You hear them, as I have sigh and reminisce of the days of Ariemus Ward and James Whitcomb Riley and Uncle Joe Cannon. You hear them curse the speed of the modern generation; you hear them chastise the youth for no longer reading Dickens; you hear them boasting about their remarkable powers of endurance even at the age of 81 and 79 and 73.
