ing it must be to the Baltimore Sun,
who tried to sway the voters against
this administration with their timely
Editorial. Before their straw vote
hardly got under way, announcing
their inability to support our Presi-
dent, then running glaring headline
concerning a statement made by Mr..
Albert Graham, official of the First
National Bank of Baltimore, that 80
per cent of the thinking people want
ed to see Roosevelt beaten, but re-
fused to publish letter asking Mr..
Graham who in his opinion these 80
per cent thinksrs were; perhaps he
refers to the 10 per cent who held
and controlled the wealth, and, in his
opinion, are the only ones capable Of
thinking.
am sure this group doesn't include
the bankers, who were the first to
receive financial assistance, and have
been put on such sound and safe
basis, that you seldom ever hear Of a
bank closing it's doors anymore.
And what about Senator Couzens,
Republican, of Michigan, who thinks
our Presidents reelection is of far
more Importance to the country than
his own ambition to again be elected
to Congress.
Then Mr.. Winnant, three times Re-
publican Governor of New Hampshire
and late Chairman of the Social Sc
curity Board, now resigned that he
might be free to help elect Roosevelt;
also Mrs. Charles S. Whitman, wife of
former Republican Governor of New
|; York, who says no argument can
stand against the statements from her
bank, showing steady increase in the
income of her children trust funds,
which were at their lowest during the
Former administration. These and
many thousand more Republicans are
this year going to vote for Roosevelt.
Are not these included in our think
ers?
Governor Landon has promised that
if elected, he will recommend the re-
peal of that surplus tax legislation,
estimated to raise $5OO,OOO,OOO to
help balance the Budget, but doesn't
explain where he will find the nec-
essary funds to take it's place, that
he may be able to carry on. Per-
haps he will resort to the sales tax,
once so ably advocated by his distin-
guished friend, VIM. Randolph Hearst,
who also claims the honor of picking
Mr.. Landon for the common people.
What a laugh?
Now to cap the climax, the Repub-
licans are soliciting campaign funds
to the tune of $8,OOO,OOO to help the
return of good Government. Good
for whon? God forbid the return of
those last days of our former admin
istration, when all over this u. S. A.

were standing in line for blocks, long

We thought at first that the
new fashions would hide the hips,
as they did in the good olds days.
But as it turns out, the exacting
styles reveal not only what you
weigh. but where!
When hips are padded with
adipose tissue, the peplums, bus
ties and tunicS cast suspicion Of
bulk on the silhouette. If you
have any bulges, the styles play
them up.
To streamline the hips, put ex-

Position: Lying flat on back,
arms outstretched in line with
shoulders, legs extended straight

Movement: Raise right leg
straight up in the air to form a

swing the leg across the body and

leg to right angles brings the
muscles of the abdomen into the
action. The other leg is held
straight out on the floor through
out the entire exercise. Do not
bring the fingers down to meet
the toes. Keep the arms in line
with shoulders. Given a chance,
this exercise works wonders with
your figure.
That obtruding bulge on the
side of each hip, revealed in such
clarity by the new silhouette, also
can be smoothly rolled away. Plain
rolling is good-but fancy rolling
is better. Try this:
Position: Lying on back, hands
clasped at the base of the neck.
The knees are flexed, with the feet
slightly off the floor, to concen.
trate the force Of the roll on the
fat pad.
Movement: Holding the bent
knees in this position, with the
feet slightly off the floor, roll over
on your side until Bonded knees
and thigh rest on the floor. Then,
with push of elbows and knees,
roll back to the opposite side. Keep
it up until the bulges protest!
Bulky hips are usually &C
companied by heavily padded
thigh, and here is an exercise
that shapes the thighs while re-
ducing the hips.
Position: Lying flat on the
floor on the back, arms down
at sides. palms on floor, and feet
together straight up in the air.
Movement: Spread the legs
as far apart as possible and then,
in a SciSSor-like movement, cross
one over the other. Swing the
legs out and in as far as pos
sible to affect the muscles of
the thighs. Repeat ten times,
later twenty.
This exercise is equally good
for thighs that are too thin or
thighs that are too fat, since
well-toned muscles give shape
illness to the thighs.
Hips and thighs are NOT i'm
mune to exercise.

