GROWNUPS URGED
TO PLAY BASEBALL

Health authorities today called
called upon the grownup boys of Min
nesota to go out and play baseball
with their children. The Minnesota
State Medical Association declares
that playing baseball is not only a
splendid exercise but one which re-
lakes the mind and gives the players
something else to think about. Base
ball on the back lot is not for boys
alone but for the fathers, declared
the bulletin of the State Medical So
ciety issued today. The bulletin de-
clares that if more people moved
lawns and chopped wood and played
baseball, we would have healthier
men in the nation.
"The growing boy, and the grown
boy too, needs exercise in order to
keep his health up to par" declares
the bulletin. Exercise can be taken
in many ways-mowing a lawn or
chopping wood is exercise, but to be
of the greatest benefit exercise must
have something in it in addition to
mere bodily motion. There must be
some joy in the doing of it. Base
ball answers all the requirements for
good exercise; it's played out in the
open air; although strenuous at times
there are intervals of rest between
the periods of more violent exertion;
and last but by no means least in
Importance, it brings a whole-souled
joy to the boy in his play. Right
here let me say that man is moth
ing but boy grown up and what
ever is said to the boys-for this
talk particularly for them-can be
applied to their big brothers and their
fathers as we'll.
"Even if we can't all be good ball
players, we can all get some fun and
some mighty good exercise out of
the game. However, in this as in
all sports we must be careful not to
overdo. Don't start in and immedia-
tely try to pitch a full nine-inning
game the first time you get out on
the diamond. Take things easy. The
muscles that you use playing ball are
not used too much ordinarily, and if
you overdo the first time out you may
produce muscle injury that will last
for a long time.
''Not only is baseball a splendid
physical exercise-it helps the mind

GET PLENTY OF SUNSHINE
AND FRESH AIR

Sunshine and fresh air route more

length of time than any other natural
agent of sterilization known to medi-
cal science.
People who have been feeling
grumpy, some who have been weak,
should have nature cure during the
warm days of July.
'If more people would get out into
the air and sunshine these days there
would be better health all around"

of the Minnesota state medical asso-
citation. 1t advises the business man

and drive to the country.
"Too many of us take air too little,
and as a result we lose something Of
that glow of health and that buoyan-
cy of step generally associated with
youth, but which can be preserved al
most indefinitely with the aid of fresh
air and moderate exercise" continues
the bulletin.
Sunshine and fresh air, it is gen.
orally conceded, are greatest natural
agents of sterilization known by med
ical science and the lurking germ Of
disease is often routed when exposed
for any length of time to the air and
sunshine.
Fresh air, too, is a great natural
tonic, and helps build and rehabilitate
blood corpuscles impoverished by too
close confinement indoors.

sion send patients away from the city
for treatment or cenvalescence, one
of the reasons we do so is because

therefore better to breathe.
"Some of the worst odors in the
air are absolutely harmless-some air
which has no odor at all is deadly.
Carbon monoxide gas from the ex-
hausts of automobiles is one of the
latter class, and no man or woman
can remain in air charged with such
an impurity with safety.

''BOILS' ON M-WAYS
GETTING TREATMENT
Sub-grade Drainage Intended to
Prevent EruptiOns when Frost
Goes Out of Roads

When new diseases appears, cure!
must be sought. This is just as true
in highway maintenance as in thu
medical profession. In the highwa!
vocabulary "frost boils" is new
phrase, but no sooner is the malad!
discovered than engineers begin tt
seek the cause and cure. During the
last few years the Minnesota High
way department, the U. S. Bureau Of
Public Roads and highway depart
ments of several states have made ex
tensive studios of sub-grade soils anc
experimental in treatment of frost
boils.
Several short stretches where frost
boils made the highways impossible
in the spring of 1928 were treated
by the Minnesota Highway depart
ment last summer and remained pas
sable all through the 1929 spring
breakup. This year much larger
number of short stretches of highway
which were afflicted with frost boils
this spring, are being treated. The
total distance to be treated is about
ten miles, but it is scattered in short
stretches all over the state, and cur
ing one frost boil may keep long
highway passable.
Frost boils are product of modern
traffic. They occur in clay soil re-
gions or where there is a pocket of
clay in sandy region. When the
frost is out of the upper Is or "a in
ches of the road, and there is Excess
sive moisture which cannot find an
outlet through the frost underneath,
heavy traffic will churn the clay and
water into an impossible mess. Once
the road gets into this condition, it
may be many days or weeks before
traffic can ge through.
Frost boil treatment requires either
reinforcement of the sub-grade, spe-
cial drainage, or combination of the
two. In some cases thing is used.
AT other places trenches are exca-
waited and filled with rock. A third
method is to cut depression In the
center of the road with a tractor and
heavy blade grader and backfill with
gravel, followed by replacing the old
surface material. The method used
depends on the nature of the sub
grade and the material available.
The cost of frost boil prevention
treatment is considerably less than
the cost of hauling cinders or gravel,
steaming to thaw out the frost to
furnish an outlet for water, and
other special devices, that have been
used to make the roads passable after
the frost boils appear in the spring.
Due to the necessity of budgeting
highway maintenance funds for many
purposes, funds are not available this
year to treat all routes that need
treatment but it :; planned to do
more of this work in 1880.

