Young Old Men

By Editor

Young Old Men.—It is pitiful, isn't it, to hear men calling themselves old and talking of retiring from active life when they are between fifty and sixty? A well-written letter, full of interest in Bible study, comes to us from a young old man in the Buckeye state. Ill health prevented his attending the great yearly meeting of his state, and he casually remarks, "I rather think I am on the down-hill side." And how old is he?—Only eighty-one past. When the man in the fifties gets there he may thus talk; he has no moral right to do it now. Keep young by keeping the heart young. "With Him is the fountain of life."
