THE SUPER RACE

The study Of man and the ways
in which he il Affected by his en-
vironment il one Of the most fas-
cinating Of Ill sciences. Biologists
are united in the belief that the last
fifty years have brought about some
remarkable changes in human be-
ings. The average life span has
been increased fully eighteen years
over that Of century ago, and it il
estimated that the average Ameri-
can is three and half inches taller
than the average fifty years ago. It
is not unusual today to see many
people who are over six feet tall, and
many hotels have had to install
larger beds and longer bathtubs to
supply the new requirements.
The increase in the length Of life
is partly due to the better care Of
infants and children. Infant NOR
tally Of fifty years ago was enor-
nous, and todaJ it has become .
negligible factor. The better un-
derstanding Of the effects Of food
on health has undoubtedly contrib
uted to increased health and physi-
cal development, particularly in
North America.
Many Of the diseases Of malnutri-
ton and wrong feeding are becom-
ing obsole.e. The deaths from tu-
berculosis are decreasing year by
year. Spinal curvature is now al
most unknown. Deaths from ricketts,
and scurvy are inexcusable. Deaths
from acute febrile diseases can be
avoided in almost every instance II
the proper dietetic measures are
employed.
People ere being taught the value
Of regular lives and the benefits Of

possible for US to realize what 1
wonderful world we will have in 4
hundred years from today If pro-
gress continues at the same rate that
the people who are now fifty years

times. Many scientific men now be-
lieve that the average age Of one
hundred years is not impossible. Any
Of the vital organs Of our body are
strong enough to live far beyond
this great age.
At one time the average length Of
life was as low as thirty-eight years.
Now we have reached the average
age Of fifty-eight, and yet our
knowledge Of the care Of the human
body is being increased day by day

today should consider themselves
very fortunate.

BY RODNEY BUTCHER
(NEA Service Writer)

Washington, Sept. 6.-Now that
the boss is back at the headquarters
Of the Republican campaign, things
are pretty sure to be different.
With Herbert Hoover himself re-
assuming the reins, the good people
of Washington will be considerably
surprised if any of his managers
make any more such bone headed
plays as distinguished them in his
absence.
Hoover may not be a great ora
tor, but the story that he isn't q
good politician can now be classed
as fairy tale. It began to look
rather sick, in fact, about the time
the boys were getting set to NOM
mate him at Kansas City. Combin-
ing good political sense with
genius as an executive and an or
ganizer, Hoover is running his own
campaign.
He must have squirmed often dur
ing his western trip as the newspa-
pers and private telephone calls tod
him how his lieutenants were putting
their feet into it back east.
- =
Hardly had he left the capital be-
fore two Of the principal ones, Ma
tional Chairman Hubert. Work and
Senator George Higgins Moses, were
engaged in q bitter row which soon
became public property. It was Moses
who, leaving Works office, was
quoted as saying: "At last they
have found a man who can stop
Hoover"
Then the Hon. Hubert publicly
announced that the real campaign
issue was the tariff. Some folks
thought that was funny, but Hoover
didn't think so a. all. He told the
Hon. Hubert to pipe down and leave
the outlining Of the issues to the
candidate.
Reports from the Coast indicated
that when Mr.. Work went out to SET
his boss he found that Mr.. Hoover
appeared to be convinced Of the su'
perior sagacity Of George Higgin.

But George Higgins himself hae
managed to queer himself with some

MORE WORK PER MAN

Government reports aren't always the most interest
ing reading in the world, but now and then they
tain statements that provoke thought
The Department Of Commerce recently issued re-
port the nations business for the first half of 1928
After pointing out that business conditions good
and that production high, the report made this
amazing statement:
I'm manufacturing the output per worker averaged
about AZ per cent higher in 1927 than in 1919.
That one sentence contains implications Of whole
new social and economic system. It will bear good
deal Of bordering. Mans capacity to make things has
increased enormously The results will be Of incalcula
BILE scope.
