By MILDRED MORRIS.

ORMOND BEACH, Fla. April s.-John
d. Rockefeller plans to live 100 years.
The world is so full of interest, a man
must live a long life to get 1t ALL" he
says. Here's the Rockefeller recipe for
living to ripe old age;
Don't worry; eat simply and mod
erately; live a Christian life and play
golf"
By following this regime. he says, he
hopes to round out the century mark.
The Standard Oil magnate is watching
the career Of Henry Ford Mention Of
the automobile maker who is said TO have
supplanted him as the richest man in the
world. arOuses his deep interest. He ex-
pressed admiration for the Detroit multi
millionaire.
Always keep plenty OF money on
hand" is the advice the great oil fnancier
once sent the younger money king.
The two most picturesque financial
figures IN America, Rockefeller and Ford.
have never met.
The man whose riches have made him
a figure legend on two hemispheres talks
little Of money. Wealth can not buy
happiness, he will tell you.
Money brings happiness only when
spent usefully and wisely" he says.
Wealth should be regarded merely as
an instrument to make the world bet
ter and happier"
Golf. the birds. the flowers and the
trees in his yard-these are subjects on
which the great John d. almost wakes
garrulous, forgetting to be thrifty Of

The portrait Of the Standard Oil king,
painted by the famous Sargent, shows the
