YOUR FIGURE is AS YOUNG
AS YOU MAKE 1T

Given an average figure, what do
you do to keep it? Do you stand
erect or SLOUGH? What about walking
and sitting and dancing; sewing and
scrubbing and cooking?
The woman with the average fig
ure is the envy of all her friends be-
cause she can wear anything, and
"ready -mades" fit her to perfection.
She looks well whatever she wears
and whatever she doesi
The clothing specialist at State
College says that scrubbing is not
only good for the floor, but is good
for your figure if you go at it in the
right way. Some women pay special
lists to exercise their muscles for
them when they might just as well
do it themselves at home, and at the
same time accomplish something.
You can keep your figure young
and beautiful even tho grey hair,
wrinkles and grandchildren are added
unto you. If you find it strains you
to bend down, then you should begin
bending regularly.

The oval rug in the middle of the

in hit-or-miss fashion. The lower rug
is in dark colors- in fact made out
of old brown, grey and black stock

make each rug of one type of mater.
ial When two weights of material is
used together, as wool and cotton, the

and more difficult to sew.
The rags for the rugs should be cut
about three inches wide. The pieces
are then sewed together end to end
and rolled into a ball to facilitate
handling. The raw edges of the ma.
terial are turned in as it is braided.
For round rugs the braid is sewed
around until the desired size is at
tanned. For oval rugs two parallel
rows are sewed together for the cen
ter and then the rest is sewed about
them as nucleus.
Care should be taken i'm sewing TO
keep the rug flat. 1t is like sewing on
a bias, and enough slack must be al
lowed to keep the rug from "hoop-

A WARNING TO THE CHURCHES

A recent investigation of fake in
vestments and bucket shop stock sell
ing schemes published in one of the
large magazines divulged the fact
chat ministers were more gullible in
being defrauded of their savings by
glib-tongued statesmen than men in
any other profession. This is perhaps
due to the fact that ministers are
prone to have more faith in others
than the average man.
Churches, in their sincere desire to
help any worthy cause, will often
contribute funds to questionable OBJ
iects. And many times the funds
are diverted from the supposedly
worthy object toward which they are
contributed. In the present case Of
Anderson, of the New York Anti
Saloon League, there should be a
warning to the churches who con-
tribute their funds TO such reform
ers.
The Grand Jury found sufficient
evidence against Anderson to war
rant his Indictment for the way he
handled funds for the Anti-Saloon
League. 1t appears that he deducted
commissions from the fund collected.
Yet he is being paid a big salary for
his supposed services.
This should be warming to min
listers and jealous church people to
see that their hard earned money ac-
tually reaches the objects for which
it is contributed.
