Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-06-13

IF YOUR figure is so bad that
you won't don a swim SUIT.
there won't be any use in telling
YOU this Summer that swimming
is the perfect exercise. But If
| can shame you now into doing
the exercises that will give you
AS lovely a figure as any on the
beach, nobody will have to coax
you to 90 swimming.
Put on your bathing suit and
take a good, critical look at your
figure. You may not be proud
of it, but there is nothing wrong
that cannot be fixed.
What you probably need is a
program that will straighten
your shoulders, strengthen the
midriff muscles, slim the hips
and firm the thighs.
With just a few Of the right
exercises. you can do all that.
If you will start today and do
this set every day for one week,
you will feel so much firmer and
simmer that you will want to
keep on.
Tone Muscles
Start off with an exercise that
tones the muscles of stomach
and hips and reduces both meas
urements. Get down on the
hands and knees on the floor.
Reflexly contract the abdom-
inal muscles and raise alternate
legs backward from the hips,
Strengthening the knees, and
stretching the legs. Repeat five
times, rest, and repeat five more.
Another good exercise for the
midriff calls for a stretching
bar. but you can use a door.
Open the door back against the
wall so IL will be steady
Then stand with right side
against the door, and stretch up
until you can grasp the top of
the door with your right hand
When you have done that,
flex the left knee toward your
chest. and pull il toward you
with the left hand.
Posture Exercise
Stretch and pull for a second
and relax. Repeat three times
on the right side, then turn
about and perform with left
side 10 the door.
Sit down tailor fashion with

Here's a Tricky One

delighted find this question in the De Mile list:
do you dislike other women"
all know many girls and who boast that they
don't like women They usually add especially if there
in the group to which they are speakng) tnat
they always get along better with men.
Well any way you anayze this point of view it's mis-
taken one and shows the need of serious change.
The fact that this very human question is included IN
the questions to be answered means OF course that you
don't like other who won't have the ability TO portray
another the In your life 1t means lot
than that!
