MUCH of the difficulty in making adequate provision for old-age pensioners arises from the .n supported belief that an employee's efficiency de-Oriorates rapidly after thage of 60 or so. In other ,'oi-ds, there are more people getting along in years vho have to be taken care of by the government han is necessary. Moreover, many of them on the helf are probably just as unhappy about the situa-ion as the taxpayers. While it is beyond dispute that physical powers lot-line as age advances, there is no proof to be ound anywhere that mental faculties follow the ume course. In fact, the latest scientific evidence tiggests just the reverse. The saying that you can-rot teach an old dog new tricks seems to contain Oss truth all the time. After extensive study, the Institute of Psychological Research at Columbia University has .-oncluded that intellectual power does not change from about 20 to beyond 60. In experiments on teaching industrial skills it was found that, if anything, the older people had a slight edge because of the experience they could bring to bear on the subject. Their only handicap was their own doubt about their learning capacities. With industrial equipment becoming more and more automatic, there is less reason why the physical limitations of age should be a consideration. Some companies are recognizing this, much to their profit. In one plant of Detroit's Chrysler Corporation there is a division where, the workers' average age is 60, and some of them are over 80. To conserve the wealth of intelligence among its scientists, the General Electric Company has a policy of hiring tliose who are "over-age" back on contract after retirement. ; A waste of human ability is the greatest waste of all. It will increase the country's productiveness and thereby help employment as a whole if Canadians change "retirement at 65" to read "retirement at discretion." MEN'S SHOES Heavy duty for work.

There will always be in Canada a place for a party whose main interest is to keep Canada as a loyal and vital member of that strange world cluster of nations which comprise the British Commonwealth.
