Another Step in Winner
Selection Will Be Held
Friday.

What constitutes a perfectly pro-
/ portioned young woman?" is a
question which has been asked
numerous times since the announce
ment last week that the indiana
Roof ballroom and the Stretch-A-
Way Company of Chicago would
I sponsor a contest to find the most
perfectly proportioned girl in the
state.
J Tom Devine of the roof referred
the question 70 the Office Of Sylvia
7 Natteson, world renowned feminine
culturist. who will visit Indianap-
oils upon her return from Europe to
answer queries on feminine culture.
Mr.. Devine's reply read as fol-
lows:
Proportion is the determinant Of
the ideal figure. To determine cor
I rect measurements. first obtain the
ideal bust measure according to
height:
For ) feet in height 30inch bust
For ) feet l inch 3l-inch bust
The bust measurement exceeds
thirty inches by the same number of
I inches that the height exceeds five
I feet. To determine the waist meas
urement, subtract eight inches from
the ideal bust measurement (as OBJ
tanned above.
To determine the hip measure
ment. add two inches to the bust
measurement. CYou are privileged
with an inch leeway this way Or
that)

Among the many causes OF chick
l.mOrtality may be included The prob
Mems of feeding and feeding methods.
/ A lot of chicks are lost because they
/ do not learn to eat; consequently
they starve to death. Years ago il
! was thought necessary To keep feed
away from baby chicks until they
were sixty To seventy-twO hours old,
recurring that the egg yOlk be alb
sorbed before any feed was given.
The use OF wire batteries as
bruuders taught IT'S that this belief
was erroneous. A less degree of loss
or mortality was often noticed when
broOding was carried on in small
cakes than when the chicks were
kept on brOOden house floors. Chicks
kent in batteries learn to eat as soon
as they were taken from the incu-
batur and they grew rapidly. Max
ing this same early feed cOnsump-
ton possible in brOOder houses has
reduced death losses very materially.
As soon as chicks are taken from
their bOXes-place them in the
brOOder house. preferably at night,
anu put IL Eusiiu Va Soiiic hAhu diOullu
the hover. This will keep them close
to the source of heat.
Cover the floor with paper or
smooth cloth to prevent the possible
consumption OF sand or litter. In
the morning put mash feed on clean
paper or shallow pans just outside
of the edge of the hOver-alOng with
drinking water. IL chicks get
chance to eat sand or litter before
they are given any mash they will
fill their crops. satisfy their appe-
tites. and starve 10 death. Mash may
be offered in small quantities several
times the first day of feeding. but
after that shallow hOppers may be
kept filled with this feed and avail
able at all times.
Move the guard few inches away
from the hover and replace the floor
paper each day. Never allow the
hOppers to become empty or dirty.
