sudden violent effort overtaxing the strength, is
apt cause rupture no matter HOW the effort is made
When lifting anything heavy, LIFT SLOWLY, and NEVER
exceed your strength think Smart to lift than
you ought to do.

When you bend your backbone and try to lift
weight by STRENGTHENING the backbone, you risk
spinal injury that may last all your life.

PRAGUE, June 30.-The eighth
Sokol gymnasucal festival, held here
every six years, opened Saturday

tinents to participate in the ma
tlonal carnival.
The principal features Of the II
day festival period will be the Gales
thcnic drills, in which more than
1900 men and 1900 women will
take part in unity. Special ccre-
monies have been planned for July
:, in celebration Of the anniversary
Of the American Independence. The
2000 delegates from the United
states, who are members of the
American Sokol society, will be the
guests of honor ut the celebration.
The SokOl movement was begun
more than 60 years ago as AN organ
ization designed to throw off the
yoke of Austrian rule. The first or
@anizcd effort to unite the people
Of CZecho-SIovakia was made by
Dr.. Mroslav Tyrs with view to
national cmancipation. Natural
caution forced Tyrs, however,, to
hide his intention and he merely
gathered his small band of follow
crs together in gymnastic classes.
The movement at the beginning
had less than 10000 members, bur
as il gradually TUNED from its orig
inal purpose Of meeting as a secret

and physical benefit of the nation,
its membership has grown to include

men were first admitted to mcm-
bcrShip i'll 1908 when 6799 were al.
lowed to join the organization. The
total membership of women at the
present time is 93,il2.
The FIRST national festival of the

mated that the present games will
