a healthy sun tan, and that her
swimming muscles and tennis mus
cles are in very good shape, and that
no one, by the greatest twist of his
imagination could figure that she
was in any way unable to support
her own body, she feels q bit foolish
at being helped around. 1t is as

Firm Bustline
to
Good Figure
Rounded Shoulders
Can Be Corrected
With Exercises
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Since the American woman has
become figure conscious, a firm,
high bust line has been the fashion.
AS well it should, for if one stands
in good posture with abdomen in
and shoulders back, the bust line
naturally is lifted to normal full
position. Far more appealing is the
figure with high, firm bust line,
slender waist and fiat abdomen,
than that with sagging breasts Sit
ting on a protruding stomach.
Many girls write and ask, How
can I enlarge my bust line?" or,
How can I firm my pectoral mus
cles?'
Good posture is essential to
natural, firm bust line and that
means all you girls with rounded
shoulders must get busy and
straighten them! Business women
who sit long hours at a desk and
many housewives have round shoul-
ders. This happens because they
seem to rest" on their stomachs and
do not exercise daily.
Schoolgirls permit their shoul-
ders to round from sheer laziness.
They slouch as they walk and sit
and thus permit their breasts to
sag and their pectoral muscles to
grow flabby. Every woman should
make a conscious effort to sit
and stand erectly, especially young
women, for that keeps the pectoral
muscles as well as the abdomen in
place.
AS round shoulders come from the
abnormal stretching of certain back
muscles and the tightening of front
chest muscles, due to a poor slump
ing posture, it is necessary to ex-
ercise so the back muscles be
tightened and the front muscles
stretch to normal length.
To tighten back muscles: Keeping
your abdomen and hips still, bend
your head as far back as you can,
making an arch with the small OF
your back. Remember not to move
your hips. Do this very slowly until
you feel the muscles of your lower
spine contracting. Relax to normal
position and repeat exercise six
times.
To loosen and stretch front mus
cles: Stand perfectly still and grow
tall from the waist. This is done
by raising your chest higher and
higher until you feel like a cocky
pigeon. Your head grows tall at
the same time as you stretch your
neck upward. 1t is hard to describe
in words but get up and do it. A
marvellous feeling of relieved tension
comes to your body as you stretch
upward as far as you can. Relax
and repeat six times. Gradually
you will firm those hitherto unused
muscles until they will hold your
bust line high.
suggest that you do these two
exercises religiously for one month
and every day of your life be con-
scious of improving your posture.
Walk and sit and dance with a proud
sir. You want to be beautiful, don't
you? Well, then show the world
that you have beautiful figure and
that you are mighty proud of what
nature gave you! Shyness or timid-
ity are enemies to beauty-be proud
in your carriage. my lassies, but be-
comingly humble in your heart!

Dorothy Dix Says >>~
People Are Never Old as Long
AS They Seek New Interests

She writes: "This morning I
awoke to face terrible situation.
For it was my birthday and there I
was 20 years, old and an old maid.
A shudder of horror crept down my
spine as I realized my predicament.
I could not get away from the cold,
hard facts.
my friends were all in college
or married and I was not in COL
lege, not married, not even en-
gagged and 20 years old. The irony
of it all is that I don't feel old.
Why, I enjoy life. I want to travel,
60 places and do things and meet
people and have a good time be-
fore I settle down to marriage and
children.
But I'm going along in age and
I am afraid that if I don't grab my
first chance at a husband it may
be my last. Should I take Mr.. Any
body or wait for Mr.. Right to come
along?"
Aged at 20l An old maid at 20!
How many of us will smile at that
naive point of view of age. Yet we
have all held it. We can all re-
member when we thought any wom-
an of 20 was so old that she should
climb up on the shelf and make
way for young people.
We wondered what any one of 30
could possibly find of pleasure and
interest to do that made them still
cling to life, while as for the old
gaffers of 40 it seemed almost in
decent for them to still cumber the
world.
Yet when we reached these ad-
vanced periods in life we found we
had just begun to live and that life
was far richer and had far more
SAVIOR than it had in our adolescent
days.
So I offer this comfort to my
correspondent and also the assur-
ance that she need not because of
her advanced age rush to the altar
with the first man who pops the
question to her. Her matrimonial
chances for the next 10 years will
not only be greater, but she will be
more likely to make a happy mar
riage because she will bring to the
selection of q husband the knowl-
edge of Life and men thst only time
can teach her.
Evening star., 1940-08-30

What Is age? When are we old?
A wit has said that any one who
is 10 years older than we are is old.
And perhaps that is just as good a
definition as any. Certainly we
can't measure age by the number
of candles on our birthday cakes,
for many people are born old. They
are virtually senile in their cradles.
They never have young thought,
a young impulse, young emotion
during their entire lives, while other
men and women never grow old, no
matter how long they live. In their
Dos and 90s they are still mere
lads and lassies. OF course, time
takes its toll of all of us. Our good
looks 90 with the years. We acquire
feather-bed or string-bean figures.
Our eyes dim and our joints creak
at the hinges. And if our hearts
and souls have hardened along with
our arteries we are old. But II we
have still kept alive our interests
In things, our curiosity about what's
coming next, our hopes, our enthusl-
asms and our faith in life, we are
still young, no matter how our out
ward appearance bellies it.
So I think we are young JUST as
long as we can change our minds
and plant out new apple orchards,
and we are old when we begin talk
ing about the good old days ana
shut out from our minds every IDEA
that isn't a veritable antique ana
begin asking what's the use. But II
age is a misfortune to man IL is
a tragedy to a woman. For the
theory has always prevailed that IL
was the duty of the feminine sex
to remain perpetually young and
this effort to look and act 16 after
they were so has been the cause of
great suffering to women and made
them commit mary follies.
So it is even more important for
women to know when they are old
than it is for men to know when
they are, and it is an even more
difficult question to settle because
their age is one Of the secrets thev
do not even tell themselves. How
ever, one young woman answers the
old question "how old is Ann" in
this fashion.

lost and the gilt surface on the
others is wearing off. I am having

really makes so great difference in
the quality of the finished product.
We hope that you will try them both,
any comments to make on either or
both, you will drop us a line and
give us your reaction.
The first cake utilizes lard, and
the second a vegetable shortening.
The lard advocate says:
You will notice the recipe given
suggests lard as the shortening.
There are several reasons for this
choice. Lard is a very economical
fat. 1t is smart to take advantage
of the economy it affords, when, at
the same time, it will give you quail
= ity in your products. You will find
that cakes made with lard are very
delicious, they have an excellent
] texture, and they retain their fresh
ness, fact which every homemaker
appreciates.
In making cakes, every step is
important - ingredients, measuring
. mixing, and baking. When lard is
used as the shortening, a few slight
variations from the conventional
method of combining ingredients are
suggested.
To make the shortening cream
more easily, add two tablespoons OF
milk to the lard and three-fourths
of the sugar. The other fourth of
the sugar is reserved to add to the
u-1oitnc yrrI0jPh o6dpH
last. This gives a meringue-ike
mixture which produces lighter
cake with larger volume.
If recipe calls for egg yolks, they
should be dropped into the milk and
stirred thoroughly. Since lard is an
unsalted fat, it is necessary to add
salt.
The flour and other ingredients
are added alternately with the milk
in the conventional way, and the
beaten egg whites with the remain
ing part of the sugar are folded in
last.
