108

Barrett Nichols of Falmouth, Maine, celebrated his 108th birthday recently. Mr. Nichols was a child when Henry Ford made his first Model-T. He has lived through two world wars and the Great Depression. His friends say he is an avid golfer, has a good sense of humor, and still loves his cigars and rum and tonics. We know that humor and exercise play a role in resilience. And, at least for Mr. Nichols, it appears that cigars and rum and tonics have also played a role.
