Local Dealer Finds That Bi
cycle Not Only Saves Time
But Adds Much to Health
"It develops your health." This
was the essence of short talk on
the reasons why one should ride
a bicycle, which Lloyd Itamsden
( J - ot head or chst aretnort easily
SS-0 t tiMWd wrternally with
gavo a Statesman representative.
A certain dealer of Mr. Rams
den's acquaintance was one day
watching; the crowds of children
going home from school when he
was impressed by the number ot
boys that had skinny underdevel
oped legs. This dealer conceived
the idea of holding a sort of cau
cus to find how the boys who rode
bicycles compared with the ones
who did not.- It is interesting to
note tliat in practically every case
the boy who "rode a bicycle show
ed much better physics develop
ment than the one who did not.
Sir. Itam&den also mentioned
the fact that a bicycle would in a
short time pay for itself in saving
depreciation on a cart left setting
out in the elements.
Another thing that Mr. Rams
den especially mentioned was the
time savingt the? bicycle. Many
times that one is In a hurry he
can take a bicycle and be there
while he would be cranking a car.

The value of bicycling, both
from the standDoint of health and
economy, is very often underesti
mated, according to ; Harry w.
Scott, local bicycle and motor-.
cycle dealer.; Many business menf
clerks and V office workers ride
street cars to their work and do
not stop to consider that their
bodies need a little physical ex
ercise. It would ; not do for peo-
nle of this type to take strenuous
exercise but the easy, free sensa
tion that accompanies the riding-
of a good bicycle makes this form
of exertion a delight. ,. .
"You can save money by riding
a bicvele rather than a street car.
and In addition to this you are
always free to go when you want
to " said Mr. Scott, when com
menting on the virtues of bicycl
ing.
."More and more thoughtful men
are Tiding . bicycles , ihorae f rom
their work so that they can take
advantage of the long : evenings
by working in the garden." '
ities, which was six less than for
the nrevious year. Thirty people
were asphyxiated; 27 died from
falls, 20 were burned to deain;
10 were shot, and 9 died In street
car accidents. The one bicycle ac
cident occurred at the bottom of
the somewhat lengthy list, the
grand total for which was 559
deaths.
BETTER. SERVICE GIVEN FROM
AMERICAN MAKES
Consul C. S. Marsh, Progreso,
reports to the department of com
merce that there are something
over 3000 bicycles in Yucatan, al
though due to the general ousineus
depression of the past two yea'-s,
sales of bicycles have been some
what curtailed.,; More than 90 per
cent of the bicycles sold in Yuca
tan are of American origin. This
Is due to the fact tliat American
makes give better service than the
few bicycles of English and Ger
man makes which are on the mar
ket and also repair , parts can be
secured much more easily. Nickel
plated frames are the most popu

fact that we consider it a saving
proposition, saving steps as well
as money. A number of our men
find their bicycles, if not an abso
lute essential, certainly a very
great convenience in getting to and
going from their work." -
BICYCLES SAFE
The report of the chief coroner
for the city of Toronto. Dr. G.
n rah am. for accidental and other
deaths in the city during 1923
forms strong support for the argu
ment that bicycling Is a safe pas

The Salvation army-budget, cam

not reached the expectations of
Ensign and Mrs. Holbrook but has
come a few dollars over the $2000
mark. The interest that has been

a fine testimony as it cleared $325.
There are a number of people who
have, said that after May 1 they
will contribute. .
This campaign is for the year
and the objective is $4000 as It
takes that much for the needed

the organization through that per

GOOD KXKRCISR
The whole body is more thor
oughly exercised in riding a bicycle
than in-any other form of exercise.
Yet the bicycle is so perfectly
adapted to bodily needs that the fa
tigue of a ten-mile ride is less than
one Would experience in walking a
tenth of that distance.
A result or bicycle riding is the
strengthening of one's muscles, not
only the lower extremities, but of
the abdomen, chest and arms, all
of which are constantly excited to
contract.

dorse the use of bicycles for work
ing men and women," says S. H.
