Mailman 22 Years Tells How to Walk in Comfort
' By ARTHUR WRIGHT
Large . scale walking will become a necessity. in Indianapolis. when gasoline rationing becomes - nationwide. Maybe you motorists who have jamped into the family car to get a! pack of cigarets at the store around | the corner feel it’s going to be a | “tough” ‘assignment. | But Indianapolis workers walk| many miles each day—rain, sleet or snoy—because their jobs demand it. One of them is Paul Waggoner, who has. been in the postal. service 22 years. ‘The last 14 years he has been “hiking” daily (except: Sunday and holidays) ‘on the ‘route known |as district 241, It includes Arizona st. to. Wilkins and, extends’ from Meridian to White river. He walks—on an .average day— 15% miles. : Don't “pooh! pooh!” the figures, for we attached an officially tested pedometer to Mr. Waggoner and it recorded every step he walked on that, “average day.” “I didn’t realize it was such a

the central post office: he carried 35 pounds of letters, magazines and “junk.” : (iday. That wasn’t-all of the load, for he refills at three pickup points. He says mail routes average from 170 to 200 pounds some days.
Keep a Steady Gait All this despite the fact that he’s one of the shortest-legged carriers in the service here. But he’s “long” on. advice to prospective walkers: “Maintain a steady gait—not too fast—and you'll walk farther without becoming tired.” Mr. Waggoner, who is 42 and has lived long enough "in the -postal service to be “in the know,” warns walkers to wear shoes that fit. He says that because of this policy he stands today without corns or
‘bunions. And he wears out at least
two pairs of shoes a year. When it gets cold this winter and you have the urge to remain at home from your job. because “no one could walk in this kind of weather” remember Mr, Waggoner's “worst” morning.
His Christmas in January
He delivered mail in 1930 when the temperature was down to 18 below zero, And’ one Christmas eve he waded in slush above his ankles. ' Regarding Christmas, Mr. Waggoner says the mailman enjoys a Merry Christmas—in the middle of January, when the rush is over. Hs said mailmen are in the post office sorting ail for their routes at 3 o’clock in the morning during the height of yule mailing. But there's a “thrill” to being a letter carrier these days. “When we see the smile on the face of a mother as we deliver a letter from her boy in service . we don't care how many steps we climb or how many milds we walk!”

MARY BAKER EDDY'S
[WORK IS APPLAUDE
Judge Samuel W. Greene, C.S.B,,.
of Chicago, spoke last night at the Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist, on “Christian Science: The Religion of Authority.” . Discussing. Mary Baker Eddy’s book, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” Judge Greene said, “The textbook has become of world-wide reputation, and is read and honored by many outside the ranks of Christian Science. )f practical, interest is the fact that in the egrly history of the textbook it was extensively -criticized and condemned, whereas in its more abundant circulation and its richer fruitage it is but rarely cdndemned today in the public press or even in'the church pulpits. . . . “The ‘reading of this book will surely bless anyone's effort, whether or not he be interested in Christian Science for it will undoubtedly arouse his thought to a more earnest consideration of the verities of being.”
