In 1818 the Swiss partly adopted, the 1'. S. form of government with : a congress but no president who has any actual authority or power. ' There is a president of the Swiss' I seven-member "cabinet." "But he has no body guard. . . i We would not want to have a presi-j dent that anyone would want to shoot." Swiss congressmen are paid 512 a day and if a congress! man is not in session by 8 a.m. he gets no pay for that day. j The speaker summarized Switz erland's position as a rich country j as the result of hard work, free dom and thrift. Switzerland buys many finished products from the I 1'. S. and Americans spend great sums of money in tourist-trade. One difference between the Vnit ed States and Switzerland is that "we have radio and TV without commercials in Switze viand." "But I think people of the world have more in common than differ ent." he injected. Try as he might, (la tier could not get around the characteristic that Americans associate with his country yodchng. He described the impression of "cowhevders in the hills as they shout their happi ness in very primitive sounds, giv ing exuberance lo their feelings." State Representative John Am acher, a native countryman of Gauer's, introduced the speaker. FOR RENT POWER LAWN ROLLER CAN BE USED FOR PAVING BLACKTOP LANSING-OLIVER 847 S.

He observed his 83rd birthday by parachuting 2,500 feet into the Hud son River. While in his early 80s, he still piloted his own plane and enjoyed fast games of tennis. He spurned medicines, whisky, tobacco and white bread, and avoided doctors. It was his regular habit to go without food tor one day a week, frequently fasting as long as two weeks but drinking a lot of water during these periods. A native of Missouri, he launched his career by teaching physical culture at the age of 18. He started publishing a health booklet on a regular basis, which grew into Physical Culture magazine. Then he branched out in the publishing field with other magazines far re moved from physical culture. His first and second marriages, lo Marguerite Kelly and Mary Wil liamson, respectively, ended in di vorce. He was estranged from his third and last wife, Mrs. Jonnie Lee.
