Because" she said, ''it's your land

In his arms she said it, the word

Macleod shrugged. Now it was

KEEPING THAT
YOUTHFUL Look

Walking with poise, style and au-
thOrity, says our mentor, will do more
than all of your other arts and tricks
put together to create the illusion of
grace. power and youthfulness. For
this, walk tall; suit your strides to the
length of your legs; swing your body
from your hips in ripping but quiet
movements. Put a measured rhythm
in your movements - that is, time
your steps and keep the beat on the
ball of your front foot.
Sitting has its youthful implications
and pictorial importance, too. If you
want to qualify on both counts, you'll
sit up and you'll pose your legs grace
fully. When an actress poses her legs,
she gets nice slanting parallel line
from the knees down.

GALLANT GAMBLE
Continued from preceding poss

A rife spoke. Macleod tensed de-
spite himself Then bold and straight
he stood, unfinching in the crawling
canoe, a target to be shot at. Now
like thunder the angry reports crashed
from shore, lifting anvil echoes from
swamp and forest. And Macleod
stood - and smiled. He turned. To
the covering Iroquois he laughed
aloud. To the shore whence the thun-
der came he pointed, then flung back
his head and roared derisively as a
loon. In the tongue of the Ojibways he
shouted, The fools think to kill US!
Next they'll try to tear down the sun!
Pole ashore! They shall be punished" !"
lHE thunder ceased. He pushed the
big craft shoreward, and from the
dark of the forest came now a sound
of swift things in fight, of mOccasin-
clad feet running in panic.
Sweat ran salty on MacLeod's thin
smile. They'll run far before they
stop" he said. "They won't return"
His pole dipped again. and turned the
craft toward the far shore and his
cabin :. :.
From his beach, later, he watched
the other canoes approaching on his
lake. He waved and was waved at,
and suddenly his hands cupped his
staring eyes; he stretched to his toes
and a name danced on his teeth.
Margaret"
There she stood, a waving slim
fgurehead. the sun spangling her hair
as her voice called him on the wind.
His Margaret! For more than strang-
ers had he made the journey safe!
Macleod stood waist deep in the
water, all arms and humping heart
and laughter. to take her from the
canoe. Before them all he kissed her.
With jaunty disdain he carried her
along the shore.

and have it as often as you can pay

the soothing kind that relaxes you and

Next, keep an eagle eye on your
posture, which is merely a matter of
pulling up slack. You don't need an
actress to tell what a West-Pointer-
erectness can do to slice years off
your looks. But it may be worth while
to remember that, if she wants to

Peggy Wood, of stage
fame. talks frankly of
beauty problems
% %hst11 !8%Me

IF YOU want to elude the grasp of
age. study the technique of the
actress. Her perennial youth - or
what passes for it even under the spot
light --- is part Of her professional
equipment.
"Yet the actress only does what any
woman ought to do - she builds up
her legitimate defenses against age"
says Peggy Wood, the lovely, blonde
star of Broadway's new comedy hit,
"Blithc Spirit" and author of the
popular "How Young You Look" her
book of fascinating memoirs.
To give the impression of youth,
says Miss Wood. you must have vital
ity or fool your public into believing
that you have. But as long as you love
what you are doing, you'll never need
to fake it. It's poverty of interest that
puts dim light in your eyes and slow
motion qualities in your actions. An
actress's passion for the theater ac-
counts for much of the magnetism that
passes for youthfulness.
Your first-line defense against age.
she says, is figure control. which keeps
a waist indented and flanks nicely
flattened. Miss Wood, famed for her
slender grace, is five feet, six and one
half inches tall. and she weighs l28
pounds. When her weight goes over
the edge. she waves aside fattening
food until it returns to bounds. She
swears by only one exercise, and since
she thinks it is something pretty spe-
cial, the chances are you will want to
add it to your repertoire.

Use Lots OF Cream

OSS IOIS Ot SBUV"
10 PRESERVE the youthful aspect of
skin and contour, here is another les
son you can learn from the actress.
Use lots of cream and lots of manipu-
lation. Such care the theater imposes,
since an actress is obliged to use
pounds of grease paint and plenty of
handling to strip off that theatrical
makeup. But look at her firm skin
and we'll -braced contours. and learn
that such practice is good beauty in
surance. Remember this the next time
you remove your makeup with few
meager daubs of cream and a hasty
going-over with tissues. Recall it the
next time you forego the persevering
massage with which your night cream
needs to be applied.
If you are inclined to be a drone
about brushing your hair. here is a
tip from Peggy Wood which may help
to rouse you from your lethargy. Out
of the wild disorder which follows the
Panzer-like attacks of her brush
come most of her ideas for chic, new
hair-dos. Some unexpected line, part
ing or grouping of curls supplies the
inspiration which cooperative hair
dresser promptly proceeds to whip
into shape.
Finally, what has our actress to
say about dress? Her first admonition
is: Don't get into the rut of wearing
black" 1t may be chic and practical
and correct, but you run the risk of
looking like everyone else. When Miss
Wood serves on a committee where all
other women are uniformly garbed in
the correct little black dress. she bios
SONS out in pink or in some other
unpredictable color.
If you want to examine her formula
for chic, here it is: wear simple clothes
and dramatic accessories. She means:
A dashing hat that gets its dash from
outline, not trimming. Exciting gaunt-
let or extravagantly draped gloves.
Big, important bags that could pass,
in a pinch, for pieces of luggage. One
piece of good jewelry which does for
costume what an exclamation point
does for sentence.
