Aa tAAkH AV AAY ten, it Is usually with outward re. spectful attention but such Inner reservations aS young people make whenever Q member of the older generation is holding forth on what is fitting and proper conduct for the young.
 But girls do care tremendously about conforming to the opinions and standards Of members of their own group-partlcularly those of members of the opposite sex.
 Trouble is, girls are 50 often ig- fiorant of what young men really think about their behavior. If Q girl can attract attention and get herself known, she often hasn't enough perception to know whether or not her attentlon-gettlng meth. ods are good or bad-whether they will bring her Q few dates with Q lot Of different young men or help her find young man who thinks she Is just about all right.
 Just the other day, walking across Q university campus, saw a young girl wearing @ get-up that might have been dreamed up by sur- realist painter. This was it. skye blue corduroy shorts tknee length) |, heavy wool shirt of bold orange, black, and white plaid tthe shirt tails hanging almost to the cuff of the shofts), and knee-length, bright red wool sox.
 Three men students grinned at the outfit after its wearer passed. One shook his head sadly and said to the others, Shell never get a date in that get-up."
 ADMIRATION NOT RIDTCULE
 The same day another co-ed, dressed fin softly-feminine, know ingly-fitted wool dress and high heeled shoes walked out of a cam. pus eating-place. A man student glanced up ,appreciatlvely as she passed, watched her out of sight and then said to his companions who were concentrating on their food: Boy, you just missed some- thing"
 Both girls managed to attract attention--but the first one didn't realize that the kind of attention she was attracting would never get her anywhere.
 If the University of Washington men students who lecture the fresh- men girls can make them see such distinctions, the lectures will be worth more than anything a dozen college deans could tell them.

Stop envying the girl whose mile llon-dollar figure assets are Q lean mid-section and plumbline pos- ture. You can have as enviable O silhouette by building yourself e strong muscular girdle. Muscles that weave powerful bands across your mid-section and stretch three ways like ropes of rubber can be made as strong and sinewy as you want them to be with concentrated ex- ereise.
 For the kind of take, listen to Renee Terry, streamlined CBS acc tress, who dubs her daily series high kicks" tango" and stretch. Before calling your cues, Renee cau- tions that slow motions build strong CT muscles than speedy ones and that regularity is what counts.
 HIGH KICKS. For this one, lie outstretched on your back on the floor with arms raised above your head. All set to kick, swing left leg high, and simultaneously raise your right arm. The trick, says Renee, is to bring both arms and leg together above your body. Now, giving with as much stretch as possible, pull arm and leg back to position Repeat routine, using opposite leg and arm, and alter mating sides to the count of 20.
 TANGO: Take original position, but this time hold arms out to shoulder level. The strategy here, Renee points out, is to dig in your waistline and glue arms to floor. Holding that position, kick your left leg high, hold knee straight, and swing your left foot to the floor near your right hand. Dig ging in your back again, lower your leg to the floor. Now, reach and touch your right foot to the floor near your left hand. Alter nate from side to side. and exer- else to the count of %.
 STRETCH: Lying flat in origi- nal position, turn over on your right side with arms planted above head, and feet together. Toes are pulled just far enough out to be seen.
 With back pushed out at the waistline and tummy pulled in. raise left leg and left arm. Now. bring both together in front of you. With all the stretch you can muster, pull arm and leg back to position. Repeat. turning over to left side, and using opposite arm and leg. Exercise on each side to the count of 20.

WEATHER IS CLEAR, WARM FOR JULY 4
All Events Are Pulled Off Under Good Conditions,
 Except Late Evening

Spark plugged by the splendid weather, the new Uniformed Juneau City Band and several other need ed accessories, Juneau observed the Fourth of July yesterday in a really safe, sane and suspicious celebration.
 Following intermittent showers, including several downpours, the weather cleared early Wednesday evening just in time for the open air concert given by the band in Triangle Place shortly after 8 o'clock.
 The weather remained clear dur ing the night and although clouds appeared early yesterday morning. they disappeared, the sun came out, and by the time of the parade, in- dications were the day was to be warm and clear. It was, and the children's sports and other special features, and the baseball game were pulled off under excellent con- ditiOnS.
 While the Finn horse feature and the bun eating contest were being enjoyed by the crowd at Triangle Place last evening, driz- gle started and continued off and on. but this did not discourage the street dancers and everybody engaged in jitterbugging, etc, en- toying this feature for time then all went to the Teen-Age Club, dancing indoors.
 While hundreds enjoyed the day in the city, scores were on boating or fishing parties, out the high way at summer homes of cabins or on picnics at the various outdoor recreation centers.
 General business for the day was absolutely suspended with the ex- ception of restaurants, cocktail loungs and the taXicab services, as stores, City, Territorial and Federal offices remained closed.

