Round Shoulders

UNLESS ILL health is pres
ent, there is no excuse for
rounded shoulders.
All exercises that pull hard
on the muscles of the upper
portion of the back are helpful.
Stand tall, stretch the arms as
high as you can, swing the hands
forward and back.
Stand tall, hands on hips,
lift and lower the shoulders.
This movement will give ease to
the fiberS of the upper portion
Of the body.

Synthetic Rubber

The synthetic rubber industry
Will require at the rate of 10O,-
100000 pounds of industrial tai
low soap a year TO make the
tires and other equipment
needed by our armed forces.
Aside from tires for our
tanks, trucks and planes, syn

pounds Of synthetic rubber, and

also used extensively in the tex

different Uses of waste fats has
been brought out. Included
among these are the following:
Fats and oils will be needed

OF the many vital products
derived from used fats, glyce-
rim is of paramount Importance
because we must have glycerin
to make gunpowder and certain
other explosives, and because
glycerin is used extensively in
the preparation of medicines.

Suggest Inquiry

Some organization, or group,
should undertake an inquiry into
the nature of the services rem
dered by the city OF Detroit so
that information may be given
that will enable the people to de-
eide whether or not they went

the Michigan survey told members
of the brokers division of the De-
troit Real Estate Board at a noon
meeting last week.
THE city renders 500 serv-
Ices" he said, "sOme OF them
dating back to 1908. IL would
take time TO investigate all Of
these. but certainly a start could
be made"
Steffens said that in the state
government. where appropriations
have just been made greatly eX-
ceeding anticipated revenues for
the period. some effort should be
made 10 decide upon standard of
living for the state which would
form the basis for the appropria-

IN the Far East which she has per-
formed in Europe. namely, to win
the war for us"
Well, 1t is always salutary to know
where one stands. And, so far as
Mr.. Browder is concerned, our rela-
tions with the Soviet Union are an
emphatically jug-handled arrange
ment, with Moscow holding the han
die, getting everything and giving
nothing in return. OF course, Mr..
Browder does not officially speak for
Moscow. He is the head of the Com
munist party in the United States,
which is technically an independent
organization. But neither Mr.. Brow
der nor his party comrades ever say
or do anything which they deem
displeasing to the Soviet Union, and
they strive faithfully to echo the
Soviet viewpoint and serve Soviet
interests. Hence, Mr.. BroWder's re-
marks deserve notice and careful
consideration.

Ether Waves

A broadcasting studio is said to
be conducting far-reaching expert
ments in new type of ether wave,
where the ether acts not only as
carrying medium but also as an
anesthetic. A psychologist is said
to be in charge of said experiment,
and it is supposedly alleged that
hypothetical waves of hypnotism are
theoretically sent out to potential
auditors, which may mesmerize
them into possible total relaxation.
1t is herewith admitted-frankly ad-
mitted and not merely alleged-that
the account is vague and of a nature
to cause the average city editor, who
wants facts, facts and more facts,
to tear out in anguish what few re-
naming hairs cub reporters have
left him. Yet nothing can be done
about it, the only reporter sent to
cover the story became so hypnotized
that after tottering back to the city
desk, that was the best report she
could turn in.
Yet, paradoxically, it would seem
that the very vagueness of detail on
the experiment is guarantee of
its success. Here, at last, is a relaxa-
ton program de luxe, one that will
sleep the Nation, provided of course,
that one obvious drawback can be
overcome. The studio will have to
use quite a bit of hypnotism to get
any one to sponsor it, and take the
risk that by the time the commercial
is given, the entire radio audience
will be sound asleep.

