President and Prohibition

Omaha, Oct. 2s.--To the editor Of
The Bee: The failure Of President
Wilson to sign the prohibition bill
has placed his political party in an
unfavorable light before the public.
How an intelligent, Christian, Ameri-
can citizen and gentleman could
have Numbered into such error is
beyond human comprehension
Either the booze business Is good or
1t is bad. II 1t is good, it is as good
after January l as before that date
If it Is bad, 1t Is as bad now as 1t
will be then. Social unrest plus
booze equals anarchy. In matters
where great moral principle is in
volved, no man has right to COM
promise. Prohibition Is a great
moral principle, or It isn't. If it
isn't, then let's have all the rum
and buns the country can accom-
modate. If prohibition is a great
moral principle. then President Will
son. by his wavering, has made sew
eral million more republican votes
in 1920. 1t may be matter of
sincere rejoicing on the part of the
moral citizens Of this country that
a republican instead Of democratic
congress sits in Washington.
Ex-DEMOCRAT.

arc the proper type to make a dis
lance runner, one question will be,
Have | the correct build?" Rum
ners Of ability. like race horses, APP
pear with variety of physical char
acteristics; there have been winners
who were short and stocky, and
those who were tall and rangy. The
build of man is much less i'm
portant than the following f1ctors:
strength, endurance and determin-
alton; a g:td heart, good lungs,
good stomach, and good muscles
not necessarily large. All of these
factors may rot be present iii be-
ginner, but are enumerated as be-
ing found in the winners. Strength,
endurance, and even nerve, are the
result of careful and consistent
training.
2. Style of Running.
Make an effort to perfect your
style. Adopt a 1.-THE, easy, free,
natural stride, keeping muscles of
the arms, trunk and neck relaxed,
also relax as much as possible each
muscle of the thigh, calf or foot at
the instant its individual task in the
stride has been completed. In geing
up hill, shorten the stride and in
cline the body forward. Keep eyes
off the ground.
5. Training,
Training is the paramount re-
quirement. Work is necessary to-
build up all parts of the body.
Three times for the first two or
three weeks Of the season is often
enough to work out. Learn to
judge your pace. Confine practice
to the turf rather than hard streets

oath he must of necessity become

"The record of the graduates
from the scouts to the military ser
vice has been excellent, record to
thrill the Scouts with pride.
"The Boy Scouts of America have
done splendid work in the efforts to
keep up men at the front in good
shape. In all the drives for Liberty
Loans their work has been increas-
ingly valuable. The instruction re-
ceived by the lads spells prepared
ness for good citizenship and for the
living of clean, upright, moral lives.

ment may wax stronger and stronger
