Wonderful stories used to be told of - how long men lived in the old country. But now we have Dr. Maurice larnest, who tnowe a thing or two about long life. Seventy-eight years old, he is the founder and president of the Centenarian ~lub ot London. The Centenarians are a society, each one determined to live for a hundred years. The doctor 11 over here to teach that art to American• - and, today, he indulged in a diecuas1on of legends of long lite. Be notes, for example, tha.t one-tiae prl4e ot England - old Parr, who clal ■ed to be a hundred and flftJ-two when he died. In honor of th11 old Parr wae interred - in Westmlnlst~r Abbey. _ , along wlth the greatest of the warriors, atateemen and poets of England. But the London doctor says that old Parr was - a swindler. He lied about his age. The preeldent of the Centenarian Club note• that the Russian 101ent1st Ketchnlkoff developed a lePJilYI%J · · · · . a theory of drinking Bulgarian buttermilk - because there were so many Bulgarians over a hundred years old, and they drank buttermilk. The doctor points out that none of those Bulgari... had birth certificates to prove their age - there being no birth certificates 1n Bulg&r1&. Then come the Irish, next on the 11st of the doctor from London. Be notee that year• ago Ireland u1ed to have more oentena.rtans than · a11 the rest of ,he British Isle• put together - living to be far more than a hundred being a commonplace on the old 104. But, after a while, there wa1 a change - and the Irish 414 not llve eo long any more. VhyT Because they started a registration of births, giving proof of how old a.n Irishman really wa1. When birth oert1f1cate1 came lnto vogue, the number of oentenar1a.n1 on the lmerald Isle diminished remarkably. Doe• that Inglish doctor, 1traight fro■ London
