The exchange, making the announcement through
Ed +. Miller, sales manager, takes the attitude that
the way TO start anything is TO start. and announces

Fine thing about the announcement is the de-

With other agencies. but to proceed.
It is easy 10 predict that If the exchange continues

Way to Settlement

Senator Willard 4. Tydings has proposed an in
ternational conference at Washington to deal with
all the postwar international problems. ranging
from the war debts down to armament reduction
and currency sterilization.
While the present state Of public opinion in the
nations of the Notwithstanding our own-may make
such proposal premature. 1t at least indicates the
real nature Of the problem that c~onfronts Us.
Until there is some sensible settlement Of these
pressing issues. there can be no real return to world
prosperity. There may be a whole host Of difficult
ties in the way Of such settlement: there are enough
headaches in the currency question alone. for in
stance. to keep statesmen busy for months.
But sooner or later these things must be settled.
and settled intelligently. It is encouraging, at least,
to see a dawning realization Of the fact in the
United States senate.

Schools on Defensive

DR.. Edwin C.. Broome. superintendent OF schools IN
Philadelphia. tells the National Society Of New Eng
land that there seems to be a countrywide move
ment' to discredit the school system. on the ground
that it is largely responsible for the high cost Of
government.
The warning Is well-timed. Our school system is
expensive; granted. 1t may be that a judicious
pruning OF the budget here and there would be a
good thing. But In the main. the taxpayer gets
more for his money In the educational system that
he supports than he does in any other single tax
supported venture.

Heart Most Efficient,
Most Durable Engine
BY DIR oRR FIsHBEIN
Editor. Journal of the American Medical Association
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine

Beating on an average $500 times in an hour or over
3O.OO0,OOO times in a year. the heart is one Of the most
powerful engines known to science. II is the most
marvellous engine because il never stops completely
until death.
Each time your heart beats. about three ounces OF
blood are delivered to the large blood vessels which
carry the blood to the outermost parts Of the body.
Therefore, over six quarts Of blood leave your heart
every hour, and it actually handles about So gallons
a day.
The heart develops pa horsepower per day, exert
ing enough energy to raise So pounds one foot per
minute. or TO move a. tons one foot per day. yet the
entire organ is actually about the size Of an ordi-
nary mans fist and thus represents as much concen-
trated energy as many high explosives.
If your heart is working satisfactorily you pay
no attention to its actions because there is no way
in which you will be aware OF them. II is only when
The heart begins 10 be deficient in its activities that
We become concerned. because then We find ourselves
unable to work without fatigue and breathlesSness.
To work properly the heart must be supplied con-
stantly with oxygen and with nutrition. 1t gets its
own blood supply from the blood vessels which come
off from the large arteries into which the blood is
delivered.
If the heart has been suitably conserved by suitable
periods Of rest and relaxation. by good nutrition and
by freedom from infection. it comes to the age Of
30 IN fairly good condition. II, however, you have
failed TO have adequate rest. sufficient fresh air
and sleep. the heart at so will be older than normal,
and IL will let you know that IL is older by giving
signs Of its inability to carry on in complete mea-
sure.
Here are 10 heart commandments which you should
keep to prolong your life:
l. DO not subject your heart TO sudden strenuous
or prolonged physical exertion.
?. Eat regularly. slowly and temperately.
3. II you are excessively overweight, seek sound
counsel as to how best to dispense with this form Of
heart handicap.
4. Try to avoid physical activity for at least 30
minutes after eating. particularly after the heaviest
meal of the day.
5. Avoid emotional stress and strain. Worry Is an
important factor in its relation to heart strain.
6. BY appropriate measures. keep your body as free
as possible from so-called foci Of infection.
z. Regular intestinal elimination Is highly impor-
tant.
8. Average not less than eight hours Of sleep in
a room abundantly supplied with fresh air.
9. Perennial health demands a proper balance be-
tween work, play and rest.
10. A periodic examination may often reveal de-
fects Of which you are totally unaware. A stitch in
time saves ninel
