EXERCISE PREVENTS CRIME
Furnishes Safe Vent for Animal
Spirits, Declares Gymnast.

Physical exercise is the greatest
agency for crime prevention. So de-
clares Miss Faith Taylor, gymnast and
foremost graduate from the Sargent
gymnasium, Boston.
Not only is II a crime preventa tive,
says this fair theorist. but it is a cure
for all social Ills. In explaining her
favorite theories Miss Taylor said:
There is no doubt that there would
be much less crime II people took more
physical exercise. There are thou
sands of people who are endangering
their own health and happiness and
that of those about them because they
are not conscious that their bodies are
hungry for want OF exercise. There
are a host of these people who have
no ailment that medicine can cure.
They come and go to their work. their
studies or whatever they are doing ir-
rita BILE with themselves and with every
one about them.
People of this class of the more
phlegmatic temperament possess more
or less self control. but those Of the
more hasty temperament often lose
control Of themselves at the slightest
provocation. Environment has much
to do with this condition. For exam
pie. a person who lives in an over
crowded. poorly ventilated house amid
noise and more or less dirt. with high
strung temperament. is more apt to
give way to acts of violence than one
of the same temperament who lives
under quiet and better regulated con-
ditions.
However. II these overstrung and
sverwrougbt people would recognize
their ailment-for IL Is an ailment-and
take occasional exercise, whether in
walking or playing ball or some sim
pie gymnastic forms OF exercise and
by taking deep breaths. this condition
of rrftabiiity would soon be remedied-
Many crimes occur impulsively be-
cause Of the tremendous strain under
which people live and work. Too many
people fail to recognize the fact that
physical training benefits the mind as

arrival, had captured a swindler band
by stra tagem, and 1t was hoped that
he would be able to trap Bunker.
Robbins first step was to locate the
desperate and his gang. He therefore
sent out members of the posse in ev-
cry direction to gather information
and communicate with him at Eureka
as soon as any intelligence whatever
was received of the Whereabouts or
movements of the murderers and plum
derers.
Meanwhile Bunker, whose tactics
after a raid were to go into hiding at
some prearranged place not far from
the scene Of his operations, occupied
deserted sawmill In a wood A rail-
road ran past the mill, though on the
other side of a creek. Bunker's pur
pose was to keep quiet till it might
be supposed that he had reached some
point many miles away, then stop a
passing train and ride out of the dis
trict where he was especially wanted.
Two days after the robbery a boy
who was fishing in the creek saw men
at the mill The youngster slipped
down of stump on which he sat and,
unseen by the men In the mill, lodging
sometimes In the water and sometimes
under the bank, made his way out of
the wood. He had fshed there often
and had never seen any one in the
nth before. Everybody in the region

A Senseless SquabbIe.

without entering into a discus
sion OF the merits of the contro-
versy. The Argus confesses 1t has
no patience with the disposition of
the members OF the municipal COM
mission to be drawn into a contro-
versy among themselves over a
single appointment. Five men of
average intelligence, drawing good
salaries to safeguard and conduct
the city's interests, ought to be
broad enough and considerate
enough of each other to avoid feel
ing in the handling of a public ques-
ton, particularly where IT involves
q mere matter of an appointment.
This IL said without the least dis
paragement of the subject of dis
agreement, or of the fitness of the
proposed appointee. The simple
facts are that the commissioners as
q whole should under no circum-
stances undertake to abridge the
rights Of any individual member or
TO take from him prerogatives that
belong to the department assigned
to bis charge, or yet to delegate to any
one commissioner powers in conflict
With the law. II existing ordinances
governing any act of the council are
defective they should be remedied,
but this should be done in a get-to-
together spirit with fairness toward
one another and with consideration
only Of the best welfare of the entire
city
Let the commissioners quit their
fussing and work together in peace
end harmony. They are Hpsetting
public confidence in the entire sys-
tenn under which they are working
by falling to cooperate where they
can just as well do so.

them Ii out Of the question. Riders
living In such localities. in order &c
reach streets paved or otherwise
IN condition to ride upon, must
either use the sidewalks or walk and
push their machines. Where riders
use wheels IN going to and from work
or in their ordinary business the d.
priving Of them Of the privilege Of
riding on the walks IL q real hardship.
AS a rule such persons are careful
to avoid placing pedestrians In peril
and they do not "scorch''
However, looking at 1t from The
broader view, a reasonable enforce
merit Of the ordinance ought not De
objected to. The ordinary boy rid.lg

pedestrians. Coasting on the wallis

Of course II should be prevented. Rad
ing on walks where there are pave1
streets or good, smooth roadways is
likewise inexcusable.
The object of the city administi a.

