AFTERMATH OF VISIT “Prince of Wales is being presented with a book of news- paper clippings consisting of 61,120 references to his visit to Long Island and weighing 325 pounds. If some thought- ful person will now present his royal highness with a copy of the New York telephone directory, he will have enough light literature to last the winter.” The foregoing is quoted from the Toronto Evening Tele- gram, in the prince’s own empire. Anyone who believes that a keen sense of humor is lacking among the English and their Dominion cousins certainly has another guess; Ineard the news?” coming.

ELECTION COSTS The election in England costs London’s business alone 500 million dollars. This is the estimate by a leading Lom- =bard street banker.

(Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) BY CONDO FORM oe "WHOM" $ TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1924 OLDEST MAN IS 163 By Albert Apple Oldest living man in the world is the Manchurian giant, Yuan Kwo-Chang. He claims he’s 168. Orientals accept him as authentic. The Chinese, in particular, believe he doesn’t exaggerate his age. Marshal Chang pensions him, 200 yen a year. _ And yet Yuan, living his life in a half-barbaric Mongolian district, hasn’t actually “lived” as much as the average American of 80. What counts isn’t the number of birthdays, but how « ff much happens between birthdays. Our generation, amid scientific marvels and with the whole world literally at our door as a result of transporta- tion magic, crams into one year as much experience, learn- ing, sensations and impressions as our great-grandfathers got in a dozen.

With it, you can travel more than Marco L rx Polo in his whole lifetime. Or Columbus or any of the early ~ explorers. The main difference is that you will not have their hardships.

So claimed the eminent German scientist, Professor Fritz Haber, re- sal He expects the elimination of causes of natural leath. , After enduring a few centuries, people would begin to curse the scientists who condemned them to the 1000 years. Life begins to get dull after the eightieth birthday or before. The average old person is quite calm as he contemplates the approaching end—more than resigned, he is willing. He has tasted life to its full extent and is ready for another world. This earth is not interesting enough to be a permanent home, nor even for 1000 years. Life is a journey. And a gradual sameness makes any long trip tiresome toward its close. The ocean may be at its best, delightful.

For instance, you would like to memorize the radio letters of the bigger stations throughout the coun- try. Study the professor’s method, “Use association,” says Professor Reno, “and make a phrase of some sort and use as many words as you have letters”.

Of all the varied publications that pour in upon a surfeited read- er, not the least interesting of the group is “The Spaghetti News,” an infant of the journalistic wilder- ness of Gotham.

Writes he, “It is ‘no longer a dif- ficult task to’eat sphagetti properly, for the only thing about it is to FABLES ON HEALTH. turn a portion of spaghetti around the fork and then merely bend the, head and swallow the delicious mora sel. “First: The mouth must be wide open. “Second: It must be eaten while the spaghetti is hot.” With the ritual thus simplified your correspondent will strive once more to eat the delicious morsel in the approved manner. Heretofore he has had considerable difficulty in winding up the spaghetti even when backstopping the fork with the spoon and in keeping his mouth wide open until a forkful has been pitched in and trampled down under the eaves. ‘The circulation of “The Spaghetti, News” is 200,000. Copies are freed The pages are three inches by six. The advertising rates are $50 a page, but political advertising -is $1009 a page. The editor announces that he is giving free art work and space to the Democratic party. How- ever, no other party is advertising in the publication. Cap Higgins, the artist, drove in from Jersey and stabled this car in an uptown garage that overlooks the Hudson and the Jersey shore. The man who took charge of the car was about 50 and thas lived in New York all his life.
