and Russians who are not interned.
They are required TO report twice

advantages which have been given
il in South America by the Euro

Richardson. the Studebaker repre-
sentative in the lower part of South
America. who has just returned
home. Mr.. Richardson has spent
the last two years in Argentina, Bra

manufacturers are, generally speak
ing. taking advantage of the trade
opportunities opened TO them by the
war. but that European competi-
ton supported by the cheaper trans
portation rates which it will have
may prove serious at the end of the
European war.
In regard TO South American op-
portunities Mr. Richardson said
that they were many but he warned
young men without the proper men
tai and moral qualifications. and
without some capital and a knOwl-
edge of the spanish tongue against
going to the southern continent.
Universal military training has
proved itself in South America and
Mr.. Richardson is a strong advo-
cate of universal training a. a re-
suit of his knowledge of il in South
American countries. He believes
there is a possibility that Brazil
may get into the war but does lOt
think Chill and the Argentina will
enter. Business in South America
has been somewhat injured by the
failure of the harvests which have
just been reaped. but wartime
prices should, with a good harvest
the coming spring, bring returned
prosperity.
The only South Bend industries
which figure to any extent in South
American trade are the Studebaker
corporation. the oliver Pillow CO. and
the Singer Sewing Machine Co.
American cars, of which very few
we're sold before the war in South
America, are now in large demand.

million loaves, il is estimated. and it
is feared additional smaller bakeries
will be forced TO close Immediately.
Owners Of the plants and MEM

declared It's intention of standing
firm, and il was reported there was
little likelihood of an immediate set

both sides in the hope of settling the
controversy.

If the strike is not settled within
a reasonable time it is possible that
the federal government may take

either by communicating a number
of the plants and operating them TO

LUNA EJfAIN.
WONDER how many Of my
readers know how to rest. NO,
this isn't an absurd statement.
There are hundreds and hun
dreds Of persons who 60 to bed re-
ligiously at 10 o'clock and arise at 3
o'clock who think they are following
natures law that every one must have
at least eight hours sleep, but who
upon arising are more tired in body
and mind than many persons who nave
had but ST.: or seven hours sleep. Per-
haps the biggest reason why the sleep
has not benefited them is that their
bodies have not been in the proper
position and have not been properly
relaxed.
The majority of us are too tired to
rest when night comes. The following
hints will be of great benefit:
If the circulation is sluggish the
body should be rubbed with Turkish
towel until there is a fine glow all
over the skin. Rub from the feet up
ward and the hands upward. Hot foot
baths, general warm baths and cold
room are conducive to sleep. Mental
work should be laid aside several
hours before retiring. Avoid late sup
pers and give up coffee il possible. If
taken at all it should be drunk for
breakfast only. Any reading or
amusement INDUCED in before retir-
ing should be of an amusing nature
nothing to excite the nerves.
Needless to say. all clothing worn
during the day must be removed be-
fore retiring and the body covered
with a clean comfortable nightgown.
To WOO sleep lie fiat on the back with
the arms over the head, with every
muscle relaxed. Keep this position for
few minutes and then lay the arms
alongside the body. Stay in this po-
sition for five minutes or more and
then lift the legs alternately at right
angles with the body. Bend the knee
and pull the ankle so that the heel
