The "Tummy Tien" Exercises . Not
Cited To Cure Rapture
Abdominal Exercise and Hernias.
T
'N your Tummy Ten exercises
you have one which you say
has been known to cure rup
ture. I wish to inquire whether a
cure might b e
effected by tbii
exercise, even
though no truss
is used, or must
the rupture be
held. In by a
trurs in order
for the exercise
to do any good?
Also, please ad
vise if you
.would consider
moderate rope
Jumping h a s-
nnxi ox rupture
where no truss Is used. . "H."
If you will re-read the article
on the Atonic Abdominal Wall you
will find : that I did not say the
abdominal, exerciser would cure-a
rupture. What I dfd say was that
by developing the abdominal mus
cles they might reduce the rupture
opening and that they might pre
vent hernia from, forming. A hernia-
of long standing, one where a
truss has to be worn, would most
likely have to operated upon. The
operation is; not a serious one, as
the .inner' abdominal wall 'Is not
opened. 1
As far as rope jumping is con
cerned, I don't belieye.it would be
harmful in case of. a small hernia
where a truss didh-'t have to-be
used, but' It- would be better - for
you to see your physician; and-get
his advice after an examination: v .

Endleott sponsored "Sauce for the
Gosling" a Salem high school

Interesting Review
The study class of the depart,
ment of applied education, a divi
sion of the Salem Woman's club,
met for an unusually interesting
meeting at 2:30 o'clock In the
clubhouse rooms of the Woman's
club. Monday.
Dr. F. G. Franklin gave a terse,
concise review of the latest cur
rent event happenings, and this
was followed by a review of "The
New Temple" by Johan Bojer, giv
en by Dr. Martin Ferry. Dr. Ferry
sketched some outstanding points
in connection with this book, giv
ing the fact that Bojer is a Scan
danavlan writer of great force and
in this book has topped a new
view of philosophy, namely ideal
ism, which has been relegated to
the ecrap-book for the past few
years according to Dr. Ferry
Books which have come from the
pen of Bojer before this one are
"Life." "the Great Junger,". "The
Prisoner Who Sang," and. "The
Pilgrimage", all of which show a
strong tone of realism.

Local Student Wins
Praise in University :
Malcolm Medler, .well known in
musical and University circles In
Salem has won laurels for him
self in the special work in music
which he is doing with Mrs. Jane
Thacher of the University school
of music. He" appeared in recital
in the music auditorium at the
university Tuesday evening .and
won much praise from the review
er and appreciation from the audi
ence.
In speaking of the Greig num
ber which he played and of the
Caprice Viennois-Kreisler the re
viewer said:
"The Greig was an achieve
ment! There was a delightful
niceness about the individual notes
and the finale, molto allegro, was
especially noteworthy for the fine
shadings in it. Mr. Medler put
all the traditional feeling Into
Schubert s Impromptu In B flat,
which led the third grdup, and
Kreisler, I believe, would have
been pleased to hear his interpre
tation of the Caprice Viennois
Kreisler.

Adventures
MR. DUCK LOSf HIS TEMPER
Drake stared at Peter as though
he couldn't believe his own ears.
But Peter paid no attention to
him. He went right on with what
he was saying.
"You do not . sleep at night,
Drake you have Just said nlgnt
is the time you visit the feeding
grounds so how can the frogs
keen vou awake when you know
as well as I do that night Is the
time they make the 'most noise.
"When the sun shines the frogs
are too busy to do much talking
and then, too, I suppose the bright
warm light makes them sieepy.
Just as It does you. No, my fine
fellow, you will have to make up
another excuse for treating the
frogs so badly."
Now nobodv in the world likes
to be caught telling a fib, and it
made' Sir. Drake angry to think
that the boy had found him out.
In a fit of temper he duckea
hte head under the water and
puffed and spouted and tried his
lonrln to Clark M. Will, now
with the Bertelson-McShane print
ing concern In Salem. The deal
was handled by A. C. Bohrnstedt,

SUGAR WAS ONCE
TAXED AS LUXURY
Considered a Delicacy Only
Rich Could Afford
A well-known food authority re
cently pointed out that sugar was
once considered "an exotic tropical
luxury." As a luxury, sugar was
subject to taxation on the theory
that it would be used by the wealthy
classes that could afford to be taxed.
Sugar is 'now so cheap in price,
the food authority went on to show,
that it is used by everyone. As a
matter of fact, as another scientist
recently pointed out, there is now
no fuel for the human body as
cheap as sugar. "Sugar is one of
the cleanest, purest, most whole
some foods," he said. "There is
nothing that gives nutriment so
cheaply."
. The ideal way to use sugar is
as a flavorer of all those varied,
healthful foods we should eat in
order to be strong and well. . All
children and adults should drink
milk each day, and a little sugar
and flavoring can be used to make
delicious milk-shakes. Modern
health authorities affirm that all of
us should eat abundant f ruits and
vegetables, fresh and canned, raw
and cooked. It is inadvisable to
try to force the members of your
family to eat fruits, vegetables and
meats unen joy ably prepared.
Sweetening is the key-note of de
licious, healthful cookery, and don't
forget the satiation value of des
serts, such as cakes, cookies and ice
reams. A bit of sweet makes the
neal complete. The Sugar Institute.
