Rubber Drive Ribbers
Get a Surprise
BY LINTON ARKLES

Some time ago. when the rubber
drive started, this reporter and
other reporters began writing
stories about the rubber mats, ash
tray holders and such lying around
in various city, county and federal
offices in Detroit uncollected
by the government.
There was a great deal of rib
bling going around about II and the
favorite press room game was to
pick some official, write a strong
story condemning his lack of patri-
otism and let it fall accidentally
into his hands.
So some one in city hall got
worried the other day and Sneaked
the thick rubber mat from under
his chair and installed it in the
press room.

GLORIFYING
YOURSELF
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Service Staff Writer

Now is the time to do a little
straight thinking about your hands
Probably, they already look
little different from your pre-war
hands, since they undoubtedly have
been buster this year. They will be
taking it at double-quick speed
again, come fall. So, better put
them in shape for it and, even
more important, better take a real
istic inventory on the subject of
wartime hands.
GLAMOR HANDS
ARE DISAPPEARING
There are three simple facts to
consider:
One-The hand that works hard
will show it sooner or later in
size or skin texture or nails; and
the more a hand is denied protec-
tive and reviving care, the more it
shows its industry.
TWo-The hand that frankly
says, Il don't work." is certainly
not the one to flaunt fashionably
nowadays, until it belongs to a
woman whose ornamental charms
have some reason besides them
selves for being. The glamor mani
cure, with nails extended beyond
possible usefulness, is now out
Beauty fashion, as well as wartime
living, says the smart hand is the
competent-looking hand.
Three-Competent hands, and
working hands, can and do look
interesting, well groomed, and
graceful, when they get their daily
quotient of correct care.
Exercise is part of that care. It's
the exercise that busy hands get
which makes it possible for good

tractive. So you might put down as
a beauty asset the type-Writing

EXERCISING WILL
INSURE NEW GRACE

II you 90 one OF those, or IL
you mteely use your hands at
heavy tasks, you will find these ex-
ercises useful for getting them and
keeping them flexible and grace
full:
Place elbows on a table and let
the arms and hands rest comfort
ably, palms down, and imagine.y you
are playing the piano. Lift the Night
hand from the wrist, hold high,
and let it come down as if you were
striking a big chord. Repeat five or
six times. Then lift each finger
separately, high, and bring it down
vigorously. Repeat with left hand.
Now clasp the hands, elbows and
palms up, fingers intertWined. Bring
the elbows down as fast as they
will go, keeping the hands claSped
You will feel pressure through the
fingers-that's what fleXeS them
beneficially. Relax and repeat half
a dozen times.
Squeezing a ball-rubber used to
be the prop, but a ball of yarn
or any soft, but not-toosoft round
object will serve develops the
muscles of hands and fingertips,
makes hands quicker and more
alert. Grasp the ball firmly in each
hand, press in deeply, and release,
Continue for several minutes. An
other exercise, which also relaXes
the whole hand, is simply shaking
them smartly from the wrist, as if
they were wet and you were drying
