Another Halloween was history to- day, and costumes that ranged from the beautiful to the weird were hid- den away for another year. Though Saturday nights merrymaking was continued through last night m many parts of the city, police re-. ported that no serious damage had been done and that in general the members of the gay throng which swarmed about the streets of the city Saturday night had behaved itself admirably well.
 MasQuerades, dances and parties were held in halls and private homes about the city. Thousands of youngsters "dressed up" and toured their own neighborhoods and the downtown area, and made the cus- tomary visits to the neighbors for the almost inevitable gifts of candy or fruit.
 Few Complaints
 Tn general Halloween was the quietcst the city has seen in several years. There were scattering com- plaints of property damage and sev- eral arrests were made. but there were no serious offenses. There were two Halloween fires. Jack o'lantern caused Q minor blaze ct the home of Irving Robinson, 45 Walnut street, early Saturday night. Later firemen were called to qucll @ bon- fire started by children at Ram dolph and Euclid avenues.
 The annual Burns Club party was held Saturday night at For esters hall. The Concordia Singing Socicty's Halloween party was at the society,s hall, while the Canado- Americana Society held Q party at Canado hall, Bank street.

Increase Your Strength
To Overcome 7iyedness
By DR.. Frank Mccoy

IF YOU are one of those people
who are tired all the time, it is
good plan to ask yourself what
made you tired. Certainly. you
were not born tired - you were
meant to have and enjoy an abun-
dance of strength and energy
When you are all tired out -
find out what is causing that un-
natural condition.
have seen many patients who
were so tired that they wanted
to rest most of the time The rest
cure by itself usually leads only
to greater weakness. While suffi-
cient rest is of value, it must be
balanced by periods of activity.
1t is almost impossible to over
come chronic tiredness by rest
alone and far better results are
obtained when you follow this
rule: Increase your strength by
using it. Your strength largely
depends upon your muscles and
those muscles are going to grow
stronger only by use. Activity is

strengthening. whereas rest alone
is weakening.
Therefore, for the person who
is always tired and who has been
told that the vital organs are
sound, l prescribe exercise. The
best plan is to take regular physi-
cal culture exercises and to set
aside some time each day for
walking. The exercises are to be
done slowly and at first do each
one only once or twice, increasing
the number of times each exer-
else is performed as your strength
increases. Follow the same plan
with walking. At first walk 15
minutes day and then gradu-
ally keep walking l minute long
er each day until you can cover
4 miles and come in feeling
rested.
Among the symptoms of the
tired person must be included the
following: a feeling of fatigue,
leading the patient to say he feels
"all played OUT; trembling or
weakness of the legs; headache;
poor appetite; bad breath; and
dark circles under the eyes.
TIREDNESS is one of the first
symptoms induced when the
patient has built up a condition
of self-poisoning. Therefore. at
the start of the treatment to over
come it, l advise a fast to de-
toxicate the body, thus removing
the underlying toxic condition
That word toxic means poison"
and a systemic toxemia is the
result when the body is poisoned
by materials which are not elm
mated fast enough. The ordinary
causes of such a toxemia are:
over-eating; constipation; lack of
exercise; and waste of nervous
energy through late hours, lack
of sleep, eyestrain, or worry.
Another contributing cause of
a tired feeling is work which you
dislike or which is boring to you.
Therefore, an important part of
the curative treatment for tired
people is the building up of some
interest. Find a hobby of some
kind to which you look forward
with eagerness and you will be
surprised at the magical way in
which your tiredness will vanish.
In permanently relieving tired
ness, here is what you must do:
fast at first and then eat wisely;
exercise, get enough sleep and
take a short rest period after
lunch if possible; give yourself
some good suggestions: and build
up an interest in life.
l have two articles which
should help you in your effort to
replace continual tiredness with a
feeling of strength, and l suggest
you send for them. Write to me
in care of 1851 West Sixth ST., in
Los Angeles, enclose a large, self
add 'essed, stamped envelope and

CRUISE ENDS
WITHCAPTAIN
NEARDEATH
BY w. r. McCREADIE

SUVA, Fiji Islands, July 90
G.N.S0.-A voyage of adventure
and exploration almost became
one Of tragedy for Capt. Ray
Kaufman of the ketch yacht
Hurricane, recovering here today
from q foot infection suffered
while cruising among the coral
islands of the South Seas.
SleepleSs days and nights Of
fast sailing, taking advantage of
every wind, by Kauffman's COM
panions, saved his life. His foot
became infected from a tiny coral
fragment of Futuna Island. At
sea, it began to throb and swell.
The nearest physician was at
Suva.
They arrived here late at night
and the American adventurer was
rushed to a hospital, where doc
tors said a few hours additional
delay might have resulted in the
loss Of his life.
Tells Of Hardship
Recuperating here, Kaufman
told of an adventure packed voyage
in the 45-foot ketch, from the
keys of the West Indies to the
mysterious Galapagos Islands and
finally to the South Seas.
When Captain Kauffma ms
schooner was wrecked in q West
Indian storm, and he narrowly
escaped with his life, he and a
companion, Gerry Mefferd, built
the ketch out Of Mississippi pine
and facetiouSly named it "Hurri-
cane"
They were joined by Abe Allen
Of Indianapolis, who was collect
ing rare snakes for the University
of Michigan. The first spot on
their adventure cruise was Cozu-
mel Island, off Yucatan, where, in
their hunt for snakes, they dis
covered an ancient circular ruin
Of the socalled Middle Period"
in q dense jungle. A Carnegie In
Stitute expedition, in a recent re-
port, said that no circular bases
Of prehistoric ruins were found on
the island.
Arrested as Smugglers
Sailing on to British Honduras,
they were arrested at BluefieldS
where the governor suspected
them Of being smugglerS.
Kaufman related:
"He couldn't imagine young
men cruising for the mere love
Of it. A cable to Washington
Strengthened us out"
Allen left the expedition in Hon
duraS, Kaufman and Mefferd
sailed through the Panama Canal
and headed for the Galapagos
group.
On Floreana Island, scene in
1884 of a mysterious tragedy in
the Tropical Eden" of the exotic
Baroness Eloise de Wagner Weir
born, which resulted in the death
of three men and the disappear
ance Of the baroness and her con-
sort, they visited Arthur Wittmer,
Self-exiled German philosopher,
and his wife and two sons.
Kaufman said:
I'VE found them living on .
rock 1000 feet above the sea.
They have to live there because
no fresh water is found at the
lower attitudes"
