PHYSICAL EDUCATION
MUCH NEEDED FACTOR.
(By The Associated Press.)
Chicago, Dec. 9.—Fifty per cent of
the 25,000,000 boys and girls of school
age have physical defects that im
pede normal development, Willard S.
Small, School Hygiene specialist of
the federal Bureau of Eucation, said
in an address today beefore the Amer
ican Public Hgalth Association.
After declaring that the nation’s
need of “physical education” is im
perative, the speaker pointed out
that 2,500,000 men in the first draft
[says hot water 1
i WASHES POISONS
FROM THE LIVER
I Everyone should drink hot water j
with phosphate in it,
before breakfast.
To feel as fine as the proverbial
fiddle, we must keep the liver washed
clean, almost every morning, to pre
vent its sponge-like pores from clog
ging with indigestible material, sour
bile and poisonous toxins, says a noted
physician,
-Jf you get headaches, it’s your liver.
If you catch cold easily, it’s your liver.
, If you wake up with a bad taste, furred
tongue, nasty breath or stomach be
comes rancid, it’s your liver. Sallow
skin, muddy complexion, watery eyes
all denote liver uncleanliness. Your
liver is the most important, also the
must abused and neglected organ of
the body. Few know its function or
how to release the dammed-up body
waste, bile and toxins. Most folks
resort to violent calomel, which is a
dangerous, salivating chemical which
can- only be used occasionally because
it accumulates in the tissues, also
attacks the bones.
Every man and woman, sick or
well, should drink each morning be
fore breakfast a glass of hot water
writh a teaspoonful of limestone phos
phate in it, to wash from the liver and
bowels the previous day’s indigestible
material, tha poisons, sour bile and
toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
Limestone phosphate does not re
strict the diet like calomel, because it
can not salivate, for it is harmless and
you can eat anything afterwards. It
is inexpensive and almost tasteless, and
any pharmacist will sell you a quarter
pound, which is sufficient for a dem
onstration of how hot water and lime
stone phosphate cleans, stimulates and
freshens the liver, keeping you feeling
fit day in and day out.

were disqualified for active military
service because of ^phyical defects,
and added:
“Being unfit for military service,
they were therefore unfit to render
full service in any capacity. They
were unable to get full returns from
life in work and happiness.”
The physical education needed must
assume physical activity as the basic
thing, the speaker added. There must
be wholesale physical environment,
individual physical examination and
record, and medical supervision of
schools.
“It should provide for all persons
between six and eighteen years of |
age. It should extend its benefits to
youth above the compulsory school
age. It should provide federal aid to
permit states to carry on effective
systems of physical education. This
federal aid should be limited to pre
paration of teachers for skilled ser
vice.
“The program proposed will raise
the positive co-efficient of the physi
cal life of the nation. It will build
morality upon the solid foundation of
physical soundness and vitality. It
will be a powerful influence in Amer
icanization.”
SUNG STAR SPANGLED BANNER.
London, Nov. 13.—(Correspondence
of The Associated Press.)—A German
band at a prison hospital near Lon
don played the Star Spangled Banner
and several hundred wounded soldiers
sang it as if they enjoyed it in cele
bration of the signing of the armis
tice. The music was in honor of a
parade of American wounded quai-;
tered ifn a hospital near the prison
hospital.
If the sentiment of these prisoners
may be taken as a criterion the Ger
man people will harbor no old scores
against Americans for helping to de
liver the final blow of the war. They
entered heartily into the armistice
celebration and were glad the war had
ended.
Soon after the news of the signing
of the armistice was' received at the
big American hospital at Dartford
it was sent over to the Germans,
whose prison hospital joins the
American establishment.
On the following day every Ameri
can able to walk was mustered into
a parade the route of which took
them through the prison grounds. As
the vanguard entered the German
band—Germans always manage to
scrape up a band wherever a large
number of them are quartered—be
gan playing the anthem of the U. S. j
A. and the- Germans sang it as the
happy Americans passed. They were
happy too and showed no animosity
toward the Americans.
RECEIVED BETTER TREATMENT.
(By The Associated Press.)
Paris, Nov. 9.—The condition of
American war prisoners in German
prison camps was' to some extent
ameliorated by the work of Conrad
Hoffman an American Y. M. C. A.
worker who was permitted to remain j
in Berlin after most other Americans
either had left or had been interned.
Hoffman convinced the German
government that the more he was al
lowed to do for the American pris
oners in Germany the better would
fare German prisoners in American ;
lands. He was allowed to employ
Tneutrals as his assistants on his pro
mise that members of his organiza
tion would not act as spies or propa
gandists, but solely to improve the
physical and mental welfare of the
prisoners.
Largely through Hoffman’s efforts
it is now stated, prisoner’s help com
mittees were organized in all prison
camps in Germany containing Amer- j
icans and their needs were communi
cated to Mr. Hoffman who forward
ed them to A. C. Harte, international
Y. M. C. A. secretary in Berne,
Switzerland.
Both the Red Cross and the Y. M.
C. A. cooperated in supplying the
prisoners with food, clothing, money
and other necessaries, operating
through that channel. Many letters

