SITTING BRINGS
AGE TO WOMEN
How Not To Grow Old
Early Told By Fee
male Specialists

CLEVELAND, July 29.-(By As
ISOLATED Press Too many women
sit down and grow old, declared DR..
Frances Graves, of Boston, in a paper
which she read today in the National
Osteopathic convention in this city.
"Sit talp' is the remedy proposed by
DR.. Graves. and she told the special
lists how to do it. DR.. Graves said in
part:
at seems wise to instruct women
that if they lead normal lives they
may look forward to a normal middle
life. 1t is not a normal life for a
woman to settle down to sitting the
greater part Of the day. The normal
life is not gained by too little or no
exercises, and too much food. So
many women sit down to grow old.
They welcome old age long before
medical text books tell US that at
fifty old age has been reached, but
| refuse to admit that Do all wo-
men settle down into their bodies and
grow heavy about the waist line,
shoulders and neck? Is all this nee
essary? Most assuredly NO; not
if the woman cares enough to pre-
vent it, in other words, to lead a nor
NAL life.
THE great thing, if one would
have a normal middle life, is to keep
the circulation active. The whole
body should be in perfect adjustment
so that no undue strain is put on any
one part. Regular and sufficient ex-
ercise must be taken every day that
the patient is physically able. Sweets
and starches should be practically
eliminated from the diet. No sitting
down for the afternoon with book
and box of candy. No more protein
than is needed to balance the diet.
The diet should be rich in fresh fruit.
green vegetables, ard raw foods. in
short, the dict should consist of foods
of such a type and in such quantities
that the body may receive the re
quired amount and no more How
many times have we heard some one
say, "Since / have stopped eating Sc
much, | feel ten years younger"
There are two faulty types o.
gesture which we see very often.
First the SLOUGH. The second com
mon type of faulty posture is more
often seen in heavy individuals. This
is the exact opposite of the SLOUGH
The individual stands with the
knees straight, the anterior lumber
curve greatly exaggerated, the
shoulders drawn up with the neck
shortened. This type almost invaria-
bly, has a large, pendulous abdomen.
''In sitting the individual should
push as far back against the back Of
the chair as possible That is all
that is necessary. If that position is
held and the individual "sits tall, p"
she cannot slump without effort. We
do not do nnconsciously thing which
causes effort, so if this position is
kept the individual will soon get so
that correct posture is second ma
ture."

INCOME TAX BILL
FACES BIG FIGHT
Iroup Members In Both
Houses To Oppose
Measure Bitterly
Times-Recorder Bureau,

himDali house.
ATLANTA, July 29-With Cover
nor Thomas w. Hardwick's income
tax measure coming up for passage
in the senate, the first of the week,
a determined fight will be made by
Senator John H. Jones, of Lagrange,
to send it down in defeat. Toward
this end, he assumed a large follow
ing. and the administration will meet
one of its most serious tests when
the fight is started.
The senator maintains that the
proposed system of taxation is un-
fair, and has been found to be fail
ure in several of the states operating
under the plan. he also takes the
position that the measure would
serve to drive out the manufacturing
industries from the state, would place
a too heavy burden on some of the
corporations without lessening th3
present taxation borne by private en-
tefprises and citizens.
In the house, the Troup county
delegation is solidly behind Senator
Jones, and will fight the measure
when it is brought up for considera-
ton by Representative George Cars
well. Both appropriations commit
tees have recommended the passage |
of the bill. The senate committee,
however, sent it to the secretary
desk with only two votes to spare.
Not only will the Troup county
senator fight the income tax meas
ure, but he will fight against the
passage of the new tax act. This leg
islation is expected to be sent to the
senate today or early Monday morn |
ing. 1t will be given immediate con~
sidpratjor,

Charlie S Chaplin
in a scene from
THE hD"

Rumors which have been current
in the motion picture industry that
Charlie Chaplin longed to forsake
the field of buffoonery and appear in
dramatic role on the screen have
been verified as having a substantial
basis, for the picture has been COM
pleted. The idea, however, that he
would adopt the matinee idol make
up and attempt to make the public
forget the character which is identi-
fled by his name all over the world
is merely a mistaken idea engendered
from the report that he was working
in dramatic picture.
The comedian has accomplished
the impossible in his latest picture,
"Thc Kid" First Nationals six reels
of joy, which will be shown at the
Rylander theater Saturday. Direct
orsl previous employees and others
associated with him in his screen
career had pronounced it impossible
that he appear in his screen char
acter in semi-dramatic story and
succeed IN gaming sympathy as well
as laughs from his audiences in the
plioht WI rh the plot developed.
In "The I'd" however, according
to critics and others who have seen
il. he accomplishcs it. Charlie is
there in the same character which
hat gained him the place as the
worlds most popular comedian, but
in situations which combine an oc-
casional sob with shrieks of laugh
ter. Charlie becomes the guardian
of a two weeks-old baby, and ex-
ponds upon him all the love and de-
votion that any father could. His
character, however, makes his every
attempt humorous circumstance,
but the heart throbs are ever present
in the main theme of the Story,

High Grade in BOken Hills

Late development in the main Bro
ken Hills shaft and in the drift along
the Fidelity vein on the l50-foot leve
OF the shaft, have demonstrated thai
the orebodies are widening and show
ing tendency to increase their values
The official report made by the minc
management few days ago to the di-
rectors of the Broken Hills Silver
Corporation that four feet of ore
i'll the face OF the Fidelity drift as.
sayed $3.50 a ton proves to be an
understatement, as high values pene-
penetrate both walls OF the drift. TIL,
mine management states that this con.
dition indicates the Fidelity vein is
at least six feet wide and that the
values in the walls are ON par with
those in the four-foot face OF the
drift itself.
The main Broken Hills shaft ha
been sunk to a depth OF 3l5 feet il
the massive main Broken Hills vein
which lies p feet east OF and parable
with the Fidelity vein, and at thai
depth the ore penetrates both walls o
the shaft indicating a vein width o
nine feet or more. Silyer-lead values
range as high as 1920 a ton.
The main Broken Hills shaft will
reach depth of $50 feet within tel
days. AT that level a crosscut will al
once be driven west TO intersect the
Fidelity vein. Within a week from tn,
date when prosecuting begins the OBJ
objective should be reached at the veir
does not lie more than IS feet from
the shaft OF the 350-foot level.
When this development work is !;
fact accomplished the Fidelity and
Broken Hills veins will have beer
opened at depth OF $50 feet within
a week OF each other, under minera-
logical conditions strongly Favorable
to their persstency to the creates
depth it will be possible to prosecute
mine work. This work is expected to
prove the property and demonstrate
chat one of the big mines of Nevad
has actually been brought in.

zations, of payments to others during

arate return OF information for each
employee whose salary is $1,000 or
more is required of employers The
return must show the name and ad-
dress OF each recipient and the amount
paid.
The information returns which are
fled with the Commissioner OF In
ternal Revenue at Washington, ID. c.

turns OF individual returns. If John
Doe, who has received salary OF
Sl,000 or more in the year 1920 has
tailed to report this payment in his per
sonal return. he will hear from the
