The spirit of man and woman is always young in Spring.

You long for new scenes for new clothes for new surroundings. A tradition, old as civilization, warns us that if we don't share in this newness, we will suffer through the year from a feeling of defeat, of bitterness, of frustration, of old age creeping upon us prematurely. Now is the time to buy something new for the house for yourself for those around you. Now is the time to plan ahead for a vacation for a trip, no matter how short a distance it may be away from home for a car, a boat, or perhaps new fishing tackle. It is a stirring time, this Spring; and the advertisements are full of interesting news of things you need.