WORK OF NAVY.
(By The Associated Press.)
Washington, Nov. 9.—Some idea o'
the great work confronting the navy
when the United States entered the
war is set forth in the annual re
port of Rear Admiral Earle, chief of
ordnance, made public today. To thi«
bureau alone fell the task of expend
ing during a single year more than
half a billion dollars for guns and
equipment.
In discussing seemingly impossible
problems, Admiral Earle disclosed
that the navy was called upon not on
ly to arm all American war craft, j
auxiliaries and the merchant fleet,
I

11 r.
but to provide armament for British, j.
French, Italian, Belgian and Russian1
shipping. Guns of 3 to 5 inch caliber
were at a premium and the demand
for them was ten times greater than
the existing capacity for manufac
tur. A total of 937 craft of all kinds,
not in the regular navy, were armed
between July 1, 1917 and July 1, 1918.
Gun mounts formed a seperate
knotty problem. The facilities creat
ed for their manufacture met all
urgent needs. The Linderman Steel
and Machine company of Muskegon,
Mich., the report stated, delivered 3G0
mounts for 4-inch guns 28 days
aheftjd of schedule and established a
record for other manufacturers.
Only brief reference was made to
two of the most striking accomplish
ments of the bureau, the designing,
building and shipping of the 14—inch
rifles on railway mounts which ef-!
fectually hammered the German rear j
positions in the closing weeks of the
war, and the development of a tract- j
or mount for rifles up to 7-inch cal- j
iber from which the guns could be!
fired. This latter achievement, never
’ I
attained by the allied armies, the re- j
port said, was hailed in France with
even greater satisfaction than was i
the arrival of the first of the 14
inch monsters comprising the naval
batteries.
^Failure to obtain a sufficient sup
ply of depth bombs used by American
destroyers, hampered efficient op
perations against enemy submarines.
By strenuous efforts, however, the
shortage was overcome and before
war ended, American destroyers were
using depth bombs freely, and this
the report said, aided in curbing Ger
man submarine operations in the
closing months of the war.
The fire control equipment used on
American war craft is on a par with
that in any navy, Admiral Earle said,
and range finding and sighting de
vices of the fleet have been greatly
improved.
“The efficiency of our gunnery as
sisted by these new instruments,” he
added, “should find our ships in the
next sea battle at least equal in gun
nery to any enemy.”
The first of the 16-inch, 50-Calibc-r
main battery rifles for new dread
naughts has been tried out, with a
success that exceeded expectations,
fixing this monster of naval warfare
as “an exceptionally splendid piece of
ordnance.” Another new naval wea
pon, an 8-inch bomb-throwing how
itzer, is being delivered to destroyers
or larger craft.
