court. No doubt that girl felt |
like a heroine instead of the'
\ criminal she was.
I have read repeatedly of the
i expressed opinion of our foreign
i neighbors who call Americans
j “criminal coddlers.”
The law is supposed to be
I somewhat lenient with criminals
who commit a crime in a pas
sion, but cold-blooded murder,
without provocation, calls for
the death penalty it is a
gross miscarriage of justice when
the sentences are lighter. In th?
case of William Heireps, the
“thrill” murderer, one who was
a star pupil with a fine mind
and knew right from wrong, the
electric chair was cheated of its
rights by the wrong attitude of
the courts.
Our penal institutions arc
overflowing with culprits wh<
failed to get their “dues” and it i
will be more and more until the (
public sees crime in its true light |
and not the fault of some other 1
source. :
No. it’s not always parents who
set “little Willie” in the byways.