Protests Trea atment Of
Gallinger Hospital.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Again there is a welter of criticism
and fault-f1nding in reference to the
administration of Gallinger Municipal
Hospital
This observer is convinced that these
complaints are without substantial
foundation and that they are harmful.
This metropolitan community, by
every consideration of its needs and of
fair dealing, is fortunate in having a
man of scholarly attainments, executive
ability and thoroughgoing integrity like
DR.. Edgar Bocock, as the administrative
head of this highly complex and diff
cult enterprise.
1t should be an easy matter among
men of good will to spike these perennial
rumors and scurvylike meannesses at
their irresponsible sources.
Surely there is somebody somewhere
who is charged with the responsibility
of providing Gallinger with all needs
commensurate with the multiplied serv-
ices 1t is expected to render. Let these
responsibilities be discharged without
stint. DR.. Bococks presence at CALM
ger is guarantee of maximum returns.
1t is not within the scope of his train
ing and nature to do otherwise

Postwar Employment

In his discussion of postwar read
justment in the National Radio
Forum Wednesday night Senator
Thomas of Utah said something the
American people cannot afford to
forget
"If we do not plan," he declared,
Hardship will follow. Injury will be
done to millions of our men and
women and their families" There
is no getting around that. The evils
of the failure to prepare for the
transition to peace were illustrated
by the idleness and suffering that
followed the end of the First World
War, and the country does not want
a repetition of those conditions, al
though the search for remedy poses
task Of far more staggering proper
tions than would have been involved
then. Instead of 100000 men re-
turning to civilian life, there will be
perhaps 100000 men and women
for whom to find places. Added to
these will be the other millions, now
engaged in war occupations, who will
be seeking work, situation that had
no counterpart twenty-five years ago.
Senator Thomas confined his dis
cussion to the problem of getting the
service people back into peacetime
pursuits, which properly is the first
consideration of the Nation, and
urged public works program that
could be used to ease the pinch in the
event of widespread unemployment

economy. This perhaps would be a
wise pfecauton, but solely as an

EAST FALLS CHURCH.

Dear Sir.
'The recent period of cool weather
has helped me to find the answer to
the question concerning my inability to
fall asleep Immediately upon retiring at
the regular hour, thus robbing me of
the six hours continuous sleep, since I
agree with the great George Washing
ton that six hours sleep is suficient for
the adult person.
After several years trial of the habit
of retiring shortly before midnight, I
find it is hard to break the habit by
actually falling to sleep at an earlier
hour, although 1 have tried to compro-
mise myself on the earlier period.
Il tried a glass of milk, once or twice,
other sleep producing beverages, and
finally an aspirin, although I refuse to
continue the latter for fear 1t would be-
come habit-forming and thus lose its
real value as a medicine
Il am one of those fortunate Cor un-
fortunate) people who lives in a most
refreshing environment in the midst Of
tall pines. which proves to me too ex-
hilarating to induce sound sleep-in fact,
it is just as easy to be wide awake at
midnight as at noon.
1T occurred to me that q certain
amount of physical exercise was neces-
sary to furnish the fatigue desired and
thus afford the condition which would
promote sound sleep
THE unfinished business Of last fall
of saving and splitting the fallen tim
bers which have been lying around since
the snowfall of spring, 1912, furnished
me with the desired exercise, and when
ever insomnia again threatens, I shall
leave my desk a little early and afford
myself at least two hours of this whole
some exercise. This is my favorite out
door sport.
Sincerely yours, o. E. c."
The ways of wooing sleep are many.
There is, or was, store in New York
which specialized on devices to help in
putting one to sleep. There were sounds
and sights. little masks to go over the
eyes, pellets of soft wax and cotton to
be put in the ears, and many more.
Inere was also young clerk IN charge
who had made a study of the subject.
In few deft minutes this clerk could
suggest more ways of going to sleep than
any one else had ever heard Of; he knew
all the psychology OF the subject and
the various ways of counting sheep, etc.
There were phonograph records to be
played, although We have never found
out just who or what was to turn the
thing off
Most persons have discoverd for them
selves that often bite to eat at bedtime
will aid one in going to sleep. This is
purely physiological. drawing the blood
away from the brain centers to the
stomach.
Aspirin is, no doubt, the least harmful
