BRITISH WOMEN ARE
AGAINST EXCESSIVE
EXERCISE FOR GIRLS
Campaign in Interest of
Motherhood is Started by
Prominent English Women.

4 LONDON, June 9--(A. PA cam.
paign in the interest of motherhood
and against the ill-effects alleged to
result from girls going in for athletics
E. has been started here.
l a resolution was passed at meet
ing of managers of girls schools and
/ of women Who claimed to have made
a study of physical culture protesting
against the, present system of physical
education for girls as injurious TO fu-
ture generations A small committee
was formed to draw up and circulate
a manifesto on the subject.
Several letters favoring the move
ment were read. Sir James Crlchton
Browne, author OF books on mental
and Rervous Diseases wrote; "Physi-
fsl evereise and training are as neces-
sary to girls as to boys. but these
must have regard to physiological and
idevelopmental considerations. To ig-
more sexual differences is to court dis
aster in the long rum
Women who develop masculine in
stead of feminine instincts, wrote DR..
Arabella Kenealy, do this at the cost
/ OF the male potential which is trans
mitted by the father to the daughter
in trust for the male line. Athletic
women produce female offsprings
mainly and seldom have sons. When
sons are born to them. they are apt
to be puny and delicate, or generally
emasculate or of inferior type. The
cultured classes, who are mainly af-
flicted by athletic training are failing
to provide sons Of the fine physique
and the manly talents and initiative
which have set our Anglo-Saxon race
in the van of evolution
Miss Cowdray, the principal of a
girls high school. who moved the reso-
luton of protest, said that the girls
who had been trained to play hockey,
cricket and football suffered at child
birth. Sometimes the child suffered.
sometimes the mother and sometimes
one of them died. Eighty percent OF
| the girls she had known who had
been trained to become gymnastlc
mistresses had been incapaciated for
motherhood
! A girl had large store of vital and
nervous energy which she could draw

/ great crisis of motherhood. That
strength was a deposit account but if
she used it current account, as boy
could afford to do, her children would
pay the bill. She believed that the
/ Victorian girl was a better mother
than the modern athletic girl.
| Miss Radmar, director of ths
Egville Miehau School of Physical
Development, said that the feet were
the only part of girls body that need
be made strong. A woman's body
should be elastic and strong chests and
big muscles meant inelastic chests and
bodies. Drill apparatus should be
done away with.

CANNED GOODS LEFT IN
FRANCE BY j. s. ARMY
IS BOON TO HOUSEWIVES
Many Articles, Pork and Beans
for Instance Were Virtually
Unknown to French People.

PARIS. June ga. P.)-The
vast stock of canned foods left in
France by the American army and
now being sold to the public is proving
a boon to the French housewife.
She is now able to go to her usual
grovery store and buy canned goods
really canned in America, and contain
ing labels in real English-at a price
which is sometimes 500 percent cheap
er than the same variety of food can
ned by the French.
String beans, salmon. tuna fish.
eorned beef. potted ham, combinations
of vegetables and meat Of various
kinds and many others are now obtain-
able from the stock of things the Am.
erican army left behind and sold to
the French government.
Many of these things, pork and
beans. for Instance, were virtually un-
known to the French until the Ameri-
can army came to France. All are
products Of the best known American
packers and it is striking that the av-
erage French housewife says American
canning methods are better than the
French.

THE DEVILS TOWER
By 7. MAxEY

THIS peculiar freak of nature
which has become one of Uncle
Sans National Monuments. is located
near Sundance in northeastern Wyo-
ming. 1t is gigantic rock, 600 feet
high. probably go feet in diameten at
the top and a mile around at the
base. Rising sheer from the level
plain, II is visible in some directions
for almost hundred miles.
Undoubtedly this tower was useful
to primitive races as well as to early
pioneers as landmark. Tis thought
that during the subsequent Indian
wars members of the Sioux and Grow
tribes directed their marches by the
aid Of fires and other signals flashed
from this ever-visible tower.
As one approaches this monstrous
rock, his amazement and awe in
creases. because ii seems Incredible
that any force of Nature could have
carved this solitary monument.
To climb to the top would seem an
impOssibility. yet it is said that a
number of years ago a man and a
woman accomplished this feat sue
cessfully.
Now that the war Is behind us and
Uncle Sam has more time to devote
to home matters. 1t seems not unlikely
that he may deem 1t advisable to
send an expedition to the top of his
new possession and cause a series of
stairways to be constructed for the
accommodation and convenience of
venturesome tourists bent on getting
acquainted with their own country.
