Italian Trains
Now On Time

Rome. June Pa. P. by Mail.)-
The spirit of discipline which the
Mussolini government brought in
with it is no more concretely illus
trated than on the railroads and in
the telegraph service Of Italy. Italian
trains are now run on time-one can
even set ones watch by them-and
the time of transmission on internal
and foreign kilograms has been re-
duced to one fourth of what it was
before the advent of Italy's young
dictator to power.
The Italian crack trains on the
main trunk lines cover their distances
with minute precision and accord
ing to schedule. The Rome Milan
expresses leave and arrive on the
second. The Rome Naples trains are
equally on schedule. while the service
between Genoa and Trieste, through
Milan and Venice. also records the
same punctuality.
Special policemen do service on all
the lines, and are present on trains
to prevent theft or disorder.

Marry Young to
Live Long Says
Insurance Head

Chicago, July 13.-(by A. P)-One
who desires to live 100 years should
| marry early, refrain from indoor
| dancing, should not be college ath-
lete and be neither rich nor poor, ac-
cording to an address made here
| tonight by Albert NJ. Johnson, presi-
dent of the National Life Insurance
| Company, before several hundred boy
scouts. Mr.. johnson said these
maxims were reached by his COM
pany following statistical computa-
| ton of results from survey on
longevity under modern conditions.
The long list of don'ts" which Mr..
Johnson said the survey suggested in
| order to attain this age contained
/ few "do's," chief among which was
| religion in a true way" Mild exer-
else daily and a straight neck" in
walking, were others.
"Our statistics show. when COM
piled and averaged, that to reach five
score years one should marry early.

be a professional or college athlete or
an actor, should refrain from indoor
dancing and never drink intoxicating
liquors." Mr.. Johnson said. Illus

capped by long and hard hours.
Heart strain is too common in the
athlete.
persons earning between $4,000
and $4,000 a year live longer. This
probably is due to the fact that mod
crate incomes do not give a person
enough for dissipation but are ade-
quate for comfort and sensible living.
BE religious in a true way. Re-
ligious people are happier as rule,
and going to church tends to make
them regular in their habits. Do not
drink liquor and do. not smoke. If
you must, until you are beyond FL
years Of age. One Of the most en-
phatic results of our survey was the
evidence that the practices cannot be
INDUCED in temporarily by enough
people to give you much of a chance
to win.
"Stretch your neck up. Short
necked people are better subjects of
apoplexy. Stretching your neck
gives the blood vessels there less
chance to clog. Take mild exercise
daily, regularly, and not intermit-
tently or .savagely."
