Miss MaiKle Acheson retiirnii to Mel- Hiu'thon Station for the thinl year. it was so large that trees ^ew in its crevices. It was lifted upon brass slediges and dragged to the shores of the Gulf, which effort took the work of 400 men for a whole year. They made only about 6S0 feet daily. It is now shown as an example of the Tsarina Catherine II. Writers on Russia have acquainted us with the casualness with which Rusisans mix the sexes in alloting compartments on trains. It is one thing to read of it, bvt quite another to come face to face with the reality. It is just a little better than an all night run from Leningnrad to Moscow and it was on this journey we en- countered Russian pullman methods. In sorting ourselves out we found next to us, on one side a friendly New York woman who had as her compart- ment companions three Frenchmen, who, contrary to the traditional gal- lantry of the French, were vehe- mently protesting against the ar- rangements, with exclamations of "Oo la la!" On the other side a well-dress- ed Frenchwoman wept and stormed because she and her husband had to share their sleeping compartment with two Russian men. The lady's hus- band sat before the door of the com- partment and would not for a time allow them to enter. Later the mat- ter was adjusted by the New York Woman moving in with the French- woman, her husband and one Russian. We were fortunate in having three women and one man. Mo.seow is the heart or possibly one should say the head of Russia. It is here that final plans are drafted and the great decisions made. Here too is the Kremlin, seat of the Soviet government, where Stalin's officers are, and outside the Wall, which en- closes it, the famed Red square, where the great demonstrations take place in front of Lenin's tomb. It is a great city of approximately four million people, not beautiful like Leningrad, but busy. In our five days we crowded in as much as we could, we saw clinics and hospitals, parks of rest and culture, Stakhanovite rest homes, factories, collective farms and a pri- son, as well as art galleries and mus- eums, but of these we have not now time to tell. It was a tired group of people who filled the train from Moscow back to l-eningrad. Fifty of these were of the Sherwood Eddy party, some ef whom had been travelling and studying Kuiope since the end of June. This is the seventeenth organized group Sherwood Kddy has taken to Rus- sia. .\motig them we found two Canadians, the Rev. Mr. Kelloway, now of Calgary, but formerly of Ot- tawa, and Diek Davis of the central F. M. C. A.. Toronto. -ACNKS MACPHAIL Leningrad, U. S. S. R. AuKiut Uth. I!>36. C3^ A MtAkTM •CMVtCC Of TMC CANABIAM MCStCAL ^SaOCiATIOM AMO LIFC NMWNAMCI COMPAMIC* IN «A«AOA EXERCISE IN MIDDLE LIFE Are you as good a man as you were twenty years ago? Can you swim to the yellow boathouse and back? Can you still show the son and heir how to win a canoe race? Can you "make" that street car? We won't argue vrih you. Perhaps you can; perhaps you cannot. But we shall carefully avoid encouraging you in any way to prove that yon can do it, for, as a writer recently re- marked, "One of the greatest beset- ting sins of the man of forty is van- ity." If you are leading an active phys- ical life with lots of muscular activ- ity and strain, you are probably able to stand ordinary athletic activities, but such a person seldom deliberately seeks exercise. The man who needs to supervise his athletic activities is the man of sedentary occupation who tries to crowd into one or two hectic hours all of the exercise which could be spread out over the entire week. Active singles competition, such as in tennis, badminton or squash, are really too strenuous for the office worker over forty unless he is taking exercise regularly every day or is willing to play very slowly indeed. To rush through a day's work by two-thirty, bolt a late lunch and then drive at breakneck speed through traffic to keep a golfing engagement does one far more harm than is offset by playing over the fairway for three hours. One has almost reached th* nineteenth hole before th« nerroiu system will have relaxed. We take a fishing trip to harden op those soft flabby muscles, bat that cannot be done in a day, nor can w* expect to carry a ninety-pound c«no« over a rough portage without sub- jecting ourselves to a strain that may leave its mark long after the trip has been forgotten. Better by far is it to take our «(• ercise steadily rather than In inter- mittent overdosage. Take some ex- cise every day if possible; if that can- not be done, at least every other day. Out-door exercise is best. Walkini^ la one of the best forms â€" even on city streets. Golf, riding, fishing, bowl- ing, swimming are to be recommend- ed. Gardening, with its stooping and bending and mental concentration, makes excellent exercise. WTiile not as desirable as out-doo* exercise, indoor recreation may ba necessary and it serves exceedingly well. A daily swim in a tank, a workout in a gymnasium, a period on the home rowing machine or a plea- sant dance help to keep one fit A- bove all think twice before accepting a challenge I ♦♦ ♦ 1 1 >♦♦* 1 1 1 1 1 * ****** * ** * * No Credit In future we will sell ;! for ca.sh only.
