for woman to say she won't do these

You and your husband have youth,

happy and prosperous marriage, but
it is up to you whether you make a

doesn't your husband try as hard to

Why don't you try to understand each

Golf Fine
For Figure
No Better Exercise
For Waistline or

BY ELSIE PIERCE.

A SIX a golfer why he likes the
sport. He'll tell you that it is
not only because it hatters his ego
as his game improves, not only be-
cause Of the exercise II affords, not
only the fine things 1t does TO the
form Chis own and the game's), but
above all the escape it affords from
worry, tension and routine.
A golfer will tell you that al
though It makes him plenty mad"
when shots 60 askew. the game in
the main Is very peaceful. restful
1t makes you feel that all's right
with the world. A man I know runs
away to the golf course whenever
he gets "a great big business head
ache" The best way to clear his
head when it's in q muddle Is to
play 1S holes.
Let's see precisely what the move
ments in a game of golf actually
do for the body. Suppose you had
TO bend from the waist a hundred
times. 1t would take an iron will to
do that, wouldn't 1t? And you would
regard it as that much routine and
hate it for all that. But golf gives
you plenty Of bending without re-
minding you that it's routine. Golf
gives you twisting. too. And deep
knee bending And arm and shoulder
movement. Then, too, there's walk
ing done-nliles Of it-which makes
it all to the good for calves and
ankles.
The shoulder and arm movement
are automatically exercises for the
bust. too. Which means trmer muscles
there and more beautiful, feminine
curves
More and more women are going
in for golf. But trouble is, too many
are quick to give it up because they
are discouraged almost from the begin
ming. That's bad. Think of the fun in
the game. The JOY and pleasure that
comes with it. Aim for par at first.
And be content even If your score
is far from par. The brides come
by themselves-later-a they sur
prise you when you least expect TO
make them. So take heart. And get
all the good you can out Of your
golf.

PETTY ANN, at the age when ex-

height, has been left with grandma
for the day. After exploring the
rooms, asking countless questions to
her satisfaction, she looked about for
some other way to knowledge. There
was grandma She had not really

what would happen anyway. Some
such thought must have crossed Betty

Presently, having made up her mind
about it, she advanced q step and said,

mo. I'm going to tear your book

loud and dominating.
Grandma looked at her, saw the
light of combat in her eyes and calmly
turned to her book. There was not
the slightest sign on that placid face
that would lead Betty Ann TO think
that she had been heard. She took a
step nearer.

Grandma turned q page, but made no
sign of having heard the noise.
Bafned, but undefeated, Betty Ann
took deep breath, stiffened her body
and emitted a screeching yell without
words, blood-curdling in its rage and
volume. Grandma never winked an
eye, but remained absorbed in her
book. Again the yell. Betty Ann was
red in the face and the cords in her
neck stood out. She rested a spell,
gathered all her remaining power and
emitted another yell. No sign from
grandma. Then Betty Ann sat down
on the floor and cried-frst loudly,
then more softly. Still grandma
read her book.
Grandma, came plaintive little
voice from the floor. Grandma,
haven't you any ears9 Don't you
hear me?"
Grandma looked up, q puzzled ex-
preston on her face. as one who has
had his dream broken. why, I did
hear a noise, but never listen to

noises. I always listen to people who
have soft ways Of talking. because
they are easy on my ears. If you were
making a loud noise I did not listen.

less for Those Who
Like to Travel.
BY GAEL RENFREW.

TO HAVE shed a fascinating new
light on luggage is the achieve
ment of a New York girl who wanted
TO have a Job that was different"
1t had been her good fortune to
travel and she had early foreseen the
possibilities Of travel as q stock in
trsde-a design for living, drawn from
the always-desired new angle" She
did not aspire to write books or articles
about the places she had been. nor did
she want to take parties there on con-
Quoted tours. But she did long to re-
move the thorn In the side Of all trav.
elers-perplexity over clothes and
luggage.
Miss X. knew how completely ex-
cess baggage can spoil the first trip
abroad-or at home, too, for that mat
ter-the time and the money and the
temper that the inexperienced trav-
eler may spend in this direction! Yet
to go away on too short rations may
mean turning down delightful invi-
tation because one has not had room
to take the proper clothes.
1t was at the very deadline of the
depression-the Summer of 1932-that
Miss x. approached a nationally
known wholesale house then making
the bold gesture of opening q retail
luggage shop in New York. She told
them that selling trunks and suit
cases to customer was only half the
business. The problems of luggage and
clothes are interrelated, therefore
there should be on hand a consultant
to help purchasers solve both prob
lens. She had made q speciality Of
such study during her own travels.
Well, the young lady was taken on,
and now this stores customers know
that they can command the services
Of an expert to assist them in their
choice of baggage, tell them what to
take, and, If necessary, pack for them.
In addition to knowing the type of
suit case required for any trip. Miss K

Just need shaking out" the type of
garment that serves several purposes
and is still correct, the things that can
safely be omitted, the things that GER
tainly should be taken-these are all
at her fngertips.
Modern luggage, being something Of
q marvel, calls for a certain amount
Of manipulation. Thus, 1t sometimes
happens that q fiustered female can't
remember how to swing In and out

The firm also issues booklets sum-
marizing the advice given by this
clever adviser and containing valuable
information on such miscellaneous
subjects as passports, tips and customs
requirements.

