makers more intesested in the proper
development. of the boy and the only
way we can secure this is by the con-
stituent of every man in congress
writing and tell him the benefit Of
athletics and how an unjust tax pro-
hibits it's growth.
Statistics at Harvard show that
1430 young men exercise in some
branch Of sport daily, and statistics
from other colleges prove that athletes
are the best students. Recently 100
middles were dropped for the United
States Naval Academy but in that
number there wasn't an athlete. We
must have our Merediths, Horween's,
Sheppards, and Jones. and the only
way we can get them is by providing
the necessary tools for the boys to
operate with and at a cvost they can
pay.
$4,000 Boys on Parade.
On April 80, $4,000 boys paraded
down Fifth Avenue, New York. It was
the beginning Of Boys Week in New
York. This demonstration should not
have been confined to New York.
Boys Week might just as we'll have
been celebrated in every city. It is the
boy we are all interested in. He is the
one who suffers most by this unjust
war tax. He is the one that is kept
more from play than any one else. This
should not be. The biggest asset this
nation, or any other nation has, is its
boys.
Here is a paragraph taken from a
proclamation issued by Mayor John F.
Hylan, of New York. calling attention
to Boys Week:
"The most valuable asset Of the city.
state and nation is boyhood. Upon
this foundation the future stability OF
our free institutions will rest. In APP
.preciation Of this fact numerous boys
organizations are endeavoring to en-
large the educational, recreationaI and
character. making opportunities for
boys. No better investment could be
made nor any more likely to yield
greater dividends from the standpoint
Of upright American citizenship"
Write your congressman and tell him
he can help the nation wonderfully by
assisting in the repeal Of this tax.

The Importance of
Healthy Kidneys

In the removal of waste matter. from
the body, the kidneys are called upon
to perform a very important duty. The
failure of these marvellous and deli
cately constructed organs to properly
do their work means retention in the
system OF poisonous matter. This
poisons the system, and If permitted
to remain results in severe backache,
headache, torpid liver, constipation
and eventually Bright's disease. War
ner's Safe Kidney and Liver Remedy,
a combination of herbs and other
healthful ingredients was discovered
about so years ago. and its value in
strengthening the kidneys and liver
was at once appreciated. Today 1t
stands as one of the standard RENE
dies in the treatment Of diseases of
the kidneys and liver. : Many persons
suffer from diseases Of the kidneys
unknowingly. The use Of Warmers
Safe kidney and Liver Remedy will in
yariably improve your health. and
make you feel that life is really worth
the living.

EUCENICS DAY
in The HOUSE
Fat Fees For Doctors Taken Out and
Bill Passed AS Amended.
(By JOHN c. TRIcE)


TALLAHASSEE, May .19-This might
well be called eugenics day in the house
of representatives. The latter part of
the morning session was consumed with
a discussion Of the eugenics marriage
bill, house bill Sc, which the house passed
yesterday afternoon, and which DIR. Har-
ris Of Jackson county held up with a
motion to reconsider the vote. The re-
consideration took place today and con-
sumed large part Of the two sessions.
This afternoon 1t was amended by Mr..
Phillips SO as to cut out the fat fees pro-
vided for the doctors and the bill was
again passed by vote OF 80 to 81. I'm
mediate1y there came us special or
der house bill 305, by the committee on
public health of which DR.. Raborn is
chairman. It presents the selling. rec
ommending or making for personal use
any medicine for the treatment OF vene-
real diseases, except by a licensed ply
stefan. Mr.. Phillips of Columbia de-
nounced the bill as carrying only one
feature that was worthy of considera
ton. He declared that it would result
in untold suffering by those who could
not reach doctor and fill the Golfers

of the doctors with money. He Their
fore moved to strike out the eaactin,
clause and this motion was adopted 81
to 10.
Mr.. Perry of Lee county toward the
last of the roll call changed his vote fer
the purpose of moving to reconsider the
vote by which the bill was defeated. Mr..
Stokes moved that the house do now
consider the vote, which plan was adopt
ed, and on the reconsideration roll call
the vote was II to AZ. another killing
blow to the bill.
House bill 496, from the same commit
tee. was next considered. 1t is to pre-
vent hotels. lodging houses and inns in
this state being used for immoral pur
poses. There was no objection to this
bill and as fast as could he read and
advanced tc third reading and the roll
called it was given the approval of the
house by large majority.
Then came house bill 314. by DIR. Ra-
born of Walton. 1t was passed Sc 70 4.
This is a bill defining venereal diseases
and being only a slight change of the
present law, there was no opposition to
it and no time was taken up in its dis
cussion.
MIR. Ellis of Alachua county called up
the teachers pension bin. house bill 21S.
and it was indefinitely postponed. The
object in calling the bill up for this pur-
pose alone, as explained on the floor, was
that an identical bill in the senate had
been killed by that body.
The house adopted another plan for
speeding up action on the bills before it
and to come before the house. 1t

BOY IS GREATEST
ASSET OF NATION
Cannot Be Realized Until Congress
Repeats Obnoxious Tax on Sport
ing Goods.
BY "Pete" Carney.

The thing that at this moment in
terests the sportsmen Of the United
States more than anything else is not
how many home runs Babe Ruth or
George Kelly will make but whether
congress will eliminate the 10 per cent
war tax on sporting goods from the
bills now before it.
We know Of no subject that has
come to the attention Of sportsmen in
recent years that has awakened so
much interest in the athletic organ
izations of the nation as this effort to
have this unjust tax repealed. This tax
saps at the life blood of the nation.
There is nothing just in a tax on
wholesome play; there is nothing just
far more sensible to put a tax on play
grounds and you will agree with me
that this is not at all sensible.
While a recent congress increased
the tax on sporting goods from 3 per
cent to 10 per cent and left auton1o-
biles, diamonds and other Injuries at 5
per cent other nations were giving aid
in financial way to increase interest
in athletics and aiding in the develop.
ing of the youth. France has gone SO
far in this respect that Premier BRAND
has informed the Secretary Of State
for sports that the French govern
ment will erect a stadium IL Parish is
granted the 1924 Olympic Games. They
are strong for developing athletes in
France. They know that an athletic
nation means a healthy nation. The
people Of this country know this and
it is up to our people to acquaint the
law makers with this wholesome
idea. @
The City Of Philadelphia recently
contributed $4,000 to deepen the
Schuylkill river so that it would be
better for rowing purposes and more
recently gave $4,000 for the erection
Of additional tennis courts in the pub
lie parks. Chicago Is to have sta
will seat $1,000. Columbia, Illinois
and New Hampshire universities will
soon erect stadiums; Allegheny coll
lege has appropriated 100000 for an
athletic field and the West Virginia
legislature has just voted an addition
al 100000 to the University Of West
Virginia for q new gymnasium.
Must Develop Body With Mind.
These people know the value of ath-
ietics. The proper development OF the
body Is just as necessary as the de-
velopment OF the mind, for a man with
O brilliant mind and a weak body can
not hope for much success. There Is
no use in building gigantic athletic
fields unless we make provision for our
boys to use them, and this cannot be
done with such things on the Law
books as 10 per cent tax on all sport
ing equipment.
Tn the recent relay games at the
University OF Pennsylvania some III
colleges, 1875 high schools, SO prepare
tory schools. SO grammar schools, 2(
parochial schools; a total Of 412 insti-
tutions were represented These insti-
tutions Of learning know the value Of
athletics. More than 5000 individuals
competed in these games.
What we want is to have our Law
