COMPULSORY VOTING

Serious consideration may well be
given to ballot reform inaugurated
IN Australia through the passage of a
law penalizing the non-voter. A fine
is imposed under this statute upon
those who fail to perform the most
important peace-time duty of citizen
shlp-that of voting. Surely a gov
eminent which has the power to con-
script every citizen in time of war,
has the right to penalize the citizen

Rules for Health
By DOUGLAS MALLCCH

THE rich are not the rich in wealth,
- For richer he who's rich in health.
Whatever goods you buy or sell,
Who would stay rich must first stay
well.
Man learns no wisdom in the schools
More wise than these ten simple rules ::
1. Who works indoors, outdoors,
must play,
And walk at least mile day.
2. Closed windows always are sin,
So let little outdoors in.
8. And, if indoors by day you keep,
Then out-of-doors you ought to
sleep.
4. The hours to spend in slumber
then
For elders eight, for children ten
8. Eat slowly, not too much of meat,
And something rough as well as
sweet.
6. Use water freely, it's about
Our greatest boon, inside or out.
Z. And walk and stand and sit erect f;
1t helps your health and self-re-
spect.
8. Breathe deeply, keep your mind
serene,
And keep both mind and body
clean.
8. Avoid the folks who cough and
SneeZe
Or violate such rules as these.
10. The tenth rule is of all the gem !:
Be moderate in all Of them.

PENSACOLA, Fla, Sept. 3D.
This city, shut off from the outside
world for three days while the
West Indian hurricane dashed the
Gulf Coast, resumed business as
usual today while preparations were
made to repair the havoc.
With no lives lost, and none re-
ported injured, Pensacola, considered
itself lucky that it weathered the
hurricane with less than 100000
damage, most Of which was done to
public utilities, such as wharves,
docks, telephone, railroad and power
companies.
Pensacola received ample warn
ing Of the coming Of the hurricane
and made its preparations accord.
ingly. Business was suspended at
the first rise in the wind, people
locked themselves in their houses
and waited patiently for the gale
to cease.
In less than two hours after the
storm passed, citizens drained the
water from their streets and took
a survey of the damage. Very lit
tie private property was destroyed.
although a few small houses were
unroofed.
A relief train dispatched here
from Tallahassee turned back when
it was found that Pensacola needed
no help.

the champion as the hour for the
fight approaches, said he would like
to bet 500, 900 on Dempsey at odds
of 21a to 1. In other words. he is
willing to risk 100000 against
SAC, 900 Of Tunney money.
When the two gladiators crawl
through the ropes tonight the huge
crowd, packed in, tier on tier in
the great horseshoe stadium, will
see two splendid specimens OF
American manhood; two men in
the proverbial pink of condition"
after weeks and months of ard1ous
training.
Dempsey coming here from At
lantic City and Tunney from his
camp near Stroudsburg, will be in
the best of physical shape. There
is some doubt about the mental
condition of Dempsey who in the
last 10 days has been harassed by
series of legal moves and court
actions fired at him by his enemies.
He has laughingly declared he has
not been worried by the court ac-
ton and his friends say such tactics
will only serve to make the cham
pion a furious fighter when he
faces the cool, calculating Tunney.
Richard went ahead with his
plans to sell the $4,000 tickets that
remain unsold. They are expected
to be snapped up by noon when
ticket headquarters will be closed.
The seats that were unsold were in
the $3.50, S22 and S16.5O sections.
Ticket scalpers have overrun the
city. They have Haunted their
wares openly in the face of prom
ised arrests by both local police and
Federal officials. They asked-and
in some instances got-$5O0 each
