SHEDDING LIGHT ON
PAST AND RELIGION,
"LANTERN" APPEARS

The Lantern, new and mysteri-
Gus publication, made its appear
ance on the streets of Albuquer-
que yesterday. Covering the CEN
trail part of one sheet with space
open to advertising on either side,
the Lantern declared itself to be
an unbiased, non partisan,
omni-partisan, constructive agent
breathing American principle in
every line, capable of discerning
merit as well as fault. and whose
sole aim is universal advantage and
the welfare of mankind.
The name of the editor and pub
Usher was not carried and no adj
dress was given further than that
Of THE Lantern, Albuquerque, n.
M" Paragraphs taken at random
follow:
THE intelligent people of this
nation are today being bribed to
silence-by business interests, by
a job, by appreciation. You know
what's going on; buC you sidestep
your responsibility for the story or
the comfort of success"
THE league of nations is the
most subtle, most loathsome. most
dastardly outrage that corrupted
power has ever presumed to fo'st
upon a credulous society. The
charge that it means international
ism is an ingenious lie! 1t is not
socialism. 1t will not safeguard
democracy. 1t is not a progressive,
nor is it a peace measure in any
sense. 1t is the monster octopus of
autocratic greed reaching out with
its Shiny and repulsive tentacles to
suck the life blood of civilization,
al<d to drag beneath a sea of uni
versal militarism every noble and
humane endeavor."
During the periods of darkness
in the worlds history, when lew
men possessed the arts even of
reading and writing, it was found
necessary to instruct them in fig-
urative language which could be
read, or heard by all men each ae-
cording to his own state OF lntelli-
gence. Thus the church at times
ruled monarchs and directed the
destinies of nations. But in the
present age of intellectual develop
ment. this subterfuge is not only
unnecessary, but, on account OF the
PRONUNCIATION of vicious propasan-
da arraigning not without cauoe
the integrity of the church II pc
comes an actual menace 10 peace
and progress. Therefore, mas an
Almighty Providence seen fit to SEND
YOU the Lantern to be a light unto
your feet

CRITICS GIVE HIGH
PRAISE TO COBB IN
"IHE DESERT SCORPION

The recent claim of the Art-O-
Graf Film company of Denver,
that in Edmund f.. Cobb, its lead
ing man, it has under contract
Americas fastest rising film star,
is justified in the opinion of crit
les, in the company's latest re-
lease, THE Desert Scorpion" which
was at the "B' yesterday and
which is being repeated today.
Cobb's work stamps him as
finished actor - one des-
tined to cut his niche in the movie
worlds loftiest hall of fame.
Critics who saw the first run of
'The Desert Scorpion" declare
that Cobbs easy-going manner is a
treat to behold. He gets way from
any semblance of unstagedness and
plays the role of a young western
er with a precision that is pleasing
to the eye of even the most skepti-
cal of critics.
Cobb's extraordinary feats in this
picture occur so frequently that
most of their hazardous meanings
are lost to the audience. His ride
over a two-fOot flume, rising ma
Jestically over a span of more than
200 feet. is executed with such
speed that it gets by even the closest
scrutiny. Those familiar with the
western country, however, are
thrilled with this feat of daring.
In the shooting of THE Desert
Scorpion" Cobbs comes with an
ace of suffocation. In one scene he
is completely buried under a small
sand hill, breathing through the
medium of a reed. Vida Johnson,
cast opposite Cobb, withdraws the
reed just a trifle too hurriedly,
leaving the luckless Cobb without
breathing facilities. His cue to
emerge from his sand habitation
comes just when he is on the very
verge of suffocation.

Embdlmers Meeting
To Be Fun of Life
On Thirteenth Year

mot a dead one in the bunch"
said Fred Crollott, local under
taker, in predicting last right that
at least thirty members of the New
Mexico Funeral Directors and EN-
balmers' association would attend
the annual convention to be held
here Tuesday and Wednesday.
Sessions will probably be held at
the Chamber of Commerce and will
be devoted largely to discussion of
professional subjects. Demon
STATIONS and moving pictures will
form part of the program.
All licensed embalmers in the
state are members of the associa-
ton and advance indications are
that there will be a representative
from every important town in the
state.
The fact that the convention IS
the thirteenth annual session of
the boil holds no ominous portent,
according to Mr. Crollott.
1T will he the liveliest convention
that has been held in Albuquerque
this year" he declared.

