keokuk Council Listens to Armory
Coliseum Plan In Connection
With Building Of
Their Own.
NO ACTION IS TAKEN
II is Said by Members, However, That
the Plan Will be live stigated
and Further Report
Made.

At a meeting of Keokuk council
No. 400, United Commercial Travel
ers, Saturday evening, the question
of a permanent lodge home in con-
nection with the oliseum-armory
proposition was brought up and dis
cussed freely by the members of the
order. No definite action was taken
at the time. but it is said by some
of the members that it is more than
probable that the council will CO.
operate with the committee in the
plan which has been proposed.
The U. G. T. organization is
strong one in Keokuk, and the fact
that this body Of boosters is thinking
of the plan whereby the coliseum and
armory may be reality, makes the
proposition look like a good one. The
council expects to investigate all of
the phases of the matter and will
take the question up little later
when the report is complete.
The plan which was suggested to
the council seemed to find favor with
many of the members, and it will be
considered at some length.
Report was made to the armory
committee in the matter this morning.
Following the business session
Saturday evening, social session
was held.

Don't be a sIumper if you would
have perfect figure.
Many women, and men, too, have
spoiled perfect bodies by not know
ing how to stand, how to sit, how to
lie.
Rare are the figures of growing
girls and adult women that cannot
be improved by simple rules.
And the first of these is keep your
self up tall.
I do not say, keep yourself up
straight" Most people when told to
stand up straight, throw themselves
into an unnatural position.
1t is not hard to learn to stand
correctly. Here is the recipe:
Place a book, cushion or bag of
something on your head and balance
it. Note the exact position of your
shoulders, chest and back. Practice
this position until you naturally as
sumo it.
In sitting correctly, you take the
same position from the hips up as
you do when standing correctly. If
you cannot get this position, bal
ance something on your head when
you sit down. You will find you will
always bend forward and backward
from the hips.
Correct lying is practiced by an ex-
traOrdinaTily small number of peo-
pie.
Don't use pillow or pillows under
your head.
Pillows interfere with resting and
relaxing the back. They cause the
neck and shoulders to be rounded.
The place for pillow is under the
small of the back. A small pillow in
that position enables the back to rest
