ANN ARBOR, Mich, Dec. 21.--
Out of $50 freshmen girls at this
University of Michigan there arr
81 who have curved spines. Fol
each of these afflicted girls there
are certain exercises given In Bar
bour gymnasium, by Katherine
lBigelow, the woman's physica
director, all tending to bring the
coed back to her normal condi
tion and health.
Miss Bigelow believes that ev
cry public school should have &
trained director to intelligently
instruct in physical science. Il
would mean fewer stopped meI
and women, she says.
In Barbour gymnasium are
complete apparatus of all kinds
to aid in the correction of these
poor, abused, feminine spines
The case is indeed stubborn that
shows no marked improvement
after six months corrective work
Miss Bigelow says:
For each coed afflicted with
spinal trouble there is an exercise
suited to her individual needs. Al
the beginning of the semester an
examination of each student is
made, and measurements taken oil
each ,freshment girl. After a
careful study of these records,
Miss Bigelow evolves certain ex-
ercises which she considers need
full. The exercises are first given
with the girls back bare, that the
instructor may see IL her theory
works out correctly. New exer-
cises are added when the student
has strength to stand them.
The apparatus used for curved
spines includes a table that looks
more like some fiendish torture
instrument of medieval age
than twentieth century blessing
on the table the patient is strap
ped, hands grasping ropes which
work from pulleys at the head
and each side. The heavy straps
from each side are 50 arranged
that when the spine is curved to
the right, the left strap, arranged
to cross the back at tie place
where the curvature is most pro-
nounced, exercises resistance To
that particular spot. drawing the
curved column to The left at that
place. The coed holds this po-
sition for from two to five min
utes. according to endurance.

PURSE :: &: Z. /:

The board of works this after
noon requested the city engineer
to prepare an estimate of cost of
the proposed fill in place of the old
Havermale bridge, taking into con-
sideration the fact that the fill can
be used for a city gravel waste
dump. s-l5"
This is the bridge which extends
from Howard street to Hayermale,
where practically all of the prop
erty along both sides is owned by
the w. w. P. The fill will bene-
fit the w. w. P. almost exclusive
ly. In recommendation of the
fill to the board City Engineer Raj
ston did not say anything about
the probabilities of the w. w. P.
paying any portion of it's cost.
AS planned. the taxpayers will
have to pay all of the cost, which
will amount to several thousand
dollars. Mayor Moore recently
stated that the w. w. P. should
pay the greater part. So far as
the average taxpayer can see there
seems no reason why that COM
pany should not pay all of the
cost. as hardly anyone else will
benefit.

DEMOCRAT WINS
WOOLSACK

Judge Hinkle has reversed Coun
ty Auditor Greene and the county
commissioners, who issued a Ger
tificate of election to Frank Hat
field as justice of the peace for one
of the precincts at Cheney over w
B. Webb, who claimed to be duly
elected.
The certificate was issued to Hat
field on the ground that each pre-
cinct is entitled to a justice, and
that Hatfield was the choice of the
voters of his precinct by plurality
of few votes.
Webb contested Hatfield's cleo
ton on the ground that it had been
the custom in Cheney for the two
precincts into which the town is
divided to unite jointly in the cleo
ton of justice, under which con
tention Webb claimed to be elected
by four votes.
Judge Hinkle held that Webb
under section 1862 of the code, was
in the right, and declared him tC
be the duly elected justice. Webt
is democrat and Hatfield is re
publican, but politics were not con
sidered in the adjudication of the
matter by the court.
