et Readjusted . » - 1 HE MEN who made this continent rlcl in wealth and opportunity did not go about wringing their hands and Q“:-lkmgtli: their boots. They worked— Whet :1‘ going was easy or whether it was hat - For nearly three years too many men: Who themselves have had plenty to eat and to drink, good beds to sleep in and comfortable homes, have spent hours and hours predict- ing hard luck and disaster. , The man who is saturated with gloom spreads i‘ it. Vt/hen he loses his sane, clear-eyed vieW- ‘ point he may seek sympathy, but what he really needs is to be shaken out of an un— healthy frame of mind. And the man who hoards not only robs his family but fails to do his share in promoting normal business and employment of workers. He aggravates the condition which he deplores. Some men need jobs——need them badly. They must be helped. But more men need to get readjusted to conditions as they exist. These men may need to readjust their mode of living or their way of thinking. Worries fester and grow in the dark. They shrivel and vanish in the light. There are times in every man’s life—whether he be strong or weak, brave or cowardly-when he needs the counsel of someone who is un- afraid. And there are many who know that our country has battled through difficult periods and has always emerged stronger than before. Get readjusted. METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY r...a...i=i.
