EXERCISE.

Exercise IL the process Of making
a duty out Of physical recreation.
The world is full of happy young
men who are neglecting their work
In order to play golf, swim in gym
nasiums and walk over the green
April hills. That's all pleasure.
The world is also we'll supplied
with older men who drag themselves
away from their work with regret to
do the same things. That's exercise.
When man does no manual labor
except to trim coupons off a stack
OF bonds once month, his muscles
get az fiabby and gummy as. an old
printers roller and his liver begins
to loaf on the job. He must then
take exercise or fill tastefully de-
signed tomb considerably ahead of
scheduled time.
Taking exercise Is as pleasant as
taking medicine out of a bottle.
There is no more pathetic sight than
that OF a fat captain Of Industry
trudging down country lane on foot
with a valet carrying his sweater in
$6,OO0 limousine close behind.
Some of these people pay thous-
ands OF dollars in order to go to
Europe and trudge down country
lanes on foot, but that is not exer-
else. 1t is pleasure.
The government should pass an
amendment to the corporation law
making 1t criminal offense for dir
ectors to take exercise. Then all
capitalists would shrek with rage
and employ high-priced lawyers to
find loop hole in the law which
will enable them to chop two cords
of wood day.
This would be hard on the high
priced physicians, but it would pre-
serve our moneyed class and would
make exercise a pleasure.
Every one needs exercise but It ia
like salvation It is too free. If
there was a law against walking

Never, perhaps, has publicity played
such part in government undertake
Ing as it is taking in the campaign to
sell bonds in the third Liberty Loan.
Particularly in the Third Federal
Reserve District, the headquarters of
which is in Philadelphia, is the ad-
vertising idea in evidence.
The replica of Bartholdi's Statue of
Liberty erected in the center of
Broad street before the City Hall in
Philadelphia is here shown as it will
look upon completion.
1t will be over fifty feet in height
and the torch in Liberty's hand will
be Illuminated at night. The base
of the foundation is thirty-fve feet
by sixteen feet and twenty-five feet
high and is built of wood and iron.
1t Is seven feet square at the point
where the statue rests. In the foun-
dation there will be booths for the
taking of subscriptions to the third
Liberty Loan. Each subscriber will
be entitled to ascend the stairway to
the foot of the statue and drive into
the pedestal large headed tack bear
ing his initials. This will transform
the pedestal gradually from wooden
to a metal surface
In making the mould 10,100 pounds
of plaster of Paris was used and the
amount that went into the finished
statue was $500 pounds, making $1,000
pounds in all. Enough to lay thin
coating over the street of an entire
city block
An interesting point is that the
leading sculptor at work upon the
statue is of German birth but took out
his first papers two days after arriv-
ing in this country in 1893
A gigantic representation of Ameri-
can soldiers going over the top, back
ed by Liberty bond" to be placed
on the north side of City Hall, is an
other publicity stunt scheduled by the
Publicity Committee in Philadelphia
for the third Liberty Loan campaign.
This is the biggest cut-out figure

$4oo, 900 APPROPRIATED
FOR ARMENIAN RELIEF.

The War Council has appropriated
the sum of 100000 as q contribution
to the Americ&t Committee fer Arme-
MAN and Syrian relief, to cover the
months of February and March, 1913,
with the expectation that 100000 a
month for the following four months
will also be appropriated, but making
no commitment to that effect.
The War Council had already given
$1,800,000 to this committee in the
form of a contribution of 100000 a
month for the last six months of 1917
The restitution among the Armenians,
Syrians, Greeks and other suffering
races in the Russian Caucasus, Per-
STA, Asia Minor, Mesopotamia and
Syria Is on the increase, and those
peoples are more than ever dependent
on American charity as administered
in large part by the commissioners
and agents of the Committee for Ar
menian and Syrian Relief.

Shame Makes One Forget.

Forgetting is strange phenomenon.
According to the modern psychologists,
we are most apt to forget those things
that we do not want to remember-es-
pecially those of which we are
ashamed.
In an address on criminals who are
on the border line of insanity, deliv-
cred recently before the Clinical So
ciety of ST. Elizabeth's Hospital, Wash
ington, DIR. Leon Emile Duval told of
many mentally unbalanced men who in
their normal state could not remember
disgraceful deeds they had done, and
said this was to be explained on the
basis that at is the thing of which we
are ashamed and which conflicts with
the customs of society which Is soonest
relegated to the realm Of the uncon-
scious."

CLUB HOUSE FOR OFFICERS
PLANNED AT CAMP MERRITT.

What will be the first club house In
the Atlantic division designed exclu-
sively for officers is soon to be built at
Camp Merritt, New Jersey. More than
$4,000 has been donated to the Red
Cross for the purpose, and the plans
have already been drawn up.
While club for enlisted men was
recently given by Mrs. Merritt, widow
Of Gen. Wesley G. Merritt, no provi-
sion has heretofore been made for the
officers, and since thousands of them
pass through this military post en-
route to France the need is great.
The structure, covering 10000 feet
of ground space, one story in height, is
to include a billiard room and lounge,
dining room, kitchen, women's dining
and rest room, with barber shop and
five modern baths fitted with porcelain
tubs instead of showers.
