CalTunto Me and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty thing which thou knowest not. —Jeremiah 33> Man Against Machine Man is still the world’s most won* derful machine. Want proof? TheO look at these figures some statistician has compiled: In 70 years of life, a human beini eats 1,400 times his own body weigh^i over 100 tons of food, and he spend* five full years putting food in hi* mouth. If his weight is average, even day his heart beats 103,680 times, hiS blood travels 168,000,000 miles, breathes 23,040 times, he inhales 43 cubic feet of air, gives off 85 degrees of heat and moves 750 major muscle*' The average person blinks 25 times ^ minute and each blink lasts one-fif^ of a second. Thus if he averages ^ , miles an hour on a ten hour moto j trip, he drives 25 miles with his shut. This body can take a lot of ishment and still function. A man ca get along without his gall bladdej^’ spleen, appendix, and bladder. He ca give up one kidney, two quarts ° blood, a piece of his brain, all of teeth and Uve. And just one traffic accident ca*’ stop this wonderful machine cold. Jamison Visits E. S.
