I say this with a high degree of certainty because I have so often experienced it myself. I think I will always want to number some young people among my acquaintances. That's one way I hope to stay young and live longer.

'If you adopt a giving attitude and begin to give yourself to the older people at the gathering, you are likely to find, I think, that the hours are not so boring. ;rhis may take some 'effort on your part. For some conversationstarters, try asking one of the old folks about dating customs in the 1940s or 1930s. What did they do for fun then? What were the popular dances? How long did a boy and girl date before they got married?· And so on. One of your aunts or uncles might enjoy a game of checkers or Pente or backgammon. And they might be more grateful than you know for being invited to playa game with you. . And what of your cousins? Are they really as boring as you seem to think? Or have you merely failed to make sufficient effort to get to know them? Might you adopt a more giving, caring attitude toward at least one of them? It might be the start of a fine and lasting friendship. Send questions and comments to Tom Lennon, 1312 Mass. Ave. N.W. Washington, D.C. 20005.
