Exercises

Begin With Simple

Movements.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

THINK an introduction to exercise
ought to be pretty much like an
introduction to stranger You
wouldn't get too friendly at the first
or second meeting, would, you? You'd
maintain \ certain aloof dignity-"go
slow" for a while.
So let it be with exercise. II you
really have been completely inactive
for some months (or longer period)
take it very easy at first until you are
completely accustomed to exercise.
After a slothful Winter and with
the approach of Summer, women begin
to think of how their figures will ap-
pear on the bathing beaches Many
are impelled to begin to exercise in
order to hide that bulge at the waist,
the over-padded hips, the flabby
"uppers." Heavy Winter coats cover a
multitude OF curves, but Summer
dresses are Interviewing. This, then,
Is the season when the woman leaps
to the middle Of the room before
breakfast, and with the window wide
open begins her daily dozen.
Being human she desires to reach
her goal in one or two attempts, for
getting that muscles long unused will
not suddenly become supple. The
usual result Is that after the second
days exercise our heroine cannot raise
her arms without reproaciful creak-
ings. The sports writer's call wrestlers
the "grunt and groaners" and this
we'll describes the woman who exer-
cises not wisely. but too well.
To begin a series of exercises, one
must proceed slowly. For the first
week Of your introduction no attempt
should be made to put any strain on
muscles long unaccustomed to such
treatment. Simple limbering up move
ments are the only things permitted
II there is any warning twinge at all,
any pain. days rest Is indicated.
Begin by bending from the waist
with arms extended. Try to touch
the floor. Keep knees unbent. Don't
strain yourself to touch the floor,
however. The chances are you won't
be able to do it the first few times,
and then suddenly you'll find yourself
| timber. Ten times Is the maximum
for first attempt. Then-l0 easy
bends to each side-no strain, re-
member. And five knee bends-squat-
ting done cautiously. Then five deep
breaths at the beginning and end Of
this simple routine. That's all. And
It's a fine introduction. paving the
way for more intimate acquaintance.
more strenuous exercises the second
week. OF course, II you are in good
physical shape and timber this routine
can be used to introduce each days
set OF exercises.

OF course. the teacher could have
stormed instead of explaining. He
could have demanded in loud and out
ragged tones why his orders had not

that the leader had made a mistake

orders had reason behind them and
proved his right to be obeyed. The
leader felt ashamed Of his plight, and
instead of resenting the teachers
orders and attitude felt new respect
for them. The experience taught him
something, strengthened the teachers
authority. made class spirit finer.

a deal of trouble.
Any attitude that expresses selfish
ness. authority for authority's sake
force for the feeling of power over
another, is bound to bring out re-
sistance. What is needed is co-opera-
ton. Anything else Is waste.
How much of such waste there is In
homes and schools we can only guess
at from the casual experiences that
come to us who have to do with chill
dren. Sometimes a school stops work
because Of feud between q teacher
and . family whose children attend
the school. Whole communities have
been stirred into excitement and en-.
nifty because some one felt his au-
thority sighted, or his pride hurt. The
elders outdo the children in childish
ness.

sonally. Don't let feeling mix the brew
Of anger that will bring healthy, help

Dorothy Dix Says
Age Makes Little Difference in Marriage
When Other Conditions Are Riqht.

and he is pretty sure to lose It for
his elderly wife. But If man Is past
his first youth, if he Is fully grown
up and settled in his tastes and hab-
its. then he is safe matrimonial bet
for woman, even if she has had
few more birthdays than he has.
He knows what he wants in a wife
and If he picks out one older than
he is 1t is because she has the quail
ties he admires. Maybe it is because
he Graves to be mothered. Maybe 1t is
because he finds the mature woman
more congenial and interesting as a
companion than flighty young girl.
Maybe it is because he wants . wife
who is an experienced homemaker in
stead Of f1apper to whose untender
mercies he will have to surrender his
pocketbook and his digestion. Maybe
1t is because his guardian angel whis-
pers in his car that there are no such
husband-spoilers as the old wives Of
young husbands.
Anyway, whatever the reason. the
man in his thirties who marries a
woman older than himself knows what
he is about and he seldom regrets his
bargain. And let it not be forgotten
than in many cases a woman at As
reaches the pinnacle of her attractions
and is far more alluring than any
bread-and-b miss.
The danger in your marriage is not
the difference in ages, but the diff
ference in taste. Because, If you are
jealous Of your fiance's books, you are
evidently not addicted to reading. And,
believe me, sister, any woman who
tries to come between the man who
has the reading habit and the printed
page is going to lose out, whether shs
is II or 10.

shrinkage In hot weather, which Is
very apt to warp the frame.
r JUGS present another problem 10
the housewife, whether to take
them up or leave them down! Per-
sonally, I prefer to take them up as
have theory that Winter rugs hold
the heat and besides, they certainly
don't look very cool! Unless one has
staff of servants who will carefully
vacuum clean the rugs frequently, il
is definitely better to take them up.
Moths have a field day during the
Summer months, especially in house
that is kept closed during the day TO
keep the heat out. They may nibble
on the rug to their hearts content in
the dark, without anyone ever notic-
ing them, until it is too late
Many of the local stores have
marvellous selections of Summer rugs
to suit any taste or size room; they
are inexpensive and will last for
several seasons.
The Suraka- -Sisal rug, which is one
Of the most durable and is reversible,
may be had in stripes plaids or plain
and comes in lovely colors. This may
also be ordered by the yard and then
cut and fringed to fit an odd-size
room. One of the most inexpensive
is the fiber rug, which comes usually
in plaid and is extremely popular
this season. The Mozourk is made
from coco fiber and is imported from
British India and Belgium 1t comes
in brilliant hues, with a large, mod
ernistic floral design.
One Of the smartest is the Indian
dru8et, which is soft in coloring and
has Indian figures This is made Of
wool and would be very attractive on
the sun porch, even in the Wintertime.
Any Of the rugs made from rush are
good, and one Of the most attractive
is in block design. The latter may
be made up in any two colors desired
and in any size. This rug is not in
jured by water. so is excellent on a
porch or in the front hall, where wet
feet may tread
For early American and Colonial
homes there are lovely soft, colortul
hand-hooked rugs, square or oval, in
various sizes, of Aubusson design and
colors. A local shop carries the
hooked rug in the authentic Cape Cod
pattern, which has in the pattern the
ship, clock, spinning wheel. anchor,
bellows, horseshoe. hour glau and
horn of plenty.

He HHS 20 rise Unen ne sees
a lady standing.
A GIRL who jumps up every half
minute to adjust the flowers on
the mantel or to straighten out the
curtains Just shouldn't be allowed to
mingle with men who believe in rising
whenever a lady stands. It's too
strenuous.
Personally, we'd be inclined to feel
that after man has risen once for
us during one call he's done his duty
by our Nell. Then if we want to jump
up to watch the fire engine 60 by we'd
just as soon he'd keep his seat without
being told to. We even like to stand
up once in a while to talk . when
we get really excited. And if all our
man friends are going to get up with
us 1t won't be so much fun. (They
aren't going to, so heaven knows why
we are getting SO stirred up.)
But to get down to basic things.
There's just no sense in mans taking
the old rule so literally. Maybe the
girls ought to say. after the first
rising: Don't get up. I'm apt to be
bobbing up and down all the time,
and I'd be much more comfortable,
If you'd stay where you are 1t
would be the truth. at least, and that's
something like progress. JEAN.
