LOYALTY, ILLS
OF WORLD ARE
SERMON TOPICS
Bishop Francis, Rev. TrinkIe
Speak at MONDAY
Services.

Loyal or Disloyal,' was the SUBJ
ject of sermon by Bishop Joseph
Marshall Francis, of the Indian
apolis Episcopal diocese, today at
the noon services in Christ Church
Using as his text Luke 22:3-4,
concerning the betrayal Of Christ
by Judas, Bishop Francis said
No one is more despised than a
traitor. The name Judas has be-
come a synonym for the expression
of our feelings OF disgust and alb
horrence with disloyalty. Christ
called Judas as He did the other
disciples He entrusted him with
the common purse Of his intima te
followers. He admitted him into the
closest fellowship that existed be-
tween Him and His chosen COM
panions.
And for all this, Judas betrayed
his Master and friend. He was not
wholly bad. In fact no one is.
Christ saw in him something that
was capable of high development
But Judas had a besetting sin
avarice"
Service at English's
MONDAY services also were con-
ducted at Englishs Theater, where
the Rev. o. A. Trinkle, pastor of
Englewood Christian Church, used
as his text The Remedy for Be-
wilderco World"
In MS sermon the Rev. Trinkle
said, We are celebrating the events
OF the last days of our Lord preced~
ing His death While 1906 years re-
moved in time yet those events have
potency for life today
Jesus locked upon a bewildered
world, a world that was lost in a
very real sense.
World Still Bewildered
To-day we are living in be-
wildered world. Men and women
are trying every panacea for our
ills. The world is unsettled and
just as unstable. The peace of the
world is in jeopardy. With all the
talk of social security human So
ciety is still insecure.
Man has tried salvation by his
own efforts. Education, culture, en-
vironment. refinement and social
prestige have not saved us. The
Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is
the only thing that will

fertilizer assure a plentiful supply of
plant food. A mixed or complete
fertilizer having a 6-6-5, 5-10-5, or
5-8-7 analysis, when applied evenly
and at the rate of Is to 20 pounds to
1000 square feet, should make an
average lawn good and a good lawn
better.
IF the sod has fair stand of the
u desirable lawn grasses and clov-
ers. there is no need for reseeding.
With proper lime and fertilizer
treatment and with proper moving
and watering during the growing
season, the grass should thicken
and eventually produce solid turf.
However, it is we'll to reseed any
bare patches in lawn. Loosening
the soil with a grub hoe, breaking
up the clods and then raking the
surface, will produce a firm and
fine seeded Scatter the seed, rake
in very lightly, and then roll or
lamp to make firm the surface.
Sometimes the cultivated grasses
are so thin that general reseeding
is desirable. The simplest procedure
then is to scatter the seed, rake
the surface lightly with fine
toothed garden rake, and roll.
Better results usually may be
had, however, by first scattering
top dressing of good soil to a
depth of a quarter inch, and then
working it down by raking or by
dragging a metal doormat or SINH
lar tool over the surface.
On this excellent seeded, grass
seed is then sown, raked in light
ly. and rolled. While the young
seedlings are becoming established,
water them lightly during dry pc
RODS with fine, mist-like spray.
TERTILIZING and reseeding are
Il done to best advantage in very
early spring, about the time the
lawn starts turning green. Late

late crabgrass and other lawn weeds
more than it does the cultivated
grasses.
Postpone the first spring moving
until the grass is at least two
inches long, to stimulate vigorous
root growth. After that the lawn
may be moved as frequently as de-
sired, provided the height of cut is
one inch or longer.
During dry periods you need not
water often, but do it thoroughly.
An occasional thorough soaking of
the soil to a depth of three or four
inches will tend to make the grass
roots grow deeply.

RediStribute your weight with the
corrective gymnastics described in
the leaflet, Hips, Hips, Away"
The little underweights and the
tall slim girls with prominent hips
must add calories to their usual
intake so that hip exercises will
not affect their weight. The dis
proportionate underweightS may
have a bigger hip problem than
the overweights. While calories
are added to bring the weight up
to normal, exercise for the hips will
assure streamlineS.
In all types Of subnormal
weight, both the health and the
figure improve through the addi-
ton of calorieS to the daily menu.
For beauty's sake. these Galleries
should be taken in the form OF
whole milk, whole grains, fresh
fruits and vegetables. If directed
by specific exercise, the desired
pounds and curves will distribute
themselves to the best advan-
tage of your figure.
When hips and overweight oc-
cur in the same figure, then it
is time to diet. Bringing weight
to normal can only be accom-
plished through calorie control.
Singlehanded dieting will not af-
feet the hips in any case, and the
overweight must intensity her
exercise to remove most of the
weight from the hips. General
overweights comprise the only
group that should reduce by
diet, whereas all types must ex-
ercise.
The following exercise, the side
scissors, is valuable for remodeling
hips, whatever your type, and is
the one that leaders in corrective
gymnastics swear by.
Position: Lying on side, head
resting on outstretched arm, other
arm braced against floor at chest
level.
Movement: Using q scissors &c
ton, swing one leg forcefully back
ward and the other forward, keep
ing the leg muscles tensed and toes
pointed. Swing 10 or so times.
Relax. Lie on other side and re-
peat. Change sides, swinging 40
times in all.
This exercise is among those
illustrated in the leaflet, Hips,
Hips Away"
Corrective exercise stimulates
muscle tone, smoothS away bulges,
rounds out hollows, and tapers all
types Of hips into symmetry.

have been sent to James A. Far.
ley and Henry P. Fletcher,

Let's start with the problem Of
normal weight. With normal
weight, whatever your figure fault,
don't make the mistake of dieting.
II you 60 about it in the right way,
you can alter hips without reduc-
ing your weight. Caloric curtail.
ment is the wrong technique for
a problem that is not caused by
excess calories.
In this type figure, lack of ex-
ercise is responsible for the dis
proportionate measurement. You
could diet until hips were your only
curve, without benefit to your fig
ure, health or disposition. There
Is no way out Of exercise for you.
