GIVES GRADUATION ADDRESS

"As education goes, so goes produc-
ton" said DIR. Charles william Dabney,
president OF the University Of Cincinnati,
in his address to the Commercial club at
the public affairs luncheon at noon. He
talked Of the place Of science in BUSINESS
and in the development of a city. He
pointed out that when man considers
opening a large manufacturing plant Of
any kind. he goes TO the engineer, the
scientific man. who will draw his plans
for him, determine his location for him
and work. out the details. lie said at
present he has call from large manu-
facturer Of biscuits who wants him to find
him a good chemist who can come in and
test all the materials chemically and
stop the great waste OF material that is
at present going on in the plant.
He gave the instance OF the young man
who went into the tobacco factory in the
south and saw the crude methods that
were being used. The young man made
complete new set OF plans, invented
some machinery to do the mixing and
flavoring that had before been done by
hand. invented a machine 70 sew the
bags and finally succeeded in building

Of the age. In touching the relation Of
science TO the affairs Of city, he said
I'VE found some time ago that we had
exactly fifty-seven different, separate
and distinct charitable organizations in
Cincinnati. A young scientific man made
an investigation TO shows what these
we're doing. lie showed how tremen-
dously they duplicated one another's
work. He showed that in one instance

Causes of Obesity
By ANToINETTE DoNNELLY.
copyright 1915. by Antoinette Don

SCopyrlght 1910, py Antolnette Don
nelly)
Obesity is disease OF civilization.
In his wild state man is thin. So
are wild animals. The reason for this
is opportunities to live unhygienically
do not abound in the wild state as they
do in civilization. On tho other hand,
with his superior knowledge, civilized
man could live more hygienically than
saSageS wild animals II he We're
willing 10 use il.
Eating too much and eating the
wrong thing are the two besetting sins
against hygiene living. Eating too
much isn't frequent a cause Of
obesity as is generally supposed. The
biggest eater know is about the thin
nest man ! know, and YOU proba bly,
have observed this among your ac-
quaintances. 1t is true. too, that some
fat folks are small eaters. However,
eating too much is responsible for
great deal of obesity. The remedy is
simple enough If there is any will
power TO back II up.
Eating the wrong thing is more ex-
cusable. IL is hard to designate eN
actly what are wrong things. because
: what is wrong for one person isn't
wrong for another. Generally speak
ing, however. starchy foods are wrong
foods. SO is sugar in quantities and fat
meats. Cream and milk and butter
are wrong things for you If YOU want
TO keep slim.
The relation OF your liver to hygienic
living Is often overlooked. If your
liver is sluggish or overworked there
is tendency TO fat and many other
unhyEienic complicati lions.
Do not strain and weaken your liver
by unhygicnic living and dietetic eX-
Cesses III your youth. Carefully cherish
and conserve IL, so that IL can pro-
f-xy hat ia
YOU old before your time.
Work your muscles every day. If
you are unfortunate enough TO have
no incentive to work them, find one.
The fight against obesity should DO an
incentive. for fat is easier TO ward off
than IL is to get rid of.
Perfect health and obesity are not
compatible. 1t is sign OF premature
old age for person 10 accumulate fat
unduly.
