Dear Miss Leeds: Please publish an

| thin legs How can I fatten them
Does borax In the shampoo make the

SUE.
Answer-Dance exercises are fine for
making one nimble. Here Is q simple
one that should be done as quickly as
YOU can do it--in time to fast marcn
music. Begin by standing erect, with
heels together. On the first count slide
your right foot straight out to the side,
toe pointed and just resting on the
floor. On the second count draw the
right foot toward the left foot. placing
right heel against left instep; the feet
are at right angles. On the third count
point the toe straight out IN front. on
the fourth count slide the foot back,
crossing the right shin over the left
leg and placing the right heel against
the toe Of the left foot. Students Of
dancing learn to place the feet parallel
with the heel Of one at the toe OF the
other, but you need not turn the feet
50 far as this. Run through the move
ments quickly. Jumping rope and ten

one light on ones feet, but they are

COLLEEN MOORE IS
 AT PALACE TOMORROW

Revealing new talents as scen- arist, Elsie Janis, popular stage ccmedienne, wrote the adaptation from which Colleen Moore's "Oh Kay!" was made into a motion picture.
 Miss Janis played the leading role in the stage version of "Oh, Kay!' which is to be seen on the screen at the Palace Sunday and Monday nights only, starring Miss Moore. During a tour of the country in this musical comedy, Miss Janis played in Los Angeles, where Miss Moore saw in the entertaining story, ma terial for a picture. Believing Miss Janis had caught the spirit of the characterization of "Oh, Kay!" John Mccormick, producer, arranged with her to prepare a screen treatment of the story.
 "Oh, Kay!" follows closely the story as it appeared on the stage, with the humor increased by the greater possibilities of the screen. Mervyn LeRoy directed "Oh, Kay!'i Miss Moore's supporting. cast in- cluding Lawrence Gray, Alan Hale, Ford Sterling, Claude Gillingwater and Julanne Johnston. The scen- ario was prepared by Carey Wilson from Miss Janis adaptation.
