BABSON AND THE FUTURE
In an address at the Kiwanis Club
of Toronto the other day Mr. Roger
Babson, the noted. statistician of the
United States, took a "dip into the
future" and gave an outline of some
of the marvels he thought the world
would see in the course of the next
quarter of a .century, Mr. Babson's
predictions are interesting, He saw
a world transformed by science, and
as different from the present time as
this era differs from the Renaissance.
Power, he believed, would be gener_
ated from the tides, from the har-
nessed heat of the sun, and from the
latent heat in the bowels of the earth,
Gold would be created from lead, and
copper from clay. Electric power
would be broadcast from radio waves,
and aeroplanes would operate in
chains as railway trains do now. By
the use of glandular treatment and
radio waves the span of human life
would be lengthened, and an increase
of leisure would result in a. corres-
ponding spiritual developement of the
race.

My thoughts go back to the new -

Wherein our dear one lies;
The voice is now silent, the heart is

MAN'S LIFE 12 YEARS
Married men live 12 years longer
than single men! Dr, Henry Fair-
field Osboln, head of the American
Museum of Natural ,History, of New
York, made a survey recently among
married and single men and ilea
proofs to back pp this assertion, Dr,
Osborn, a married man now 71 years
of age has made a profound study of
the question of Marriage vs, Single
Blessedness, and comes out strongly
in favour of the matrimonial state. He
declares that, as a result of facts and
figures he has compiled on the subject
he is convinced that a married man
has a much better chance to survive
the terriffie strain of modern exist6ence
than the single roan,
Dr. Osborn has based his theory of
the superior longevity of the married
man on the study of the careers of
the graduates of the class Df 1877 at
the Princeton University. He 'has a
record of those who married in the
last fifty years and of those who re-
mained bachelors. Forty-two per cent
of the married graduates survived
their 50th anniversary, while only 25,.
per cent of the bachelors are living
to -day. A twelve-year break for the
benedicts, twelve more years in which
to live and love! The graduating
class of half a century ago averages
72 years, with only 52 of the 152 men
still living. The married men of each
profession not only lived longer on
the average than the bachelors but
thein
45 per cent ofare still living,
as agaiost 25 per cent of the single
