NO WONDER MARYLANDERS CROW OVER FRIED CHICKEN
 (By NEA Service)

Any citizen of Maryland will tell you that Maryland fried chicken is the finest food in the world.
 Of course each of us has her own candidate for this honor. The New Englander will say that the most delicious dish of all, and one that typifes American cookery at it's best, is a perfect huckleberry Die. The Louisianan is likely to claim that crab gumbo takes all prizes, and the Texan will rhap- sodize in praise of barbecued beef. Well, 1t all depends on your To- cal spirit. And fine thing 1t is, too, to have enthusiasm for the characteristic dishes of your own section of the country. Few realize that American cookery is quito as varied and stimulating as that to be found in different parts of Europe. Those who have tasted the cele- brated dishes of north, south, east and west know how false is the statement that American cooks must take back seat for those of Eprope. .
 Now for Maryland fried chicken. The test is in the eating, so try it for yourself.

 New fall clothes call for trim hips, a full chest and . supple, slender waistline. A forrn-flttiag Empire gown isn't fiattering if the figure under 1t is bulgy in spots. A skirt that molds the hips, then flares outward below them isn't for one with fat hips and thighs. This is a season when every dress you own will show every curve of your body.
 Naturally, you don't have to be as slender as a reed sof Q size l2 to look lovely in new clothes or old. Provided you hold yourself erect, step lightly and look curved and round instead of lutnpy, you can be lovely though stout.
 Everyone ought to realize the irn- portance of Q perfectly fitted foun- dation garment of good girdle. Un- less you are definitely thin with 8 minimum of flesh on your hips and thighs, you need something to make you look firm and trim. If you have little faith in what a fine, supple girdle can do for the appearance of your figure, try on a tight-fitting dress without the girdle then again with 1t. No one will have to point out the difference to you. Naturally, 1t takes a little time to get used to wearing any kind of corset, but, once you do, you'll feel badly groomed without 1t. By then, you will be willing to admit that the first few days of discomfort are really worth while.
 Don't, however, rely on . girdle to make you. look fifty pounds lighter. If you want to accomplish this, you must do special exercises and eliminate greasy, rich, fattening foods from your diet Rolling rou- tines are good for the hips. Stretch ing exercises will improve your waistline. Try stretching backward instead of forward, thereby pulling upward all the lazy muscles around your middle. Incidentally, backward and forward stretches are splendid for chest and shoulders as well as WaiStltne. SsrrtN at @

Your Health
Hard Of Hearing Should Get Experts
 Advice In Use Of Sound Amplifier

Those who build these devices are equipping rooms in which the pur- chaser may actually test the device before he buys 1t, exactly as those who purvey eyeglasses now provide suitable rooms for fitting and test ing.
 At the same time, however, some stores have begun to put in depart ments for the sale of hearing de- vices, with non-medical or non- technical persons in charge. The purchaser who buys such device without first having a suitable ex- animation of the ear is taking a chance with both his hearing and his money.
 Specialists in diseases of the ear know that there are some forms of deafness in which an electrical aid may be of little assistance, and in which 1t may in the long run interfere with hearing. There are cases of damage to the nerve con- cerned in hearing, due not only to disease, but to old age,
 In all such cases, scientific ex- animation must precede the pre- scribing of hearing devices, if best results are to be secured.
