Never before,i even in the Elizabeth an period, when things were notori- ously loose. was there such an em
 phasis placed upon sex. Venus, the goddess of sex, never had more fol- lowers. There is a perfect orgy of sex, in movies, plays and literature. We are steeped~ in it. Sex experi

In Canada, where, by the way, these centenarans
are surprisingly numerous, they put the honored
cents picture in the paper along with story about

what his political stand has been how regularly he has
voted, and so on.
Such photograph and story appeared in the
Toronto Globe recently telling of the life of 1OO year
old Joshua Anderson and his family. His wife is now
80 years old. His mother lived to be 95. His wife's
grandfather attained 101 years Mr.. Anderson has
voted regularly for 76 years. He and his wife have
been married 70 years. They have six children, 20
grandchildren and % great grandchildren
Longevity seems to run in good many Canadian
families, among people who live normal active lives
And the strange part of it is that other Canadians take
1t so for granted, simply honoring these old people
without inquirng to whether or not they are
vegetarians. Maybe that's one reason WHY thev live

DIR. COOK AGAIN

DR.. Frederick Cook and the famous North Pole
controversy have been considered settled Now the Is
bobs up again.
Amundsen, whose integrity nobody has ever i'm
pugned, who discovered the South POIe and nearly
reached the North fOe by arpane, says he has read
the accounts OF both and IOund them much alike
and about equally convincing tie seems rather to sug-
geS that Cook reached the Pole than that teary did
not
Cook naturally takes advantage OF that statement,
issuing OF his in which he says that recent
explorations the Arctic by Macmillan and Amund-
sen, have dlsproved many Peary observations.
Il note these facts IN review he says, with no
intention to underrate PeaTy worthy EFFORTS but to
indicate that pioneer working under great dittIcul
ties subject to inaccuracies IN his observations.
1T must be remembered that | was the first
report the physical conditions at the Pole, and that all
my work since has tended to confirm my reports.
Rear Admiral Schiey the first to point out this
phase of the rival claims According to Scheys
views, Cook either Cook Peary, both, reach
ed the place and described the conditions
This controversy will never be settled to every
bodys satisfaction. Most people, presumably, viii
continue to believe that Peary reached the Pole and
Cook didn't A large number of Americans, however,
especially those who have talked with Cook heard
him speak, convinced that if Cook never really at
tained the goal, he thought he did.
In any case, Cooks book the subject is worth
reading, work of imagination if not Of science
There Is poetic glow IN 1t that is in the works
of more scientific explorers.
