Advice on Health Given to Members of Triangle Club 40 to 50 Held Dangerous Age for Men by Dr. J. F, Lang* don—Light Exercise Is Suggested. The .dangerous age of a man is be tween 40 and 50. according to Dr. J. K. Langdon, who spoke to members of the Triangle club yesterday noon at Hotel Eontenelle on the value of Physical exercise during the seven ages of man. "Between 40 and 50 a man should slow up a little,” the doctor said. "He should take up golf and may indulge In fishing, walking and similar diver sions, hut he should not engage In violent or competitive sports. During this period of his life exercise should be slow, easy and continual." The speaker referred to golf as a grand and glorious sport and not necessarily an old man's game. Strong Rody First. "It is a mistake to allow your girl or boy to develop mentally at the ex- • pense of physical welfare," the doctor ■ continued. "I would rather have my j hoy an average scholar and strong in body. Every man can to a largel ex- I tent develop his physical structure. He should strive to have blood of sufficient quality and quantity and he ' should understand that the heart is j the central power station of his body." ! Outdoor sports were favored be- ! cause of the fresh air feature and Dr. ' Langdon gave due credit to the use- I fulness of the gymnasium and home exercise. He urged that every man should adopt some form of sport, par- , ticulnrly the business man, who is in liis office most of the working hours. All Roys Should Swim. "Every boy should be taught to swim," the doctor said. ‘’Swimming teaches a boy courage and confidence and brings all muscles Into play. Walking Is one of the best forms of exercise and should he followed as siduously. T'p to 12 years of age a | girl should be permitted to play the j games that boys play, but between 12 , afid 20 her play and exercise should be supervised, perhaps in a gym- i nasium. "Seventy-five per cent of a doctor's cases are among women and most of these cases arc due to neglect of ■ proper exercise between 10 and 20. "Js spading in the garden during these spring days good exercise?" a j member asked. "It is,” was the reply. Harry S. Byrne wanted to know 1 what kind of exercise a man should , take between 60 and 70 and was told 1 that his exercise should be mild. WOAW Radio Artists Are Heard at Distant Points Listener! In to WOAW who heard i the offerings of the Mt. Calvary Com- . mandery band of the Masonic York Rite organization were treated to an ! exceptional musical program.

"The great mass of the American people Is too broadminded to be duped by organizations which attempt to stir up religious and race prejudice in this country.
