Work put upon all employees is
greater. The physical load on the backs

The census Bureau gives facts about
SIX Western States showing that this
country is prosperous. Iowa's value is
more than ten thousand million dollars
and average per capita is $4,274. Or
egon's average is $4,182. The combin-

Professor Kammerer, professor of
b:ology-which means the science of
llfe-in the University of Vienna, says
that the problem is not to make the
body live longer, but to make the
br ain remain young for longer period
Therein Professor Kammerer spoke

full" A human being is useful while
the brain is young, before it sets like
concrete and refuses to take new i'm
pressions. Once the mental concretei
is set, tine sooner the body goes back
INTO the ground and the spirit is set
free to start over again in a younger
brain, the better. Not older bodies.
but younger brains is what civilization
needs.
