say that it never stems to mcfalse to be proud of having brought up one's children if One has done the best one could for them All of us' as we look back can see many mistakes that we made and we may wish that we could change the way we did things when we were In our twenties- But that is out of the question If we loved our children and did the best we knew at the time all we can hope for is that41 we are blessed with grandchildren we may besbli to help a little out of the wisdom which the years have brought us It may be posSiblewhen the children who took up so much our time and tlioight

both In city and rural treaso just because' they bad free time to undertake a number of little civic church or philanthropic that none of the younger women felt they bad the time to accomplish I will give you an example I know of a retired school teach- er who is active as treasurer for a fund in her village from which monefls loaned to students who could not quite cover their ex- penses It fell to this woman's lot 1 to loolointo each case She be- came interested in the young peo- ple kept hi touch with them watched them not only through their college days but through their first jobs' She saw them repay the money they had borrowed and go Ahead with their careers perhaps into married life For that teacher the little job she undertook with- out pay has brought her endless She also has found 'jobs In the neighborhood that could bring her In small sums of money now and then' I think one can multiply the number of middle-aged people who are doing such things So I would urge all those who find themselves facing the same kind of frustration and despair because their main object in life seems to have come to an end to realize that new interests can be created and life can be kept
