stretch you'll find delightful.
Practice it many times each day.
Originate your own stretching
and dance movements when you're
alone. Such spontaneous exercise
and continuous stretching should
make you slim, graceful and fit as
an athlete. and yet will not take
any amount of time-only mo-
ment now and then.
Be sure to dress loosely so that
your muscles will be free to
stretch and relax. The woman
who tightly binds her chest, her
torso or any other part of her
body to meet foolish, commercial
dictates of fashion loses all oppor-
tunity for the slender suppleness
that is Natures gift. Moreover,
she takes grave risk Of perman-

restful, invigorating pull at al
most all the muscles Of your body.
Stand straight, feet slightly
parted, toes facing straight
ahead. Rise on your tip-toes as
far as you can. Return to posi-
ton. Rise on your heels as high
as possible and return to first
position. Repeat ten times.
Stand straight and lift your
arms straight over your head
vertically. Slowly, turn your
trunk as far as you can to the
right, using your waist as a
pivot. Return to position. Now
turn your trunk in the same way
to the left. Repeat ten times.
Finally standing straight,
clench your fists and raising your
arms with your elbows unbent,
stretch your body to it's greatest
possible height.
An additional value OF these
stretching exercises is that they
will tend to make a short person
appear tall by encouraging erect
ness Of carriage. And by giving
supple grace Of movement, they
will seemingly detract from the
height of a very tall woman.
