There is quite a difference be- tween training and straining, but many people do not seem to realize this.
 A person is never benefited by a strain, although a strain may test ones efficiency. As rule an exer- else reacts according to the activity required. Consequently, an exercise requiring agility and nimbleness for its performance will develop these qualities along with benefiting health. An exercise requiring en- durance will develop endurance. One requiring grace will develop grace, and so on.
 In exercising one should be care full to select the proper form of exercise. It Is improper to select exercises which duplicate the natural exercise a person obtains through the execution of his or her daily work. For instance, if you walk to work for any distance your exercise should not be along lines that would further develop the muscles you exercise in your daily walks.
 Each person must study himself or herself. Know yourself Is an apt phrase when 1t comes to exercising. There is no set rule that is appli- cable to everyone. Every individual must select individual exercise.
 I personally confine my exercise to those forms of training that tend to make me nimble and, active. have found that if I can keep my joints In good working order, if l can retain nimbleness that is not really part of my particular nature I can attain the best of health.
 Dumb bells, Indian clubs and bending exercises comprise my rou- tine The dumb bells tend to de- velop strength. the Indian clubs grace and the free hand calesthenics keep me supple.
 For years I studied dancing-not the ballroom variety, but exhibition

A few days ago I touched on the question of educating a daughter for a career, just as the son is educated. l want to say more about that, and, above all, I want to> speak about an- other thing on which f-feel very deep ly-that of allowing a daughter to choose her own career.
 Perhaps "career" is not exactly the right word. She would be brought up with the idea that she is to be capable of filling some job. Even if it is unlikely that she will have to earn her living, she should be en- couraged to become interested in something and make career for herself.
 We all know that the day is past when the unmarried girl of 2S CT 90 was considered an old maid, with no place in the world, and her family regarded with eyes of compassion by all the mothers who succeeded in marrying off" their daughters. Thank Heaven, the girl of today can take her time in deciding whom she will marry; that she can| hold her head high and know that she is neither drag on her family nor an object for pity from the world! But in order to do this, she must be pre- pared and this can be done only with the help of her family. Otherwise she starts out handicapped when en- tering into competition with boys Gall of whom have been brought up With the idea of a job in mind) or with girls endowed with more intelligent and farseeing parents.
 O O O
 More Responsibility Nowadays.
 In my opinion even if a girl does not need to earn money and has not the desire to engage in the serious pursuit of a career she will benefit greatly by training which develops in her a businesslike attitude toward hobbies in which she may become in- terested later on. Unfortunately it seems rather difficult for women who are not actually employed Chat is being paid for their labor) to achieve this attitude. I remember so well how irritated I used to be at re- hearsals of amateur theatricals. Most of the participants seemed to have no sense of duty at all. They would be late at rehearsal or not come al all, offering some flimsy excuse. The poor, long suffering director had nc redress; they were no longer children at school who could be punished, and

Millions Instead Of Dire Pouerty
 Might Be Shubert's Fate Today

If Franz Schubert lived today, and his songs sold as the popular songs of today sell, he would have been many times a millionaire, instead of dying in dire poverty Although he died when S1, he left over six hundred songs, which at the present rate of royalties, would have made him worth at least s3o,oOO 900, according to Sigmund Romberg, who adapted and wrote the score for, Blossom Time utilizing the composers best loved and best known melodies for many of the numbers.
 Speaking recently of unrequited
 genius. Romberg began compiling fig-
 ures, or rather quoting them from
 a biography of Schubert, by an
 Englishman, who stated that for some of the best known of his songs Schubert received from his publishers 10 pence apiece, which at the rate
 of exchange before the war was about 20 cents in our money. The
 famous "Quintette" (Opus 11),
 brought to Schubert about S625 in our money and the Trio in E Flat
 Opus 100), exactly $4.37 not exact
 ly princely sum when one figures that up to the present time, the writer of that "Yes, We Have No Bananas" have received nearly ESQ., 900 in. royalties and will probably receive that much more when all re- turns are finally counted lon phono- graphic records. etc.
 The average. according to MT. Rom berg, and he ought to know, having written many successes of the semi- classical order himself is about $50,- 900, compared to the s2.12 which were paid or a number of Schubert g
 unsold compositions after his death, Small wonder that art has always been considered a starvation profes- sion," MT. Romberg shook his head, and tentatively played "The Song of Love" from "Blossom Time" which is Schubert's famous unfinished Symphony" That one number to-

