How to Grow Old LONDON, March 14—Smoke a pipe, drink a pint of beer a day, and live to be a centenarian. This was the advice given today by Mrs. Sarah Hayes of Glammorganshire, who recently celebrated her one hundredth birthday. Sixty years ago, when she was very ill, her doctor advised her to start smoking a pipe. Now she smokes a quarter pound of strong tobacco each week, and takes a pint of beer each day. “My pipe is more important to me than fcod,” she declared, “and my advice to the modern girl is to start smoking a pipe instead of so many cigarettes.” One of a family of twenty-two children, she has had nineteen herself. .- — FRED SORRI GOES NORTH WITH YUKON Fred Sorri, former Juneauite who has since moved to Fairbanks, and has been employed in the Senate Chambers during the last session as Sergeant-at-Arms, left Juneau on the Yukon today enroute to the Interior.
