Beauty
Now Is Time
To Reduce
BY DONNA GRACE

With the summer just around
the corner, I think this is as good
a time as any to extend some help
to both the girls and women who
are fat and those who are not
yet too fat but have tendency to
take on extra weight.
How many of us are just begin
ming to realize that last years
dresses and our bathing suit look
as though they were made for our
younger and smaller sister? Isn't
it true that we have accumulated
this weight throughout the winter
and did not take it seriously until
just now?
Rather than to just become de-
pressed over this, why not avoid
a real accumulation of fat and
muscle which will be very difficult
to lose later on?
We should fight off, immediate
ly, any suggestion of an extra chin
or a layer of fat. This is the time
to use all our will power and begin
reducing.
Exercises and dieting are neces-
sary. 1 have a set of Face and
Neck Exercises, Normalizing Exer-
cises and a Ten-Day Diet which
will help you to regain your
slender figure and enable you to
fit into last years clothes.
1 will be glad to send you the
Ten-Day Diet. You may have the
Normalizing Exercises and the
Face and Neck Exercises if you
enclose a stamped, Self-addresSed,
large envelope for each. Address

Lace Scarfs
For Suits

one of the delightful lace scarfS
that have put in an appearance,
and that. strike such an effective
note in contrast with a simple
skirt and jacket. These scarfs are
made of about a yard and half
of lace, with as fancy a pattern
as you like, and they are simply
strips of the lace about 10 or IL
inches wide, hemmed at the edges.
They can be worn in several
ways, as an ascot scarf, or, and
we think this is most effective, tied
in large bow, with the streamers
falling outside the coat. These
scarfs can be bought ready made,
for around three dollars, or they
are the simplest thing to make
up yourself, if you sew at all. And
of course you have an unlimited
choice of colorS.

this showing attracted plenty of
attention, and that it will leave
its mark on the summer and fall
clothing picture.

Daytime, campus, sportsWear,

summer evening wear were shown.