fact that by the time symptoms of
the disease occur it is too late for
curative means to accomplish their
best results and told his listeners
that chest x-ray examination is the
only way of finding tuberculosis in

Reporting that personnel and

be intensive case finding. This will
be accomplished by the operation

over. When this is accomplished
we can determine the exact tuber-

Aware of the Importance of the
soil to the accomplishment of an
effective rural church program, the
executive committee of the Nation
al Fraternal Council of Negro
Churches passed a resolution at its
recent meeting in Memphis, Tenn,
urging rural church to take a more
active interest in the problems of
rural people and to take steps to
encourage proper land use prac-
tees.
The resolution was presented by
President w. r. Banks of Parire
View State College, Paririe View,
Tex, who headed the committee
on agriculture and rural life. Points
brought out in the resolution were
based on a recent study of rural
church by u S. Department of
Agriculture soil technicians.
The study covered 222 rural
churches, AZ were situated in acres
where the land was comparative
ly good, 80 were in areas of poorer
land, and Sc in areas where the soil
was severely eroded and largely
unsuited for cultivated crops.
In the good land area, the
churches had an average member
ship of 100, in the poorer land area,
1872 members, and poorest land, only
105 members. Percentage of attend
ance in all areas was about the
same, but contributions were lower
in the poorer land areas. Annual
conference reports for 1889, 40, and
! Al showed that the churches in the
good land area received an aver
age of $1,135- per year, those in the
poorer land area received 1852 and
in the poores tarea, only 1888. A
mount available for the pastors
serving the area where the land
was poorest was only about S. a
week.
In urging the rural churches to
encourage the farmers to take bet
ter care of their land, the Fraternal
Council of the Churches is joining
hands with other church groups
who have already taken similar
steps.

A minimum wage rate of S245 per
day, a Is cents per day increase
over 1945 rates, has been announced
by the u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture for non-harvest sugarcane
workers in Louisiana this year. The
rate is to be padi by all producers
who apply for payments under the
Sugar Act of 1887.
AS in former years, producers
also must furnish the workers with
out charge the accessories custom
arily supplied them, such as habit
able housing, garden plots with
facilities for cultivation, pasturage
for livestock, and medical atten-
ton.
The Sugar Act requires, among
other conditions of payment to
growers, that all persons employed
on farms in the production, Gull
tivation, or harvest of sugarcane be
paid in full by growers at rates
not less than those determined tC

for a long time modern white flour
has been losing important values
in the milling. In order to have
flour white and with fine keeping
qualities, millers have been remov-
ing the outer coat of the wheat
/ berry and with it about seven
eighths of the thiamine and niacin,
three-fourths of the riboflavin, and
four -fifths of the iron, as well as
some calcium, phosphorus, and some
protein of better quality than the
heart of the grain contains.
Enrichment, OF course, has re-
turned some of these values-the
three B vitamins, thiamine, ribofla-
vim and niacin, as well as iron. But
only IS percent of the flour and
flour products have been enriched.
If present levels of enrichment
are continued, the new 80 percent
flour will have the same values
in B vitamins and iron in addition
to Improved protein quality And
the unenriched 35 percent will have
considerably more thiamine than
the unenriched white flour has
had, because it will not have been
removed in the milling process.
Also, it VIII have more riboflavin,

Although wartime food shortage
sometimes made meal planning diff
flcult, the nutritive value Of the
average civilian diet was higher
In 1945 than before the war or in
the early years of the war, say
food economics of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture.
The improvement in diet was due
partly to the fact the people had
more money to spend, and partly
to the fact that the nation is becom-
ing more NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
However, many people still do not
get enough of the foods that make
for a INTENTIONALLY adequate diet,
according to studies made by the
Departments Bureau of Human Nu-
triton and Home Economics.
The Bureau estimates that if
everyone in the United States were
to follow its moderate-cost food
plan, at least a fifth more milk
would be needed this year than
was consumed las year, about 10
to 20 percent more citrus fruit aj
tomatoes, ana -c.c,n more green
and yellow vegetables.
AT price levels prevalent duri1 s
the latter part o. last year. taa
weekly cost of food Tor family
of four probably would be about
$12 to $14 by the low-cost diet, ana
SIC to $18 by the moderate-cost
plan. Copies of these plans are
available in a bulletin entitled,
