If pep" is good thing for rats to

II is!
Now, barking back to the college pro
fessor: He maintains that rats lose their
pep" by being too well fed, by being
pampered, kept too warm, allowed lie
of leisure.
Man loses his pep" much the same
way. If he didn't start with any, the
chances are that his dad or grandpa, or
both, lost the family's share OF pep
that way.
It takes several generations to breed
pep" into a rat or q man, but good re
suits are apparent from the very begin
ming.
Undoubtedly any man with handful
of brains in his head can get some pep
introduced into his system. Possibly
the best way TO start it would be to stop
the things that destroy ''pep'-over-
feeding, overidleness and pampering

road and operate it as test of the feast

Rotten Encouragement and specula-

hands of a receiver. Congress is asked
to take a broken egg and see what sort
Of chicken it can raise therefrom
