PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
A. E. GUSTAFSON. County Supt.

Many of our rural amateurs of the
past few years will be interested in
the annual Major Bowes' contest
at Hinckley which will be held this
year early in September. Write to
c. G.. Mann, Hinckley.
The Pine county fair will be held
August Is, 16 and II. Rural school
exhibits will be sorted, assembled and
Judged on August Is and IA. All
rural school exhibits must be sent to
this office on or before Monday, Au-
gust II.
Last week was the third time in
nearly six years that we missed writ
ing and sending our weekly news
column. Over the weekend your
county superintendent contacted GER
tain educators in northern Mime
sofa.
Rural graduates who want picture
of the class should send so cents to
Richardson Gray, Pine City. The pic
lures turned out well.
Concerning State Aids.
We have found very active interest
in the statewide movements to get
state aids paid in full. One superin-
tendent succeeded in getting plank
to this effect in one of the state con-
vention platforms. Another superin-
tendent has reprinted the newspaper
debate recently carried on by Hon.
Hjalmar Petersen and Hon. A. j.
Rockne, regarding this state school
aids issue. Hjalmar Petersen's arti-
cle's support the state aid program
that most of us feel we must have
and are working for. 1t is difficult
to show the few leaders of the old
school Of thought (like Mr.. Rockne)
that state school aids can and should
be paid in full and that our net in
come tax incomes have made this
possible if used as were originally in
enthusiastically and directly to
schools. Now is the season to put
candidates on the spot, regardless of
party.
T. c. Engum and others in the state
department are boosting this as the
number one way out. There are three
other proposed plans, but none OF
them will serve the needs of Pine
county and most counties in the north
half of the state as well as our num-
Der one plan that we have been boost
ing.
Thanks to Hjalmar Petersen and
other leaders, we have much good
support. Instead of losing our net
income tax aids entirely, as was once
proposed, we now hope to have direct
use of the net income tax surplus to
pay general aids in full. It is still
a long fight and everyone should get
back of us in this.

EFFECT OF BREATHING ON
 CIRCULATION

Many individuals with or without heart disease have poor circulation because they do not know how to breathe naturally. Natural breathing aids the circulation. Natural breath ing is belly breathing, and mean belly. You can't breathe with the abdomen, for the abdomen is a cavi- ty. You can breathe with the belly, for the belly is the muscular, elastic front wall of the abdomen. Of course the chief breathing muscle is the diaphragm, but most laymen are absurdly mistaken as to what and where the diaphragm is and how it works. Too often even laymen who have had common school educa- tion derive their cratic knowledge of the diaphragm from the assump- tions of dressmakers, corset filters, masSeurs and athletic coaches. In my files are the official directions of various physical trainers, swim ming teachers, singing teachers and self-qualified "health" instruc- tors which show that these tex perts" themselves are sadly con- fused about the vital function oi breathing.
 All I can do, suppose, is to re- mind readers that the diaphragm is 8 thin membranous muscle in the form of an inverted soup plate stretched across the body cavity like a tarpaulin, partitioning the upper portion of the cavity or chest from the lower portion or abdomen 1 When the diaphragm contracts t

 BROCK

Lounging lady. working girl here's style that will adapt itself to any mood. For Pattern 230 is a Claire Tilden creation that makes either a housecoat or fresh, pretty frock. Its beautifully fitting lines are blouSed through the waist and sleek and slim through the hips, with an "upped" front waist-seam that gives graceful effect. There's gathered softness just below the shoulder yokes and @ small youth full collar that may match or con- trast. Two front panels widen the skirt; the sash may tie in front or in back. Choose between long and short sleeves, and use either ruff fling or gay ric-rac edging for trim. You may seam up the center front if you like, though a zipper is smart, convenient and comfortable, espe- cially for the housecoat. Select a soft crepe, a luminous satin or 8 rustling taffeta for the long style; a cheery cotton print for the dress. And do make both Styles-you'u find them becoming.