new TRUCKS help
REDUCE WAVES
Highway Department Adds
More Motor Equipment-Win
Aid in Fighting Snow

Flfty-six new heavy trucks are be-
ing put into service by the mainten-
ance division of the Minnesota High
way department this month, as an
other step in the motorization of
maintenance work on the state truk
highways. The trucks are of five
standard makes. They will be dis
tributed among the sixteen mainten-
ance districts.
The new trucks are painted bright
orange, to make them conspicuous
and help to prevent accidents. Each
truck is equipped to pull grader for
smoothing gravel roads, push snow
pillow in the winter and haul gravel
and other material needed in high
way maintenance. Special lights are
provided for use in snow blowing.
work.
Highway maintenance at the start
was done by team patrols, but motor
lied equipment was introduced grad
ually and last year more than half of
the system was maintained by power
machinery. The new trucks will per-
NIT further extension of motor
maintenance, although teams will
still be used on some of the routes
with lighter traffic.
An equal number of old trucks was
traded as part payment for the new
units but most of the old trucks were
of type too light for snow blowing
and grader work. The new equip
ment will help reduce the washboards
which are produced by heavy traffic
on unpaved roads in summer and will
assure quicker opening of snow block
ed highways next winter.

In his book Political Behavior"
Frank R. Kent, writer for the Balti-
more Sun, and an astute student of
politics and politicians says: Prob
ably the most important single ac-
complishment for the politically am
bilious, is the fine art of seeming to
say something without doing so. Out
side of the professionals and the job
holders, there are certainly not more
than 100000 persons exercising their
right te-vote who are accurately in
formed, keenly and continuously in
terested in either national or state
politics. One of the inherent and in
eradicable traits of the American
voters is that they infinitely prefer
to vote against something os some
body than for them. The one great
mistake for a candidate is to impose
upon his constituents the necessity
for real mental effort, in other words
to make them think.

variety of troubles.
The summer breezes are them
selves an invitation for us to get out
of doors, and it is true that with the
season of outdoor sports and past
times the bloom returns to many a
pale cheek and the spring to many a
step. We cannot spend all our time
out of doors, but we owe it to our
health to give our lungs a treat and
our bodies tonic whenever we can.
"Stay outdoors, walk outdoors, and
play outdoors as much as possible
during the summer months and you
will gain reserve of energy and
health that will be bulwark against
the attacks of winter ailments. Avoid
the stuffy room and your health will
benefit"

as well. After hard day in school
or at work, couple of hours on the
baseball diamond will relax your
mind and give you something else to
think about.
Zone thing that should not be lost
sight of is that not every boy is ply
sically fit to play baseball, and before
he tries it he should be examined by
his family physician and to make
sure that there's nothing wrong with
his heart or lungs and that he is
strong enough to play.
"And now a word for the grown
up boys! Most of you are too fond
of getting your exercise in the grand
stand and watching others. That's
better than staying indoors, to be
sure, but a moderate amount of ac-
tive participation is still better"

The Texan was asked by Senator
Bruce of Maryland. a wet. whether he
was aware that "a large number of

that If the Senator mentioned it he did
so In rather gingerly fashion"
Senator Sheppard eulogized the work
Of the W. c. T. u. and the Anti-Saloon

the prohibition laws.
THE Women's Christian Temperance
Union" he said, has become one of
the principal factors in the advance

nance of its effectiveness.
THE Anti-Saloon League, organized
IN 1893, has exercised vigilance and a
power for the cause of prohibition prob
