WANT TO LIVE
400
LIFE IS INTENDED FOR MORE
MORE THAN MEItE LIVING
IT IS GIVING . 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.

TOO MANY
COMMENCERS
THE MORTALITY RATE AMONG
IDEAS IS WAKE-UP STAY
WITH IT, DON'T CHANGE
We've found it pays. We scan the
"Wants" regularly.Opportunity lurks
there. 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!
