CTREEGTH is not entirely brute
~ force. According to recent writer
In the Popular Science Monthly,
ability to handle heavy weights Is
quite as much a matter of skill as
of strength.
DIR. ]. f. Williams, professor Of
physical training at Columbia univer-
sity. has been studying this interest
ing question of lifting for many years
and In his article gives some valuable
suggestions as to how heavy objects
can be lifted easily and safely.
The strongest muscles in the body,
he says, are the thigh muscles. When
ever possible to do so, use the thighs
and legs In lifting rather than the
back. The shoulder muscles are also
strong and can be well used in lift
ing. The weight at the ends Of the
arms is at the end of a long lever.
In picking up a heavy object from the
ground the fulcrum is at the pelvis
and the strain and mechanical dis
advantage are terrific. In picking up
a weight, squat with the back straight,
grasp the object and then straighten
up. raising the weight with the legs.
Keep the weight as close to the
body as possible. The farther away 1t
is the farther it has to be lifted and
the more lost effort there is.
Cinnamon have learned from long
centuries of experience to balance one
weight against another. A Chinese
porter will divide his load into two
equal parts, balance one against the
other on the two ends of a long pole
and trot off with a load that white
man could hardly bulge.
The expressman or trunk mover
never strains his back. He doesn't
have to. He moves the trunk on his
thigh muscles. When he wants to
carry it he gets under it. He also
knows that 1t isn't necessary to lift
a trunk. clear off the floor in order
to move it. He tips the trunk or the
box on the edge and then onto one
point and rolls 1t so as to move it
with the least amount Of effort. The
weight of the trunk is really on the
floor. (. The trunk mover is keeping
it balanced and merely directing 1t,
moving it without having to bear its
weight Oh q Et&
Doctor Williams gives four rules for
handling heavy weights easily and
safely:
/. Keep the weight close to the
body,
2 Use the leg muscles whenever
possible.
3. Divide and balance the weight.
4. Get the weight on top of your
own
BY following these rules heavy
weights can be handled without
danger Of injury to the joints and
muscles.

School at Gettysburg
Was Battle Hospital

The building that housed the first
classical school west of the SusQue.
hanna river is still standing in Gettys-
burg, Pa, says the Baltimore Sun. The
UNCOVERED stone building, known as
the Dobbin house. was erected in 1774
by Rev. Alexander Dobbin, a native of
Ireland, who came to this country in
1913.
For more than thirty years, Mr..
Dobbin conducted his school and many
men, who later became prominent pub
lie citizens, were scholars. Early In
the Nineteenth century the Dobbin
school failed for some reason not re.
corded.
During the battle of Gettysburg the
Dobbin house was used as an emer-
gency field hospital, being at the edge
of the fighting area. Men of both
sides We're cared for in the building.
A spring of water in the basement was
the mecca for hundreds of soldiers
while the battle ragged. Several fam
lilies now occupy the property.

MUSIC LURE IS
 HEARD BY MANY
But Comparatively Few Only
 Achieve Any Success

New York, June 16 P>-Fame and wealth as an artist is an alluring picture that attracts hundreds of young men and women 10 New York. But only few achieve their am- bitions.
 Some fall because the pathway is filled with heavy obstacles. Others are lacking in talent. The small number that succeed know what il means to go through long and lean years.
 Realizing the necessity of bridging the gap between the time the teach CT pronounces a young artist ready for the public platform and the period when he becomes established and self-supporting, the National Music League was organized. It is headed by Mrs Otto II. Kahn and directed by Harold Vincent Miligan.
 'I can take you to almost any movie thoator in the city and point out talented artists in orchestras who several years ago had page ad. YcrtisenCnts Tn musical papers and were trying to make a name for themselves" Mir. ATilligan said. "The expense and lack of opportunity to perform were too great and most of them have had their spirit crushed
 A commercial manager can not mak" money on an artist until the latter has reached the point where he gcts four or five hundred dollars an engagement When our artists reach this stage, We shall, Of course, assist them in getting commercial managers
 Those accepted by the League pass additions judged by numerous per sons prominent in the musical world of the country. Booking agents ob- tain engagements which pay up to $5pQ, according 10 artist presented. Approximately $i6,ooo has been paid performers to date.
 Out of GOO additions held. twenty filc artists have been selected as cN- ceptionally good, while about fifty seven have been rated as promising and worthy of encouragement Most all of thom come from cities other than New York.
 The jury's criticism is given 10 each individual so that faults may be overcome and in cases where ta- lcnt is lacking he may go into an- other field.
 Fifty artists selected hy the League appear in the annual Sta dium concerts in New York. The or ganiZation also administers the Walter W. Naumbcrg fund which this year provides for six recitals by young artists.

