Some warn not to smoke cigarettes. whUe others smoke two ormore packs a day. Eight years ago, at the age of almost 90, EnochWashington Smith was still most active, doing his own gardening. Atthat time he was quoted in an article in this newspaper as "not surewhy I have lived so long, but I am sure of one thing. If someone hadn'tpulled me out of an icy pond many years ago. I wouldn't be here todayI thought I was gone. I was walking out <m the pond and the ice aaveaway,"During his 97 years Mr. Smith saw many changes take place in theworld: the coming of the automobile, the airplane, the radio,television, computers—and the value of money. In 1903. he and PinkFoster worked at the Cooieemee Mlllfw -l-cents an hour, sweeping theweave room. Today some wage employees earn more in one hour thanthose two did in an entire week.As the writer of the article about Mr. Smith observed in 1976:"Aicott did not have E.W. Smith in mind when he prais^ the youth inold p€ople~butfor90 years of his life, Mr. Smith was living testimonythat there is some truth m the fact.'-'
