DON’T FEAR YOUR MUSCLE _ The young men employed «on ‘forest work by the government conservation camps have averaged to gain 12 pounds in weight while thus engaged. Many ef these fellows, accustomed only to sitting on of- fice chairs or at school desks, must have | looked at their axes and saws with some} ‘the Ansoclated Press apprehension. ay a eeeeetanos must have taken a Jot of liniment for the first weeks to soothe those ‘sore muscles. ® OSee ACROSS a Belonat ing to. & Hindu title of fj Germ Insect one's. “How can 1 swing that heavy ‘thing ? vall day?” many of them probably said.

After a few. weeks of it, you would see their flat chests expand, their feeble ‘muscles fil] out, until they would swing an axe the way'they used to handle a baseball ‘at, “No one should fear to use the mus- le Nature gave him. It was never meant ‘to lie asleep. Many a powerful fellow who is stifling his lungs as he bends over a desk, ‘| could learn from these boys that ‘what he | needs is life in the woods or on some farm. | 1 NOTICE . ‘a of resolu' alt reading notices; se ten thanks, Parente! the rate of 10 cents line. nal ; ertainments by ee oe ‘anonymove communi- FROST, m3 2 ROR # 250 Park Ave. New York; Drive, CRUELTY TO ANIMALS Many persons appear to have an in- clination to cruelty, especially towards animals, upon which they inflict needless suffering without the slightest pity. In fact, some seem to take a fiendish delight 4| in the agonies of unfortunate creatures. . ; To one of normal sensibilities, ‘it 4s || hard to‘explain this sort of depravity, | which is often found among children, ‘as | ‘well as among older persons.

M Cruelty to animals indicates a certain baseness, which usually . includes cruel propensities towards human beings, which -are only repressed through cowardice. Children should be taught early to ‘avoid practices which tend to make them callous to the agonies of helpless creatures. It should be explained to them that when } it is necessary to kill animals for food or ‘| for the safety of human life, it should be done as swiftly and humanely as possible; never with a desire to infliet pain. ; Teachers in schools and Sunday Schools might do a great deal more than is | being done now in the way of humane edneation, while parents should especially ‘observe and endeavor to correct tendencies | _ | toward cruelty on the part of their ‘chil-| | dren. BASEBALL YIELDS TO CROCHET BALL |. ‘Most sweeping of the changés of a ehangeful day, the crochet ball has now passed the baseball as the ‘most popular ball in the United States, The baseball, | symbol of the hoary monarch of American pastimes, is batted out by manufacturers at the rate of 9,000,000 a year, according to the latest Department of Commerce ‘figures; whereas the ball of cotton thread 4 for crocheting is now produced at vir- tually double that rate. ‘ Popularity of the needlework arts is| | attributed partly to the added Jeisure time mea NRA... Home economics teaci ‘also pikint out that, even; cS “is possible for human fingers only not he* juced by machine. T inclined to do so may figure out, on the basis of 200 yards of cotton to.a ball, that this represents something over | 200,000 miles of cotton’ going over the end of the crochet hook into garments ‘for ‘the American woman, into articles for the American household, and imto decoration of many kinds to pledse the American eye.
