LIVING LONGER

While the method pursued by
DIR. Al B. Savage, of New York,
TO demonstrate that the big men,
of today are living longer than
their historic predecessors of
Greece and Rome is hardly scien-
tihc. it discloses some highly in
teresting facts. Dr. Savage took
a list of fl business and financial
leaders of America and compared
their expectations of life with the
ages at death of an equal number
OF ancient worthless whose lives
are recorded by Plutarch. The
average age OF the Americans is
63.S years and to this is added the
expectation OF life, bringing up
the average to ,4.3. The average
age at death Of the ancients was
55.1. All the Americans in the
list. which includes Armour.
Gary. Eastman. Ford, Kahn.
Morgan. Rockefeller and ScIIwab.
are men of civil pursuits. com
mercial. financial or industrial,
while the category of ancicnts
numbers warriors like Caesar and
Alexander and scholars and
statesmen.
Whatever may be thought Of
the basis of comparison. the CON
illusions of pr. Savage will coin
eide with the general opinion.
The average length of human life
has been increasing through the
centuries. "ln the sixteenth cen
fury the best estimate that is to
be had places the average at 10
years. At the close of the
eighteenth century it was a little
over 80 years and now il has 50
increased that we shall have 10
readiust our definition Of the
length of a generation" In the
list OF Americas living leaders
only two are under 30. land there
are but few OF the others who
would have appeared on such a
list when they were only 90"
The rush and hustle oi modern
competitive business life do not
seem SO inimical to longevity as
the conditions under which the
ancients lived. Great scourges
devastated whole nations. while
diseases with which modern
medical science is able to cope
successfully took their daily toll
OF victims. 1t would be strange
if mankind had not protited BY
the discoveries of Lister. Pasteur.
Roentgen. the CurieS and others
as we'll as by the increased devo-
ton paid to exercise in the open
and other hygienic habits. The
prediction Is made that at least
Is years will be added to the
present average lifes of 30. 1t
does not seem impossible OF at
tainment.

POSTPONED MOTORCYCLE
RACES HELD TOMORROW
Six Riders Will Compete In Spite Of
Two Fires This
Week.

The motorcycle races which were
postponed last Sunday on account of
the protest Of the congregation pres
ent in the morning at the Methodist
church will be held tomorrow after
noon at the fair grounds.
The six riders will compete in spite
of the fact that two of the motor
cycles were damaged by fire this week
Harry Kelley's machine caught fire
while he was driving on East Seventh
St., Saturday afternoon. The Fire
department was called, but the fire
had been extinguished with two pals
of water before the department car
arrived. The other machine owned by
Rufus Pipes of Kellog, Idaho caught
fire later in the afternoon. Both
machines have been repaired and are
in condition to race.
The rains this week have tended
to settle the track, and it is estimated
that some new records will be made.
Local men will be allowed to enter
providing they have had experience
in riding.

VISITORS DAY, JULY IA.

= Visitors Day and the annual Stu
dent Reunion will be held Thursday,
July 14th. This announcement will
answer the question which has been
uppermost, in the minds of hundreds
Of students and alumni, and from the
interest manifested since school
closed last April, the Reunion this
year promises to be fully as success
full as the record-breaker of 1920.
Committees in charge of the arrange
ments have announced that the Re-
union feature of Visitors Day will be
made the, chief feature! OF the occa-
sion. Last year the reunion was over
shadowed &by the enormous crowds
that came to visit the Station and at
tend the program Of the day. The
general public will also be invited
this year but it will largely be con-
fined to parents, friends and neigh
bors of the students and alumni.
The morning will be given over to
an inspection of the experimental
projects and campus improvements
and buildings. Everyone is invited
to bring their picnic dinners and par
take in big campus picnic during
E1the noon. hour, All classes will be
tarranged in groups, each class hav-
! ing it's own picnic This will afford
all class an opportunity to visit and
meet with former classmates. All
friends and relatives are also expect
ed to take part in these class picnics.
The afternoon program will include
addresses Of agricultural interest.
The details Of this program have not
been completed and the speakers will
be announced later. There will be a
meeting Of the alumni association at
4:30 in the afternoon, and there are
many important topics to be taken UP
at this meeting. In the evening will
occur the annual reunion dance in
the Gymnasium. Because of the
crowd, tickets will be given out only
on the morning of the 14th at the in
formation booth on the campus. No
, tickets will be given out after noon
: and admission will be by ticket only.
| This arrangement will be carried out
in order that students and alumni
may be adequately cared for at the
evenings entertainment. Every stud
ent, ex-student and alumnus is invit-
ed to be present on Reunion Day and

ing periods, insufficient rest during
the day, and too many children be-
ing kept on baby rations when they
should have bone making foods.
The doctor emphasized the import
ance of diet in young children, advis-
ing that some bone making foods be
given in addition to milk as soon as
a baby is six months old. He said that
both in the good attendance at the
clinics and in the interest shown by
the mothers, Stevens county gives
evidence of the baby clinics of the
past years. Some fathers were pre-
sent and gave proof that clinics were
affair.
Only two cases of acute ricketts,
we're found. One case of blindness
was discovered, one acute eye infec-
tion and two cases of threatened tu-
berculosis. There we're no acute NAL
ricketts, cases though many children
were found on the verge of malnutri-
tion, ricketts, and if food was not
changed soon.
Stevens county is very fortunate in
it's county nurse, DR.. Groebner told a
member of the Public Health Associa-
tion, for Miss Labrie has the reputa-
tion of being one of the most eff
cient and progressive county nurses
in Minnesota. He prophesied that the
county would soon be in the front
line in Public Health work if the in
terest in health work continues to be
as keen as it is now.
No small part of the success of the
clinics is due to the assistance of the
clinic chairmen according to Miss
Labrie.

Asleep At The Wheel

Staple World:-At an early hour
last Monday morning Clement Thomp
son was driving his car near Hacken-
sack when he discovered a car coming
towards him, the wobbliness of which
Didn't. look good to him. He turned
away out to let it pass when he no
ticed that the driver was asleep at
the wheel and the car was simply
following the ruts in the road. When
the car was about to pass he gave
his horn a loud honk and the driver
walked up with jump. Beside him
sat a woman with her head resting
on his shoulder. She was also asleep,
as were two or three more women on
the back seat. The wonder is that
the car was not upset.
