Aga Khan III Event - 1925-12-08

Date: 
Tuesday, 1925, December 8
Location: 

December 8, 1925 - Sir Sultan Mohamed Shah, Aga Khan III wrote an article 'How to live Long' which was printed in 'The Evening Standard,' London. This two column article was signed by Sir Sultan Mohamed Shah, Aga Khan III and also carried his photograph.
This article was fifth in a series written by prominent men who told
the readers about their lifestyle, diet, and care aimed at good health and a
reasonably long span of life. '...He should, at least once a day, and oftener if he
can, take some pleasurable and vigorous exercise. Unless he does so his whole
body becomes ungainly and horrible, which is the most ungrateful way of
returning thanks to 'God Who made us in His own image,' for, although I do not
believe that we are actually made in the image of God, I believe that physical
beauty has a spiritual value.' (Aziz; 786)
