YOUR HOME
By Francis Ainsworth

think every housewife looks for
ward to warm summer months, don't
YOU? But simmer has always meant
one "bugaboo" for me-dust. It's
nuisance to have clouds of dust
from the driveway spelling the out
side appearance of your house and
causing extra cleaning inside. Sc
was especially happy when our
hardware man told us how to get
rid of this dust.
He told us to use Columbia CAR
cium Chloride on our driveway and
in our basement to hold the moist
ure and bind the dust. It's white
ilaky material that absorbs water
and completely dissolves itself in
the moisture it takes from the air
When these flakes are spread over
dusty surface, they absorb water
from the air and provide clean,
odorless and lasting moisture to
bind dust particles together. It's a
simple method of "dust-proofing'
that has long been used for tennis
courts. Fairgrounds. roads and
streets to get rid of the dust nui-
sance.
You can apply this dust proofing
Yourself either with a special
spreader or a shovel. If you use a
shovel you'll want to rake over the
surface after application, but either
method is simple. Apply Calcium
Chloride after a rain = or hose the
surface first. This makes it stick
better. One application will prob
ably do for the entire summer. or
you may use small amounts once
or twice later.

Our Little Woman

the better are her chances of straight
tening out the legs. The advantage
of this exercise is that it can be in
dulged in many times without having
others know it. Another exercise for
our little woman with bowlegs is to
sit on the floor with her legs STREET
ched out in front of her, leaning
back on her hands. Then she should
raise her hips from the floor, keep
ing her legs stiff as she rotates
them outward She. should hold her.
self up a few moments and then
return hips to floor. It would be
advisable for her to repeat at least
10 or is times morning and night.
To slenderize the "daikon ashi",
3 separate sets of exercises for 8
different parts of the legs are re-
quired, and each exercise has two
parts to it. For "daikon ASH" are
legs that are thick all the way down
from the knees to the ankles.
For thick meaty knees, our little
woman first of all should sit on
the floor, leaning back on her hands.
She should pull her knees up, then
open them and bang them together,
remembering to keep her feet plan
ted together on the floor For the
End part of the exercise, she should
knead the excess fat on the outer
and on the inner side of her knee.
For calves it's a spanking exer-
else. Our Niseiette should again sit
on the floor, leaning back on her
hands. She should draw one knee
up toward her. Then snap it out
straight and down, pulling her toes
toward her as she does. Now the
other one This will bring the calf
down hard on the floor For the End
part of the exercise, she should
cross her legs and again knead the
calves with her hands, back and
forth.
And finally the exercises for the
thick ankles which are actually the
root whereby the shape of "daikon
ASH" is formed First of ALL our
little woman should lie flat on her
back on the floor, pulling both
knees up to her chest and raising her
legs straight up in the air. Then she
should pedal with her ankles only,
as if she were riding a bike. She
must not use her legs, as this is
just for the ankles The latter part
of the exercise consists in her sitting
up and then pulling one knee up

This One Ties
In Swim Suits

TORONTO, Ontario Canada
July 9-Have you got any ties you
don't wear? Perhaps there's cravat
that you got for Christmas that
you wouldn't even hang yourself
with. Every man has, and if you
cont need it, Jack Lee, otherwise
Jack Nakamoto. the "Our Little
Woman" columnist down in London,
Ontario has good use for it.
He's fashioned bathing suits out
of them, not only mems trunks but
women's two piece affairs
Recently. the London Free Press
carried a large cut of two models,
a man and woman, wearing swim
ming apparels made by Jack, taken
by the waterside. And it got quite
notice In fact, the Canadian
Press is reported to be interested
n getting this novel creation as an
idea for an article TO be used in
leading dailies across Canada.
Not only can you wear them. you
can also swim in them without fear.
He gave them the salt water test
to see if the colors run and proved
them to be color-fast.
If you're interested, the trunks
for the man took exactly a dozen
ties, while the women's took Is, 13
for the shorts and for the bra
He admits they weren't all his ties
he picked up unwanted neck chokers
from his friends.
For the trunks, Jack chose mas
culine-looking patterns and shades
to assemble the beach wear. For the
girls. he modelled the apparel with
the buxom look theory in mind
Even the shoe string ties on the bra
and trunks are fashioned of color
full ties.

TO CORRECT DAIKoN-Asm
By JACK NAKAMOTo

In most cases, if our little woman
has bowlegs, it's as obvious as night
and day; and yet, there are some
which are hardly discernible even
to critical eye. It's known that i'm
presarios of show business resort
to some quick and handy guide by
which to choose candidates for a
chorus line. To see II the legs are
straight and shapely, they invariably
ask the girl to close her legs and
if her knees, calves, and ankle bones
touch, it's considered then that she
hasn't a semblance of bowlegged-
ness. While this may be a good cri-
terion also for detecting knock
kneed condition. it doesn't hold good
for thick legs, sometimes more
mockingly termed "daikon ashi".
At first. it's necessary to face the
TACT that bowleggedness doesn't lend
itself readily to improvement through
exercise. It's the curved structure
of the bones rather than the mus
cles around them that cause bow
legs. There's much more hope of
overcoming bowlegs in early life than
there is later on. Braces could be
used with success when our little
woman is still in a growing-up
stage. and if they're prescribed by
bone specialist. However, If she has
an extreme pair of bowlegs, she can
have her legs Strengthened out sue
cessfully by bone surgery. It's some
times claimed that bowleggedness
is brought about if our little woman
as a wee tot has been allowed to
walk or even toddle for hours on end
when the bones of her legs were
still soft and undeveloped.
There are several corrective ex-
ercises which have actually proven
themselves to be beneficial in i'm
proving the bowleg condition. How
ever, it cannot be stressed too highly
that these exercises must be carried
on ever faithfully over a period of
time if our little woman hopes 70
see any improvement.
Here are the two most effective
exercises: Our Niseiette should pull
her legs as close together as possible
whenever she's standing and hold
them that way for as long as she
can. The more she exerts herself

"To these tasks" said the con-
vention, ''the CIO Political Ac-
tion Committee dedicates itself.
These tasks the PAC and the
people of America will do in
November, 1880"
The convention called on
every member of the CIO, with
their families, to register and
vote, and to take part in political
work in every ward, precinct
and block. Every council, inter-
national union and affiliated or
ganization was directed to make
a check of the registration of
its membership.
The CIO-PAC, as now con-
stituted, was directed to con-
tinue to direct the work of po-
litical action and political edu-
cation of the CIO and to service,
advise and coordinate the work
of political action committees of
the state and city bodies.
The convention said also:
"We reaffirm the principle
that the political activity of the
CIO must be independent and
non-partisan, giving support to
the progressive forces in both
major parties and basing its
judgment of candidates on their
records and platforms"
