Sir John was surprised that we
had land off the starboard bow
and didn't say much. Hours
elapsed before found out why.
Not until ! was able to identify
the flash of Hole in the Wall
light did Sir John extend me con-
gratulations. He told me in con-
fidence that he wouldn't have been
at all surprised if it had been the
coast of Florida and not Great
Abaco island we had sighted.
Next day, with a fair wind
astern, we sailed down North
west Providence channel.
In the lee of Grand Bahama
island the seas were calm and
cooking in the galley was no task
at all. Doug had become so used
to bracing himself, and it was
amusing to see his muscles become
taut for the lurch OF. the ship
and nothing happened.

After a delicious meal of fishcakes
and candied yams. with tea and
gingersnsps, we witnessed a spec

Tiers of clouds spanning the
sky were mirrors rejecting the
afterglow of the ball OF fire.
As the lower rim OF the sun met

bound from Abaco island crossed
the glowing ball of fire. silhouet-

minutes the sun was gone and

After head winds and gales, and

seemed too good to be true TO find
ourselves with a wind dead astern
and a calm sea, clipping off SIX
knots on the last leg Of our cruise

is that we are inclined to get set

sour disposition turns the mouth

Rehearse Gestures

Rehearsing gestures is really
fine practice and should not
be considered as an affectation.
Actresses use their hands and
arms to give expression. So
can every girl if she will stand
or sit before the mirror and
watch the effect.
Well trained hands Will begin
every movement with the wrist
leading. Begin by raising the
arms up high with dropping

gracefully TO fingertips, palms

Just turn palms outward and
with fingertipS, help up.
Let the wrist lead. When
arms are stretched to the side
and down about the waist, drop
gently to extended fingertips.
Bring both forward with palms
}. Do this with various move
ments but always with wrist
leading and you will soon have
control of the arms and hands.

THERE Is well-known
beauty about town who. they
tell me. hasn't smiled for SIX
years now for fear Of getting
wrinkles. But she doesn't look
as if she is having any fun.
Smiling is supposed to use
four major muscles and 10 affect
Il others. Since the pull Is up.
however. it gives your face a lift
which helps 10 counterfeit grav-
ity. l think this cautious beauty
is missing more by not smiling.
Rumor has II. too. that an
exclusive little bridge club is
Just as careful about fTowning.
The members play a strenuous
game and they all sit around
with little triangles Of adhesive
tape - called frownerS - pasted
between their eyebrows TO keep
the wrinkles away while they
concentrate on making those lit
tie slams ~ doubled and re-
doubled.
Not So Silly
That idea isn't as silly as it
may sound. Although frowning
uses fewer muscles than smiling,
frown pulls the muscles down.
Besides. it is usually an express
sion of great intensity and Is
likely TO eteh deeper lines. The
real solution would be 10 learn
to think without frowning.
The lines you get from smiling
merely make you a more attrac-
tive person. One Of the objec-
tons to face-lifting is that it
does away with all the lines
including the nice ones--and
leaves the face with a blank eX-
preston.
Laughter is followed by n nat
ural relaxation of the muscles
and relaxation is the best wrin-
kle preventative ever invented.
If YOU get into a tense situation.
you can always laugh and save
your face.

Acquire Poise


1.-THE and graceful but all IN
necessary movement and mean
ingleSs gestures should be
avoided. Those who do not
control their hands and feet are
seldom graceful. It. is their
lack of poise, usually combined
with self consciousness, that
causes fluttery hands. Zazu
Pitts is the only one who can
do this we'll and she gets a lot
of money for doing it because
it is ludicrous.
Few girls are aware of theil
constant restlessness. They
have made a habit of playing
with their jewelry, looking at
wrist watch, patting their hair,
taking out their mirrors and in
speeding their makeup or doing
all kinds of hand gestures that
are anything but pretty.
Hand movements may help
us to express ourselves but most
of them have a tendency to de-
tract from ones Importance.
The listener becomes bored with
the gestures and loses interest
in the conversation. Some ges-
lures may be interesting and do
give one an added charm but
they are usually well rehearsed
and tried out before done in
public.

Best facial gymnastics are
the up-lift which accompany
grinning, chewing, whistling and

seriously, they will help to keep
your facial muscles in tone.
You might secretly blow up a
