A house organ argues that printers I must give up their old presses and get new machinery if they wish to possess any advantage over their competitors. It illustrates the point thus:

George Bernard Shaw says somewhere that when you give a certain degree of education to everybody, it ceases to be education at all. A man who knows what everybody else knows is an uneducated man, the educated man being one who knows what other people do not know. This is true in the sense that knowledge or skill which is in the possession of every one has no market value.

What is true of human skill and accomplishments is also true of ma

chinery.

An illustration of the gallantry of the native African comes from a British hunter who writes to "Country Life:"

"Now here is a curious thing about Africans. If one acquires, say, a lot of meat, he tries to get it into the charge of his wives as soon as possible. While he remains in possession everybody cadges from him: friends, relations, everybody of similar age, the merest acquaintances, all seem to think that he should share the meat with them. Bu once the meat is handed over to his wife it is secure. Whenever any one asks for some, he refers them to his wife. That ends it, for nobody will cadge from a woman."

"Collier's" lately asked its readers to name the man in American life who most aptly fitted this description in "Hudibras:"

He could distinguish and divide
A hair 'twixt south and southwest
side, etc.

Two of the lines of this famous quota-
tion were seized most aptly by one
reader to characterize William J. Bryan
"His latest outburst against Darwinism,
says this reader, "is rather interesting
since

He'd undertake to prove by force
Of argument a man's no horse."

Famous Yale Coach shows How to Keep Fit in Ten Minutes' Fun a Day-
His "Daily Dozen" Exercises Now Set to Music on Phonograph Records

[graphic]

T

HOUSANDS of men and women-once flabby-muscled, low in endurance, easily fatigued by ordinary mental or physical exertion are to-day facing their daily work with new ability and new energy. They are no Their bodies have been relonger nervous. built; their endurance has been strengthened; their minds are clearer-all through ten minutes' fun a day.

To-day, "that tired feeling" is something practically unknown to them, for they have built up a new supply of life. They have increased their efficiency, they eat better, sleep better, feel better, and have found a new pleasure in living.

These people owe their improved health to the fact that they devoted a short time each day to a new scientific system of physical development. And the remarkable part of it all is that while they were thus building up their bodies-they exulted in the exercise. It was not drudgery, it was fun!

This remarkable system of body building was devised by Walter Camp, the famous Yale football coach. People who have used it say they think it is the best method they have found of keeping fit. According to physical culture experts who have studied it, this new method will often accomplish in just ten minutes more actual good than a half hour spent in strenuous gymnasium exercise.

Mr. Camp has embodied the complete system in twelve simple movements which are known as the "Daily Dozen."

The "Daily Dozen" were first used as a much needed substitute for the tiresome setting-up drills used in training camps during the war. Their immense value was quickly apparent and before long members of the Cabinet as well as other prominent men were relying on them as a guard against physical breakdown due to overwork.

Walter Camp,

Dozen" is because they are based on natural
methods of body-development. Take the tiger
in the zoo. He is caged in, removed from his
natural way of living-just as we, through the
centuries, have grown away from our natural
way of living. Yet the tiger keeps himself in
perfect physical condition-always. How?-by
constantly stretching and turning and twisting
the trunk or body muscles. And that is where
Mr. Camp says we must look after ourselves!
It is on just this principle that he has based
his "Daily Dozen."

And
For

Since the war, the "Daily Dozen" have been making thousands of busy men and women fit and keeping them so. now the exercises are proving more efficient than ever. a wonderful improvement has been effected in the system. Here it is:

With Mr. Camp's special permission, the "Daily Dozen" exercises have been set to music on phonograph records that can be played on any disc machine.

A chart is furnished for each exercise-showing by actual photographs the exact movements to make for every one of the "commands"-which are given by a clear voice speaking on the record. The most inspiring music for each movement has been adopted. A fine, rousing tune, such as the great Sousa melody, "The Stars and Stripes Forever," has a wonderful effect. It is elating; and it adds spirit to an activity that was monotonous before this invention.

Another reason for the wonderful effectiveness of the "Daily
