gotten by the folks back home.
With enemy planes reported off
our shores both on the Pacific and
Atlantic and every man in the
larmed service of the nation
standing ready for action, the need
for Christmas boxes for these
service men has been doubled.
HELD AT STATIONS
Thousands of Detroit young men
in the army. navy and marine
corps who otherwise would have
had furloughs TO spend Christmas
with their families will probably
be held at their stations. These
as we'll as those who have nc
folks to send them boxes, are the
ones the Santa Claus for Service
Men" must see are remembered
on Christmas Day.
A Christmas box for every
service man from this area is the
slogan of The Detroit Times Santa
Claus for Service Men" campaign
Let it not be said that the people
back home were quite willing to
wave the American flag but lacked
the hearts big enough to pack a
gift box to send to a service
imam.
Every one wants to show his
patriotism in times like these

Strenuous Exercise

The gymnastics are far from
being sissified. Here is a sam
pie: Squat down on the right
knee. with left leg thrust
out at side. Now shift weight
from right knee 10 left, squat
ting on it with other leg thrust
out to side. The hitch, you will
discover. is in having the feet
far enough but not too far apart
and in keeping the feet parallel.
While doing this, OF course, you
are supposed to hold your back
nice and straight.
Another of her favorites is to
lie on the back on the floor and
reach" one leg straight up in
the air. keeping the other flat
down on the floor. AS you reach
up with the leg, keep pushing up
with the hips and arching the
back until you are as high as
you can 90 with that foot. Rest,
and repeat with other leg.
Massage or Roll
You can do quite a few exer-
cises of that kind in half an
hour-if you work. And Rise
likes to top off with massage. If
you cannot manage that. how
ever. you can do rolling exer-
cises which give superb results.
The windup to Rises gymnastics
is a good floor massage. Just
lie full length and roll, over and
over. first in one direction, then
in the other.

massage on the hipline, lie on
