SERVICE

Seldom is an opportunity given a
brother to corrolate and describe the
life of such character as that of the
late Rev. Father John T. Durward.
His brother Wilfred has admirably
fulfilled this mission in the book "A
Life of Service The great charm of
the book lies in the intimate treatment
of the life and work of Father John,
as he was affectionally called 1t deals
with the youthful years, the brother,
the son, the friend, the author, the
artist and last but not least the priest.
The tribute of brother to brother is
told in an unusual and very original
way. 1t touches the depths in one who
has known brother. The tribute to
the son is not less beautiful and the
tribute to the priest is. worth the
study and digestion fall, whether in
terested in the lamented Father John
or any other priest Of God This box
will be of interest and give pleasure to
the thousands who visit Durwards Glen
every year and to those who knew
Father John Durward it will be held
as a remembrance ALI in all it is a
delightfully."- readable book with a touch
of originality all it's own, and charm

DEATH RATE IN THE PRIME OF
LIFE

The census records show that i'll
the period of life when man is sup
posed to be in his prime the death rate
mounts rapidly. For example, at 40,
the death rate among white males in
the cities is more than three times
what it is at the age of 20, and the
lowest death rate is found at the age
of twelve, From then onward it mounts
with increasing rapidity. All this
means that even in a fairly long life
time period the exuberant vitality,
when man is in command of full ply
steal reserves, is very brief. It is this
situation with which I quarrel and
which offers a real appeal for scienti-
fic and sociological effort, rather than
the mere prolongation of life cycle.
Unless we can lift the physical handi-
caps that are now imposed upon us
as age advances, there would be some
logic in the proposal that has been
made-that life be shortened as to it's
later stages. What we must vigorously
combat is the all to common medical
attitude towards this problem, the dis
position to regard the defects and
impairments at each advancing decade
as normal to the time of life" They
are never normal. any more than the
former death rate in the canal zone
was normal, and to set up such stand
ards is to bar the way to scientific adj
yancement Eugene Lyman Fisk in
