HURT BY LACK OF EXERCISE
Use of Automobiles, Rapidly Be- coming Nation of Dyspeptics.

Excessive automobile riding Is said to be the cause of many ailments of the digestive, the respiratory and the circulation organs. A student asked one of his professors which branch of the medical profession he regard ed as the most remunerative.
 If l were again a young man, just starting out" the professor replied, q would choose the digestive tract. Americans are playing havoc with that part of their anatomy. With automo- bile riding rapidly replacing the good old habit Of walking, people don't get enough exercise to digest properly Result: Better business for the physi- clans.
 "Next to the alimentary troubles the heart and lungs are involved, the mus cles of these organs are weakened both by lack of exercise and by the ill-nourished condition of the blood due to hasty eating. You see it all comes back to the question of eating the digestive tract. So that, It seems to me, should prove to be the branch of the profession to which l would give first choice"

His Comment

AS long as there are big footed, praying hobhledehoys, neither boys nor men. and as long as the fool killer negleets his duty" commented old Festus Pester, as he gazed upon a mess of youthful and blawhawing joy riders, just that long there will be that kind of booby business cut up. was once exactly that sort of a lout myself; substitute a buggy and a clumsy horse for that motor car and look back few dozen years into the dim past and you have me, conceit, blather, total disregard for the rights and privileges of others, and all. Boys always were and always will be the same at that age. And just as the older persons of my day fervently hoped l would break my worthless neck by my own foolishness, now hope those yaw-hawing idiots will break theirs. But they won't; didn't mine.'-Kansas City Star.

TOWN OF PECULIAR HISTORY
settlement in Arkansas Had It's Or. leln in the Failure of Italian
 Colony Elsewhere.

The dramatic story of Tontitown in Arkansas all that remains of an Ital, Ian colonization plan instituted by Austin Corbin. a New York financier, about fifty years ago, is told by Bruno Roselli in the Century. In the latter half of the nineteenth century Corbin purchased large tracts of cotton lands along the lower Mississippi and made arrangements with the mayor of Rome to send a number of Italian families as settlers for the new colony, which was to be named Sunnyside
 In the new colony malaria fever, a tropical disease unknown to the ltal- ians, broke out in their new habita- tion, and the settlers became panic stricken. Having no place to go, they began sending out appeals to Italian consuls in the larger American cities, but their appeals remained unheeded until they reached the ears of Father Bandini, Tuscan priest of New York, who immediately started for Sunny eide.
 Net having the means of covering transportation costs If he were to take them out of the region they were Tn the priest began to lead the Italians out of the malarial region on foot. They finally reached the spot where Arkansas, Kansas and Oklahoma touch borders. They purchased a good many acres of land with S1,o00 they saved, felled the trees out of which they built homes for themselves and a chapel and named the new settlement Tontitown, after the pioneer Tonti, who was the first Italian known to have set foot in Arkansas.

Natural Question.

lad of 15 was driving along a country road, taking load of calves to market. when he chanced to meet company of young folks who were evidently out for pleasure exeur- sion. The young men of the party, thinking to amuse themselves and the company at the boys expense, began to initiate the bleating of the calves.
 But their merriment was of short duration, for, without moments hesi- tatioli, as the vehicles were passing, the country lad called out to his would be torInentors:

The fact that property own
ers in this country are organ
lied and control the govern
ment must necessarily be
recognized as precluding to a
large extent the establishing
fof soviet rule in the United
States. Bolshevik leaders in
Russia realize conditions here
are different than those which
obtained in old Russia, where
the propertied class being un-
organized fell easily under the
first waves of the soviet revo-
luton. The efforts now being
put forth by the department
of justice, supplemented by
a stimulated teaching of the
principles of an Americanism
which upholds private pro-
perty rights, the activities of
the American Legion, and
coming drastic cnactments by
congress, all bid fare to make
this a barren soil for the pro-
pagation of anything tending
toward a system of commun-
ism. That conditions in
America are not favorable for
revolution must be fairly clear
to leaders in the worlds
affairs whether they favor or
oppose what is called bolshe-
visim.

TEACHERS MET AT BOISE
Problems and Solutions Discussed
at Annual Meeting.

Sup't L. O. Swenson of the
Rathdrum public schools gives The
Tribune the following summary Of
action taken at, and thots concern
ing, the recent state teachers
meeting:
''The State Education association
met at Boise during the holidays.
We have had to open our eyes to
many things the last year or two,
admitting that we have failed to
accomplish much that we have
taken for granted we were doing.
Also, it is evident now that the
scope Of school work must be made
very much broader, for the rem
edles of our country's ills lay in
educating the youth. That much
is conceded everywhere. And so
it is more important than ever that
school folks deliberate together and
exchange ideas.
zone of the most interesting
features of the meeting was the
evidence at every hand of a fine
democratic spirit among the school
men. No one had a better-than-
thou attitude. Each was anxious
for light he might gain from an
other. The state department was
sollcitous of information as to how
problems had been met in the diff.
erent quarters of the state, but die
tated no stereotyped measures for
their solution. On the train, in
the hotel lobby, on the street,
everywhere the big topic of CONVEX
Sation was "shop". And from this
open minded attitude results are
bound to come.
zone of the important matters
on which definite action was take

whole was conducted by the execu.
