Whenthe pro-; ,cial and federal

It struck erne then that young people
• shouldn't get caught up in. gamble and
.greed at a young age. They will be
forced to deal with it when they get
older.
Now is the time when they shouldbe
concerned about where to spend a sum

Most adults' willagree it would be
nice to 'revert to childhood, even fora
short. whsle.
I haven't been an adult for all that
long but there are times 1 wish 1 was
five again, running barefoot through the
creek, catching minnows and watching
the neighbor' boys catch frogs and do
unspeakable things_ to them.
Being a 'grown up is
hard work. In fact, I don't like
most of the things adults have
to deal with: taxes, decisions,
car repairs. The list goes 'on.
The trick is to be an adult without
losing your ability to act like --a child.
(Be sure you do this .at an appropriate
time, notin church' or at work.)
I've' beenreading a book that sug-
gests several ways to maintain the child
in all:.of,us. The•author says climb a
tree, •go dancing where no one knows
you and let loose, grin or chuckle for
no apparent reason. Try one or make up
your own. It's a lot of fun, trust me,
But remember, there are -people out
there who won't understand and think
you're nuts.
Let them. Chances' are they are : fol-
lowing,the rules tooclosely anyway..
