The Stenographers Hump and the

physiological developments.
They have been described and

Sunken chests, humps between

from modern bad posture today's
bulletin from the Minnesota State

Stenographer's Hump and the Can

nearly every office. They represent
a distinct, chronic bend in the spine
at each end. The victim has been
making an arc out of her back
bones, and the result is not merely
deformity but crowded and mis-
placed organs with resultant fatigue
and possible disease.
Good posture is nearly as impor-

bad habits may be corrected be-

Tractor on the Highway
Problem Being Studied
Conference Aims to Protect Road
Surface Without Hardship on
Machine Users

The problem of moving tractors
and other farm machinery over
modern highways without Destroy
ference held last week at the Of
fees of the Minnesota Highway de-
partment. Participating were main
tenance engineers of the Minnesota
and Wisconsin highway depart
ments, representatives of thresher-
mems organizations, and engineers
representing ten of the largest
manufacturers of tractors and
threshing machines.
Those present pledged their CO.
operation in making a careful study
of the whole problem. An effort
will be made both to find a me-
chanical solution and in framing
highways without hardship on
farmers and other tractor operat-
ors. The aid of the U. S. Bureau
of Public Roads will be sought in
making experiments to determine
what types of wheels may be oper-
ated on various types Of roads with
out damage. The desirability of
uniform legislation in all the states
was emphasized.
Damage by tractors with sharp
Tugs is greatest on oil, tar and as
phalt roads. Any bituminous sur
face, whether it has gravel maca-
dam or concrete base may be SER
iously damaged - by wheels with
sharp metal projections. In many
cases the cost of repairing damage
done by tractor on a short trip,
is greater than the value of the ma
chine.
1t was pointed out that, due to
their high cost, hard-surfaced roads
can be built only on the main high
ways carrying the heaviest traffic.
In order to conserve gravel and
keep maintenance costs down,
there will be an increased use of
bituminous treatments on trunk
highways carrying medium heavy
traffic and on the more havily
travelled county roads. Since agri-
culture is the basic industry in Min
nesota and other states in the CEN
trail west, a means must be found
of protecting these'>roads without
hampering operations or preventing
the use of modern machinery.
Two possible methods were sug-
gested, the use of detachable bands
on the wheels, and the use of wheels
with Tugs or bands so made that
they will not cut the road sur
faces, but will afford traction in
soft ground. The groblem presents
two phases: standardization in the
future manufacture of tractor
wheels and providing suitable at
tachments for tractors already in
use.
From the highway maintenance
standpoint, tractors on concrete do
not offer a serious problem. While
some damage may be done to the
highway, usually there is greater
damage to the machine, and tractor
owners avoid these roads if they
can find any other route.

A Greater Poppy Sale to Meet
a Greater Need

When the people of America go
to the cemeteries on Memorial Day
this year they will find more than
$4,000 soldiers graves which were
not there the year before. For the
last year World War veterans have
been dying at the average rate OF
70 a day, large part of them from
the results of their war service.
These men are just as truly victims
of the war as those who were killed
in battle and the peoples which we
wear on Poppy Day will honor them
as we'll as all the other Americans
who sacrificed their lives for their
country.
It is estimated that rs per cent
of the veterans who have died in
the last year left families, averag-
ing two children to the family.
This means that nearly 10000 de-
pendent children have been added
in the last year to the thousands
whose welfare must be safeguarded
by the Legion and Auxiliary. In
addition to the children of the
dead, there are the children of the
disabled. An average of $500 vet
Grams entered the government hos
pitfalls each month during 1929,
very many of them leaving depend
ent families at home. These facts
explain why the welfare work OF
the Legion and Auxiliary is increas-
ing steadily and why we must sell
fhic
AS every Auxiliary member
knows, the funds from the poppy
sale are the principal means of
support for our vast program OF
relief and rehabilitation work.
Without the dimes, quarters and
dollars which come to us through
the poppy sale we would be forced
to watch helplessly the distress OF
the disabled veterans the struggles
and privations of the families OF
the dead and disabled, and the suf-
ferings of little children deprived
of their fathers support by the war.
The poppy sale gives Auxiliary
Units an opportunity to build up
their relief funds against the de-
mands of the year ahead. On the
success of the sale depends much
of the success of the Units work in
child welfare and rehabilitation.
The primary purpose of the pop
py sale of course, is to pay tribute
to the World War dead. The wear
ing of the poppy is beautiful Gus
totm. There is no finer way OF
showing that the people of America
still remember and honor the SER
vice and sacrifices of the men who
gave their lives for the country. We
want every person possible to have
this little red symbol of sacrifice on
his coat on Poppy Day, and II our
poppy sale accomplished nothing
else this touching tribute to the
dead would be worth the fullest eff
forts of every Auxiliary member.
When we realize that the poppy
sale is not only means OF paying
honor to our war dead but also
means of helping the living victims