levers. AS an example of eff
cient and concentrated food stok-
ing" the campers are world cham
pions. They are permitted to eat
all they want of the wholesome
diet-and they are able to eat and
eat and eat-with Or without the
lucky fork and plate.
Boys Have Cabin
The boys have a cabin all their
own in which they sleep on double
decker cots adorned with toy pis-
tolls and strings of pine cones.
They have an elaborate rock dec
Grafton in the front yard that tells
all comers the camp belongs to
boys and not to girls.
The little girls have their cabin
and the big girls have theirs. They
also go in for exterior decorations
utilizing rocks, pinecones and neat
little excavations.
One of the most popular feature
at camp is the, arts and crafts
division. PlaythingS and useful
articles are made by the children
under the direction of a teacher
The utilization of odds and ends
is revelation in ingenuity. Milk
bottle tops for wheels of tincan
locomotive engines, scraps of bur-
lap sacks converted into art purses,
box ends made into booKendS, yuc-
ca stalks into pin cushions and so
on into bewildering collection of
bric-a-brac to delight the hearts of
their creators. The worst punish
ment possible is an order to stay
away from arts and crafts.
Flag Ceremony
They do many things at camp.
So many that it is impossible to
describe all of them. One of the
most impressive sights consists of
lowering and raising the flag night
and morning. Anyone who can
watch unmoved while the big flag
is carefully lowered into the up
lifted arms of solemn faced little
girls and earnest little boys must
be sadly lacking in patriotism.
The camp was planned original
ly for underprivileged children but
it Immediately became SO popular
that children from all walks OF
life are included among the camp
erS.
After camp closes, all the facil-
tiles must be packed and stored
and the whole place put in ship
shape condition for winter.
Many private citizens make a
weekly contributions to the food
supply of the camp. Every con-
tribution is received with graft
tude and used to the best advan-
tage.
Since all the money provided
for the camp this summer is used,
those in charge will be forced to
begin their annual task of raising
money for next years camp with
small deficit to get out of the
way first. +.
AS an investment in childhood,
the HipasS Health camp deserves
the highest of ratings and the most
wholehearted cooperation.

Farmer-Delegates
To Attend Annual
Meet at Pasadena

Thousands of farmer delegates
to the American Farm Bureau fed

phrase is interpreted, the setting
and conduct of the event will be
unusual.
A hearty endorsement of pre-
liminary plans was received from
Chicago headquarters of the fed

dent of the California Farm Bureau
federation and chairman of the
general convention committee.
Meanwhile, the work of local con-
vention committees has progressed
to a point where the three-day
progra m is taking definite form
under the supervision of c. ".
Castle of the Los Angeles Agricul-
tural Extension Service office.
Convention sessions will be held
in Pasadena's spacious civic audi
torium, and arrangements for dele
gates housing are simplified by
the large number of hotels available
in the Pasadena-Los Angeles area
Information and transportation ia
cilities will be organized for con-
venient and prompt service, and a
hundred picked All club boys and
girls will act as messengers.
High-light of the session will be
the monster barbecue at Brookside
Park, carried out in traditional
California style, with an appropri-
ate Spanish California setting of
costumery and music. A carload
of Santa Barbara county steers is
being fed and fattened for the oc-
casion. Nearly 10000 people are
expected to attend, and the speak
ing program which will follow the
feast will include national leaders
in agriculture.
In addition to the formal pro-
gram of convention activities, tours
to local points of interest are being
arranged, including sightseeing at
Catalina, Mt Lowe, and through
the rich agricultural areas of
southern California. Special af-
fairs of social and industrial in

Without the generous contributions
made by other organizations and
individuals in the valley, it would
be impossible for the Legion to
'ntain the camp and provide
- facilities for the children.

cool mountain air, require 48 quarts

butter each week, and between so

Other food is served in CORES
ponding quantities. If children
are to gain weight and strength,
they must have nourishing food, is
the watchword of the camp lead
ers.
Frequent examinations and care

improvement of the children. One
OF. the boys was 20 pounds under
weight when he arrived at camp
six weeks ago. He was accom-
panied by smaller brother who
was Is pounds underWeight. An
other brother had died of NAL
nutrition a few days before camp
opened. At first the boys were
TOP weak to play and sat lone
somely apart while baseball, mid
pct golf, and tag games went on
about them. The last two weeks

eager to learn the games the other
children played and able to en-
dure the hikes to nearby points of

and bruises suffered in the course
