SECTION
“The American way of life is
full of superlatives; we have the
tallest sky-scrapers, the fastest
trains, the greatest number of
automobiles. We spend more per
capita on vacations than any oth-
er nation. However, due to high
speed, we usually crowd our sum-
mer vacations with such a high
speed program that we fail to se-
cure sufficient real physical relax-
ation,” states Dr. G«o. Cox, State
Health Officer.
“For most persona the exactions
of office, of factory or of home
for a 60-week stretch reflect them-
selves in the need for improving
one’s physical tone.* However, to
expect the majority of vacation-
ists to change their habits regard-
ing the diversions of a summer
sojourn perhaps would be asking
too much. The point is if one has
burned up additional energies and
perhaps called on his physical re-
serves to weather through the
‘good-time’ vacation, an excellent
opportunity now exists to make
amends by taking advantage of
the stimulating autumn weather.
‘‘In fact, the best season of the
year to recoup vitality lost through
the past year’s work now is here.
Its possibilities to build up gen-
eral health and bodily resistance
to winter’s onslaught can not be
over estimated.
I
“To recoup some of the vigor
and abounding health which have
been lost due to the strains and
stresses of the past twelve months,
the following program is suggest-
ed: 1. A brisk walk every day; city
streets will do, if one is denied the 1
open country; 2. seven to eight
hours’ sleep, depending upon one’s
personal requirement*, in 4 prop-
erly ventilated room each night;
occasional breakovers will not be
serious drawbacks, but the habit
should be established and main-
tained; 3. a cut-down on stimu-
lants, if at present any are being
used excessively; 4. a reasonable
intake of nourishing food; 6. elim-
ination of self-drugging of any 1
type, relying solely upon the phy- ]
sician for medical treatment, if
he considers it to be indicated; 6.
proper daily elimination; 7. an at-
tempt to keep worry, even in these
troublous times, within bounds;
and finally, to make use of the
autumn weekends by being in the
open as much as possible,
“Putting autumn, as well as
plain common sense, to work for
your health in this manner, is an
experiment which should be help-
ful as well as healthful to many.”
Rotary Luncheon
An unusually large attendance
was recorded at Rotary Club (to-
day noon, Including a number of
visiting Rotarians from Olney,
and other guests.
A full program was given also, 1
for which much appreciation was ’
expressed by those present.
Glenn Burgess, manager of the
Graham Chamber of Commerce,
spoke on “United States Relations
With Mexico,” end preceding his
talk, Mrs. Ollyne Jeffries, county
home demonstration agent, spoke
briefly on the subject of “Better
Nutrition, a National Defense
need.” She called attention to <
the record that 89.01 per cent of 1
young men called for military 1
service from Young county this I
year we^e found unfit physically,
largely because of insufficient 1
food values.
‘One third of the people of the
United States, or about 46,000,000, {
are hungry," she declared, “be- (
cause of improper diet or insuffi- ,
cient quantity of needed foods for (
making strong bodies.”
She called on all to think seri- ■
ously on the problem of produc- .
ing more foods and arousing the ^
conscience of the American people .
on the need of greater nutritional j
values in foods consumed, and to |
particularly help observe “Nutri-
tion Week, October 26 to Novem-
ber 1,” as a National Defense '
measure. ,
Glenn Burgess, in opening his
address, rt marked that this would (
be his last Rotary club luncheon
in Graham before leaving to take
up his new work at Alpine next 1
week, and took occasion to ex- >
press appreciation for the people 1
of Graham and this territory with 1
whom he has worked several years. '
“I don’t believe any town has
a people more cooperative and
with ability to work together more
than the people of Graham and
this county,” he said.
He then reminded the audience 1
that Graham is not at a standstill 1
but has shown much growth in 1
many ways the past three years :
and has much to look forward to 1
for continued growth and improve-
ment.
“I want to give credit to those
-of. the town’s citizens who have
done such fine work and worked
together to accomplish much im-
provement and growth along many
lines,” he declared.
He paid particular compliment
to E. R. Marchman, President of
the Chamber of Commerce and '
chairman of the Highway Com-
mittee for much highway work ac-
complished in the Graham area,
calling attention to the fact that
State highways costing $588,000
have been built and county high-
ways totaling $112,000, or a total 1
of $700,000 and he estimated that
for the next twelve months there
will be around $400,000 spent and
predicts work will be started soon
on a road from Graham toward *
Graford and the dam. He praised
the cooperative spirit of the coun-
ty administrations, and the grow-
ing friendliness and working dis-
position between Graham and Ol-
ney citizens and also ‘‘better re-
lationships between Chamber of
Commerce and the city and county
Members of the First Baptist

Speaking on hb subject “Rela-
tions with Mexico” Burgess spoke
out of some experience traveling
in Mexico and much study on the
subject, and declared people of the
United States should daal more
honestly and intelligently with
Mexicans and consider potentiali-
ties in the Republic to the South.
With 700,000 Mexicans in Texas
he emphasized the minority possi-
bilities.
