US FOR D01NQ. Senor Louis J. Abitia, Mexican lec turer and philosopher, has come into quite a bit of publicity by announc ing a new scheme of longevity. He says man can live 400 years just as easily as he now manages to' exist through his allotted 3-score and ten All one must do to attain the modern Methuselah age is to eat nothing but vegetable food, chiefly raw rice and oats. The senor seems to have overlook- ed the fact that the horse lives upon t a diet consisting largely of raw oats a few ears of raw com and such ve getable roughage as hay and straw will give the body. The horse's bill of fare, is according to the doctrine of Abitia long life, is ideal for 400 years. But whoever heard of a horse living a tenth of those years. At 20 Dobbin is a likely candidate for the Pasture of Aged Equines. Until some human being has lived 400 years on raw oats and rice the rest of mankind will continue doubt ing the human ability to do so. And why should the human being want to live four centuries? ' Espec ially on & diet of raw oats and rice! Can you imagine a more monotonous existence than one founded upon the absence of pie, cake, tederloin steak, roast beef, fried chicken, ham and eggs, and wheat cakes for breakfast? No, friends and fellow citizens, the real goal in human life should not be the mere selfish collection of days, months and years. Life is intended for more than mere living. It is given us for Doing.. What if we lived 400 years and at the end that was the sum total of our achi -vement living 400 years? Of whrt l er-ef.t would that be to the world? None, absolutely Cnone. It were better to have lived 40 years of a life crowded with achievement than to have drapc! through 400 years of an existence dedicated to keeping life in the body, History has written down name af ter name of men who in less than 40 years did more, and greater things than Methuselah accomplished in all his hundred of years. This docs not mean that we should make no endeavor to live long; as Ion.-; as we are useful to the world. Rather does it mcn that our goal should be something morn and higher than the accumulation of yea.-s. . There are men who have lived 40O years in less than 80. These are the men who have quickened the stream of progress, civilization, democracy, humanity, justice, which has carried a world from the darkness of Meho- selah's time to the brightness of our day. 1 ! t Thf busv bee is no busier than Father has to be these times of H.

The other day we noticed the abundance of "Finishers Want ed." Idea! We yanked out the mental oil can, got the thought foundry working and made a discovery. This nation lacks finishers. Americans are commencers. We're always "starting something" in this land of the free. Infant ideas,spring up by the million but few reach ma- turity. Before they attain their m& jority,we drop the majority of them Before they take a practical form we discard them for new ones. The mortality rate among ideas is way up. Only a few lucky ones live to grow beards. It's simply because we're a nation of starters in need of more finishers. We speak commer cially. Our military reputation speaks for itself. Stay with it, when you get your big inspiration When limitations loom up before your business, don't make a change make a determina tion to overcome the limitations an stick till you do. I The minister's a joiner, the presM dent's a cabinet-maker let every man be a finisher! FARMERS' WEEK OPENS DECEMBER 29TH END 3RD.
