Reduce Bulky Legs
With Simple Exercises

How unkind are today's short
skirts to the girl whose legs are
thick, over large! And If she's not
heavy otherwise she's apt to think
their bulkiness is a natural defect
that nothing can be done about it.
Actually, with the right exercises
it's possible to reduce knees and
calves to shapely slimness.
Here's simple routine that acts
on the muscles of the legs and trims
down fatty pads. Then good-by to
unsightly bulgesl
Stand with feet IS inches apart,
arms out to side. Bending both
knees, turn on ball Of right foot and
bend right knee so that 1t almost
touches the floor at the instep Of
the left foot. Repeat to opposite
side, turning on ball Of left foot.
Repeat 8 times. Rest. Do Is times

member your body is largely what

smile and Juniors sinartest tricks
seem inadequate to make up for
those dear lost days when she was
so popular and pretty.
Now I must give some very sharp
advice. Don't let 1t get you. The
way you take this period of So
called drudgery Is the real criterion
Of your character. Don't try to pic
ture q heaven you lost, but one you
are working toward.
I have known many, many peo-
pie in my life of all kinds and con-
ditions. Women with large families
and small means, and others with
no families and large means.
After a few years, this latter class
have been more unhappy generally
speaking, of course, than the former,
unless they could fill their time seri-
ously with work and an unselflsh
interest In the lives Of others.
CHILDREN ARE
WHAT COUNT
You may not know it, for you are
still so young, but actually you will
remember with pride these lovely
days, for they are lovely, when you
were starting young lives on the way
TO big things ahead. But even when
the laurels are won, you will still be
telling people all about the baby's
teeth and Juniors tonsils. Your
heart is actually living in these little
mites and 1t always will. To you
they will never grow up.
Compared to them. soft light and
dancing, music and mirth, a per-
fectly appointed house and dreams
of prolonged honeymoon must,
fear, retreat. And your husband
must learn to look at 1t this way,
too. He has to realize that you can
not always be his beautiful siren,
but regard you in a still more beau
tiful role, that Of wife and mother.
There Is a long, better honey
moon" ahead. Be patient. Be hap
py, and smile when you can remem-
Der to do so.
Sincerely yours,

@. What causes mold or fermen-
tation in jelly?
A. This often results from stor-
age in a warm or damp place. The
best paraffln seals and tin friction
top lids are not adequate protection
unless the jelly is kept cool and
dry. If moisture collects beneath
the paraffin, 1t may break the seal
and permit the entrance of molds
and yeast spores. If the jelly must
be stored In warm or a moist at
mosphere, it should be in a con-
tainer made alright with a rubber
or a composition gasket. Other
causes of spoilage are failure to
sterilize the glasses and imperfect
sealing with paraffin.
Q. How may remove printed
lettering from -four, salt, and sugar
sacks?
A. Soak the bags in kerosene
roll them tightly together, and lay
aside for "a hours. Then put the
sacks in cold water, and rub until
the designs are removed. Finally,
wash the sacks in heavy suds. Sue
oes of this method depends partly
on the kind Of ink used on the sack
Sometimes the last traces of ink are
removed by boiling the material for
half an hour after 1t has been
scrubbed with soap and hot water.

Dig Through Foot Of

Used to SoIvoge

PALMER, Alaska, Oct 11-Colon-
lists in the Governments Matanuska
Valley project turned to dog teams
and snowshoes today to salvage
what they could of their crops after
a severe snOwstorm and cold wave
which created the most serious crop
situation since the colony was
formed more than four years ago.
The Midwestern farmers who
came here to escape dust and heat
were unable to estimate the untold
damage" from the sudden and un-
expected snowfall of IL to 18 inches
Sunday. The temperature lowered
around 10 degrees above zero, and
there was no letup in sight.
Only a small portion of grain had
been harvested; about 80 per cent
was in shocks in the field or uncut.
Garden Produce Unharvested.
Acres, OF market garden produce
were caught unharvested. Fields of
cabbage were blowing bare and
AlCCAA1lS S"ACly.
Farmers expected the first snow
would melt, but a sharp drop in
| temperature froZe some snow that
had melted and a thin layer of ice
began forming on the ground.
Mrs. Harry Duff, wife of colon
ist, hitched her dog team to a sled
and struggled through the snow
digging potatoes which were still
unfrozen.
One field of cabbage was harvest
ed in part by colonists who went out
on snoWshoes.
One farmer had IS acres of hay
uncut; it's loss would mean a feed
shortage for livestock Other colon
lists each had 10 acres of grain fat
tened by the snow. Even the COL
ony's experimental farm was dam
aged.
Many colonists were depending on
the return from their crops tc meet
obligations. Discouraged over the
new turn OF events. some gave up
hope for a harvest and left for the
forest to hunt.
The colony, established by the
Government for rehabilitation Of
stranded populations, expected to
harvest the biggest crop in its his
tory this season in the fertile valley.
Large Livestock Business.
The land is especially suitable to
the growth of hay, potatoes, cabbage,
carrots, turnips, rutabagas, beets,
radishes onions, parsley, lettuce,
spinach and other vegetables. In
addition to crops, the colony has
a large livestock and dairy business.

Apart from other considerations,
Finland is fighting to keep from
falling back into the hands of the
Russians, from whom they escaped
on the collapse of the Czarist regime
in 1917. For one thing, they are
terrified of the spread Of Com
munism.
It was this same fear of Com
munism, held not only by Finland
but the small Baltic states OF
Estonia and Latvia, which was the
chief stumbling block in the ill-fated
negotiations between the Anglo
French allies and Russia for q
mutual assistance pact just before
the Soviet signed up with Hitler.
Russia inisted that the independence
of these three countries be guaran-
teed as a condition for partner
ship with England and France.
The trio in question-all of which
were carved out of Russian territory
after the World War-rejected
guarantees. The point was that
they were afraid such guarantees
might result in Russian occupation
Of their territories. They figured
that would mean Sovietizing of the
countries and the end Of indie
pendence.