The Old Gardener Saws:

The plan Of covering grapes is
worth adopting in sections where
troublesome birds abound. Not
infrequently fruit growers allege
that their grapes have been bitten
into by bees, but this is mistake,
for the physical makeup Of bees
is such that they are not able to
puncture a grape skin. 1t is true
that they are often found on
grapes, taking up the juice that
exudes through wounds. These
wounds, however, have been made
by birds, as q rule, certainly
never by the bees themselves.
Covering the grape vines when
the fruit Is partly formed will
give q crop Of high quality. It is
q better plan for the average
amateur to fuIIow than the one
sometimes recommended Of tying
paper bags over the punches Of
grapes. because involving much
less work.

Marriage Always Takes a Slump After
the Honeymoon Has Really Set.

~ EAR MISS DIX: I have
been married q year. Some
times I think I love him.
- Other times I regret that I
married him ard wish that I was
single again. He has q queer dispo-
sition, becomes moody and pessimistic
when things don't 60 exactly to suit
him. 1t Is almost unbelievable how
upset he gets over q little incident
that any one else would pass over
without q thought. Somehow I can't
make myself cater to his moods and
try to make him snap out Of them.
I am too disguised with his childish
ness. He H very intelligent and has
q position with q promising future. I
work in an ofice. We have Q nicely
furnished apartment. But there
seems to be something lacking, COM
patibility and understanding. Or,
perhaps. 1t Is real love. What shall I
do? Shall I bide my time for another
year and see how things are going?
My husband says ] am spoiled, 80 no
doubt am partly 10 blame for things.
N. q. H.
Auswer-Your case Is not unusual.
Along toward the end Of the hrst year
Of marriage most young husbands and
wives go through . reaction that
makes them regret their marriage and
wish they were single again. The
honeymoon has set. They are fed up
on billing and cooling and surfeited
with kisses. The novelty Of being to-
gether and in their own home has
worn of and they begin to figure on
whether marriage is worth all it cost
and to look at their lost freedom with
longing and to wonder II they really
do care enough about those they are
tied to to stand them and their faults
and little ways for lifetime.
y
IF DIVORCES grew on trees and
we're to be had for the taking,
there wouldn't be many second ved-
ding anniversaries celebrated, but
luckily they do not. Most divorces
are expensive and messy luxuries In
which only the rich and the cinema
stars can indulge freely. 50, more or
less, the married have to stick TO it.
Also, pride comes TO their aid and q
sense Of duty and obligation and good
sportsmanship. So after q few quar-
rels over nothing and q few tears,
most brides and groorns get their sec
ond winds and settle down to making
a 60 Of their marriages.
And their reward is generally in
finding out that If their romantic love
has flown out Of the window, an af-
fection far deeper and more satisfying
has taken its place and they are not
out Of love after all, but really in love
for the first time, and they are not
sorry they married; they are glad Of 1t.
So take for your comfort the fact
that you are just passing through the
usual after-marrisge slump. You will
recover from the depression, but you
can expedite the happy day by per-
forming the act generally known as
pulling yourself up by your bootstraps
u
livery wife has TO do that. Every
woman who makes a success Of
her marriage has to manufacture the
sunshine Of her home and she has to
get along with her husband by deal

your exercise in the morning, when
the temperature is lowest and
vitality highest. Start your day
with a lazy stretch and take it
easy on your way to summer slim
ness. Raise your arms above your
head and stretch, arms pulling
upward and legs downward. Now,
turn over on your side and get
after those spare curves. Twist
and pull until you feel it from
fingertips to toes.
Still relaxed and lazy, pull your
chin in and touch the floor (or
bed) with the back Of your neck.
This helps to flatten out that
cushion that sits on the top of
your spine. Lift your head and
look at your toes. Relax and try
it again.
Slip a pillow under your shoul-
ders-double pillows for double
chins-So that your head hangs
over and moves freely. Tilt your
head back and up, touching the
chin to alternate shoulders. Now
rotate the head in a lazy circle,
not more than half a dozen times.
Relax.

Of Incidence is to make angel
wings. Lying flat on the back,

and lift the bust to normal posi-

To discipline the abdominal
