Relaxed Condition OF
Muscles Is Golf
Secret

A. relaxed condition of the
muscles is an absolute essential,
according to Jock Hutchison,
former British open champion,
who goes ,ofl to say that with
out this condition there can be
nothing of the factor that is
usually described. as rhythm in
the swing.
Regardless Of how much
force is put into getting the
club through and Of how much
the crack players appear to be
hitting the ball, the basis Of the
stroke is a swing, just as the
action of q baseball pitcher in
throwing the ball has a swing
ing motion" said Jock. "Just
imagine what would happen to
pitcher if in making ready to
throw the ball he tensed all the
muscles of his arm and shoul-

Jack Dempsey was also a crude,
rough and ready fellow when he
started and attracted no attention
even in the semi-finals. Suddenly
he blossomed out as terrific hit
ter and went through the list Of
so called stars like bullet
through a cheese fort.
Fred Fulton looked to be star,
yet he turned out to be a flop.
The writer saw him in some won
derful battles, and he looked to be
more of a champion than any of
his rivals. He put up great
fights with AL Reich, Frank
Moran, Tom Cowler and a number
of others, yet, when he faced
Dempsey, he took a dive from a
slap on the ear. He had the
physique, the cleverness and che
knowledge for a champion, but
his heart was the size of a flax
seed.
The woods are full of heavies
right now who have the heart but
little else. Most Of them are just
dumb and strong. The best Of
the lot are Wills, Maloney, Strib-
ling, Tunney, Gibbons, Renault,
Weinert and Jimmy Slattery "a

Many readers of the Herald are with the Rev F. L. Brooks in his opinion of this city
 It is an outrage how the grocery stores are open all day Sunday to the public.
 People should refer to their Bibles Remember the Sabbath Day, 10 keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour and do all thy work.
 But the seventh day is the Sab bath of the Lord thy God, in it thou shalt not do any work"
 Why should the store keeper earn a dollar when the other man cannot?
 If the grocery stores remain open then the shops and factories have the same privilege.
 If there is a store keeper in the city who feels he cannot afford to close, he should not be in business for himself.
 One store in the city does regard Sunday as the Sabbath, all folks living near the corner of South Main and Robert streets know it is true.
 If all stores would follow this example and try not to be so grasp ling after the dollar, then Rev, F. L.. Brooks would not have the oppor- tunity of painting the city so black.

A NEW BIG TERMINAL
 ON THE QUIET

When the great Pennsylvania and Grand Central terminals in New York city were built they attained nationwide publicity. Everything happening in New York gets that kind of publicity, Newspapers Tn New York may rant about the pre- tentions of the little town of Day ton in Tennessee about enjoying the spotlight but 1t isn't yet upon any record that New York lodged a similar opportunity. The nation knows all 1t needs to know and little more about everything Of moment in New York, from Hylan and anti-Hylan politics up to the minute changes of residential prop erty along Fifth avenue and the names of all the skyscrapers; but the nation Is fed upon little regard ing the civic achievements else where.
 Returning to railroad stations the great new Union station in Chl- cago has been completed. It took ten years to build and will be used by three railroad systems, Pictures at hand indicate it is something of q station, and great viaducts had to be built for nearby streets so that tracks might pass beneath them. Had the station been constructed in New York it would have received big sallos of praise, but in Chicago well nothing but crime is sup posed to come from that town.
 Many other cities throughout the country are engaged in great under takings. but very little attention IS paid 10 them in this so-called jazz age. Such projects lack heart in- tcrcst-there IS no pretty girl ln- volvcd. In order to gain attention nowadays a city must stage mon- key trial murder trial, q big di- vorce action, crooked political deal, an earthquake or tornado

A~ '""aahp1 T"NEN'Si'' Mr, Editor.-


 MT Edltor.-
 Dear sir
 In regard to theg controversy be- tween our mayor and Pastor Brooks, l desire to gIve the Hon. Mir Pao- nessa credit for having mind of his own in the matter of politics. Surely our Puritanical experiences are not too far in the background for us to learn lessons from that un- scriptural un-Amerlcan and I may add cruel religio-p political combine of church and state. Have We forgotten the good advice on record given by George Washington, Abraham Lin coin, General Grant, etc, namely, Keep the church and state forever apart? This is in perfect harmony with Jesus Christ, who said: "Ren- der unto Caesar (state) the things which are Caesars; and unto God the things that are Gods" Surely nothing could be palmer. The church is, or should be, q spiritual (hcaven- Iy) institution, while the state is strictly worldly. Again Jesus de- c,arcd: My Kingdom is not of this World"
 Church and state does not mix, because they are opposites. While they may be a great help to each other in many ways while kept apart; but the moment they mix (whcn preachers want to run poll tics, and politicians want to run the church) is what the Bible calls spir- itual adultery, l have been a minister for 35 years, and l can from the depth of my soul thank God for a good live mayor, and wida-awake their own salvation, My experience has been that in every case where a Gospel minister intCrfcred in politics. he soon lost his spiritual power Jesus, our eXemplar, never once tried 10 run the Roman government no not even when they crucified Him when with one word He could have destroyed them all. Is it not good plan for us to follow Him? Furthermore, the sabbath, the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord, not the Sabbath of the state. It is poor policy for minister to use the politician and coerce him 10 | close up every avenue of pleasure to help fill his church. "Whosoever will may come" is Gods way.

 Q. Is there a larger proportion of foreign born Italians living in the United States naturalized than there is of foreign born Scandinavians?

 e. What is a totem pole'?
 A. IL is the emblem Of totemism. That institution prevails among primitive man. The totem pole that typifles their deity to these simple people is usually carved log or stick, decorated with colors. pie lures, etc, It is erected either in the camp or village where those who accept totemlsm live. Totem poles are found in every continent, and | among many of the primitive races they are still objects of vencration. Q, Is there any way by which grass stains can be taken from wash materials?
 "A, For colored materials, saturl ate the stains with kerosene and then wash the clothes as usual. Clear ammonia will remove grass stains from white goods

The ceiling Is formed of spears, the roof of shields, and the benches strewn with coats of mail. It was supposed to have $40 gates, through each of which 500 men could go abreast.
 Q. Where is the thyroid gland?
 A. This is one of the "ductless g!ands," and Is very vascular gland, lying on the front and sides of the larSnx, composed of connec- tive tissue and follicles containing yiscid coloid substances, the prod uCt of the cells.
