'IAMBS WHITFORD. of Cottage
Grove, dies at the age of 103,
which means that he was born in
1827, or about the time when the
railroad and the telegraph were be
ginning to be big factors in the
growth of this country.
In his long life, he saw many
changes. '
yHE average child born today
will not live as long, in all
probability, as Sir. Whltford; Life
spans of a century have been rare
in the past, and even with the great
. advances in. medical science which
at 3 being made they are apt to be
rare in the future, at least the' near
future.
But the average child born today
will see GREATER changes than
were seen by Mr. Whltford.
f"VNE of these changes, Governor
Roosevelt, of New York, tells
us, will be unemployment ' insur
ance. t That is to say, the time will come
when men who have no jobs, and
therefore have no EARNING POW
ER, will still have INCOMES to
tide them over the period of unem
ployment. ALREADY we are considering
" seriously the Idea of old age
pensions, by which is meant that
when men and women reach the

to earn a living they will be en
tilled to receive an income suf
ficient to sustain them.
