JAMES W. BARTON kv Western Newiptptr Union.) ISPEAK often about good posture--erect position of the body whether standing or sitting-- because of its value both physical and mental. The erect carriage of the body means that the shoulders are well back and the chest well forward, giving the lungs plenty of room to expand, and preventing any crowding or pressure on the heart. With the lungs drawing in the pure air and, What is more important breathing out the impure air, the blood, pumped by a heart free from pressure, will carry more nourishment to and more wastes from every cell in the body. The erect position calls also for a drawing in (or backwards) of the abdomen and the development of the abdominal muscles by keeping the abdomen drawn in or back holds the abdominal organs up in their proper positions, thus aiding digestion and preventing constipation. Dr. Philip Lie win, New York, in Clinical Medicine and Surgery, gives 10 commandments of good posture. 1. Stand tall. 2. Sit tall. 3. Walk tall and "chesty," with weight of the body on the balls or front part of the feet. 4. Draw in the abdomen, pulling it backwards and upwards. 5. Keep the shoulders high and square. 6. Pull the chin downward toward the collar button. 7. Flatten the hollow of the back by rolling the hip bones downward and backward. 8. Separate the shoulders from the' hips as far as possible. Do this more by drawing hips down than by raising shoulders. 9. Lie tall and flat. {Don't overdo this as having elbows and knees very slightly bent helps to relax the body and so invites sleep). 10. Think tall. • • • X7?-*# What's to Be Donel ^ ^ About Dandruff? DERHAPS you have been reading 1 about various cures for dandruff or have tried some without obtaining a cure. That dandruff is a forerunner or cause of loss of hair is not true, according to many research' workers. THe federal trade , commission of the United Jftatep, after an inveptigation'of dai^iff, stater that there is no proof that dandruff is due to any infection. In Public Health Reports, Washington, D. C., Dr. C. W. Emmons states that while a small yeastlike organism is always present in the dry or greasy scales of dandruff. This little organism is known as the "bottle bacillus" and many investigators haye tried in vain to cause it to grow as other tiny organisms are made to grow. Even those research workers who have been successful in growing this organism admit that they have not been able to cause dandruff in way scalps by inoculation with it. Instead of trying to infect a normal scalp and thus perhaps cauae dandruff, it was decided to inoculate an individual who already had dandruff and to measure whether this inoculation caused any increase in the time required to divelop dandruff in places where dandruff was extensive as compared with places in which dandruff was absent or scant. The dandruff did not appear any sooner in the inoculated spots than in the other spots.: *• This proves, that, with our p: that r© ' >" s jrV? By L. L.

I., bound for school. The school room onyneriijkofdy mildly boring, loomed ftoddenljr in his thoughts as stuffy and thoroughly distasteful. He dawdled along, his thoughts on the neighboring j&ll van Kull and the fascinating craft whioh gjHfcd its waters beneath the span of tee Bayonne bridge. Finding suddenly that his feet already had taken him toward the strait and away from school, he brightened perceptibly and mended his pace, school completely erased from his mind. fifs trustworthy feet, responsive to an appeal from his stomach, brought him back home somewhat > early for lunch. In fact, it was only 11:30 a. m. when hi* mother, Mrs. William Marvel, looked out the window and saw Richard sauntering homeward, apparently in deep thought, kicking a tin can aiong ahead of him with a preoccupied afr. She opened the window. Mother Scolds. "Richard," she said, "why aren't you in School? You know what your father will say." Mrs. Marvel went on and on, ard her voice penetrated at last to Richard's submerged consciousness. "Hey, look, mom," he said. "I've kicked this can all the way for five blocks and never missed once." Mrs. Marvel, realizing that a lot of sound advice had been wasted, began repeating it and Richard somewhat resentfully gave his can a final kick and retired. So did Mrs. Marvel, confident that her erring son would show up by the time food was on the table. He failed to do so, however. At six o'clock, when dinner was ready, Richard still was missing. His mother telephoned the police. Motorcycle patrolmen, an emergency squad and two carloads of detectives, about 30 men in all, were dispatched from St. George, S. I. Mrs. Marvel had told them that Richard seemed fascinated by the Kill van Kull waterfront, so they looked there first. They investigated the boathouses and they beat through the patches of woods near the approach to the Bayonne bridge. The light began to fail and still they had not found Richard nor had they found anyone who remembered seeing the boy. Keeps PeHee Basy. The police got their searchlights and began hunting through buildings in the vicinity. At 8:20 a patrolman of the emergency squad flashed the beam of his torch into a dog house in the rear of an unoccupied house five blocks from Richard's home. Something stirred in the salt hay on the floor of the structure and a startled small boy took form, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. t "Hey," said Richard, "you woke me up. What do you think you're trying to do?" The searcher explained that he was a policeman and that he was looking for Richard. "My mom didn't have wiy right to call the cops," said Richard indignantly. "I had just got to sleep and you woke me up. I suppose now I got to go home." The policeman agreed and they went. Richard grew mere cheerful as he became wider awake and admitted that a hot meal wouldn't be bad.
