The key to correct posture,
Harry Conover teaches his mag

ance.
In walking, the calf muscle
should be put in play constantly
to help develop shapley calf.
High heel shoes give the calf
muscle little or no exercise. So a
sensible low heel shoe is needed
to help relax the legs.
The much publicized model drill
of walking with a book balanced
on the head is not as silly as it
sounds. Such an exercise teaches
perfect balance and erect posture,
which becomes more difficult
when the body is in motion.
Strides that are too long or too
short throw the body off balance.
Walk naturally, gracefully and
with ease.
When ascending or descending
the stairs you will appear to bet
ter advantage if you can manage
without leaning on the handrail.
Look ahead of you: You will in
vite dizzyness if you watch your
feet. When walking down the
stairs never look back while you
are moving forward. 1t might be
extremely dangerous, as well as
ungainly.
A straight, balanced stance is
the only acceptable one for cor.
rect poise. Careless leaning
against walls or furniture gives
a sloppy appearance. Stand firm.
ly on your two feet, with chest
high, stomach in, legs together.
When sitting it is preferable
to keep both feet on the floor.
This not only gives better bal.
ance, but it also avoids showing
too much leg. In occupying a
chair, girl must retain the same
balanced posture she employs
when standing or walking. When
the legs are crossed, they should
be crossed at the ankles rather
than at the knees. If you must
cross your legs at the knees, be
sure that your skirt remains at
respectable level below the

pick out her own fruits and vege-
tables she would weigh and pinch
and criticize and say Haven't
you any ripper bananas than
these?"
And she was always Dragging
to her husband about how she
called up her butcher and bawled
him out for sending her what she
thought was a poor cut of meat,
always adding, ''He might as well
know he can't put anything over
on me-
And if a head Of lettuce, when
delivered, wasn't as fresh as she
thought is should be, she would
call up her grocer and ask him to
pick it up before dinner and leave
her another one.
She was plenty Independent In
those days. Her attitude was:
''You have to let them know you
won't accept anything but the
best"
TIMES HAVE CHANGED
But have you noticed how
changed her tune is these days?
She has nothing but smiles for
the grocer and the butcher. She
is so chummy, and so easy to
please.
And she is so grateful if the
butcher decides to sell her, as one
of his STEADY customers" a nice
thick steak, or if the grocery man
drags out jar of stlad dressing
he has hidden behind the counter,
out of sight of his hit-and-run
trade.
Mrs. America is certainly cult
waiting good neighbor policy
with her butcher and grocery
man, who are probably wonder
ing just how long it will last.
