ish Medical Society," one authority
expressed the opinion that there
now is less backache in women than
there USED to be twenty or thirty
years ago, because girls now are
brought up in a more natural man
ner.
Since girls have been permitted
to come out of the seclusion of the
home and to participate in outdoor
sports, walking and other forms of
exercise, they have enjoyed the
benefits of fresh air and sunlight
and have developed bones and liga-
ments better able to Withstand the
stress of life.

Editor TimeS-To start with,
take The Times every day and would
not take any other newspaper.
You are doing a lot to open the
eyes of the people, yet it is a shame
you can not go to it full force, but I
support there are too many that are
not ready for it.
The thing I want to say is this:
feel there are many homes to be
lost, due to inability to pay taxes.
If there was move to give the peo-
pie at least thirty days or sixty, it
would save many a home for the
little fellow who never will want to
buy or own property again after
losing at this age. They are losing
their self-respect and the outcome
VII be sad lot of aged people.
When war is called, they want the
flower of the land to go out and
fight. Will any one explain this to
me? The older one stays back and
waves the flag and the younger ones
go forth to be slaughtered like hogs
at packing house for the glory of
the broken older ones to read and
blow over.
1t is high time the younger ones
take things in hand.
There is no work for them and
their homes are subject to sale, so
what will be the outcome if the
young ones do not take a hand?
The banks close with the poor
losing their savings and nothing is
done about it. They build great
monuments and expect the unem-
ployed to enjoy them, with the glory
even OF that given to crooks in Of
fee. The boy goes to school for
years, doing without needed things,
and the parents have to face the
small voice saying, there is no
work" just think of it, in world
of plenty.
Now they talk of cuts in salaries
of government employees and all the
rest of that bunk. Well, that is
where it should have started.
ALI 1 can say is that mothers
who have been asleep should awake
and see to it that our boys are not
used for cannon fodder again in a
bloody war

Craze Trouble
Cemetery Sexton Objects
to Filling Bottle of
Wine All Day.

BIZ United Press
TOULON, France, Dec. 5.-An
Il elderly Toulon woman's dy-
ing request, that bottle of wine
and a glass be kept beside her
grave at all times, has given rise
to heated controversy among
municipal officials.
Madame Lucie Bevvy, just be-
fore she died, wrote the wine
clause into her will, declaring that
people should be able to drink
while visiting cemeteries.
After she had been buried, a
table was set up beside her grave,
bottle of red win and a glass
were placed on it.
Certain thirsty, if not pious,
citizens of Toulon Immediately be-
gan making frequent visits to the
graveSide. The situation became
such, in fact, that at times a line
was formed at the table and the
sexton charged with carrying out
the terms of the will, was kept
busy all day long keeping the bot
tie filled
Eventually, the job became too
much for him and he complained
to police. The matter has come
to the official attention of the
city authorities and a movement
is on foot to have water placed on
the table instead of wine.

HOOVER MAKES LAST
LAME DUCK BUDGET
ROOsevelt's Successor to Start Office
With Clean Slate.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The
budget President Herbert Hoover is
sending to congress this week is the
last which will be prepared by a
defeated or retiring executive.
Franklin D. Roosevelt will have
to work, for a year and a half after
his Inauguration, under budgets
prepared by his predecessor, but
when he leaves Office, the man who
follows him will be able to start with
a clean slate, and prepare his own
budget as soon as he takes office.
This change will be brought about
by adoption of the lame duck
amendment. When that becomes
law, congress will convene Jan. 4
instead of the first Monday in De-
cember.
The new President will be inaugu-
rated jan 20, and will have a con-
gressional session not limited in
length, during which he may pre-
sent his recommendations on fiscal
matters.

CHANGES URGED
IN MAKEUP OF
CHURCH COUNCIL
Reorganization Proposal to
Be Made at Opening of
Farley Here.

Changes in the organization of
the Federal Council of Churches in
America will be proposed in recon-
mendations to be submitted at the
opening of the quadrennial meeting
Tuesday at the SEVERN.
The report of the function and
structure committee prepared Sun
day under Craftsmanship of DR..
George w. Richards, president of
the theological seminary of the Re-
formed Church of America, will urge
the council be made a smaller unit
and meet every two years, instead
Of every four.
Notice also is taken in the report
of the two schools of thought on
the church's pronouncement on So
cial and moral questions.
Urge Frank Discussion
"There are two distinct functions
the council should discharge in this
field" the report says. "One of these
is to be moral witness on issues
in which there is enough of COM
mon mind to make a pronounce
ment possible, and the other of ed
ucation through study and frank
discussion and publication of the
results on issues in which we face
a divided opinion
Membership in the council
would be on the basis of three rep
resentativeS for each of the twenty
six denominations, with an addi-
tional member for every 100000
communicates, if the report of the
committee is followed This would
reduce the membership from 400
to slightly more than 300.
Two public meetings, one to
discuss the part the church can play
in world peace and the other to
outline a gospel for an age of con-
fusion will be held.

Of Mt. Holyoke college and United
