Given the co- | operation of local citizens, they can do} wonders, Key West’s beautiful climate and the interesting ride over the keys is going. to | continue to bring many people here from | all over the nation. Repairs to the high- way and the installation of a water system | will aid in making the trip here and resi- dence here more pleasant. But the two necessary points in mak- ing visitors stay here continue to be the old ‘ones—making the city more beautiful and | giving the visitors something to do while they are here. | The junior chamber, with the co- operation of the city’s residents, is going to work on the first one. They need the help of everyone. DO YOU VALUE YOUR HEALTH? | Writing in Hygenia, Dr, Fred W, Norris states that the American public wastes over $4,000,000 annually on garments and gad- gets which are alleged to reduce fat. Most of the money is spent for reducing girdles and massage devices of one kind or another, | This does not take into consideration the sizeable sums that are spent for patent | reducing medicines. In this case, the pos- | sible danger to health is a far worse factor | | than the waste of money involved. As medical authorities and government bodies | have pointed out, some remedies of this | character have been put on the market, | which are definitely harmful, and which | may even cause death if taken long enough. | Persons who wish to rid themselves of | excess fat should realize that reducingsis a | serious matter, and should not be taken except under-a physician’s he Those versed In the proper “treat ent obesity almost unanimously oppose fal duetion by means of rollers or girdles with- out resort to rigid restriction of diet and | regular, scientific exercise. If you wish to reduce, see your doctor and follow his ad- vice. America’s registered, qualified medi- quacks and the fakes whose prineipal ambi- tion is to obtain your money. REDUCES 300 POUNDS IN 18 MONTHS Don’t ask us the details but the Journal | of the American Medical Association ad- vises that a woman reduced her weight 300 pounds in eighteen months by dieting under. medical supervision, without injury | to her health, ‘ 14 Se The woman, unnamed by the Journal, is 35 yearsold. She weighed 47914. % weakness but because removal of - fat left muscles too long to work properly. After a few weeks, she walked normally. The diet was below the daily food re- | quirement of the individual, thus forcing the body to consume its own fat for heat | and energy. The woman lost 115 pounds | during the first four months, { The experiment seems to indicate that | there is apparently no limit to the amount | of excess weight that can be removed with safety, even if it means inconvenience and minor physical complications. ‘ Today In History 1493 — Coumbus sails from Spain on his second voyage, this time loaded down with honors, a fleet of 17 ships and tools for|of the “chiggers” is being won, colonizat:on, 1690—First and only issue. of “Publick Occurences Both For- eign and Domestick”, Boston, a 3-page sheet, and known as first newspaper in country.
