Most men who follow sedentary en-
ploynent realize the need of some kind
of exercise to keep themselves in good
physical condition for the strenuous bat
tie which must be waged for success in
all walks Of life.
The task Of making a living In any
profession or business is one which will
tax the constitution OF the strongest.
Most men have recognized their need
but have not known just how TO supply
IT, They do not know how to fortify
themselves against the strain which they
must endure year after year What man
does not wish to tackle his business
problems in the morning with a clear
head and vitality enough TO carry him
through the day without feeling as
though he had been dragged through Q
knothole.
Some men are too fat, others are too
thin. and most of them are soft They
know 1t, but either through indifference
or pressure Of business they go Just Is
long as they can keep out Of the hands
OF the doctor. Some men handle their
bodies the same as they do their auto
rnobiles-driye them until something
breaks. They fear apoplexy. gout and
other Ills that come with obesity, but
how to prevent it--that Is the problem.

CONDITIONS REGARDED
DANGEROUS TO TRAFFIC
Congress Heights Association Di-
rects Attention to Nichols Avenue.
Armor Plant Project Approved.

, Dangerous traffic conditions on Mich
OILS avenue were the subject of reso-
lutions adopted at the meeting las,
night of the Public Improvement AS
sociati Of Congress Heights.
1t was stated that conditions on the
avenue, because of a high board fence
around a portion of the grounds of the
Government Hospital for the Insane
are such that a serious accident is only
a question of time.
Speakers pointed out that when Mich
OILS avenue was extended its direction
was changed so that a part of the
street car track is now directly against
the high board fence. This condition,
it was shown, exists at turn. the
fence obstructing the view so that
drivers or motorists approaching the
spot cannot see a street car or other
vehicles approaching from the oppo-
site direction.
Persons using the road between Ala
bama avenue and the end Oh the street
car line have to croaS the tracks Iour
times, according to testimony given
at the meeting. Resolutions calling on
the Commissioners to have this danger
Gus condition remedied were adopted.

Support of the effort to bring the
eleven-million- dollar government ar
NOR plate plant to Washington was
unanimously voted. f. J. Newcomb
presented the matter and stated that
there were available a number of de-
sira BILE sites along the Anacostia and
Potomac rivers. He advocated a site
near Congress Heights.

last ten or 1ifteen years the population
Of the District had increased ABOUT
$4,000; that during that time only one
industrial plant had been Established.
and that something had to be done if
all of the new residents of the Dis
trict are to find employment.

Hog market developed further
strength today, sales for the most
part being quoted as 010c higher,
although toward the close action was
not quite so good as some of the late
business was not over a nickel high
er. Best price for the day was 1915,
while the bulk of sales were at a
spread of $40 a $50.
Nothing new or startling today in
the shee phouse. Supply was too
limited to afford a basis for com
parison, and news from outside
points did not indicate any material
changes in prices.
