bust measurement may be as much
as one-half inch less than the
chest circumference. In extreme
overweight, the bust may exceed
the chest by four to six inches.
Either extreme is far from lovely.
Since these glands are held in
place by fan-shaped muscles ex-
tending across the front of the
chest and inserted in the upper
arm, exercise is valuable in the
improvement of bust contour.
Exercise fills out deficient It's
sue in the underdeveloped girl and
breaks down excess fat deposit in
the overweight.
Because of the origin and inser-
ton of the muscles, arm exercises
strengthen these supporting mus
cles and raise the bust to normal
position. Hanging from a bar
provides exercises that is real eX-
ertion for the pectoral muscles.
A hanging bar can be erected in
a doorway and used daily for the
improvement of your figure.
Here is another exercise which
tones the pectoral muscles and
elevates the bust to normal posi-
ton.
Position: Standing erect, arms
extended straight overhead, feet
slightly apart.
Movement: With arms up
stretched, make circles, moving
arms backward and down to
shoulder level, continuing the Cir
Gle up in front and straight over
head. Perform 10 times; rest. Re
peat 10 times.
The girl with a large, flabby
bust should reduce her weight to
normal and exercise to improve
the position. The underweight
should raise weight and vitality
to normal and exercise to fill out
the deficient tissues.
There are two sets of bust eX-
ercises, Dust Reducing Exercises"
and "Bust Development Exercises"
Send for the set needed. It takes
several months to improve the
contour of the bust, but normal
weight and consistent exercise
will give you lovely figure.

THERE has been very good fox
hunting around Charlottes-
Vile lately, made doubly en-
Il joyable because Of the sports
almost complete cessation during the
Winter. Keswick Hunt had great
day when members met recently at
Glenmore at 8 o'clock. They drew to-
wards Shadwell and soon started fox
and had a good run across many OF
the fine farms in that section. After
staying out for several hours they put
the fox to earth.
Among those in the field following
the master. Arthur Talcott, were Miss
Jamie Terrill, Mrs. Arthur Talcott,
Mrs. John Sully. Mrs. E. H. Joslin.
Miss Carol Talcott, Miss Caroline Raj
ferty, Mrs. Cary jackson, Turner
Brown, Richard Hall, Erich Mesettig,
Cheston Hall, William Toole and sew
ersl others.
The Pennington Hunt Club had q
fast and exciting run this week, a
bye-day. They dropped a big red
fox on the Colthurst farm, the hounds
soon picked up the trail and away
they went In full cry" The run
lasted for more than three hours.
Then Mr.. Fox" found den and was
safe for that day. The 10 or II fol-
lowers were most enthusiastic over
the run.
Miss Charlotte holland of Foxcroft
School and Joint master Of the Mid
dleburg Hunt, has been elected presi-
dent Of the Unison Bloomfield horse
show to succeed the late Turner j.
Ross. Mr.. Ross had been a most effi-
cient president, ever since the show
was started IS years ago. and his loss
will be greatly felt. The officers feel
that they are most fortunate in the
election Of Miss Noland to fill his
place. Other officers of the associa-
ton are H. L. Keen, vice president;
o. I. Beavers, manager; H. H. Otley,
secretary treasurer. and Karlton Mon
roe, assistant secretary.
This annual horse show will be held
this year on May 6. The proceeds will
be used for. charitable work in Mercer
district. Helping the officers to plan
and run the show will be Holland
Potter, Guy Rust and w. F. Peach.
The Unison Bloomfield show is al
ways the first of the season and to it
every one brings show horses. In
this good ring, with its background
of the beautiful Blue Ridge Noun
tains, one will see many Of Virginia's
best hunters and show horses, all get
ting ready for the larger horse shows
that take place later.

In a series of stirring messages
delivered in the Twin Cities Oct.
8 and 9, Norman Thomas, presi-
Dental candidate of the Socialist
party, put forth his party's plat
form and principles in the present
election campaign. He made four
speeches in this area-at the Stu

Mimi, at a mass meeting in the
evening, at a mass meeting in st.
Croix, Wis, near the home of
George Nelson, Socialist vice
presidential candidate, and a BAN
quet and mass meeting in st. Paul
on Friday evening, all meetings
but the University meeting being
under the auspices of the Mime

Socialist party. Highlights of his
speeches follow:

If You're Perfectly Beautiful
Stay Away From HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 10 I.N.s.)
If no one has ever told you that
you are perfectly beautiful" you
have hopes Of becoming a motion
picture star.
This is the belief Of Sam Wood,
veteran M-G-M film director.
Wood feels that perfection can be
a handicap rather than an aid to
screen actresses.
That, he said today, is because
perfection is not human.
Perfection in an actress is tir-
ing and boring, because it is not
true to life and things which are
not real do not please audiences, :"
Wood explained.
mo one believes himself per-
feet and if he ever thought he was
becoming perfect, he would be
frightened" he said. 80, people
who 60 to theaters want their favo-
rites to have little faults just like
themselves. That creates a COM
mon feeling and understanding.
IF you were to take a perfect
beauty, with perfect voice and per
feet clothes and parade her on the
screen, she would be dismal flop,
because she would be too good to
be true and the audience won't
see anything like themselves in
her.
"A blemish is an asset more

|often than not. Practically
every great star on the screen
today has some little fault in
beauty or mannerism. Even
those who dance or sing per.
fectly have other little Imperfect
lions which make them human.
"A girl with a perfect face
and figure might be a sensation
if she had an ungainly walk or
a far-from-perfect voice. So if a
girl thinks she's a perfect
beauty, she had better dig up a
few faults before coming to
Hollywood.
There isn't a comedian in the
entire entertainment world today
who doesn't capitalize on the
knowledge that the public doesn't
like perfection. He can't even
have a perfect mentality and be
too cock-sure of himself because
no one Is without mistakes.

comedians, surround themselves
