White Collar Exercise.

White Collar Exercise.
On card issued by the Chicago
Athletic Association I find this cap
tivating suggestion regarding the
MONDAY gymnasium exercises:
Keep physically it
You do not remove coat or collar
no fatigue-no preparation
Personally directed by physical
This is great. Just the thing the
tired-that is to say. 1azy-business
man has been waiting for. Exercise
without effort. Like taking it from
spoon. How exciting it must be II
mistake and perspires a bit while
going through the Delsarte move
ments-the vulgar fellow!
Such an announcement, such lady
like farce. might be all very well in a
girls high school somewhere east of
the Hudson, presided over by a sim
pering old maid. To pretend that
healthful exercises can be taken in
gymnasium as far west as Chicago
by gentlemen wearing coats and COL
ridiculous for an athletic organiza
ton. Even the valetudinarians out
for a round of golf wear some ething a
little less formal than white collars
II man wants a little wholesome
exercise and hasn't the time or nerve
to remove his collar and coat and
other restraining apparel, then he
might far better walk around the
block a few times or climb a few
flights OF stairs-something that will
at least make him breathe a little
harder. il it doesn't make him sweat.
Exercise without sweat is of doubt
ful value. Not because sweating car
ries any considerable quantity Of
waste or poison out of the system,
for 1t does nothing of the kind. but
because exercise which doesn't start
the sweat is not likely to influence a
mans metabolism appreciably: that
is. it is not likely to make him abb
sorb more oxygen than he usually
absorbs. since there Is not enough
increase Of oxidation or metabolism
to warm the man up and call for the
cooling function Of perspiration.
Just such white collar and coat
exercise" is prepetrated In many q
school room in the guise Of physical
training. and doing the unfortunate
pupils Just as much good as this lady
like delsarte class in the Chicago
Athletic Association Is likely to de-
rive from the MONDAY performances.
The ideal way to exercise for
health's sake is in natures garb. If
the laws or customs or environment
| make this impossible, then wear as
| little as possible and have the at
mosphere as nearly at outdoor tenn
perature as possible. An air bath is
no joke at all. but salutary prac-
| tice for the victim of superfuous
clothing.
A man trying to make himself be-
lieve that he is taking healthful ex-
ercise with his coat and collar on Is
even funnier spectacle than a
| woman pretending to take part in
athletic work wearing a corset or
French heels.
Sweat, you auto intoxicated chair
| warmer. sweat by your own physical
| effort II you want to feel alive.

RECORD OF COURT IN
BALL00NISTS' CASE
MUST BE CORRECTED

Washington, Feb. S.--The record
Of the naval court of inquiry, which
Investigated the flight of the bal
loonists, Hinton, Kloor and Farrell
from Rockaway, to Moose Factory,
Ontario, has been sent back for
revision of the sections relating to
the authority of the commandant
at Rockaway air station to order
the flight, Secretary Daniels said
tonight. The report was not con-
elusive with regard to the com
inandants authority 10 order
flights that would take the crew
outside the United States. Mr..
Daniels said, and it was desired to
clear the matter up, because of
treaty agreements with Great Brit
ain regarding armed forces cross
ing the Canadian boundary.
Mr.. Daniels said it has been sug-
gested that the court had not gone
deeply enough into the clash at
Mattice, between Lieutenants Hin
ton and Farrell, at the conclusion
of the trip from Moose Factory,
but he had not instructed any
further inquiry, he said All con-
cerned were willing to "let by
cones be by-gones," MIR. Daniels
said.

New York, Feb. 8 (by

German war plot that fail

Four defective bolts taken
from the machinery of the
transport Mount Vernon,
told the tale. They were
discovered by engineering
forces Of Commander r. D.
Gatewood, director of the
shipping boards division of
construction and repairs,
and placed on exhibition at
his office.
After the Mount Vernon, form
erly the Kronprinzessen Cecelie,
the famous "goldship" that raced
into Bar Harbor in the early days
of the war had been seized as a
troop ship, her German crew cut
two-thirds of the way through the
four six inch bolts that connected
the engines with the main crank
shaft, The skillfully made cuts
remained hidden by the fittings of
the engines, and were discovered
only recently when the engines
were taken apart.
1t Is believed the bolts were left
barely holding with the hope that
the craft would creep into U-bOat
lanes and fall prey to the under
sea craft when a strain on the en-
gines came with an order for full
speed ahead.
But luck or toughness of steel
permitted the liner to make a doz-

Law Book Bill Loses.
The big surprise came over
senate bill II, to create law libra
ries in counties of the first -class
and wherever district judge was
situated. Democrats protested
against the passage of the bill, but
were told it was introduced at the
request of democratic lawyers. AL
though the bill had been reported
out of committee favorabiy, on
final passage it received only one
affirmative vote, that of Gran
than, while twenty-five senators
voted no. Eight of them, however,
passed their vote when their names
were first called.
The house bills passed by that
body were Fourteen, providing for
fees and mileage Of witnesses; %,
permitting a declaration of rights
by court; 25, defining the duties of
the attorney general; so, relative
to the election of justices of the
peace and constables; ga, relative
to buying hides: 65, penalties for
the larceny of animals, and 66,
requiring the re-recording OF
brands.
Solons Have Their Jokes.
The last three were part of the
legislative program of the livestock
interests and attracted the same
vigorous opposition in parts that
the other measures of that industry
did. The bill relative to the buying
of hides was amended to include
only cattle, horses and burros.
One representative moved that It
be extended to goats, which was
countered by a demand that 1t in
clude rabbits as well.
Ortega, of Taos, sought to make
the buyer pay inspection costs, but
this was promptly defeated. The
bill finally carried SO to s. An at
tempt to adjourn the house was
defeated and the bill relative to the
larceny of animals was taken up.

TODAY USHERS IN A SEASON OF
FASTING AND PRAYER; LENT HERE
TO STAY UNTIL EASTER SUNDAY

Today, Ash Wednesday, ushers
in the penitential period of Lent,
the. season when the ancient Chris
tians made public atonement for
their sins by garbing themselves in
sackcloth and sprinkled them
selves with ashes In confession of
their unworthiness.
The season, in modern times. is
less strenuous and is observed in
varying degrees of strictness by the
different churches. In Albuquer-
que the Catholic churches and ST.
John Episcopal church are the
only congregations that will have
regular Lenten observances.
Protestant churches will not OBJ
serve the season until Passion
Week, the week beginning with
the Sunday preceding Easter. Ali
churches except the Baptist con-
gregations will hold special ser
VICES during the week. St. Paul
English Lutheran church, the pas
tor, the Rev. A. NJ. Knudsen
stated, will hold no special services
but on each Sunday the services
will be of Lenten character.

from many of the usual pleasures.
Many, particularly in the Catholic
congregations, will forgo dances,
C.ndy, movies and the choice foods
during the season which consists
of 40 days exclusive of the Sundays
when the rigors of the week days
are relaxed.
The historical explanation Of
Lent is based on the 40 days that
Christ tasted in the desert in pre-.
paration for the redemption OF
man by his crucifixion. In this
the foundation is laid for the alb
stemious character of the strict
customs, it being held unbecoming
to indulge in the so-called worldly
pleasures during the anniversary of
the 40 days when the Savior was
denying himself all food and pray
ing in the desert for the redemp-
ton of the human race.
