AS the days glide by and we read
of the doings of kings and widows,
we are brought to realize that the
folks who draw the big salary for
penciling their ideas, are not the
only ones with opportunities-and
widows and bachelors. While our
bachelor never ruled a kingdom and
the widow never got writeup for
her part in a divorce action, they
occupy places in their community

and all the attributes
that make for citizenship, and that

and keep you feeling young.
The circulation slows up so
gradually that one is unconscious
Of the changes that are taking
place. You slow up, get a little
bit lazy, and become addicted to
big easy chairs and solid comfort.
The first thing you know the old
rocking chair has got you-and
you'd rather sit around than get
around.
Take a tip from that comfort
loving creature, the cac, and
stretch to get the kinks out Of
your muscles and circulation.
Tabby spends a good part Of her
nine lives curled up in some cUshy
spot by the fire, but her sVelte
lines and stretching technique are
something to admire - and to
copy.
Start your day with a stretch,
and getting up will be pleaSanter.
Before you drive yourself out Of
bed in the morning, take a good
long stretch from head to heels.
Fling your arms straight up over
head and let the lower part Of
your body lie still while you turn
over to first one side and then
the other, with the upper part.
Lie flat on your back again
and tense the abdominal muscles,
drawing them up and in. Relax,
flex the knees and lift the but
tocks off the bed until the body
is in a straight line from the
knees to chest. This is a gentle
way of forcing the blood into
those lazy muScleS-and, inciden-
tally, Of waking yourself up pleas
antly.
Now that you're in the mood,
hop out Of bed and take your
stretching laterally. Here is a
good, thorough stretch for you:
Fling one arm high over head
and at the same time step back
with the corresponding foot.

MACK DRAFTS
ADDRESS

ELPHIA, June rs
G.N.SO-Shunning the noise and
confusion OF the convention hall
and hotel corridors, former New
York Supreme Court Justice John
E. Mack, Of Poughkeepsie, today
applied the finishing touches to
the speech with which he will
nominate President Roosevelt for
O second term tomorrow.
Judge Mack, who launched
Roosevelt on his political career
more than IS years ago and nomi'
mated him for President In 1892,
came directly from Washington,
where he spent several hours at
the White House.
Many Democrats here could ap-
ply a better oratorical touch to
the Roosevelt nominating speech
than the benevolent looking Mack,
who affects black string tie and
resembles a typical country law
yer, but personal friendship led to
his selection again by the Presi-
dent.
Few Of the delegates are aware
that the PoughkeepSie juriSt has
arrived. He called on few old
friends and then retired to his
hotel suite to give his speech a
final study before turning it over
to the mimeographerS for distribu-
ton to the press.

RANKIN FEARS
TW0-THIRDS
RULESEND
BY JOHN E. RANKIN
Member of Congress from
MiSSiRSinni

PHILADELPHIA, June 25
U.N.SO Many people do not, ]
am afraid, recognize the underly'
ing principles which have made
the fight against abrogation of
the two-thirds rule real fight in
the Democratic convention.
The South is not fighting for
itself alone. 1t is fighting for a
principle, for the entire party and
or the entire nation.
Abrogation of the rule without
q substitute will, in my opinion,
cause a chaotic condition that
would be very embarrassing in
deed to the Democratic party In
the future.
Simple abrogation would mean
that it would be entirely possible
for a candidate to be nominated
for President and carry every
State that voted for him in the
convention and then lose the elec-
tion by a greater majority of elec.
toral votes than Woodrow Wilson
was elected by in 1915, since there
would be large number OF votes
from territorial possessions in the
convention that would have no
vote in the general election.
A sane substitute should be
adopted If the two-thirds rule is
Abrogated. The most reasonable
one would be to base representa-
ton In the convention upon the
ratio of Democratic votes to Re,
publican or opposition votes cast
in q State at the preceding, or
the two preceding, presidential
elections.
Otherwise, the Republican
States, or States that never go
Democratic, might be able to con-
troll future Democratic conven-
tions.
There are many reasons why
the two-thirds rule should not be
Ahrogated. It has served the
Nation and the party well. But If
it is repealed, there Is impera-
tive necessity for changing dele
gate representation in the conven-
ton which nominates presidential
candidates.
