about the size of her hands and feet
or the shape of her features or her
figure. She imagines that every one
notices or comments upon her faults.
The first step that she must take in
gaining poise is to change her point
of view. She must tell herself over
and over again that other people do
not spend their time watching her,
and even If they did, she would not
care rap because she was too busy
attending to her own affairs.
A very great aid in acquiring poise
is to practice balancing exercises and
dancing steps for at least Is minutes
a day, or until ones mind has caught
the rhythm of these graceful motions.
Very easy movements may be used to
begin with, but later more complicated
combinations should be attempted.
For example. the following exercises
may be used the first week:
!. Walk forward on a straight line,
holding the figure as tall as possible
In taking a step swing the left leg for
ward from the hip. toe pointed, and
rise on the toe of the right foot; step

Overcoming Awkwardness.

Our talk today is for the benefit of
the tall girls who are embarrassed by
their own awkwardness in walking and
dancing. When they try to carry
themselves erect they look stiff. but
when they try to relax their figures
slump into an unloveIy S-shape. Their
problem is to develop gracefulness in
every movement or gesture, which
may seem a very hard task to many
of my young readers.
Gracefulness is really the outward
manifestation of poise. which in turn
is largely a self-confident attitude. The
awkward girl is almost always n very
self-conscious person. She worries

takes comfort. For several years past
it has been criticizing Coolidge for
his refusal to favor increases in the
military and naval budget. Wives,
mothers, aunts and cousins of naval
and army officers have poured oceans
OF tea in protest at the parsimony of
Coolidge. From time to time they
have celebrated a victory with the
appropriation of few millions for
cruisers or other items that gave new
hope for better incomes for the naval
families. Now, having abandoned
his own hopes of remaining in the
presidency, Coolidge gives them as
surance that he will at least preserve
neutrality on the existing budget lines.
And the suggestion that there can be
