WHY BE FAT?

ATELY publicity has been given some

since heredity is to blame-and, indeed. that
the growing stout is itself the fault of
heredity.
Nine times out of ten blame for the stout
ness rests chiefly with dietic indiscre-
uons' Even In the case of those who have
inherited tendency to obesity much may
be done to hold this in check by establish
ing wise eating habits.
Ii such habits are not established, no in-
her1ted tendency need be invoked to explain
the obesity that results. And unfortunately
SO Tar as their eating habits are concerned,
no end of people resemble the young lady OF
whom Z. H. Ceilings amusingly sings

Only those who have inherited an invinci-
bic tendency to eanness can thus eat with
impunity, as regards avoidance of growing
stout. All others, whatever their inheri-
lance, may expect to put on weight, perhaps
to dsfguring and alarming extent
But, having put it on, 1t usually is possible
to take it off, provided one is willing to diet

especial the fat-forming foods-the oily,
starchy, and sugary foods-have to be cut
down or cut out entirely. Also weight-re-
ducing exercise, needs to be taken.
This, obviously, makes a pretty severe de-
mand the obese, and the demand is the
more severe in that, as rule, the obese are
averse to exercise and are particularly fond
of the foods they must avoid. Hence the
failure of many who should reduce, to make
any real effort at reduction.
ITS not worth all the trouble it costs"
they petulanty exclaim, ''and any way it's
not such serious matter to be fat"
Actually 1t may be an exceedingly serious
matter. To summarize modern medical pro-
nouncements regarding the risks which the
obese run:
weight and diabetes. The obese are peculiar
ly liable to suffer from this disease, and it
would seem that the overeating of starchy
and sugary substances may lead to patho-
logical glycosura and the production of dia-
betes.
"Obesity is strain on the heart and the
Joints 1t pushes up the diaphragm and
cramps the lungs. 1t makes people bear OPP
erations badly. 1t is serious bar to long
expectancy of life. Except in the single in
stance of tuberculosis, the obese are disad-
vantaged in the struggle against any dis
ease"
Under these circumstances, weight reduc-
ton is surely worth sincere effort on the
part of those who need It, And, as stated.
weight reduction particularly under medical
direction, usually is within the realm of
possibility So why be fat?

Portraits Of Len,;ne'

N m EN- are still debating whether Julius

tician than statesman of world
outlook; whether Catherine de Meitci was a
bloody vixen, or gifted and gracious lady
hinged around with dangerous foes;, whether
est, the "wisest or the "meanest Of man
kind" whether Oliver Cromwell was an
iron-fisted bgot, or a glorious vindicator of
human freedom; whether Napoleon. was a
master spirit of the ages, or, as the loqua-
cious Mr. Wells would have it, "a cockerel
growing on a dunghill." These and many a
dred winters more. But when we come to
contemporary opinion on so far-shadowing
figure as Nicolai Lenine, there is, out
side of Russia, remarkable agreement.
One observer will see in the Bolshevst
chieftain traits of character or hues of tenn
permanent which another will miss; and es-
Inmates differ as to the degree both of his
greatness and of his evil. But in the Eng
disappearing world, at least, there appears
no wide divergence of judgment on the es-
sential soul of the man or on the sum of
his work. This may be ascribable to the
bent and the tradition of the Anglo-Saxon
mind, which has nothing in common with
himself who leaves the singular sameness
of impression. An example or two will be
found interesting.
British man of letters and member of
Parliament, Mr.. H. A. L. Fisher writing in
the "Cornhill' magazine. deems Lenine too
opinionated for greatness, sectary living
on borrowed doctrine, rather than a think
err" 1t is recalled that men as broad
minded and as discerning as Mr.. Bertrand
Russell, DR.. Hagberg and Mr., Branting all
found the Russian dictator thoroughly dis
appointing" Neither wit, nor imagery nor
eloQuence marked his writing. but only a
strong, logged, pedantic insstence on GER
tain cardinal ideas" Nevertheless, lit is
impossible to deny to him a certain large
effectiveness. He had the irritable. intense
originality which belongs to whose
sense of values is utterly different from that
which prevails in the organization Of the
world of which he is part He never look

weakness lay in the fact that he did not

any form of speculation not fully in accord
with his own he was stupidity scornful and
was content to dismiss Berkeley, Hume and
Kant as the trainers of nonsensical philoso
phies designed ito maintain the proetariat

aludes. Lenine was quite third-rate."
