NoU For The Perfect Corset;
Health Experts h1dOrSe Them

1t was said that not one OF the Wo-
men examined, whether she wore cor
sets or not, had the correct physiolog-
ical posture. Seventy per cent OF them,
it was found, were wearing corsets
which encouraged their faulty posture
instead of tending to correct it. What
the institute intends to do is to have
the right kind OF corsets made and
marketed and educate women to wear
them.
When the perfect corset is ready
for the market, it is hoped to have a
booklet ready for distribution with
each pair, instructing the wearer how
to exercise her abdominal muscles. 1t
is admitted by Dr. Dunn that corsets
may have a tendency to weaken these
muscles, but she is satisfied that il
she can get women to exercise them
every day and wear the correct cor
set they will attain that, perfect pos
ture which was not to be found among
the 5000

instance, remains swollen about ten

NEW YORK-The Life Extension
Institute, public health organization
has decided, it was acknowledged yes
terday, to come out fat-footed foI
corsets. Whatever the old physiology
school books may have said about
them and purported to prove by dis
tressing pictures of livers and things
whose rightful ambitions have been
ruthlessly suppressed, corsets are es-
sential to women today, in the opinion
of institute experts.
DR.. D. NJ Dunn, head of the wo-
mans department of the institute, and
Jeanette Eaton, head of the educa-
tional department said yesterday that
the neutrality which the institute had
maintained in the battle of the cor
sets was to be abandoned After ex-

DR.. Dunn has been convinced, she
said, that the trouble is not that they
wear corsets, but that they wear the
wrong kind of corsets.

Dr. Joseph Pfeifer, Chicago den

wide dental clinics, said today that
women and girls who are addicted to
the cirgarette habit have a horror OF
nicotine-sta teeth, so they have
their teeth cleaned so often and so
vigorously that their enamel and
strength are destroyed early in life.
This means cavities and violet tooth

UNUSUAL NOISE |. ABOUT YOUR CAR
BY x. AUST

Q N. SN0 S
 It is when you drive.yo car over rough roads that all sorts of rattles and squeaks are heard, most of which you cannot locate. l have heard so many say that they would like to know where certain noises are com ing from because once located it is usually an easy matter to find some means of remedying them. The next time you are confronted with this problem the first thing 10 do is to attempt to find the location of the sound, that is whether forward or rear After that keep in mind the kind of a sound it is. that is, whether tinny or more solid in character. The average owner allows the parts to re- main loose until the car goes to the shop, all because of his inability to find the exact cause. Here is an easy way to trace certain noises;
 Tenders are commonly blamed for a lot of noises that are caused by E cense plates. hood lamps and other attached parts. When the car is stopped grip the fender firmly and pull and push it in all directions. If you can detect any looseeness first find out if the supporting brackets are loose. These brackets are at tached to the frame and to the fender. The bolts holding the bracket in place against the frame or the fender at tachment may be loose and these may easily be frightened, Some lenders haye insufficient points of attach ment, so that no matter how tight they are against the bracket they will make a noise. Some owner rivet an extra piece to such lenders and bind them more firmly against the frame The makeshift method is to force sticks of wood between the fender and the frame to cause binding.
 Mud aprons and mud pans are com mon cause of noises sometimes diff cult to find. The apron on front un- der the radiator is usually held in place by small bolts and nuts. II these became even slightly loose the apron may cause an uncomfortable noise because of car vibration alone The underpan attached to the frame often becomes noisy because of frame weaving.
 1 have seen owners attempt to trace ! a noise and tighten everything ir sight without getting results. Head lamp glass fronts will confuse ar owner in this way. They will rattle in their frames and emit a, tinns sound very much like that of loose | license plate.
 In company with the noises men toned is that produced by coolins fan. Few owners suspect a fan O making a noise. but loose blades ol end play in the fan often produces the tinny sound so common Io the cheap. CT grades of cars.
 Some of the low priced cars on tn, market are fitted with radius rods ana poorly designed gearshift mechan- 1 isrns. The radius rods must hay l freedom of movement up and dowr but not necessarily sideways. In go 1 ing over rough roads these radiu rods may rattle and make it very diff 1 ficult for one to give an exact loeatiol I to the sound Brake rods when the, are long or of small diameter and no well supported at the ends will rattl 1 in the same way. The radius rod
 usually have some means for prevent | ing rattle but the brake rods have not
 Because the brake rods move it i | very difficult to provide means fo

SEES GREATFUTURE
 AHEAD IF US

In a personal message to all of the Jordan distributing organizations throughout America this last week, Edward S. Jordan, president of the company that bears his name, ex- pressed his optimism and his faith in the future in words that rang with sincerity.
 He declared that America offered an increasingly good market for a quality automobile. rightly built and rightly merchandised. He prophe- sled an increasing demand for Jor- dan cars, as the public, the particu- lar part of the motor car buying pub lie, becomes more conversant with the many advantage geous features of Jor- dan ownership.
 He further declared that not only is there such a thing as pride of ownership. but that there is also the reverse of this aviom, pride of own CTS. The distinctly American class of people, the persons who consti- ute the best citizenship of the land that live normally, think intelligently and stand for ideals that are backed with common sense, are the type oi people that we take pleasure in see ing behind the wheel of Jordan auto- mobiles
 Some of the high lights in the let ter are: If these desirable people (referring to the class of buyers re- ferred to above) knew what I know about the painstaking efforts of Jor- dan men to make the Jordan car well they would have confidence in tht Jordan" writes Jordan.
 These people are the people wht have learned how unwise it is to live in houses of excessive size with ex' cessive attendant expense. They arr inclined to choose automobiles tn, same way for reasons of satissactor, service and practical economy.
 'They are the people who do no display their wealth to their reign bors. They prefer to acquire ais tinction through the expression O good taste rather than extravagance Many of them have been compelled in the past to endure excessive weight and cost of upbeep to enJo. comfort and reliability"
 It is to this class of people tha the automobile manufactures desire to have the Jordan message pre- scented, and it is to this class of peo pie that a manufacturing compan.

 most peculiar sound in produced by the hood when frame weaving causes it to move. Often it produces a squeak. The pads (often of leather or fabric) between the hood and cowl and hood and radiator. when badly worn make the sound worse. Some owners oil these pads so the hood will slide over. In the cheaper cars it is almost impossible to sure hood from making noises.
 Spring shackles with side play may be noisy on a road that is only slight ly rough. Often the sound is like an engine knock and the owners does not know what on earth to look for. This sound may sometimes be heard only when a turn is made.
 Speedometer gears, the. speedome ter shaft, loose steering tie rod or drag link are other causes of peculiar noises often difficult to find.
 The best method to use to find any of the noises mentioned is to handle each part.
