They must not go into the world _without tools to work with_.

Meanwhile the household teems with plans and becomes a veritable dreamland of youthful fervor.
We find that having helped our children into attractive personalities they have become magnets with which to draw about us their comrades.
Thus we hold on to our youth by virtue of our surroundings--creatures of our thoughtfulness concerning "_wedlock in time_." That the fall season is coming has no terrors for us.

There will be the weddings and plannings for new homes _close by_--if we have our say.

And in due course, the grandchildren will come who will favor grandpa and grandma and once again youth knocks at our door.

There will be no dread winter days for us for we have been forehanded--we have a _new crew on board to chase away the cares of old age and infirmities_.
Try how we will there is no way to forestall the operation of the law of compensation.
