Neck and Throat Massage.

. There is never any reason for
neglected or ugly neck, or any reason
why the neck should grow old.
Wrinkles are bound to come on the
face. The chin line is certain to lose
its frmness. Sensible treatments can
tonly minimize the effects of time.
they cannot eliminate them. But the
neck can be kept young as long as
you have the patience ito treat it.
One reason for this is that you can
exercise the neck and you cannot ex-
ercise the face, you can feed the It's
sues of the neck with cocoa butter,
which the complexion could not stand.
; You can give the neck far more Wig
orous massage than the face would
bear.
No matter what your trouble is. be-
gin the treatment by scrubbing the
neck with warm water, a mild soap
and moderately stiff bristled flesh
brush. This opens and cleanses the
pores of the skin. but. more than this,
; it stimulates and invigorates the
muscles by bringing up to them a

N ISIS ELIZABETH FISHER of
MI the playground department
has returned from Atlantic


has returned from Atlantic
City. where she attended the
Ninth Recreation Congress with Miss
Nina White and Richard -Tennyson.
also OF the local municipal playground
department.
Il was delighted to see how far in
advance Washington was in regard
to methods used by the girls who act
as directors on our Fairgrounds" said
Miss Fisher Il feel that now the
principal problem for US to solve is
one which involves the recreation ac-
tjvities of the young girl between the
eighth grade and the third year in
high school. Owing to the extremely
crowded conditions for classes and
groups needing training in sports In
the local high schools, 1t Is the fresn-
men and sophomore girls who suner
by being cut out of all use OF the
schoolrooms and gymnasiums. except
for such studies and physical train
ing as are absolutely required. AS
soon as Mrs. Rhodes has returned
from her western trip we intend 10
take up this problem more definitely
While attending the congress Miss
Fisher spoke on the revival ana re-
vision OF old sports for girls and boys
on the playground. Miss White spoke
on the most recent project instituted
on Washington playground ana a
,, most successful one. the tvCd-Hrs
corner" for the little child of pre-
school age,
Mr. Tennyson spoke. on his adapta-
ton of golf to playground purposes.
which has been very popular during
the past season-the so-called game
of tin-can golf.
According to Miss Fisher there
were 1900 delegates present at the
congress. They came from every part
of the United States, and many noted
educators were among them. the
problem of the happer and her enect
on municipal recreation was one OF
the leading topics discussed, and II
was generally conceded that the mod
ern young girl Is much more IN
clined to athletics and to enjoy out
door living by camping. hiking, ETC..
than the girls OF preceding genera
tons.
A new sport for girls. which Miss
Fisher intends to start in Washing
ton. is javelfn throwing. which re-
uuires considerable skill and aids
greatly in developing graceful postures
and a proper sense OF balance in the
girl. The uniqueness of this sport should
appeal to many girls who do no; care
for some OF the other sports now en-
ragged in by girls.
