Vary Routine

This one exercise coufd almost
be counted upon to solve your
hip problems. but If you didn't
vary your routine occasionally,
IL would tend TO lose its effectiv-
ness. Besides. you may need a
more active streamliner for the
gluteus maximus muscles on the
backs Of the hips.
a very effective and not strenu-
Gus exercise is 10 lie face down
ward on the floor. arms up on
floor overhead. legs straight
down. Holding legs straight,
raise first the left. then the
right, leg high in air from the
hip. Hold for a second and
slowly lower 10 the floor.
Alternate for 10 counts for the
first few days, then increase
gradually until you are doing
so. Those two exercises will
make an excellent beginning for
YOUR hip Slimming.

WOmen's Editor, The Detroit Times

"A SHAFT OF afternoon Cali
fornia sunshine illumined the
figure of a man sitting on the
edge Of an eXquisitely hand
painted bed. Except for two bat
tered kitchen chairs, the room
was completely bare. No carpet.
No curtains. Nothing.
The lord Of this empty do
main was clothed in a shabby
dressing gown. A cigaret
burned between his first and
second finger. His feet were en-
cased in a pair of well-worn
slippers"
And there you have John
Barrymore as he is today, ac-
cording 10 Alma Power-Waters.

published by Julian Messner,
Inc.
The loneliest man in the
world. says the author she
practically has you crying tears
in your coffee, as she takes you
down through the years.
Barrymore Temperament
It's the Barrymore tempera-
ment, for certainly the gentle
man had a flying start spring
ing as he did from a long line Of
artists such as the Barrymores
and the Drews.
Handsome tad, too, always
popular with the ladies. His
first love was the beautiful
Evelyn Nesbit the only
woman he ever proposed TO, he
says, declaring that all the rest
married HIM.
But il was the lovely kath-
crime Harris whom he first mar
ried. TO the CONSERVATION Of her
family. She would never be
happy, they said. and they were
right.
Wife No. z
Then along came the bright
and shining Michael Strange.
She already had a husband, of
course, but what's an extra hus-
band When love starts raising
Cain and so they tripped a
light fantastic TO the altar.
Michael wrote a play for him
and had baby :. then promptly
fell in love with poet and that
was that.
John took his broken heart
abroad where he had fun and
then he made for Hollywood
where he fell in love with Do
lores Costello. Their courtship
lasted year and a half, waiting
for John TO be free.

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 28.-Delegate
John S. White of Prince Georges
County today denied reports that
his bill to authorize 207 scholarships
to the University of Maryland had
any connection with State aid given
other institutions.
His bill, similar to one introduced
in the Senate by Senate President
Arthur H. Brice was interpreted in
some quarters as an attempt in
spired by President H. c. Byrd of
the university to bring up the whole
question of State aid to private in
stitutions.
The budget now includes appro-
priations totaling $542,0 900 for six
private schools, in return for which
AIS scholarships are granted, most
ly by legislators.
Mr.. White said his measure was
introduced after he talked with Dr.
Byrd, but that it was intended to
superseded two bills introduced ear
lier in the session. One proposed
to establish So scholarships at the
university's college for Negroes at
Princess Anne and another would
provide 29 scholarships at the COL
lege of medicine at Baltimore, all
to be awarded by State Senator'S.
DR.. Byrd's objection to the ear
lier bills was that the scholarships
would include board aS we'll as tlri-
ton, Mr.. White explained. More
over the medical school, which had
an S85,00O deficit last year, has a
waiting list of students willing to
pay for tuition.
THE bill I introduced" Mr.. White
said, would encourage Maryland
students to come to their own State
university and would be more prac-
tical from a financial viewpoint
than the others now before the
Legislature"

in Calvert County.
The question is whether or not
dogs will be licensed.
Senator j. Wilmer johnson has
introduced a bill to eliminate the
dog tax in this county-$1 for males
and 50 for females.
The county's Advisory Game
Council opposes such move and
offers what it says is a simple solu-
ton. Keep the license law in ef-
feet, they say, and enforce it.
The only trouble with the tax,
says the council, is that dog owners