Some Interesting Facts.

How many people in this country,
not especially interested in the growth
of cotton. would guess that Missouri
plants three times as many acres of
cotton 40 Virginia does? This year
Missouri has $4,000 acres planted in
cotton, and Virginia has $1,000 acres.
This Information will be a sumner
to many q reader
But Texas, the imperial state of
Texas. has 1885, 900 acres In cotton
this year. Think Of that! And the
value ,of the Texas crop is estimated
at $2s1. 2e2. 900.
But corn 10 still king. The corn
crop Of 1910 was worth $3.50, 000, 900
This was nearly double what the cot
ton crop was worth.
This year there is q total Of 81, 900, :
900 acres in cotton and 1t is estimated
that the crop will bring something
over $500. 100000. =
The United States produces two
thirds OF the entire cotton crop Of
The world. The art Of making cotton
loths has advanced wonderfully dur
ing the last few years. There are nov
a dozen different kinds where there
was formerly only one. Finer grades
OF cotton goods are taking the place
formerly occupied by SILKS in the pop
ular taste

wen as the body. That is. by health
full exercise our morals are improved.
We are brought into the right mental
attitude toward life because of the
more normal workings of our physical
functions.
1.-THE old idea that one who devoted
time to physical training was neglect
ing the mind is wrong. We have al
ways before US the example of the
Greeks, who excelIed in all manner
Of athletic sports and proved the su-
periority Of their intellectual powers as
well as the perfection Of their bodily
prowess.
There are certain exercises, such
as deep breathing, twisting and bend
ing the body until the hands touch the
floor without bending the knees. and
other gymnastics of a similar nature
which every person can easily per-
form and which give us the necessary
outlet for our animal spirits. These
exercises If performed correctly are
the first aid to health of mind and
body People who Systematically go
through such exercises and complain
that they receive little benefit from
them are undoubtedly not doing them
correctly.
There is another form Of exercise
which is especially beneficial to the
man working under a strain-namely
deep breathing. If people will devote
n few minutes occasionally to taking
long. deep breaths in the open air 1t
will be soon plain to each of them that
much of the nervous strain and irrt-
liability have been diminished. Exercise
is almost as beneficial to the health of
the individual as food and water"

The School Election.

The standard of worth and eficien-
cy that has characterized tho persc'l-
mel of the membership of the Rock
Island board Of education for years
was upheld in the election of yester-
day when Allan D. WEIGH and S. r.
! Kenworthy were chosen TO succeed
/ c. H. Speidel and W. B. Mcintyre, Ie-
firing members who declined to stand
for reelection. The new members are
| representative citizens, native born.
are graduates of the Rock Island high
/ school, and their election will make
| three members of the high school
| alumni on the board. H. H. Cleave-
land, being the other.
| The manifest design to conduct a
still hunt against the announced can
/ didates created a little scare" dur
| ing the day and brought out a heavier
vote, perhaps, than would otherwise
have been the case. So well have tic
people become satisfied with the Wa
the schools are run that unless d
| contest Is on they pay little attention
to the elections. taking it for granted
that the men brought out are Of the
right kind. Yesterdays experience
should serve to teach a lesson,
through which is that the first duly
of citizenship Is to vote, regardiccs
of conditions.
The determination to rebuke the
still hunt plans of yesterday was
prompted by two reasons. The fiji =
was that the people abhore such tao
tics under all circumstances. They
question the motive and consider it
an attempt to put something Over"
when the public is not looking. They
want TO know their candidates in al
vance and they do not want anyone
to serve them whom they do not get
a chance TO look at before hand. In
the second place, the respected Gus
toms of years standing have removed
the school system absolutely from pcl
itics, and the candidates of the opp
sition yesterday were entirely poilii-
cal They represented the sociali3tic
party. So the idea of the spirit OF
partisanship cropping into the school
system was resented and repudiai ed.
The two candidates who were gensr-
ally accepted were both democrats brt
that cut no figure, as the two retire 9
members were elected as democrats
and it was conceded to be proper that
democrats should be elected. Accord
ingly republicans and democrats work
ed side by side for the success Of
WEIGH and Kenworthy. A year ago
H. H. CIeaveland and A G. Anderson
both republicans were elected -
democrats as well as republicans ~
succeed &c. Denkmann and DR.. ]. W.
Stewart.
1t is only by this broad-mindednes 50
that considers fitness first, that recog-
nizes no political lines, that looks be-
yond considerations of politics that
the schools of Rock Island can he
conducted along the lines that haze
made them what they are today.
