IN THE FILES of the DuBarry Sue
i cess Course are thousands upon
thousands of true success stories.
but none more remarkable than
that of Dorothy Mullins of Dan
bury. Connecticut.
Dorothy was "a years old. Only
five feet tall. she weighed 2l5
pounds. Deeply sensitive about her
size. she had long been resigned to
what she thought was her lot in life.
Social affairs were not for her. Eve
nings she just stayed home.
Several times. but always with
lessening hope. Dorothy had tried
reducing diets, but none brought re-
suits. Then she began to hear about
the DuBarry Success Course. She
sent for information. The Course
could be taken at home that was
important; so she enrolled.
DOROTHY was advised first of all
to 60 to her doctor. have thorough
physical examination. tell him what
she planned to do. With his ap-
proval. she started. She lost 8
pounds the first week. 81 pounds in
6 weeks. In six months she went
through the Course four times-lost
a total of 81 pounds, reduced her
bust inches. her waist 9 inches,
her abdomen IL, her hips Ia. Ac-
customed to wearing a size "a dress,
she found she could slip into ID.
In spite of all this weight loss,
Dorothy's skin is smooth, her body
firm. She has learned to care for
her complexion. to arrange her hair
becomingly. to use makeup prop
erly. Starting under great handi-
cap, she has made herself an attrac-
tive woman, with a good figure.

 Mayor Seidenverg stated that the plan seemed to be for the con- struction of a bulkhead approxi- mately HOO feet in length, and extending from the City Building, but not including the area, to Steadman Ave, the bulkhead to

Cover Hurricane Routes
BY JANE EADs

Az NGWSfeuIufeS
WASHINGTON. Through an
arrangement with Mexico, the
u. S. Weather Bureaus hurricane
warning service is being consid-
erably improved.
The hurricane season is at
hand, so this is geid news to resi-
dents along the South Atlantic
and Gulf Coasts, where hurri-
canes are likely to strike IL and
when they blow inland.
The new service is an inn
portant wartime development.
Mexico is permitting US TO use
airfields strategicallY located in
the hurricane area. Our air.
planes may be dispatched to
observe the position and I'M
tensitY of storms and to radio
back all necessary data.
Tie Bureau has a special hlr-
ricane teletype circuit which eon-
meets its offices on the Gulf Coast
from Brownsville, Tex, to Key
West, Fla, and on the So2th At
lartic from Key West to Chariess

of movement.
/. r. Tannehill, principal mete-
orologist of the us. Weather Bu-
reau, says the word, hurricane"
is used as the name for any trop-
zeal cyclone Of the Atlantic
ocean, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean
Sea, Eastern and Southern Pa
cific ocean.
The Weather Bureau describes
the well-developed hurricane as
a vast whirlwind of extraordi-
nary violence. 1t originates over
warm seas not far from the Equa-
tor, where the layer of air near
the surface is laden with mois-
ture.
A hurricane has two mo-
tons; first the rotary motion
of winds about the center.
which becomes more violent as
the storm develops and often
is greater than 100 miles an
hour; and second the forward
motion of the entire storm
area.
1t is important for the mete-
orologist to know the hurricanes
course. There have been some
very irregular movements of hur-
ricanes. A few have described
loops, others have followed sJhat
is called ''hauGin" path.

When British troops tried to

Troops fired smoke bombs

the bombs and threw them back

ragged and many apparently

The situation among hundreds
