MR. L L. MILLLER says Bis-
hop Selecman was addressing the
physics class in the basement au-
ditorium at NTSC several years
ago. He quoted some scientist who
had said the earth will be frozen
up tight in ten million years. A
freshman boy seemed quite dis-
turbed, and asked the Bishop to
repeat what he said. The student
seemed quite relieved. He said.
"Oh, I thought you said one mil-

The Parker Pen Co. at Janesville, Wis., has junked
the policy of automatic retirement at 65, adopting the
sensible rule that employes may continue to work beyond
that age if they wish and the company agrees. The
president, Bruce Jeffris, said that 65 was popularly ac-
cepted as an appropriate age for retirement, but that
there was no sound reason for arbitrarily decreeing in-
activity at that age or any other. Men vary in physical
endurance and in mental resilience. Mr. Jeffris says that
arbitrary retirement has proved harmful and costly to
his firm, depriving it of the rich experience and ma-
turity of judgment of many seasoned and valuable em-
ployes.
The trend toward employment beyond 65 has risen
steadily. Thirty-three years ago only one man of 65 or
over was employed for every eight below that age. Now
the ratio is one to five, and by 1980 it is expected to be
one to three. Improved health care has lengthened the
average life span and men remain active and fit at ages
which, in the past, would have consigned them to the
easy chair. Americans have a peculiar pride and satis-
faction in work, and to condemn many mature men to
enforced idleness would quickly rob them of interest in
life. We believe that enlightened management will recog-
nize the advantages of retaining men who are willing
and capable, and that retirement standards will become
progressively more elastic.
Nevertheless, it is a wise provision that the decision
to continue rests neither on management alone, nor on
the employe alone, but requires mutual agreement Some
men fail to recognize the deterioration of powers or a de-
veloping inability to escape established ruts in thinking
or performance. For these the pension and disability pro-
visions are desirable. A change of scene and new in-
terests may be the stimuli that will make later life
more interesting than the familiar routine in office or
plant.

a plenitude at friends is the great-
est good in life. Yet. while this
lies wholly within our power to

DENTON BOYS HAVE A habit
of succeeding in whatever they
choose as a profession Many Den-
ton people were gratified to hear
of the continued success of Robert
Lomax in the railroad business. He
has been chosen active vice pres-
ident of three shortline railroads
with which he has been connect-
ed at Muskogee for several years.
Bob gave promise in his Boy Scout
days of the success he is now hav-
ing
Mrs Lomax is the former Louise
Bates, daughter of the late Mr.
and Mrs. J. D. Bates, who lived
on Malone Street for a great ma-
ny years. It seems impossible that
BEb and Louise should have a son
old enough to be in colege; but
Bob, Jr., is a senior in the Uri-
versity of Oklahoma. The other,
son. David, is in high school. Rob.
ert is a son of Mrs. R. P. Lomax,

The new year will be a good year for business
with great opportunities to build new markets, accord-
ing to the Chamber of Commerce of the United States.
True, defense spending will continue to decline as
it has since the end of the Korean war, but tax reduc-
tions and tax eliminations will pump new money into
business. Taxes on personal income dropped an average
of 10 per cent on Dec. 31, and the so-called excess
profits tax expired. During the year beginning next
July, tax changes will add about $7,5 billion to the na-
tion’s buying power.
Another $200 Milion is already on tap, tucked away
in savings accounts. Consumers will spend some of it—
if they like what they see in the market place. In a word,
the customer will be king in 1954. He can pick and
choose.
That means business opportunities. Opportunities
to make better products, and new products with plenty
of sales appeal. These new products will create new
markets, jobs and income.
Another opportunity for increasing business next
year is the household fix-up market, for King Customer
is ready to spend a lot of money on his castle. The fix-
up market, now around $6.6 billion annually, can be
pushed up 30 to 50 per cent, according to estimates in
the construction industry. A University of Michigan sur-
vey shows that interest in home repair is growing
steadily in comparison with interest in spending for
other important items.
The President’s Advisory Committee on Govern-
ment Housing Policies and Programs recognized the im-
portance of the fix-up market. It proposed several meth-
ods of easing credit for household repairs, in a recent
report to President Eisenhower.
Of course the opportunities for new markets do
not mean that present markets are exhausted. Auto
makers say there are 12 million pre-war cars still on the
highways, and 17 million families who do not own even
an old car. Only a little better than half of the Ameri-
can families own television sets.
There is a backlog of needed public works, not
make-work projects, but projects such as new schools
and new and improved streets and highways. At the
recent National Conference on Highway Financing,
sponsored by the Chamber, several speakers pointed out
that we need between $40 billion and $50 billion to put
our streets and highways in shape.
All of these factors, the Chamber is convinced, mean
that 1954 will be a year of opportunity. Business men
can be expected to bring out new, useful products at
reasonable prices, and to bring these products to the at-
tention of buyers through advertising and all the other
methods of marketing that are available.

men who have had full and re-

of life, for he realized that no one
can claim to know life until he
knows all types of men
A. J. CRONIN, a very brilliant

"But, Dr. Crane, many parents
put too much pressure on their
children until the youngsters cheat
to bring home high marks, some-
body may argue.
That is true, but it does not
invalidate the worth of paying for
school marks. That excess pres-
sure is bad, whether or not you
pay for the "A” and "B” and
“C” grades.
Children need money. Paying for
passing marks is one honest and
desirable way to let them earn it
We have done this with our five
children in grammar, high school
and now in college.
Each semester hour of “A” work
in college gets them $15, so if
they have a 5-hour course and
make "a” therein, that's worth
$75.
Each hour of "B" brings them
$10 and each hour of "C” produc-
es $5, so they could theoretically
earn their entire tuition each se-
mester if they'd make straight
"A,” which they don’t-
But this "piece work” rate is
the same as the one we use in
industry quite successfully. It lets