dancing. The limbering up exercises that dancers use in Keeping supple are for me- the most valuable.
 When the time comes that I cannot grasp my foot and bring 1t up at right angle to the body, retaining the hold on my foot or when I find that I cannot bend over and touch the floor with my hands without bending the knees, I will consider that I am not in good physical con- dition.
 It is unnatural to be stiff. Mod- ern conveniences make us so. It re- quires constant exercise to keep us modern mortals in good condition.
 The remark is often made by peo- pie who do heavy physical work that they do not need exercise. This Is untrue. The daily routine of work develops only certain num- Der of muscles. Unless exercise is taken to develop other muscles to keep pace with those constantly used, the body becomes imperfect. This we find the case with the ditch digger. He becomes hunch- backed within few years unless he exer- cises to prevent 1t. l am acquainted with a movie cameraman who car ries a hunch-back from bending over his camera. l know of cases where men who use their arms and shoul- ders constantly cannot walk as far or as fast al I can.
 To keep one's body in tune 1t is above all things necessary that we learn our requirements for our par ticular welfare. No two people are exactly alike physically, and no two people should use exercises that are exactly alike.
 If you will learn first what physi- cal developments you wish to &C., quire, then learn what exercises are necessary and then learn how much exertion you can endure, you will have the proper method of acquiring health,

There is something about Sally Irene and Mary" the musical comedy of youth, the New Years attraction of the Jefferson, which comments itself strongly to music lovers.
 Sally, Irene and Mary" is just a jolly bit of tom-foolery that is never loud, never vulgar, always refined and never fails to send away a satis- fled audience at the close of the per formance. There are two hours and half of music, song and drollery with never a minute that is slow or dull; in other words, it is one round of jollity from the rise to the fall of the curtain. The comedians are ex- ceedingly funny, the chorus girls are decidedly pretty, the songs have points to them, and the music is catchy. Striking and effective stage costumes, elaborate scenery stage pictures that please the eye and snatches of comedy that make you

GREAT HYMNS
1.-THE NINETY AND NINE..

I
 This incomparable song was writ
 ten in the year 1868 by Elizabeth Claphane, a member of the Church of | Scotland, and thus it came about
 that the tenderest and most pathetic | hymn in the English language, or
 any other, was given to us by a daughter of the Scottish Highlands,
 with their mists and cold, ashen-gray clouds.
 Printed in the Christian Age, a London religious publication. it
 chanced to attract the attention of Ira D. Sankey, who instantly saw it's sur- passing beauty and power The tune to which the words are inseparably connected was formed in Sankeys mind during a conference on the subject of the Good Shepherd" |" and before it was written down it was sung for the first time May 16, 1874, at great Gospel meeting In the Free Assembly Hall Edinburgh. l A single instance, given by Mr. Sankey himself, will serve to show the power of the hymn. In certain place where Moody and Sankey were holding a meeting there lived mo- | toriously irreligious man whom we will call Blank. When invited to attend the meeting Blank refused with series of oaths that were terrible to listen to. Blank lived just a little way from the church, across narrow stream. It was summer, and from the his porch Blank heard Sankey sing "The Ninety and Nine" As the words q go to the desert to find my sheep" floated across to him Blank began to be uneasy, soon the tears began to dim his eyesight, and In little while he was on his way to the meeting to ask Gods pardon of his sins.
 Founded on christ's matchless story of the Good Shepherd, "The Ninety and Nine" has probably done more than all the "liberaP preaching put together to soften the old theology and to make men believe the death- less love of the Great Father of us all.
 No man can believe in the oldtime doctrine of hell while listening to the singing of this wonderful hymn.

ALFALFA SMITH


 Dear Friend: Why the smoke screen? Why try to hide yourself? Are you like the South American lizard, which, when pursued, drops it's tail in the path to interest the pursuer while it escapes?
 If there is a duty to be done, why not do it? Why shirk the responsi- bility? It has to be done some time why not now?
 You are but a part of the great whole and you have to do your duty or get left in the shuffle, so the quicker you get at it the better. Simply ask yourself thIs question: Am I doing my full duty% Yours truly, ALFALFA SMITH. Make yourself necessary to the world, and mankind will give you bread.-tn. erson.
