Gloria Foy Musical Comedy
Star, Says Dance and GrrOz0 Tall
BY MARIAN HALE


NJ EW YORK, June 30.-Many a
girl has bewailed the fact
that she lacked an inch or so
in height. and thought there was
nothing to be done about it.
But Gloria Foy. quite accidentally
and unintentionally. added cubits to
her stature, and her system may be
effective for others.
Miss Foy simply danced on an
inch and a half-and did it after
she had reached the mature age of
81, the period in life when most
girls feel they can depend OH their
height and forswear the trouble
some practice of letting down hens.
SIX months after L had been
dancing in Up She Goes, Miss
Foy explained. Il had gained my
extra height l spoke to my dane
ing master about it and he did not
seem surprised in the least. Rather,
he assured me vigorous dancing so
stretches the muscles that it causes
almost any person engaged in it to
grow taller.
TN Her Toes
Then l spoke TO a physician and
he. too. said 1t was quite the rule to
elongate by exercise
To be sure Miss FOy spends
much time on her toes She dances
for practically two hours each eve
ming. during the performance, to
say nothing Of two matinees a
week
She takes a dancing lesson every
day. which consumes another hour,
and usually practices two hours
day. besides. So. you see. she real
" worked for those inches.
Adds to Pep
But I've never felt so well or
had so much pep as since l have
been exercising so consistently" she
assured me- 81 wish I could urge
all women to keep up their dancing
and their exercises past the point
of fatigue where they really get fun
and exhilaration out Of what they
do.

ballet technique just as faithfully
now as I did when I started to
dance. | can stand infinitely more
physical and mental strain than
used to. and I have never had even
a suspicion Of i'll health since my
engagement began. I've been ap-
pearing steadily now for eight
months.

Parents Strict


Dear Miss Lee: We are two girls Is years
old. We are sophomores in high school We
are considered very. good looking He have
many boy friends and most of them want
dates with us. As our mothers disapprove
of our going with boys. ii Is rather EN-
barrassing to tell them why we cannot 60
Our parents think we should go with them
If we go at all We don't have a good time
unless we deceive our parents Although
we don't wish to Overdo it. we think that If
they would let us go once In a while we
would have a better time and think more of
our parents
Could you suggest a way in which we
could have better time and at the same
time please our parents?
LENORE AND ESTELLE.
When you deceive your parents, you
justify their attitude. They are do
ing what they think is best for you.
Perhaps they would let you have
groups of your boy and girl friends
over once in while for an evening
You could have just as good a time
as if you went downtown. and your
parents would not be worried.

it is too hard for her to keep her pc
sition. 10 throw it up and just turn
her attention to that great big foolish
boy that she married"

Older Boys Invade
LOveland, Colo,
and Take the
City by Storm

The Hi-"Y" Club, composed of the
majority of our High School boys here
in the city, scored a pleasant victory
last week in town where they had
looked down on our race.
The Northern Colorado Older Boys
Conference was held at Loveland and
this conference is made up of older
high boys who get together once a
year and discuss the better ways of
living and extending the Kingdom of
God here ON earth.
Four delegates, and the Jubilee
Quartet, composed of Quentin Harring-
ton, Lee Grigsby, Wade Waller and
Charles Clark, made Il wonderful show
ing that will live long in the minds of
those who had the opportunity of at
tending the largest and best confer
ence this district has ever held. The
quartet rendered Jubilee numbers at
all the sessions, and they proved to
be the hit of the conference The
townspeople just went wild over our
boys, and the boys had more invita-
tions to different places Sunday than
they could accept.
The four delegates also made a
splendid impression at the conference
in the manner in which they entered
into the open discussions, and also by
the way they conducted themselves on
the street, in the conferences, and in
the homes in which they stopped. The
delegates consisted of Ulysses An
drews, Frank Brickler, Paul Hicks and
Frank Watkins. Ulysses Andrews was
elected member of the Resolutions
Committee, while Frank Brickler was
made IA member of the Executive Com
mittee of the conference. Mr.. Town
address at the First Christian Church,
Sunday morning, and he was assisted
by the quartet. The Loveland news
papers gave our boys IL big write-up
invitation for our boys to visit them
again in the near future.
Boys, on joining this club, pledge
that they will extend their best effort
to uphold the purposes of the club,
which is to create, maintain and eX-
tend throughout the school and com
munity, high standards of Christian
character, under the slogan of "Clean
Speech, Clean Athletics, Clean SchOl-
arship and Clean Living" What ideals
could be better?

LIBERIA MUST :,
BUILD RAILWAY
INTO INTERIOR
Citizens Ask Government
Support to Develop Farm
ing Resources of Country

Monrovia, Liberia, Feb. 23.-Since
the refusal of the American govern
ment to make Liberia loan, the Ii
berians have gone to work to do the
best they can with what they have at
hand. The statesmen, business men
and professional men are getting to-
gether to determine what may be done
with the country's resources.
There is IL keen eye for the future
among all classes.
1t is recognized by the leaders that
the facilities of Liberia have scarcely
been touched. Only 10 per cent of the
agricultural possibilities are developed.
1t is now proposed to get into the in
terror, connecting it with the coast
towns, so that citizens of the country
may work toward Il more prosperous
era and the upgrowth of national sta
bility.
One condition they realize as having
obstructed development has been. the
absence of transportation facilities. 1t
is now proposed to build a railroad for
100 miles into the interior.
A. J. Henry, writing in the Liberian
News, notes: "It is Il deplorable fact
that of the 100000 miles of railways
of the world, Liberia has not one mile
to her credit"
He believes that men with money
should be asked to build road into
the interior of the country, the people
of Liberia subscribing to the success
of the venture and guaranteeing capi-
tai against loss.
The popular demand in Liberia for
motor. transportation he frowns upon
because, he says, motor vehicles for
such work have always been super
seeded by railways, and the only advan-
tage they might bring would be in the
form of few jobs for aborigines as
chauffeurs.
The general opinion is that the gov
ernment should grant the land and
protection and have the controlling in
terest.
