last year. Thorn finally succeeded in OBJ
tanning a license from Mayor Gaynor on
April 5.
Since then there has been a storm of pro-
tests against allowing the place TO be run
According TO jewellers in the neighborhood,
it has been the cause of drawing a large
number of undesirable characters to the
spot. They are demanding that the license
be revoked.
At the time the Mayor visited the place
yesterday everything was as quiet as a
church mouse.
His honor wants 10 come around here at
night" remarked a bystander: then he
would see tIiIuSS III AIeAE true lISHl.
The Mayor was particularly pleased with
the facilities offered by Van Cortlandt Park
as a pleasure ground for the children, and
became enthusiastic over baseball game
between two public school teams. Besides
the enlarged baseball grounds. Commission
er Higgins took much interest in showing
the Mayor the contemplated playground
and athletic field for both young and old.
The beauties Of the flowers in Bronx Park
won the Mayors attention, as almost every
thing was in bloom. The animals in the
geological gardens pleased him, too.
Commissioner Higgins said that he in
tended to remove the buildings in Crotona
Park, which a recent court decision had
empowered him to do.

IN FAVOR OF FAT.
The Stout May Read This and Pluck Up
Courage.

Fat is often unappreciated or misun
derstood and unduly blamed for sins of
delinquencies of other body foods. From
Is to 20 per cent of each healthy body
is composed of fat and its chief sources
are the starches and sugars, though GER
tain fats are directly utilized.
The weight of present opinion is in
favor of the view that fats are complete
Iy decomposed in the intestine and that
the fatty acids formed are absorbed,
either as SOAPS or IN solution brought
about by the bile.
AS a source of energy for the develop
ment of heat, fat may be described as
quickly available, but not so lasting as
some other substances. By its ,concen-
trated fuel power it saves other tissues,
especially the albuminous ones from
overoxidation and is valuable as a re-
serve force.
Moreover by it's presence the protein IS
better enabled to do its work in tissue
building and as storage of energy for
emergencies it is of great Importance.
The last material use OF fat is to serve as
protection of the body from injury and
cold. It forms an outer cushion for the
frame.
From an aesthetic standpoint the phys
Illogical and orderly distribution of fat
in the connective tissue makes all the
difference between beauty and uglness.
In considering the psychic role or lat
we should especially bear IN mind. q.
NJ. Miles says, its reserve function in
relation to active processes. A liberal
deposition of fat is one of natures wise
precautions to enable US to bear some
of the trials of life. It has been known
from earliest antiquity that fat people
are more contented and optimistic than
lean ones and the supply of fat may be
compared to the ample bank account of
a busy and provident man.
Miles says that he believes he is cor
rect in asserting that a physiological re-
serve of fat by it's very presence eXerts
duieting and reasuring influence on the
vital forces most concerned in construc-
tive metabolism, while its lack leads to
physical discomfort and unrest, which
sooner or later reacts on the disposition,
developing into that pessimism and tenn
peramental discomfort so often seen IN
l. lean neODle.
