Okay, gals, the time has come
to get out that long, long mirror and
take GOOD look! You're going to
hate us for bringing this up, but
holiday spreeing is over-spring's on
its way. Now's the time to start
thinking about what the YOU under
that spring bonnet is going to look
like-not to mention the figure cut
ting you're up against in those new
bathing suits. Don't just sigh and
turn away! We know you've heard
this sort of chatter before-but the
truth is that once in a while a
beauty inventory is a darned good
thing to take. So pull up to a short
stop, and take good look from top
to toe!
First, stand up straight. Sure,
that's what mothers always telling
iyou, too. MISUNDERSTANDING will
tell you that great beauties from
way back have had magnificent car
rage. The Greeks, the Indians, the
Balinese. We know, you're mutter-
ing. "Ah, well, THEY all carried YES
sells around on their heads and HAD
to stand up straight" Well, no
ones suggesting that you do any
thing as extreme as that. but you
can strive for what those gals had
that put 'em down in history. Pull
in-now up tall! Garry yourself
young-and proud Of it! Got that
new stance in life now? Don't you
feel a lot more self confident drawn
up tall that way? Then don't be
a SLOUGH, and slump again!
You don't have to be told that
your smooth, babylike skin is the
symbol of your youth-and the secret
Of whole lot Of your charm. The
tip is to keep it that way! The
minute you spy blemish, take steps.
Do what you can to prevent dry
ness or oiliness-and don't think
that there's Just nothing that you

ought to have. They have no hunger
for it beyond the normal desire for
a taste Of sweets. When a child de-
mands candy throughout the day, is
never happy unless he is chewing,
he is either badly fed or Is in sore
need of medical attention.
In my experience it is mistake
to offer candy as bride, to use it
as reward or withhold it as a
punishment. That makes candy
something extraordinary and it
should be just pleasant item Of
diet, a dessert, little extra touch
to the daily menu that might other
wise become dreary round.
No child should start his school
day by sucking lollypop. He should
have his breakfast of cereal and
orange juice, or other fruit, and go
to school with his mouth rinsed
clean and his teeth polished, his
hands washed. When he goes of
without breakfast, but with nickel
to buy candy at the corner store, he
is off to the worst possible start for
his day.
A child's diet is what he must
depend upon for growth, for energy
to work and play and create growth,
and for health. Candy kept where
it belongs is fine but when it spreads
all over a child's day, it is unspeak-
able

at first try, but stick with it and

like the present and here are two
effective exercises for that prob

No. I. Lie on the floor on your
back with your arms resting on the
floor at your sides. Bend both knees
and place your feet on the floor
with your heels fairly close to your
hips. Lift your hips of the floor,
twist to the left and slap your left
hip down smartly against the floor
Now twist to the right and slap
your right hip against the floor.
Continue, alternating left and right

Candy in Moderation
BY AngeIo Pafri

Children need sweets. II they
have sugar on their cereal Of course
they will need no candy to follow
that meal. But if they eat their
cereal without sugar, which is the
better way, they may have some
thing sweet to follow. Not too much,
but enough to satisfy them.
Fruit is fine food for everybody
but especially so for the children.
1t is better to teach them to eat
their fruit without coatings of sugar
because they get the true flavor of
the fruit. An orange that is ripened
on the tree is taste Of heavenly
flavor. To sugar it is to spoil some
thing precious.
Children who have been carefully
fed and been allowed a limited
amount of candy, often become over
eager to eat it once they get to
school where other children eat 1t
freely. They see these children eat
ing candy before class, during class,
at recess, any time, anywhere, and
they want it, too. They should not
have it, no matter how many others
are eating it. They should have their
share, no more, for their health's
sake.
When children are well fed, their
diets wisely administered, they rare
ly demand more candy than they

No. 2. Another motion for pretty
back hip-line. Lie on the floor on
your back, legs straight and your
arms stretched out on the floor over
head. Raise your trunk and try to
touch your fingers to your toes. Lie
down returning arms to overhead
position and lift your legs, rolling
over SO that your toes touch the
floor behind your head. Continue.
This is like rocking in q rocking
chair except the rock Is more ex-
IRENE.
If you suspect that your back hip
line Is out of proportion and want
to see how 1t stacks up land can 1t
stack up quicklyD with your other
measurements get a tape measure
and measure around the largest part
Of your lower hips. Remember that
there should be about 10 inches
difference between your hips and
your waist and that your hips should
not be more than 2 inches larger
than your bust.