ON HIGH RENTS
HAS VOLUNTEERS
Move Against Proposed New
Advances; Finds Many

Determined to get information
regarding present high rents. and
any contemplated increases on the
part of landlords, as we'll, the
Chamber of Commerce has set out
TO conduct an investigation of con-
ditions from every source. Some
of this information. it was learned,
will be gathered from real estate
men and rental agencies. In some
cases the owners OF rental prop
erty will be called upon directly
for information.
Since the directors of the cham
Der, Friday night. endorsed and
outlined campaign to force down
high rents the office of Secretary
Watkins has been besieged with
personal and telephone calls from
those offering information to sup
port the contention that some
thing must be done about rents In
Albuquerque, and done at once"
The reports concern rentals
charged within a range of SIS a

These reports indicate that some
landlords, who raised rents a time
or two during the past two years.
already have raised. or contem-
plate raising them again, now that
the fall season shows that houses
and rooms are scarce and the de-
mand for them Increasing as a re-
suit of arrival of health seekers.
This should not be done, according
to Secretary Watkins. Such prac-
tees, he contends, react against
all the work the Chamber of Com
merce can do toward interesting
health seekers and promoters of
business enterprises in the city.

who was in charge of the depart
ment of music last year at the state
university, has returned to Albu-

AUTOS MAY PARK IN
MCCLELLAN SQUARE
WHEN cox is HERE

Arrangements have been made
by Col. D. X. b. Sellers to allow
those who come to Albuquerque in
automobiles at the time of Cover
nor Cox's visit here to park their
cars in Mcclellan square. No
charge will be made and the cars
will have police protection.
As the garages will probably be
full and the streets crowded, this
measure will safeguard the tourist.
Colonel Sellers says. A number of
seats will be reserved in the armory
for disabled service men and
ushers will be provided.
Colonel Sellers has made in
quries as to the condition of roads
leading to Albuquerque and finds
that from Socorro south, north to
Las Vegas. west to Gallup and east
to the Estancia and Pecos valleys
the roads are in the best condition
they have been in this season, and
are all passable Probably the
worst stretch is between here and
Isleta, he said.

HOW TO BE HEALTHY
by George j. Fisher, NJ. ID.

Take particular notice of a
large number of people as they
pass by on the street. Note the
difference in their carriage, Some
are erect, brisk, spendid- looking;
| but a goodly number are stoOp-
shouldered, narrow Chested, and
sluggish. What a remarkable diff
ference it makes whether an indi-
vidual has good posture or poor.
An erect bearing can be ac-
CURED. Round shoulders, con-
stricted chest are due to bad
habits in sitting and standing.
Now, poor posture is a serious
matter because:
1t Affects Health--The shoulders
droop forward the chest is flat
tened, the abdomen is forced
downward and consequently the
circulation of the blood, the free
play of the lungs, and the diges-
tion are interfered with.
1t Affects Looks-Persons who
stand and walk erect are attrac-
tive They are noticed on the
other hand many d person who
would otherwise be very attrac-
tive spoils his or her appearance
by round shoulders and a slCven-
ly gait.
1t Affects Ones Business
Chances--Nine times out of ten an
employer, granted that the ability
of the applicants is equal, will
choose the outstanding, shoulder
square individual and reject the
individual of poor posture. Good
posture is an economic asset. 1t
not only pays to be straight--it
also pays to walk straight.
1t Affects Ones Feelings-The
man who walks erect, with head
and chest up, is optimistic, cheer
full, confident. The man who is
depressed, cheerless, walks with a
shuttle, droops at the shoulders,
and allows his chin to rest upon
his chest.
If one who is accustomed to
walk carelessly and in poor pos
ture will change to an erect bear
ing he will notice a remarkable
change in his feelings and tenn
perment. A good posture is an
aid to character.
What causes habitual poor pos
ture?
Bad Sitting Position-Notlce how
frequently boy will slide for
ward in a chair and literally sit
on the edge of his spine. Note the
school girl at her desk at which
she doubles over until her back
almost spells the letter S.
Bad Standing Position-Note
how some people, and they are
many, when standing rest on one
leg and throw strain on hip and
spine. Then, too, carrying loads
with one arm or one shoulder
constantly serves to develop one
side of the body more than an
other so that finally the pull of
the muscles on one side is greater
and this crooks the spine side
ways and brings the shoulder down
on one side.
ture is always to maintain it.
Stand erect, raise the head and
chest. Sit erect Do all your work
in these positions and then You
will find that the muscles will be-
come strong and hold you there.
Special exercises while maintain
ing the erect position will help. In
other words, the way to get good
posture is to practice it. There is
no other magic way. OF course in
extreme cases you will need a
doctors advice.
Send to the American Posture
League, Inc, / Madison avenue,
New York, for their charts on
what proper posture is, and then
everlasting practice keeping head
and chest up. Good posture can
be acquired by the average per-
son. People have poor posture be-
cause they practice poor posture.