Through he Static

The weather failed to worry radio ! reception last night. True, many stations were faint and most of the
 others faded into vapid nothingness ! at times, but static was surprisingly absent, Just a little touch here and there 10 remind you that there was such a thing and make you appre-
 ciate that it was taking a night off. Our notes are rather tumbled, and We cant tell what We heard first. but the stations We heard and what we thought of them are about as follows; Come little closer; some
 of this may be as faint as the sta tions mentioned below)
 The popular and classic piano re- cl'al through WPG was very pleas ing, but the announcer seemed to be working against time and went so fast we could not make out who were the artists, Violin numbers punctuated the offerings of the pianists.
 WEEI Boston must have fallen for the monkey gland cure; at any rate, 1t seemed a completely rejuvenated station. Usually we barely hear this station, even on the best nights, but last evening, it came through very clear and loud indeed, much 10 our surprise and pleasure, as we selected this moment to show some visitors how the set worked. Jack Alhin's orchestra was playing at the time, and 10 show our uninitiated callers a thing CT two We spun the dials and heard the same thing from WEAF itself. but the sound from here was as weak as a pitcher is at batting. XIV Chicago crawled in some what exhaust edly and We didn't wait 10 find out what was going on. WEAR Cleveland proved worse. Bu, KDkA was fine. We think this sta ton has been placed on probation or has mendcd it's ways, for We have no trouble at all lately in tuning il in and we can't see why all the oth- CT nuts like ourselves seem bent on heaping abuse on il. The program was from the office Of the Pittsburgh Post. but the orchestra stoppen just as we dialed in. and we certain " weren't interested in the weather report for western Pennsylvania and southern Indiana.
 CKAC up at Montreal was faint, colorless, and uninviting. II was time for George Olsen, and We hur- riad back across the line without any interference from revenue agents, arriving safely at WIZ just in time 10 hear the Pennsylvania special pull in The boys were in rare mood last night and did everything except tear off the roof beneath them. Their program was marred. however by the heavy way in which it came in; reception was guttural,
 Indeed and even the yiolins sounded like bass horns.
 WBZ vas flawless as to reception. of course. The "Grecnfeld Hour" was just concluding with "Amcrica, the Beautiful" played hy a band which we did not identify, but ,he hour must have been a pleasing one if 1t was all like the finale.
 WGY over at Schenectady was q trial last night. We tried it once carly in the evening and got nothing except whine. Later We came back for the Beaver hour to find the reg

ularly announced program coming in loudly but the same whine even louder This whine spread all over this section of the dial and made us wonder whether the remedy was to fix the whistle or shoot the dog.
 Got little touch Of the old time radio thrill when we stumbled across WBBM from Chicago. We do not get these windy city stations very often these days and to hear musi- cal program Of orchestra pieces fol- lowed by the announcement of its source was gratifying. We waited for another sound, this time a solo, ito make sure we were correct.
 Baltimore Is getting 10 be quite a regular caller and again last night the municipal band from this Mary land city was on the air,
 Everybody IS not as keen for WIZ on Tuesday nights as we are, but we just had to listen to Frank Dole giving his weekly talk on dogs, the new feature, "One-up. Cut Ups" with their comedy batter and songs. Old Man Donaldson's story in the Gems Of Romance series and also the Grand Tour. Last evenings s grand tour would have been espe- cially interesting to the fair sex since shopping was the theme.
 Al o'clock We heard Paul White mans orchestra over WNYC. Of couso we know that Paul himself is in Europe, but the orchestra sound ed just as good without him. An hour and q half later We heard Woodmanstcn's orchestra from the same station and then remained to hear Ernie Golden's orchestra. The more discriminating may be able to tell a Whicman band from another, but to us any good orchestra sounds the same.
 Crcatore's band was on tho air from WIG at 2 o'clock and we lis tened for few minutes. Enjoyed this especially since We heard tn" famous Creatore and his band at tho Lyccum on their return trip from the Frisco exposition several years ago. From this same station We got q bit Of the program from tho Ash Welch Male chorus. We heard them in this city too.
 Al 7:&o wc dialcd frriously for WEAR where program Waa listed as "Glimpses through tho stag" door," We were disappointed since there were no word pictures of any -limps"s which had 10 do with bath tubs, ladies of tho chorus in diSha- bile CT anything, so went further,
 The Associated Press talk at WIZ tonight will bo made by Norris A. Huso. Of the executive staff Of the general offices in New York; He will speak at 10 o'clock. This scr les of Wednesday night talks will be concluded for the season next week with some experiences by George Nacdcr, general day news editor.
