THE often offered criticism that
Americans lack the develop
ment OF an outdoor life seems
likely before long to have little appli-
cation to American women, Surely
TO summer of the past saw more
girls and women entering with en-
thusIasm into all manner of outdoor
sport than have been observed in the
summer Of 1916.
OF all the manifestations of the
outdoor spirit that have marked the
present summer none has been more
impressive or at times more start.

ing spirit and the Greek-like express

Back to Nature" requires an aban-
donment of conventional clothes. One
cannot 90 back" in the stir or in

certain ways from those of Miss
MolIer but the point of emphasis in
the present furore is for natural
freedom without the clothes rcstric-
tons or the cramping dancing for
mulas that once made outdoor dane
ing an academic affair
The word dancing often sounds
anomalous when applied to the
flights over field, or the pool plunges
that mark these summer art express
slons. When music is added, whether
it be allegro or allegretto, the mean
ing is naturally deepened. The ex-
presslons Of gayety in the faces Of
the dancers is often to be explained
by music not translated in pictures.
Summer schools OF physical eX-
preston" quite logically are often
found under the supervision of a
physician Outdoor freedom, ideal as
it is, has its opportunities for excess,
for hazards OF eXertion or exposure
The first principle of all physical eX-
preston must be physical soundness,
and soundness must be earned or
preserved by reasonable care as to
all practical conditions. Outdoor pu.

Of the other boys have decided to
buy pure-bred SOW pigs with which
TO start in the pure bred hog husi-

Farm when needed. The county agent
has undertaken to look up the best
available pigs for the club members.
This club and future pig clubs will
tend 70 get the farmers Of the county
back into hog raising. a branch OF
farming which has fallen behind in
recent years.
AS soon as the members OF this
pioneer club secure their pure-bred
SOW pigs, they will form a club bv
themselves, so as to compde with
the less experienced boys who will
start this month with grade pigs. and
who will get into the pure-bred busi-
now being formed in the vicinity OF
Townsend. Boys and girls. ten wear,
old. or older may Join.
A great deal OF credit is due IN,

The plans adopted for the club we're

the county agent, who gave each
owner an outline as TO good method

while even those whose expenses
were nearly twice that much per

It Is only fair to say that in tho last

ORPET'S LAWYERS
END PLEAS TO-DAY
State to Punish All Who Refused
to Testify.

Waukcgan, H., July 13.-The last
word in defence of William Orpet, on
trial for the murder Of Marian Lam
bert, will have been said tomorrow,
when James H. Wilkerson, chief coun-
sci for the accused man, finishes the
argument which he began to-day.
Mr. Wilkerson has confined his pres
entation TO a review Of Orpet's acts
just preceding and following the death
of Miss Lambert The closing argu.
ment of the state remains to be made.
and with this address six lawyers in
all will have been heard.
A grand jury summons was served
to-day on Mrs. Edwin Taylor, at whose
house, in Madison, Wis, Orpet board
ed. She had declined to testify as TO
whether Orpet's bed had been slept in
on the night of the day of the girls
death by poison, which formed part
of the defendants alibi. The summons
to-day is said to be part of plan OF
States Attorney Dady TO punish those
who have refused to testify, as well as
others who are accused of activity in
influencing witnesses.
