TODAY we start on a new
series of exercises, exercises
that do not concentrate on any
particular part of the body, but
are designed for the general de-
velonment of grace, beauty and
charm. But before 1 give you the
exercise, ] have a few words l
should like to say on various sub
jects-subjects having nothing to
do with the exercises l have been
giving you.
Routine is a strange thing. We
must court it in some things, alb
hor it in others. Exercises, to
have any value at all, must be
done in a strict routine. Exercises
must be taken at the same time
= every day, in definite periods
Here is routine that is necessary
But in some other aspects of life,
routine must be avoided less we
become dull.
Complete concentration on the
development of physical charm is
wrong. 1t leads to dullness, to
sameness, to a definite lack of
the charm we SO desire. The in
tellectual side is important. 1t is
wrong, for example, to avoid

General Exercise Routine
Must Be Followed Daily
oFor Satisfactory Results

meeting new people. OF course,
the old friends, tried and true,
must not be neglected.
Every person has a different
mental outlook, so each new per-
son that we meet has something
to offer. Their opinions on a given
subject will be vastly different,
perhaps, from our own. But for
that very difference they give us
fresh viewpoints from which to
view life. They stimulate and re-
fresh the mind.
So keep a definite routine for
your exercising and for the pres
ervation of your health. But for
your intellectual side, avoid rou-
tine. Keep yourself mentally on
tiptoe!
Exercise No. 1 of the new
series:
Sit on a chair, sideways. Put
your feet under heavy object
so you can keep them down. Place
hands on hips. Bend back as far
as you can. Return to first posi-
ton, then bend forward as far as
possible. Repeat five times the
first day and add a count each
day. After the first few days you
should be able to touch the floor
with your head.

snow plows and galoshes of the
frozen North. For cruise travel
or desert resorts, pictured on this
page are three designs destined
for Southern wanderings and
sunny decks.
Conjuring up visions of sun
drenched decks and Southern
skies is the classic spectators
dress pictured here. Resort things
also forecast the popularity of
linen for spring, as does this
model of blue linen combined
with the white linen shirt-maker
blouse. The little visored jockey
cap that shades the eyes and has
no crown, but keeps ones tresses
from flying to the four winds, is
the fayorite headgear Of the
smart spectator. The brown-and-
white pumps that are indispen-
sable, complete the outfit.
Shorts are not so short any
more, and some are full as a
skaters skirt. No longer shorts,
they reach almost to the knee

FORTUNATE tourists and re-
sorters who go to stay where
summer winters" are turning to
colorful garb to express their holi-
day mood. Those less fortunate
are getting their travel vicariously
by donning fashions gayest
clothes, slightly adjusted to the
atmosphere of city streets and
crowded thoroughfares.
There is, for instance (for the
beach,, the bright bandannas
worn by smart women, taking the
Georgia Mammals greatest asset
and converting it into a chic
headgear. Those staying at home
have reverted to the more con-
ventional and are wearing bright
shiny straw hats with perky gay
feathers and flowers and maybe
a gossamer nose veil thrown in
for good measure.
It's escape, pure and simple,
this getting away from all the

caps. Schiaparelli designed the
one shown here. The shorts are
of dusty pink or coral corduroy,
topped by black linen blouse
THE Stars and Stripes For
ever" is the color motto of many
designers as long as black and
white pictures hold their place in
the sun. The red, white and blue
is carried out in the bandanna
linen blouse of the other blue
denim shorts with it's little bolero
jacket.
Another chic model for the re-
sorts that was seen was a most
charming dress of a silk crepe of
small, splashy flowers of rose and
mustard yellow on white, which
is worn with a coarse white linen
jacket. The latter has rather wide
revers and a collar bound in the
silk, and four vertical slot pock-
cts similarly bound, the pockets

clip stems, and put through food
chopper using coarse knife. Soak
agar in water 15 minutes, then
melt in double boiler (requires
about Is minutes). Strain agar
over the sugar and two-thirds the
corn syrup. Cook to 200 F. Re-
move from fire and add remain
ing corn syrup. Allow mixture
to become cool, about 1000 F. Add
citric acid and fruits and mix
thoroughly, Pour into wax paper
lined pan. When set, remove pa
per and cut into desired shapes.
Roll in granulated sugar or dip in
chocolate. Candy cuts better II
allowed to set overnight.
Note: One cup chopped un-
cooked prunes may be substituted
for an equal portion of the fruit.

her list. Thus she leaves herself
free to attend to 'last-minute de-
tails of preparing and serving re-
freshments and seeing to it that
her guests are supplied with Gig
arettes, ash trays and that the
changing of partners goes off
without a hitch. The hostess also
establishes the kind of bridge to
be played, the system of chang
ing partners and the method of
scoring.
The hostess first duty toward
her guests is to provide proper
equipment. This, as everyone
knows, consists of sturdy table
of the correct height, four COM
Portable chairs, two decks of new
cards, ash trays, a score pad and
sharp pencil. Do be careful, too,
that the lighting is good. There
is nothing more disturbing thap
having a room too dim, or to
have a light shining directly in
some players face.
Much can be said about the eti-
quette of the bridge player. Most
of it can be written in one word
CONSIDERATION. There is
nothing more maddening than the
very slow player-or the one who
explains all his plays. One should
be prompt, pleasant and noiseless
but most of all, courteous. A
very famous bridge authority
once said, mot everyone can play
a fau1tless game; but everyone is
certainly capable of the highest
degree of etiquette and courtesy
and these two things go far
toward making up for any lack
of skill"

THE outstanding social game of
the hour seems to be bridge.
No matter whether some of us
loathe it or not--We all should be
able to play it-that is, if we
want to be popular That is why
it is important that the up-to-date
hostess know how to conduct a
bridge party, to be prepared at
any and all times with the knoWl-
edge and equipment necessary to
entertain her friends successfully
\ at bridge.
No one should venture to enter
tain at bridge, nor accept bridge
invitation, who cannot play the
game more than passably well.
Don't go out into public until you
can do more than play at the
game!
1t is not enough that the host
ess provide only four well-matched
players, cards and a score pad and
pencil. Before the evening or
afternoon game starts, there are
several things that the thought
full hostess must attend to before
she can be assured of a perfect
party. Unless she has a great deal
of room at her disposal, it is far
better to have comfortable
group of only four players than
several crowded, noisy and un-
happy tables.
When there is but one table of
bridge, the hostess almost always
plays, but when there are two or
more tables, she generally does
not include herself in making up

Long Range Naval Planes Soon Due

Not a word has been heard
since last Wednesday to indicate
whether Miss Earhart and her fly

radio experts believed might have
come from the plane were car

stations.
These signals, last of an inter

established as being from the Ear

Gus signals purportedly coming
from the filters, were authentic.
The last authentic signal was
