as your past decisions. They
may not have seemed important
decisions at the time. Chances
are they didn't.
Did you put off fixing that
screen door and go to the movies
instead?
Did you stack the dishes and
let them lie until tomorrow
morning? Or slop around the
house in kimono all day because
il was such a nuisance to dress
up?
Barring those who were born
flawed, we are as strong as we
wish 10 be. That wish is not
born in one certain hour at one
certain crisis. II is born with
every impulse. every trivial act
every secret thought.
Those thoughts and deeds may
have seemed trivial to you, but
actually no thought or deed is
trivial or secret. Sooner or later
there will come a supreme chal-
lenge and a final payoff. Then
you will know whether or not
you built yourself a backbone.
Don't envy the strong. de-
cisive chap. Start getting that
way yourself.

SALAD TO serve as the main
dish IT a luncheon, bridge or
evening entertainment should be
refreshing and satisfying. Fro
zen cheese salad filled with
shreds of wholesome cheese. and
pieces of tart fruit is just the
answer.
Why not prepare this frozen
cheese salad for a luncheon or
Sunday night snack? Just add
cubes or julienne strips of
American, domestic Swiss or
sharp cheddar to the salad-the
flavor combination is excellent
and the cheese will add extra

all these excuses"
She is such a gorgeous illus

Dance for Amusement
She is Tony DeMarco's part
ner and besides appearing in
Show Time" they give a num-
Der of other performances about
Manhattan in the course of n
week. And here's proof that
you can learn TO like exercise:
After Sally and Tony have fin
ished a hard days work, they
usually go out and dance for
fun,
Before she took up ballroom
dancing, Sally trained for ballet,
which concentrates on form and
the hard way of doing things.
The same technique is what
makes specific exercise so
streamlining and l second her
suggestion that you pay more
attention to the way you do an
exercise and less TO the number
of times.
She favors a simple set which
takes very little space, less than
Is minutes, and gets wonderful
results:
Try This Set
Stand up and stretch from
your toes to your fingertips.
Elevate your heels, pull your
midriff slim, and raise arms
overhe a d excepting shoulders
down and relaxed), and push up
with top of head, chi level.
Stretch. Relax. and repeat.
Only do the exercise as many
times as you can do il correctly.
2-Stand erect, feet apart,
arms overhead, and stretch.
Then swing down and around to
touch left hand TO right toes.
stretch tall. and swing down to
tuoch left hand TO right toes.
While doing this, keep those
stomach muscles pulled up,
knees straight.
Stand with hands on chair
for support. stretch tall. and
kick backwards. AS you kick,
tense the hip muscles and turn
toes out. as you have seen ballet
dancers do. 10 bring those side
hip muscles into the action.
Take " rs-
Just one more bit of advice.
When you first begin your ex-
ercises. don't be discouraged il
you can't go through the move
ments as easily as a professional
dancer. Only bend as far and
kick as high as you can bend
and kick easily. That lets you
keep your mind on form.
