Hanging just Fun
For Farmer Burns


Farmer Burns, the great old-time
wrestling champion, who discovered
Frank Gotch and taught the Iowa
farmer all he knew, was born to be
hung, but not to die that way. Hang
ing did not inconvenience him at all.
He tried it once on a wager and
small wager at that. They arranged
regular scaffold' with three foot
drop, adjusted the hangman's moose
with the knot snuggled under Burns
left ear, according to custom, and
sprung the drop.
The wrestler's 160 pounds brought
up with a jerk that made the rope
hum like a fiddle string and he hung
suspended by the neck for nearly 3
minutes. Throughout that time he
carried on a conversation with the
bystanders, joking and kidding his
"executioners." He was cut down
none the worse for wear.
How did he do it? He had ex-
ercised and strengthened his neck
muscles through long years of train
ing so that they. were strong enough
to prevent the construction of his
windpipe even from the pull of the
hangman's moose. In those days, the
strangle hold was not barred and
Burns had trained himself so that
when Stranger Lewis or any of the
other strong armed grapplers secured
and applied that hold the farmer
could work his head free from the
dangerous grasp.
You do not have to flop to the
wrestling mat to have the strangle
hold applied to you nowadays. Hard
luck or hard times or illness or dis
aster or old age may shut your fnan-
cial wind off at any time, and grad
ually force your shoulders closer to |
the padded canvass until the slap
of the referees hand on your oppo-
nent's back declares you the loser
of the struggle.
But you can strengthen your neck,
just as Farmer Burns did. Constant
and regular exercise in saving will do
it, the putting aside of a certain def
mite amount of the envelope each |
pay day. Burns used weights to ex-
ercise his neck muscles. War Saw
ings Stamps, Treasury Savings GER
tificates and Liberty Bonds are the
best apparatus for financial exer-
else. They can be adjusted to the f.
nancial strength of any neck, rich or
