M'MURTRIE FAVORED IN TREASURER'S RAGE

INDIANAPOLIS, April 3. Uz McMurtrie of Grant county is the best

bet for the Republican nomination of treasurer of state, according to the vanguard of Republicans already gathered here for the state convention to be held Wednesday and Thursday. McMurtrie, young and capable, is con sidered by many to be the logical man to pit against George A. Bittler, a young man who is the present treasurer of state, and who is to be renominated' by the Democrats. McMurtrie and Bittler are about the same age, being in their thirties, and both are aggressive campaigners. Mc-

SOUTH SIDERS VOTE ON TRACTION SUBSIDY

Indications today were that the South Side Improvement association at its meeting tomorrow night would vote against the proposed 100,000 subsidy for a traction line north. The only inducement that might change this vote, it seemed today, would be

addition to the administration building of the association would be voted on.

WOMEN EXERCISE TOO LITTLE, SHE SAYS

Society women who, like birds, fly oath with the first winter chill and

r.orth to escape the summer heat, are j

soundly condemned by Miss Susanna Cocroft, the Chicago author and health expert. Summer and winter resorts weaken the American woman, she declares. "If women would take up outdoor sports that would keep' them happy and vigorous in the climate to which they are born." she says, "and not run away from the least bit of discomfort to a warmer climate, they net only would be happier themszlves, but they would create in themselves the power to make others hajmier. "It is in overcoming discomforts that we grow stronger. The conquest a woman makes in drawing- in a ci aught of, deep cool air, with the circulation she starts by exercising in the cold -open air, is one of the greatest benent3 of ice skating for example. Ice skating has thi3 advantage; it brings the woman out into the open and, exercising, she is bound to take more oxygen into her system, which releases the waste out among the tissues. Then, deeper

breathing helps her to throw thia waste from the system. "The masses of women take too little real, wholesome enjoyment. ' A few of our women play golf and the better circulation and their better viewpoint of life is shown in rosy cheeks and vibrant nerves.' They are alert and ready to do, but I am speaking of the middle-class. They, somehow, seem to feel that they are wasting time in taking exercise. Tkey will sit and sew by the hour on fancy work and consider themselves virtuous while they are straining their eyes, straining their nerves, sitting in the house, missing the sunshine, missing the fresh air, and missing tho mental poise which comes from getting away from one's work and viewing it from tiJt outside."
