It Is as Important as food, fresh air and sleep; without It health Is Impossible. By "exercise" we mean making move ments other than the purposeful move ments of ordinary Ilfa Brushing the hair, raising food to the mouth, getting up and sitting down are done for a purpose and are of course exercise of a sort, but we do not do them with the Idea of developing oUr muscles, ex panding our chests, or quickening our circulations. The Impulse to take exercise Is tn sUnctlve In the young. During child hood It finds expression In playing and romping; during youth and early adult life, In sports and athletic contests. It Is not necessary to urge young people to take that kind of exercise; rather, It is necessary to utter a word of warning against excess. The young man of the present day la In greater danger of overtaxing his heart and oth er organs by excess in athletics than he Is of letting them spoil for want of sufficient exercise. It Is the busi ness man or the professional man who has passed his fortieth birthday that needs exercise and that usually thinks be la too busy to take It A favorite argument of the brain worker who la advised to walk, or to play golf, or to take some other form of regular exercise. Is that he has ex hausted his vitality by brain work, and that the use of his muscles be yond the absolute needs of dally life would exhaust still further his life forces. That Is not so, for the brain Is fa tigued only because It Is fed with blood that circulates sluggishly and that Is already so loaded with toxins that It cannot take away those that result from Intellectual work. A brisk walk would fill the brain worker's lungs with air, quicken his circulation oxygenate his blood and unload It of Its toxins, squeeze the stagnant lymph out of his muscles, empty his liver of Its poisons and quicken all his excre tory functions. Then his brain would be bathed with fresh, pure blood, and the "cobwebs" would be washed away —Youth's Companion. BACK TO THE LAND MOVEMENT Why ths Checking ef the March to tho Cities la Probably Only Temporary. The tide of population which ha> been rushing from the country to the city has been temporarily checked ; In fact it Is receding in the other dlrec tlon at the present time, Farmers and farm laborers, lured to town b? Inflated wartime wages, are returning to their rural haunts, now that theli source of high living has gone, them are going unemployed city labor ere, largely foreigner*, and some city business men who havfe beard tin siren call of the countryside. This movement, which started with the demobilization of our troops, and accelerated by the shutting down Wltl was of "war babies" has received added Impetus «vom the general business slump. There Is undoubtedly a fsrmward movement. But Is It great enough to be significant ? When I discussed this question with the editor of Leslie's I felt that If there was a back-to-the-farm move ment, It was not pronounced enough to be Important. After considerable Investigation In various sections of the country and after receiving facta and opinions from agricultural colleges, farm bureaus and state departments In a dozen states, my original Idea has been upheld. The cityward trend be balanced for the time being may by the movement back to the land, but such a condition la for the mo ment only. Farming la far from being "the Ufa Many of Riley" In the year 1921. farms are being sold for taxes; mort foreclosures are forcing unfor tunate farmers to become wage earu ; returned farm laborers will find farm wages ratner meager after their well-filled city pay envelopes, and undoubtedly will m»»« back te elusive job, plumbing, and friendly movie palaces. —Andrew S.
