Couch:- I am writing the following testimonial to you in order that it may, through the medium of the press, aid some of my fellow men who may be in the same physical condition I once endured. TESTIMONIAL T0 lYhom it May Concern :- Prior to my use of the wonderful ATHLETIC HEALER FOR ALL ILLS OF THE YOUTH, I was in a deplorable condition. My physique was really pitiable. My shoulders were stooped, my chest hollow, and my limbs scraggly and undeveloped. I was a victim of two very common disorders, known as Bookworm and Timidity, and, from all appearance, I was suffering from a very aggravated case of streak of yellow. Altogether, I presented a weak-eyed, knock-kneed, anaemic appearance and was classed with Boobs and Good for Nothingsu among 1ny fellow students. After consulting many eminent doctors and being told by each that my case was hopeless. I chanced to meet a friend who recommended your wonderful ATHLETIC HE.-'XLER SERIES. Almost despairing, I consented to try the marvelous remedy. I procured one bottle of the series of curatives. As it was in the fall of the year, the first bottle contained ESSENCE OF FOOTBALL. I took the whole bottle and in a remarkable short time I was relieved considerably. In the spring of the year. I took another bottle of the wonderful remedy series. TRACK XYORK, THE NEW' SPRING TONIC, was an instantaneous relief to me. Since my first bottle of the elixir I have improved so rapidly that my old acquaintances hardly know me. My muscles have developed, my shoulders have straightened, and my chest has expanded, and my manner has become aggressive, lively and spirited. I have completely vanquished my old enemies, Bookworm and Timidity, and have been thoroughly cured of every ailment.

rcirlf vast, A-..... I ' 'Yet Track lkiith the track season just over we can look back and see what a wonder- ful season we have enjoyed this year. XYith nearly all of the men back this year who starred in last years runs and with several promising new men to train, Couch Couch started the season with several weeks of cross country runs. The first meet was the annual home meet which the Seniors won. There was at no time any doubt as to the outcome. Doc Miller. the husky Senior sprinter and field man, took individual honors. In the annual Cedar Valley meet at Cedar Falls, lYest High ran away with everything in sight. Her nearest opponents were two score of points behind. Doc Miller ran away with individual honors. At Iowa City. llest showed the State a strong team. She came out second in the meet, being but a few points behind the leader. A'Doc Miller also took individual honors in this meet At Ames, Ylest was not quite so successful, but succeeded in taking fourth place. Doc again ran away with individual honors. Doc went to .Xnn Arbor, Michigan. His showing 'there was excellent. He won both the hundred and two-twenty. easily defeated some of the best High School runners of the Middle West. Doc is probably the best all around athlete ll est has ever had. An all-state football man and the fastest sprinter of the Middle West is the honor which he possesses. XYest High will wait a long time before she has another Doc Owen is NN'est lligh's jumper. His record is 5 feet, 6 inches and with train- ing he will do better. Our expectation is to see him place high next year. Hoag, Rliler, showing good form and will develop into a line distance runner. Haselman, Banton, Simmons, KlcAlvin, Lichty, Alexander, Hitchens, Robin- son, and Allen, these have helped uphold XYest High's name and have well de- served the Honor XY which was awarded them.
