Too bad, Henry Ford and Thomas
A. Edison cannot live to be as old
as Methuselah, who died at 969
years.
Edison, in his rs years, has given
the world many valuable inventions,
including phongraph and mean
descent electric light.
Ford, nearing SO, has started
tremendous peaceful revolution in
manufacturing methods and labor
capital relations.
Both of these mental giants will
Gle before they realize and develop
their full powers. Give them 1000
years of life and they'd probably
