JOHN D. CALLS
HIS LONG LIFE
AMIRACLE

WOOD, N. j.. July g
U.N.SO for blessings
bestowed on him, John D. Rookie
feller, celebrating his ninty-seventh
birthday anniversary today, said
his good condition Of health is
simply a miracle"
In a message to the world, the
oil Millionaire said:
Everybody Is good to me and
1 send them all my cordial
thanks. have no words to ex-
press my gratitude both for all
their kindly attention and for
my own good will to mankind.
My good condition Of health is
simply q miracle to me and l
am grateful for the unusual
blessings that have come to me
In all my life"
Quietly, he observed his birth
day anniversary in the SecluSion
Of his summer estate near Lake
wood.
John d." it was said at the
estate, is in good health consider
ing his advanced age. He was ex-
pected to forego his customary au-
tomobile ride within the environs
of his estate because of hullabaloo
occaSioned in press circles by the
arrival Of another birthday.
Has Birthday Cake
His Swedish cook has baked a
birthday cake and the genial
John D." no doubt will partake
q piece of it, but chances are 100
to that no newSpaperman or
photographer will see him indulge
in the luxury. He has nothing
against the press, but he deems
it advisable to keep them at a
respectful distance on occasions
such as came about today.
The fact that Rockefeller is now
only three years away from the
100 mark has aroused no little
comment in medical circles.
Strange as it may seem, the con-
senSuS of medical experts is that
chances fol a man of 81 living on
to 100 are poor. yet the learned
doctors, reS lizing the careful at
tention John D." pays to his
health, say it is "anybody's guess"
whether he will live to the century
mark or beyond.
Gives Up Golf
Rockefeller long since has
given up all forms of athletic
activities, including golf, his for
mer favorite pastime. A few
years back he was down to few
holes of golf a day but now he
has given it up entirely. He has
reached the stage where all forms
Of exercise are taboo.
It has been Rockefeller'S Gus
tom to spend his winters iii Or
mond Beach, Fla, and his sum-
merS either at Lakewood or at
his other summer estate at Po-
cantico Hills, near Tarrytown,
N. Y. This year he came di-
rectly from Florida to Lakewood
and he has given no indication
Of proceeding to Tarrytown.
