Show WRIGHT PATTERSON Science Aids Those Over 40 SINCE Revolutionary war days science has lowered the d ith rate of infants and people under 40. But science has not accomplished as much for those who have passed the 40th milestone. At the time of the Revolutionary war those who had reached the age of 40 still had, as an average, 26 more years to live. One hundred years ago that average had been increased to 23 years. An analysis of old and new mortality tables, made by Northwestern North-western National Life Insurance company, shows that those of 40 now can expect to live another 30 years. Science is promising new and far greater wonders in that line. |
