Nefed of Municipal Golf Course Is Seen Ban yras oisoo, Oaklamd and Other California Cities Bay Them, Bay Xrirals Sosenblatt, After a Trip. Portland must have a municipal golf course if it Is to keep abreast with other cities, declared Louis Rosenblatt, who has just returned from a trip to California. "San Francisco, Oakland and other California cities have public golf courses," said Mr. Rosenblatt this morning. Fees collected pay from 80 to 60 per cent of the maintenance costs. t "I understand the ground offered by the Ladd estate to the city is entirely suitable and all the city would have to do Is to pay the taxes. The links could be installed and the course equipped for $7600. Thirty public spirited business men contributing 9260 each could provide this amount. I am willing to subscribe 3260 If the rest of the 97500 can be' raised. "Golf is not expensive, if public links are provided. Thousands of men and women would be afforded oppor tunity to get needed outdoor exercise.

The Road to Adipose. 4nO TOU know." declared a, friend II of mine suddenly, as we sat watching a graceful pair of dancers not long ago, "one never sees a fat girl any more. All the girls these days are thin most of them painfully so." It la a noticeable fact that what my friend said is most certainly true. One used to associate plumpness with girls, but the average girl of today resembles the fabled one, whom, it is said, "went down to the drug store and bought a dozen lemonade straws so she would have plenty of raincoats on hand." We are living In a speedy age. We have too much to do and too Utile time in which to do it. In order to keep up with the requirements of the present day's work and play one must have a constitution as vigorous j as that of our hard-working pioneer ancestors. Too many young people burn the candle at both ends. Late hours, insufficient sleep, too many ac tivities are some of the things that use up the vigor of many of the younger set. Ten hours In bed Is necessary for the growing body, but not many people seem to recognize it. Of course. It is a well known fact that most fat people are lazy and most lazy people are fat. That proves at least one things that if you are thin, you need rest. An hour stolen now and then from your work or play will do no harm and will aid you mate rially in building up your body. The Spanish habit of' taking a ' siesta after the noon meal is an ex cellent one for the thin person. Even though you cannot sleep, It Is a good , Idea to He down and relay naif an hour after your heaviest meal, which may be either at noon or In the eve ning, according to your own consti tution. Some people are better off with a large meal at the noon hour and a small one at night. Othors find they have better digestion if they save their dinner appetite until eve ning. But relax after dinner and you can't help gaining. Walking is a splendid remedy for stout people but most thin ones don't need much of It. They must have their two or three miles of oxy- BY CLARA INGRAM JUDSON. Jack Frost's Bluff Fails. fT 'VE decided that' we will have a I very late spring this year," said Jack Frost in bis most pompous fashion. "That so?" asked the trees in the forest. "Just so," replied Jack Frost. "I'm tired of rushing off to the north pole simply because April has arrived. This year I intend to stay just as long as, I please, which will be into June at least." "That so?" asked a tiny violet plant that was hidden so far under the leaves and rubbish of the winter, one would have thought its words would never be heard. "Just so," replied Jack Frost posi tively. ""And moreover there's no use In your planning to bloom for many a week. There are still a whole package of storms and blizzards and freezes and blows that I have in reserve. You'll have no chance to bloom; the leaves will not dare to bud these many weeks." And he whistled and sang through the trees to prove that he knew what he was talking about. "That so?" asked tne tiny leaf buds at the ends of the twigs and branches. "Just so," replied Jack Frost fiercely, for It must be admitted that he did not fancy the tone of voice in which all these questions were asked. "Moreover, if you start swelling and growing one tiny bit, I'll freeze you so tight that you can't grow again this whole summer so there!" And he thought that would settle all talk. But it didn't no sir! For all the time Jack Frost waa talking, Old Mr. Sun was climbing higher and higher to the sky. And old Mother Wind was blowing the clouds faster and faster out of the way so that he could shine his hard est. And the air was getting warmer leaf-buds. "We'll grow when we can and before night the forest be gan to look like spring! The air was getting warmer and warmer. and warmer and warmer, till at last. by noon, even fierce Jack Fron felt the heat and began to grow sleepy. "Of course I have no idea of going away for good," he explained to every body. "But really I am tired and I think before I start that fine set of 6torms I was telling you about, I will slip away for a nice little rest." So he tiptoed away toward the north. And the sun shone hotter and hot ter and all the violets and the leaf buds and the grasses and green things looked around to see if he had gone. And they didn't see him. "Of course he may come back," said the violet. "But I'm not afraid, and she started growing. "We're not afraid, either," sang the Tomorrow Xews of the Hunters' Camp Spreads. PERSONAL MENTfON C. L.
