Which Speed Is Yours?
by GARRET SMITH

change is only part of our inner time.
The important inner-time factor in later
life lies in keeping our minds receptive,
alert, active and interested in life.
When the body reaches maturity the
power of the mind should still be grow
ing, with it's height still far ahead. JUS
tice Holmes was writing Supreme Court
decisions in his nineties, at the very sum-
NIT of his mental gor.
We can't all speed up our inner time
by Mediterranean trips. We don't need
to. Two young suburbanites of my ac-
quaintance once took similar, rather
monotonous jobs in the same city Office.
Brown kept his nose in his work, doing
it faithfully and well. Jones, though
equally efficient, managed to find time
for hobbies, social life, civic affairs, good
books, plays, music. In inner time Jones
lived three days to Browns one. His
activity also kept him alert and physic-
ally 6t Both men are fifty now. Brown
still has the same job and is an old man
waiting to be pensioned. Jones is still
young man and is manager of the Office.
He has his eye on the presidency of the
company and cherishes no notion of re-
firing for thirty years yet.
The earlier in life we form these active
mental habits the better chance we have
of beating the clock when it tries to
speed up on our maturing years. Balance
your hardening arteries with avocations,
your declining metabolism with social
and civic activities, your halting cell
growth with reading and conversation
and travel. Fill your days full. Match
each gray hair with new idea. Speed up
the true time of your inner life. Live long
by the day and let the years 60 hang.
Evening star., 1938-03-27

//l'M PLANNING to spend year in
Europe next month" the dean of
the bar of one of our eastern
states told me on the eve of sail
ing for Mediterranean tour. He laughed
at my look of surprise. "You're thinking
of the fellow who remarked that he
spent week in the country one Sum
day." he said. 81 don't mean I'm going
to be so bored that month'll seem like
a year. There's big difference between
time that drags because you're tearing
yourself to pieces with boredom or worry
and time that fingers pleasantly because
you're packing it full of new experiences
and ideas.'
This veteran lawyer, still in active
practice at eighty-three, hit on way OF
beating a game that most of us think un-
beatable. As we mature we all become
painfully aware of the speeding up of the
years. We resent it bitterly. The desire
for long life, the longing for eternal
youth, are universal human passions. In
childhood each day seems endless. To
youth year stretches out in limitless
vista. But with middle age, day, week,
month and year run together at ever
increasing speed. As an old farmer once
said to me, 81 don't more'n git dressed
Monday mornin' than it's time to take
my Sattaday-night bath" Why this
tragic acceleration of our brief life cur
rent? Can we stopit?
DR.. Alexis Carrel in his thought
provoking book "Man, the Unknown"
offers scientific explanation and cure. :
Hede6nes two kinds of time. One is solar
time, an unvarying standard to measure
outer events. The other is inner time,
which marks the physical and mental
Copyright. 1885, Ustted Newspapers Masaxine Corporst

changes within ourselves, the time by
which we unconsciously measure our
days.
While solar time moves on at steady
rate, our inner time, that is, the rate of
change in our bodies and minds, varies
continually. The young child grows per-
ceptibly each week. Days are packed
with new words, new games, new explo-
rations of his world. Sober sun time
seems slow thing to this racing tempo
of his. 1t becomes only little less SO dur
ing adolescence and college days. Then
bodily development slows through mid
die life. The mind tends to become fixed.
New ideas and concepts are met less and
less frequently. Sun time races past inner
time faster and faster.
It's like man riding passenger train
at sixty miles an hour and overhauling
a long freight pounding ahead at
steady thirty miles, The freight seems to
the passenger to be standing still as he
shoots by so fast he can hardly count its
cars. Then, as the passenger train begins
to slow down for the next station, the
freight seems to be going faster. Slowly
the freight gains, until at last it outraces
the passenger train. But the freight,
which is sun time, hasn't altered its
steady pace. 1t is only the passenger
train that has slowed.
Is it possible, by taking thought, to
restore for our maturer years some meas
ure of the lingering and apparently end
less golden days of childhood DR.. Carrel
believes we can do it by acquiring men
tai habits that will keep our inner time
speeded up, keep the passenger train
running at top speed to the end, so that
the freight can never overhaul US. Bodily

AFlNE American patriot, Andrew
Furuseth, slipped out of life the
other day. He was called the Abe
Lincoln of the sea. He fought for
safe shipping and the develop
ment of American shipping for
something like sixty-hve years.
He had philosophy for this So
called machine age:
Safety depends on men. Skilled
men are better than the best of
machinery. If they want safety at
sea, they must maintain and raise
the standards of the men who
work the ships. Skill is the SUI
preme thing in civilization"
If HISTORY repeats itself, Tiah
Dewitt, the author Of ct Tall
Twelve" in this issue, will have
busy time today. A few weeks ago
we ran another tale by her called
"Camera Face" which was also
illustrated by a cover photograph
ofalovely girl. Itwas elovestory
of one of those charming young
things whose beauty, in adver-
tisements, helps to sell everything
from cigarettes to steam shovels.
The appearance of the story
and the cover shattered Tiah
Devitt's Sunday calm in a way we
never expected. Sunday" she
wrote US, eve had kilograms from
Portland, Los Angeles, Chicago,
Baltimore and Cleveland, and all
day the phone rang frantically
mostly calls from unattached
males who wanted to meet the
model on the cover"
There'll never be a surplus of

MEANS ACCUSED
IN Indy AFFAIR
BY MRS. M'LEAN
Had Guilty knowledge
Of Crime She Says

Col. Charles A. Lindbergh knew
and approved of the steps being
taken by Mrs. Evalyn Walsh Nc
Lean. famed Washington social
leader and owner of the Hope
Diamond, to obtain the return OF
his kidnapped son.
And yet, despite the fact that
her efforts to obtain the safe re
lease of the baby have cost her
far more than 100000, he has
yet to do so much as write her
q note Of thanks.
That was revealed today for the
first tine by Mrs. Mclean, whose
column My Say" is a daily
feature in The Washington Times,
in the first of a series of articles
on why l Am Still Investigating
the Lindbergh Case published
in the current issue of Liberty
Magazine.
ACCUSES MEANS
In the article Mrs. Mclean
states that she is still hopeful
that there will be complete solu-
ton of the crime. She threw a
bombshell by stating:
Il believe that CASTOR Means
actually had guilty knowledge OF
the kidnapping of the Lindbergh
baby"
Means, once a Department of
Justice operative, active in the
Harding administration and later
co-author of a sensational book,
THE Strange Death of President
Harding" is now serving prison
sentence for mulcting Mrs. Nc
Lean out of 100000 with which
he was to ransom the kidnapped.

what was going on all the time"
Mrs. Mclean reveals. Before
gave CASTOR Means as much
as a scent piece, the father OF
the missing boy was told in de-
tail what the notorious Means
seemingly reasonable plans were,
and who and what Means was"
After receiving this informa-
ton, Colonel Lindbergh sent word
to Mrs. Mclean through relative
to go ahead with her plans. She
added:
To-day I do not possess so
much as a note of thanks from
Colonel Lindberg for my pains"
HOPE DIAMOND PAWNED
In carrying out her efforts for
return of the baby, Mrs. Mclean
revealed that she was forced to
pawn the famous Hope Diamond
to get the necessary funds.
Mrs. Mclean was motivated to
assist in obtaining the return of
the baby, she revealed, because of
threats and attempts to kidnap
her own son, VinSon, who later
was killed by an automobile.
