"And the cities are going to

no tax on gasoline used in farm
tractors and stationery engines,
and this plan is to be continued.
The attitude of Governor Chris
Hanson also has given an impetus
to the plan for an increase in the
gasoline tax. The governor in
his message called attention to re-
ports that have been made to the
effect that the oil companies, be-
cause they distribute on a regional
basis, are charging just as high a
price for gasoline in Minnesota as
they do in other neighboring states
where the tax is higher. If this
is the case, the governor said, we
are paying higher gas tax now
without getting it, and the tax
should be increased so that this
money will go to the roads of the
state instead of into the profits Of
the oil companies.

Earned His "Tip"

Tipping was not unknown 100
years ago, one may see from the fol-
lowing article that appeared in
Pittsburgh paper in 1928:
"Mr. Beale received from Phila-
delphia on Monday last an entire
load Of oysters, principally in the
shell. The wagner was laden ex-
clusively with oysters. He was IL
days only on the road and he re-
ceived 500 carriage. In conse-
quence Of his expedition and his at
tentive and careful management Mr.
Beale paid the wagner $38 more
than the amount usually received
for the amount Of lading."-Detroit

No Snakes in Green Isle

The biological survey says that
there are no snakes native to Ire
aand and never have been, so far
as there are authentic records. This
is due to it's geographic position,
isolated as it is from the region
in which these vertebrates orig
mated and which they now occupy.
"A few attempts have been made to
introduce harmless species, but as
yet it's records show none estab-
lished on the island. This may be
due to lack of proper environ
ment, climate, disease or other alb
normal condition. The showroom
or lag-worm, legless lizard which
specifically looks very much like
a snake, is native of Ireland, and
may account for some of the snake
records Of that country.

Horse Racing Old Sport

Horse racing has been called the
sport of kings" because it has been
one of their amusements since the
earliest dawn of civilization. Tho
times I Of the Eighteenth Egyp-
tian dynasty left papyrus letter
telling of his conquest Of Mesopo-
tamia and priding himself upon the
acquisition Of the racing horse (the
Arab), and being the fir to in
troduce him in Africa. S mewhat
later the records tell of King Solo
mon buying horses from Egypt and
paying as much as $4,000 for some
Of them. Among the Greeks horse
racing was introduced into the
Olympic games in the thirty-third
Olympiad GAS B. c..

Sensible Health Rules
for Busy Business Man
Minnesota State Medical Associa-
ton Issues Bulletin Containing
Practical Suggestions

SL. raul, April 0.-WlCn the
coming of spring there are ten
little health commandments that
will make every business man in
the state healthier and happier"
This is the slogan on bulletin
issued today by the educational
committee of the Minnesota State
Medical Association urging peo-
pie who have spent much time in
their offices during the winter to
get out into the open at the earl
lest possible occasion.
The ten health habit hints by the
Medical Association are:
/. Play some athletic game
three times each week.
2. Spend one afternoon each
week in the open.
! 3. Walk at least mile each
day.
| 4. Breathe deeply several times
daily.
5. Sleep eight hours with win
dows open.
6. Eat fresh fruit and green
vegetables daily.
! 7. Chew all food well.
8. Drink at least one quart
of water daily.
9. Take bath and a vigorous
rub down daily.
10. Have a periodic health ex-
animation.
Strength does not make health,
but the activities used to secure
strength tend to produce health, by
the physiologic results which they
induce" says the bulletin.
Secret methods are sheer
buncombe. 1t is true that some
types of exercises are relatively
more beneficial than others, but
from the statement the physical
culturists present, one is led to be-
lieve that they are in possession of
a magic key to long life that will
be revealed when the proper fees
are produced. In making these
statements the big muscle men play
on mass ignorance of commonly
accepted physiologic laws.
physical activity has the effect
of increasing metabolism - old
cells are broken down, new cells
formed, the blood flow increased,
respiration increased and other
organic functions generally activat-
ed. This condition results from
all activity in proportion to the
nervousness and the continuity of
the work done, and is not the pro-
duct of any special hidden method
or order of activity. Physiolog-
lists and hygienists have studied
these problems for years and up to
the present time have discovered
no secret methods for the produc-
ton of health.
''The best type of exercise for
adults is to be secured through
golf, tennis, volley ball, hand
ball, playground ball, riding, boat
ing, fishing, hunting, hiking, and
camping. The peculiar advantage
of activity of this sort is that it is
for the most part done out of
doors and is mentally as well as
physically wholesome and stimulat-
ing.
"It so happens that great num-
Der Of adults, either temporarily or
permanently, are prevented from
engaging in activities of this sort.
Business pressure, lack of facili-
ties, lack Of funds, inconvenience,
all combine to interfere with par
ticipation in sports. Individuals in
this situation should perform some
calisthenic exercise at home.

Leadership Needs

1t takes rare combination OF
qualities to furnish leader A
leader must not be afraid to admit
all the facts before he goes into the
battle, but he must admit them
cheerfully and not in depressed
manner, with a cOuntenance of
gloom. A leader must realize that
his followers will not long be de-
ceived by "bunk," but he must
have more kind and generous words
than hard words. Above all lead
er must be completely possessed by
q spirit of justice.
