Little Lights on LIVING ■ SB By MARIA LEONARD Dean of Women, University of Illinois • Western Newspaper Union.

A MODERN DUODECIMO OF HEALTH ■■ ■ • ■ OF EVERY 100 persons that are now alive, 36 will die from preventable diseases before they reach sixty-five years of If you want to be one of who reaches the age of sfjtjme, follow these rules, part of which are Dr. Thomas D. Woods* creed of keeping fit: L Eat less, chew more. 2. Smoke less, breathe more. 3. Ride less, walk more. 4. Bundle less, bathe more. 5. Worry less, work more. 6. Hurry less, read more. 7. Idle less, play more. & Talk less, think more. 9. Go less, sleep more. 10. Waste less, give more. 11. Scold less, laugh more. 12. Preach less, practice more. Scold less and rnugh more, for there are far too few "morning faces” seen today in our thoroughfares, Instead there is a worried, tired look as though people had forgotten how to smile. The depression has taken much cheer out of the world. Stocks and bonds can go, but the radiance must not go from our every day living! Let us not forget the healthful exercise of laughter. Some one has said it takes fewer muscles to smile than frown. This radiance should not pass with childhood. Childhood has many traits for us to emulate In middle age. Childhood loves laughter and life. ; Children exercise. ’They are always moving and growing. They are happily busy and busily happy. This is why they live abundantly. We who are growing towards forty automatically cease doing these things and unwittingly court old age. Health is the greatest asset of the human race. Daily are we beginningto wake up to the fact that physicians are for the purpose of keeping us well rather than getting us well. Not only Is Individual health kept constantly before the public mind with Its health column In the newspapers, cautioning over-eaters, the radio answering diet questions, outdoor summer camps for younger children, and health books and magazines, but community health is beliig brought to the laity also through cities* safe water and milk supply, cleanliness of streets and new: methods of sewerage disposals. Health at Its best means resistance; to disease, relaxation from mental tension. calm from anxiety* regularity at all times, recreative power through' play, temperate living and thinking. | splrituaV'enthuSiasm for one’s work, f Health brings a radiance in our ’Hying and gives us and others life abundant. • • • RELAXING CAN you Yelax? To relax means to I slacken, and relaxation does just that to human beings, it slackens them., Some individuals grow more tense as the day grows, rushing hither and yon, tremendously busy with tremendous trifles. Seven days a week is this program enacted until haste become* a habit Tension la a foe to modem living. Business folk often start the day; tensely by trying to do two things at' once — reading the morning paper while eating breakfast The whole goal of American living seems to be to save; time. We eat faster, we drive faster, we work faster, which means we really live faster, all to save time, and what do we do with It after it is saved? Much of the work of the world be- ! comeS an endurance test in seeing how ■ long we can hold on. because of tenseness and rigidity that comes of gain-, Ing it, and the arch enemy of the human race appears on our horizon, horns, hoof and tail, tn the shape of FATIGUE. Normal fatigue la nature's way of calling one's attention to the speed limit as a protective measure from driving too fast. She takes this way to assert her own rights. If this sign Is unheeded she sends a danger signal which one cannot ignore, tn the shape of OVER FATIGUE. . i Over fatigue claims a tremendous' toll from the human race In the form of health efficiency and joy. and leaves In their places strained nerves, poor or half-done work, worry and Irritability. Physicians tell us that ten minutes, dally, complete relaxation, mind blank, body limp, on couch, with or without sleep, preferably after lunch, recreates body and soul with renewed energy and outlflbk on life for the other half of the day. It is an art, however, and bow to do It successfully must be learned Hke learning to play a violin.; Relaxation of thia sort should be planned In a day's regular schedule Hke meals are planned, for It u of equal Importance to mind aud body. If Ignored, accumulative fatigue comes sneaking up behind os and inMdlously undermines ns at our dally tasks. Unaware of Its harmful influence we keep on. keeping on untU some day, we fail to appear at our accustomed place and the physician says sadly, "Too bad, too late, thia is a nervous breakdown.** Think this over In time, and dally for ten minutes rest, ropoaa, renew, revivify and rejoice, through relaxation. Syria Syria la a former province of the old Turkish empire, made aa Independent state by the Treaty of Sevres, August 10, 1920. and administered under the mandate given to France by the supreme council of the allied powers, the mandate becoming effective September 29. 1923, Syria ts divided Into the re public of Lebanon and the republic of Syria.
