Y. M. c. A. GYMNASIUM

The new "Y" gymnasium
which opens this afternoon
at the Westminster Building
marks, we hope, the inaugu-
ration Of a new era for the
business and professional
man in Alexandria. The
need Of exercise for those
confined in office or store all
day, is disregarded as a rule,
and the reason therefor is
principally the inconven-
fence and expense of fitting
up a private gymnasium, or
the utter lack Of public facl-
lities.
Secretary Wallace, with
his usual vigilance for the
welfare Of men and women,
young and old, has put into
operation a plan that he has
long cherished. He has al
ready a good equipment
with which to start, and
proposes to add to it from
tine to time, as the work
progresses. Calisthenic ex-
ercises, without equipment,
and maze marching, will
also be practised by those
who prefer these forms OF
exercise to those in which
the usual paraphernalia are
used. Shower baths are
provided for use after gym
nastic work.
The gymnasium will be
open to all Y. M. G. A. mem
bers, and membership IS
easily obtained by appllca-
ton to General Secretary
Wallace at the Westminster
Building. The latter has
had some twenty years OF
experience as physical dlrec-
tor and the membership IS
exceedingly fortunate IN
having a leader of his train
ing and ability.
1t is Mr.. Wallace's ambl-
ton eventually to form class
es of those interested, and
conduct the institution on
the most approved modern
plan, such as prevails in the
larger cities.
The ladies of Alexandria
will also participate in the
benefits, and classes for
them are already forming
with regular hours and days
for exercise.
We urge those who have
! / regular means Of daily
.ercise to join this admir-
ayle institution, and assure
them they will be gladly wei
coined by the courteous
gentleman at the head OF it.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory

Well, I guess you would have been
frightened II you were out on a dark
night In the woods and heard a gruh
voice say:
FEE, fe, foam, fat,
/ smell the blood OF Pussy Cat"
as told you in the story before this.
But Puss Junior wasn't. He turned to
the Prince and said: Fear not, com
rade; l have a number Of magic charms
with me-" But the little White Snake,
who was on Puss Juniors back, crawled
into his pocket. for she was so frightened
that she would have turned pale If she
hadn't already been as white as milk
Aud just then, all Of a sudden they
heard a crashing Of bushes, and the bat,
who you remember In the last story had
warned them of the Wild Man of the
Wood, whispered, Here comes this
dreadful Wild Man." and away flew the
bat, for he was very timid, for he is just
like a mouse, you know, only he has
wings as well as feet.
Well, all Of a sudden, the moon came
out from behind the clouds and shone
right down on the Wild Man. And wasn't
he a terrifying looking person? Well
Just guess he was His long hair fell
down over his shoulders and his beard
down to his waist, and In his right hand
he carried a great club with iron knobs
on It, and over his shoulders was hung
a bears skin. "Fee, fe, foam, fat,
Here is a prince and a pussy cat"
Have a care, you churl," said the
Prince, and he drew his sword.
I'm have you," shouted the dreadful
Wild Man, and he swung his great club
at the Prince. But it never hit him, for
the Prince jumped nimbly to one side
Instead, the great club broke off a tree

And then the Wild Man got terribly
angry, and he rushed at Puss Junior
but puss skipped to one side and struck
the point Of his sword in the Wild Mans
leg, and then he stumbled and fell to the
ground.

A Free Booklet on
the Care of Leather

IA a Nation, We buy some 30O,OOo.0Oo
pairs of shoes a year.
Our needs could be supplied by go
100000 pairs if they were well cared
for and kept in repair.
As rule, harness lasts the farmer
for less than ten years. If the right
kind of attention were given to its manu-
facture and use it should last twenty
years or longer.
Belts for driving machinery often be-
come impaired, if not useless, within
few years, even on straight drives. A
good leather belt, suited to the work
to be done and properly installed, will
run for from ten to thirty years.
The Department of Agriculture has is
sued a new pamphlet which gives in
structions for drying, oiling, greasing
and interpreting all kinds of leather.
Our Washington Information Bureau will
secure a copy for any one who sends
cents in stamps for return postage.
